celery compound that its record in the Phila-

The New York Stock Market

New York, February 7.-Today's
market for stocks suffered from the
burden OF realizing sales and from bear
pressure due ITO the recrudescence of
the Cuban scare. There were special
elements of weakness in addition. The
Union Pacific securities were heavy on
account of announced determination of
the government to operate the Kansas
Pacific unde a receivership and to seek
to postpone the sales of THAT property.
The Kansas Pacific cOnsOls opened at
3& per cent, ON strength of this, but
the buying at the decline was very
heavy and aggressive, and r~eassuring
reports were given out that this Sc
curity was not likely to De deprived of
it's right of exchange with the reOr-
ganized Union Pacific securities. This
apparently failed to rally the stocks of
the and they were heavy all
day, the preferred going off alt n
time ia and the common a point. Mis-
souri, Pacific showed a recurrence of
it's recent weakness and declined at
time a point below Saturdays close.
Lake Shore, New York Central, North
ern Pacific preferred and other favor
ties showed the effects of a continual
ton Of profit taking. The coalers and
the grangers were lin the main heavy,
western being an exception.
Northwestern preferred showed a gain
of 31ac yer the last transaction. Quite
a number of stock showed gains at
the opening, but as a rule, subsequent
declines wiped them all out. A few
stocks were conspicuous for very Wig
goriuS movements. Norfolk and West
ern preferred were quite strong all
day and advanced at one time 3$, re-
acting a fraction on p~roft-taking.
Michigan Central also renewed its
interrupted advance and is 1Ac higher
for the day. There were some sharp
gains also in the unusually inactive
priced securities. The feveriSh and UNI
settled conc ition of the local corpora
Itions was noticeable in the closing
dealings.
Although the stock market was not
lacking in activity and interest, the
bond department continued to absorb a
large share of and to Show
great strength. There were five e
arate single transactions in blocks OF
