YESTERDAY,S BEAR PANIC,

Features of the Stock Mar1et-The Situa-
tion-An Immense Business.
Prince & Whitely's letter, issued af-
terday, is as follows:
The last cables from London came
strong, with a decidedly better feeling
prevailing both on the eastern and Gu
ban question. Our market opened
strong and higher, with the shorts
scrambling to cover. After the first
half hour prices showed some inclina-
ton to sell off, but later, on a report
that Spain had agreed to the terms
proposed by President Mckinley, and
that they would permit us to feed the
reconcentrados, there was a regular
bear panic, and stocks at one time
showed an advance of from 5 to 10
points over Saturdays closing figures.
In the last half hour, under some lib
eral profit taking, there was reaction
of from 1 to per cent. from the high
est, but closing prices were still any,
where from 8 to s per cent. over Sat-
urday's prices, with a decidedly better
feeling prevailing.
July opened at 49, sold at S23s, rallied
to 841s and closed "a bid.
Cotton was also firmer in sympathy
with gran and stocks. July closed at
500 bid.
Sterling exchange was very weak
actual 4.S01a and 4.S3A.
Steamers arriving over Sunday
brought s4,096,700.
The sensitiveness of the stock mar
ket was fifty demonstrated in to-day's
tradings. 1t is simply a Cuban market
and will be governed by the news on
that subject. The shorts have I'M
doubtedly been routed to-day, and in
two days prices have not only recover
ed to but in many instances are higher
than they were three weeks ago. 1t
is only wise, after so sharp a rally, to
be conservative, but if there is any
truth in the report from Washington,
prices should go considerably higher,
for they are still from 5 to 10 points
lower than on February 10, the date of
the Maine explosion, while the outlook
(barring Cuba) is more favorable
throughout the length and breadth of
the land than ever before in it's his
tory.

POLLS Wonderland Theatre.

The Wonderland show is great.
Standing room only signs were put out
to warn the rush that seats were filled,
but still they insisted on going in, and
they said when the show was over,
that they were glad they went in, even
if they did have to stand up.
The whole show was received with
great warmth. Clifford and HUH, one
of the feature acts, with their great
sketch, "a Chappie's Call" sent the
house into commissions. 1t is uproari-
ously funny from start to finish, and
is enlivened by the "call to arms" and
the baton drill of their clever little
| "coon,'' who does a capital act of this
kind. Cliffords dude song is great and
the negro songs by Miss HUH are the
very best Of that class of popular mel
ody In their cake walk, which sur
passes all imitators, they made a tire
mendous hit.
Miss Kittie Mitchell was received by
an ovation Of applause. Her appear
ance is a picture of charming dainti-
ness and her cute manner is both CO.
quettish and pleasing She sings and
talks her songs, assuring the best en-
phasis on the most striking phrases,
and her dancing is such that it has
fairly won for her the name of THE
Lady Graceful of the Vaudevilles."
Thomas d. DAILY, the baritone, de-
lighted a large number of his New Ha-
ven friends by his fine singing. Others
on the bill are Conroy and Mcdonald,
Gardner and Gilmore, Conroy and Lee
land, Keno and Welsh. Goldin, the ma
gician, and Fields and Salina.
Prices 10 cents and 20 cents; ladies in
the afternoon 10 cents.

Grand Opera House.

The attraction at the Grand last night
was A. l.. Scammon's side Tracked"
a comedy drama in four acts, inter-
spersed with songs, dances and med
leys. The attraction is one Of the best
that has been seen here this season
and is worth twice the price of admis-
sion as 1t is one of the greatest laugh
producers on the road. The piece
abounds in funny situations and thrill
ing climaxes. The story is we'll told by
competent company of clever all
round people. The principal figure in
the piece is a tramp through whose
endeavors the good are rewarded and
the guilty made to suffer. This char
acter was assumed by e. III. Honor,
who gave an excellent character rep
resentation. Mr.. Honnor possesses a
fine physique and handsome face, and
his capable rendition of the everyday
hobo" won for him the hearty APP
plause of the audience. Daisy Chap
lin, as the little lunch room girl, was
excellent in the part of Bessie and
her singing and dancing specialties
We're we'll received. Bidge Huxley, the
female hobo" character was we'll por-
| trayed by Amy Paige, and he grotesque
dance was we'll done. The rest of the
| characters were ably taken by Pearl
| Evelynne, Margaret Bayfield,, Billy
| Bowers, M. Callahan, Frank Hope and
| r. Edgar Vance. The play of "Side
| Tracked was written for laughing
purposes and in this it never fails and
| the performance as whole Is such as
| you do not want to miss. The usual
| matinees to-day and tomorrow, 10c,
15c and 25c; night, Ice to SOC, includ-
ing 100 seats on the lower floor, 10c for
ladies only.
N. S. WOOD.
! The attraction at the Grand opera
house Thursday, Friday and Saturday
will be N. S. Wood in two of his best
plays, and big houses are assured. "Out
in the Streets is a comparatively new
piece and will be presented to our peo-
pie or Friday evening, Friday matt
need and Saturday evening, and Satur-
