NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, March 22-Oferings to sell were not heavy in to-day's stock market cept in a few stocks and intermittently. But the buying demand at such low ebb that even the desultory offerings which were drib- bled upon the market drove prices downward almost continuously. The result is sren in net losses of between and points in great many of the standard railroad stocks and lead ing industrial specialties and of over three points in the local traction specialties. During the morning session there were evidences of an attempt to support prices in a few stocks. due to the efforts of large operator recently returned to the street. There also exuen- sive covering by another of the largest opera tors in the street who has recently been C per sistent seller. The slightest indication of rise in prices brought out such heavy offerings all through the list that the half formed pur- pose apparent to bid up prices for q . rest Of the day abandoned And apparently fhe burst of animation in the final hour was due to considerable short selling as there was n tendency to rally on covering just before he close, but this rally was so feeble that the covering movement was given and prices fell away to about the lowest at the close, The great bulk of dealings was in the grangers. Union Pacific preferred, Sugar and the local traction stocks. The railroad stocks a.- fected by the reports of the blizzard in the West. Sugar continued depressed on the be- lief that the company was on the verge of a war for supremacy in the trade. But the shad- ow of the market was the development of the Governments Cuban policy, in which all cir cles feel certain crisis Is imminent. Evidently no one wants to buy stocks until this question is settled. Another feature of the day was a further announcement of gold engage ment for import and concurrent easing off in exchange rates, It was felt yesterday that the gold movement had probably come to end for the present, and this was believed to be due to a prospect of easier money rates. now looked upon with favor by the speculative community. According to this reasoning the resumption to-day of the gold movement might be regarded as an unfayorable factor, though the further influx of gold must be for easier money. although 1t is not the index that easy conditions have already arrived.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, March 22.-Wheat opened very firm, though quiet and with advances In everything. July started asc higher at S511@ s55sc and May A@hc higher at s1 o591 0514. The cold wave predicted Monday had spread far south as Kansas. with freezing tempera- ture in many localities The weather bureau predicted that it would spread to Illinois and Missouri and the anxiety this in creased by the high temperatures ruling east of the Missouri River and by the wet condi- tion of the ground. In consequence there was quite a good demand from shorts at the open ing. The strength was especially noticeable in May, as offerings were very scarce in that found in covering even moderate lines. The price of May rose quite rapidly to s1 O7, July in the meantime advancing to S5Bc. At those figures there freer realization by longs who had taken property the recent decline and who seized the opportunity of making good profits and prices slowly eased off, May to s1 o614 and July to S5asc. Liverpool showed no change at the opening, but closed slightly lower. After the decline mentioned the mar ket became exceptionally dull for time. but about Il o'clock became strong again some unfavorable news regarding the California crop. Heavy frosts reported in that State with great injury to the crop, which started buying again and prices advanced to the former high marks. Selling against
 calls caused another reaction, July declin- ing by noon to S5tzQS5asc. The dullness of trade was caused mainly by the seriousness of Wash ington reports in regard to the Cuban stua- tion. and the resulting disinclfnation of traders
