THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, March 21.--The only fea-
ture discernible in today's stock mar
ket was it's dullness. This dullness
was the exact reflection, however, of
the doubt and hesitation which prevail
in all financial circles over the next
probable development in the Cuban
question. Apparently there was linn
tied volume of sales for short account
at the opening which resulted in sharp
declines to practically the low point
of the day. There were lower prices
made in some few stocks later in the
aimless drifting of the market. Busi-
ness was, however, almost stagnant
after the opening until near the close
when there was a sharp rally in prices
apparently due to the rebuying of
stocks sold at the opening. There was
no spirit or animation in the rally
and prices drifted downward again at
the close. There was only a small vol
ume of stocks offering all day, but
the demand was almost nothing and
the result is that prices are lower all
around, losses reaching a point in some
of the leading specialties. Total sales
were 209 100 shares.
