REVIEW OF THE STOCK MARKET.
Inst Weeks Dullness Gives Way to
Active Speculation.


NEW YORK, May 6.-Bradstreets Finan-
cial Review tomorrow will say:
Last weeks extreme dullness has given
place to an active speculation, the feature
of which was the renewed public buying OF
securities. The movement began on sat
urday, when under professional leadership
the market showed considerable strength,
and on Monday, when the news of Commo-
dore Dewey's victory at Manila was re-
ceived. there was an influx Of buying, both
for long and short account
The movement was checked on Sunday
more by the fact that the next day was q
holiday than by the absence Of further in
formation from Manila or by the lack o.
evidence to substantiate the belief that
Spain had accepted the lesson Of its defeat
and was willing to end the war.
1t may also be noted that professional
interests that bought stocks heavily dur
ing the recent depression, either because
thoy were cheap or to support their own
specalties. sold considerable amounts and
that London also marketed considerable
holdings on Tuesday.
On Wednesday London contributed to the
renewal Of the rise by taking a round
amount of stocks, while the local shorts
covered to such an extent that the borrow
ing demand for stocks for delivery was ma
terially reduced. and commission houses in
most cases reported decided accession to
| outside buying orders.
Increased activity was accompanied by a
| general advance throughout the list, the
only tangible reason, apart from the grow
| Ing belief that Spain Is clearly outmatched
by our navy. being the evidence that its
internal political and financial troubles rem
der further struggle on its part absolutely
hopeless.
| The fall of Spanish As to below 30, the
rise OF the gold premium at Madrid from &C
to ia and the run on the Bank Of Spain
| and other institutions were considered q
| justification of this view.
