THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

The investment markets furnish little oppor-
tunity for discussion. inasmuch as they nov
practically suspended business On the 0'ocA
EXCHANGE an insignificant traders market sup
plies barely enough activity to keep the ucKers
moving and If yesterdays transactions meas
ure the amount Of interest taken In wall street
speculation brokers' commissions are at an ex-
tremely low mark In the FIVE hours az trading
transactions amounted TO only S339S shares.
and Of this number few speculative favorites
contributed the greater part. Prices were steady
without important change Sentiment was
cheerful over the prospect Of an early and ex-
pected victorious engagement for the American
feet In Asiatic waters. but no disposition was
shown 10 make other than small trades in the
various stocks dealt in. Final prices. as a rule
gave small net gains as compared with Tues
days closing figures. Northern Pacific issues
were moderately active on reports of better
rate outlook in the Northwest.
Monetary conditions remained unchanged.
Time rates firm at 8 per cent, bankers
continuing TO restrict loans TO customers at the
current rate as a minimum. Withdrawals OF
currency for the interior so far this week have
been moderately heavy. and in the shipments
made a good percentage has been In gold, owing
to the scarcity Of small legal-tender notes. In
London the money market is easier, and 1t Is
not probable that the Bank Of England will
raise its minimum discount rate at the weekly
meeting to-day Large receipts Of gold from
the Continent reported in London, which,
with the absence Of further large gold engage
ments for the United States have materially
eased the money situation at that centre. The
increase in the price Of silver in the last few
days appears 10 be due in part TO the belief
that the demand from India may soon grow
heavier on account Of the improvement IN agri-
cultural conditions there. Exporters of silver
will not at present announce their shipments
on account of apprehension over the war, but
Saturdays official report from the Custom
House will throw some light on the current
movement
The stock market closed with less life than
at the opening. and with total sales at the
smallest figures Of any day in several years
London was not factor in the market. and on
the London Exchange the beginning Of the fort
nightly settlement disclosed no evidence Of the
