NEW YORK MARKETS.


NEW YORK, Feb. s.-The stock market
succumbed 10 the Cuban scare today, in
spite OF London's indifference TO the fears
reflected by the New York exchange OF a
rupture between the United States and
Spain. The strength OF American securi
ties in London was partly accounted for by
the progress of the settlement OF accounts
on the exchange. Prices We're bid up there
Sharply before the opening mere, and a
s,mpa;hstie rise in snt,ernationna;is resulted
bat when heaviness developed here London
was liberal buyer at the decline and was
a very important factor IN sustaining prices
during the forenoon session. Americans
were In demand in other foreign bourses.
and from Frankfort comes the report that
they were the features and the sustaining
force of the market. Denver * Rio Grande

to the close. a conspicuous exception In this
respect. Early weakness developed in the
Union Pacific stocks, and Norfolk & West
ern preferred was keenly affected by
profit-taking. The early weakness Of the
market had been 10 a large extent over
come by the strength in special stocks
when the news was received OF the reSo-
luton proposing Intervention In Cuba, in
troduced in the senate. This broke the
final hour and resulted in the most severe
shaking out since the Maine was sent 10
Havana. The covering of shorts made but

NEW YORK, Feb S-The Evening Pests
London financial cahiegram says:
The stock markets here are quiet during
the progress Of the settlement, which
notably in Americans, where the contain
goes are 4l5 points higher. They would be
higher but for the comparative parity of
stocks. After a firm tone during the day
Americans and Grand Trunks closed under
the best. Argentines were lower on the
rise OF the gold premium. Money IN India
is getting very tight again, owing to the
movement OF the crops. The net personal
estate of Walter Burns has been declared
at e194, 01c. 4 sharp advance in Spanish
rates for foreign exchange was a notable
featnre of the day.
