STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Feb. 1.-THE most impor-
tart fact in connection with tO-day's
stock market was that the heavy liqui-
dation of yesterday was not resumed.
There was aggressive pressure by the
hears at times, but they refraincd from
leaving their contracts open and their
covering before the close brought prices
hack 10 near the high level of the day.
Net gains resulted, fractional for the
most part, but extending to point in
some cases.
Quotations received this morning from
London showed the prices of Ameri-
cams there substantially above the
nrices here last night. burt that simply
meant that declines from yesterday S
London closing had not fully reached
Yesterday afternoons heavy declines
hero after the London exchange had
closed. The buying in London which SER
ved TO sustain prices was on cabled or
,lers from New York and represented
the covering of shorts put out in this
market. The opening here was at OF

emanating from Key West that evl-
dence had been discovered to show that
the Maine had been destroyed by tor
pedo exploded outside the ship. The
selling on this report was quite large
and the level of prices carried SUI"
stantially below last nights close, but
the subsequent rally Indicated that theso
sales were largely by bears who were
not sure of their position In fact the
whole days market reflected a doubtful
frame of mind ON the part of the spec.
ulative public and Il disposition to pur-
sue waiting policy. Some degree Of
speculative interest was doubtless diver
ted to the wheat market. Yesterday
increase in the Burlington dividend ratc,
and the final steps toward the purchase
of the Kansas Pacific by the Union
Pacific reorganization committee
which were quite lost sight of yesterday,
had a favorable effect to-day. There was
large buying to-day of Oregon Short
Line and Oregon Navigation which was
not explained by any definite news am
nouncement.
Minneapolis and st. Louis showed Il
resumption of strength ON buying, said

The most valuable Information
brought by Thrall is OF the forts and
defenses. on the Riena battery. he
says, hundreds OF men are working
night and day in the erection OF sand
parapet. A few small guns In all Of the
batteries have been mounted and ready
for attack. but no big ordnance has been
or will be placed as long as the siege
continues. The people Of Havana are
very restless. and General Blanco has
issued orders for merchants TO decorats
their shops and for bands to play In
the parks, in a hopeless endeavor to
raise the fast dropping spirits OF the
people.
According to Thrall, the majority Of
the people believe the Spanish arms VIII
be successful. misleading kilograms be-
ing posted about the city to foster this
belief. Spaniards state that there are
100 900 soldiers in Havana, but Thrali
says there are actually less than 10000.

Under this heading were extracts
from the remarks recently made by
Edward j. Phelps, former United States
minister TO Great Britain, and who
from legal standpoint expressed the
opinion that the United States was not
justified in going to war with Spain.
These extracts were accompanied by
quotations from alleged pro-Spanish
newspapers printed in America and pro-
Spanish papers published in Great
Britain. Up to the present 1t has been

N..d of a Signal Station.

San Francisco, May 6.-The present
war with Spain has impressed upon the
people of San Francisco the necessity
of a telegraphic cable between this city
and the Farallon islands, which are
located twenty-eight miles west OF the
Golden Gate. A signal station could
give early information of the approach
of a hostile fleet and would be of great
value in time of peace as incoming yes
sells could be sighted much earlier than
is now possible.
