NEW YORK. Jan. 13.-The Evening
Posts London financial cablegram says:
Profit taking caused general reaction
in the markets here today. notably in
stocks which have recently risen sharply
Americans, after reaction, closed strong
and the general outlook continued favora-
Bile. The weekly statement of the Bank
of England shows that the coin and bullion
increased f165.O00, although 9675.0OO net
in gold was exported for the week, having
returned from home circulation and from
Scotland. The decrease of a1,6OO,OOO in
other securities shows the maturity marke It
bills held by the bank, the effect of which
is also shown in the decrease of Ell 900, 900
in other deposits. The reserve Increased
9SOO,0 600. Details of the gold movement for
the week show the export of G6OO,00O to
Argentina, of 9100000 to Egypt, and G170OO
to Peru, and the receipt of G60OO from
Paris and of G24,O00 from South Africa

ON CHANGE
What Was Done Yesterday on Wall
Street

NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-The stock market
was under more or less pressure today on
account of the news from Havana. There
was heavy realizing at times, and some
aggressive attacks by the bears A num-
per or large operators recently on the bull
side changed their views and sold stocks
TO-DAY, and the impression on the market
would undoubtedly have been much more
serious had 1t not been for the remarka bic
strength and buoyancy of several of the
Vanderbilts. This strength arrested the
Liquidation and steadied the market, and
the declines afterward in the general list
were not large. even when these stocks
themselves reacted on profit-taking. The
uecllnes at the opening were checked also
py the execution of commission house or
ders, which had accumulated over night
These were the principal causes to neu-
tralize the undoubtedly serious view of
the situation in Havana and its bearing
on the relations between the United States
and Spain which is held in Wall street
Ihere was no news to account for the
buoyancy of the Vanderbilts beyond ru-
mors of an intended change of policy in
administration, looking to the reduction of
operating cost and an increase in divi-
uends. The Changers and the recent spec
ulative favorites. Union Pacific and North
ern Pacific, suffered from proft-taking.
London sold in this market with a view
TO taking profits on yesterdays purchases
or owing TO disquiet over the Havana in
cident. Net changes in prices generally
are on the side of losses
Dealings in bonds continued large

marked gains were shown by some of the
higher grade bonds. Total sales. SO, $50, ,0OO

the most obtrusive feature of the opening

for sale at from 80 to 90hc, against 90ss&
9O12 at the close the day before. There
were substantial reasons for the opening
decline. The Liverpool market was s4d.

still before trading commenced here, the
decline had deepened to loss of lad. %

Argentina was offering wheat very freely.
London also cabled that cargoes on pas
sage were very weak. A rise of Ac per
bushel, that followed fifteen minutes of
free selling was partly due to fear Of COM
plications with Spain. After this business
was very light. The closing quotations
from foreign markets gave Liverpool rest

unchanged for January and 10 centimes
higher for MarchJune; wheat, 10 centimes
lower for January and 10 centimes higher
for March-June. Some buying orders from
members of the bull clique changed the
complexion of the market in the last hour
May had declined to 9Oc, but it was we'll
supported at that figure, not only by the
Letter crowd. but also by shorts. The
market rose to 9Oss190A, closing at 9Olh.

narrow. May closed shade higher.

changed.
