Stoeks--The sharp break in prices
In Wall street to-day was due to the
reports that yellow fever had broken
out among the American forces about
break in prices is a demonstration that
there is an enemy in Cuba which is
more feared than the Spanish army.
There was undoubtedly a good deal
Of liquidation induced by the reports,
but there were also the obvious ear
marks of bear raid in the piling up
of all sorts of alarmist rumors. Sew
eral times during the day the bears had
misgivings about their campaign and
started to cover, but as often renewed
selling movement There was an eX-
tensive covering movement In the final
dealings, however, which caused sub
stantial rallies all through the stock list
and the speculative bonds as well. Net
losses of between / and 2 points are
nevertheless very literally sprinkled
all through the list There was an ex-
tensive movement to realize also, in
some of the junior mortgage bonds,
which have been advancing during the
last few days. The reaction in these
was as sharp as in the stock list, but
there was a large absorption at the
decline and an easy rally in most cases.
The Atchison Adjustments which led
in point of activity were an exception,
closing near the lowest. Business con-
tinued very large in the Atchison pre-
ferred stock and it's net loss is less than
the average. There was no attempt
apparently to support the stock, but
the pressure to realize was not severe.
Wall street timidity over the outbreak
of fever in the United States camp
grows out of fear that the disease will
thus gain a foothoid in this country and
interrupt railroad traffic with quaran-
tine. The market was heavy from the
start on London selling based on the
decreased estimates of the government
crop report. The peace rumors, which
carried up Spanish fours sharply, had
10 effect on Americans.

fined to the speculative Junior issues,
