NEW YORK STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, April 19.-There are men in Wall street still who believe that not a gun will be fired in war between the United States and Spain. It is difficult to find what they base this assumption on. but they hold it with sufficient tenacity to decline to sell out their holdings in securities and they buy additional securities at any material decline. These buy CTS were in the market at the opening to-day and they sustained prices above the London parity. thus inviting sales from arbitrage houses and on account of many thousand shares of international securities which had been bought in London at the lower prices ruling there. The early declines in London showed a practical abandonment of the hopes or peace and the Spanish As both in London and Paris dropped S12 per cent. This weak moralizing on the Paris Bourse. The support accorded to Americans in New York against the opening here without change in sentiment m London and also in Berlin and later deal ings there witnessed recovery in Americans though the Spanish bonds continued to drop Ihls tendency continued in London even after the close Of the exchange in the trading on the street. IL was tendency that gave color to the belief in certain circles in Wall street that Spain is preparing to relinquish Cuba as count was nevertheless sufficient to effert da clines all through the lists The International stocks led in the trading and nearly all show ed declines Of a point or upward The bear traders were to some extent causing a slight rally from the lowest. There at no time any heavy pressure Of liquidation Dealings were slightly larger than yesterday and were much better distributed. but the market was still very narrow and there was no very big movement in prices.
 Operations in the money market continues much restricted though there Is no apparent lack Of money for call loans on the stock ex- change, loans being made at 2 per cent The tone Of the exchange market was rather firm CT and there were no important engagements or 8oid Tor import Holders Of money in clined to await the decision of the Govern ment q bond issue.
