New York, Feb. s.-The stock market succumbed to
The Cuban scare to-day in spite of London's indiifer-
ot a rupture between the United States and Spain.
The strength OF American securities in London was
settlement Of accounts on the exchange. Prices were
bid up sharply there before the opening here, and re-
ties at the opening. Not only was this the case. but
when heavineSs developed here London was a liberal
buyer at the decline. and was a very important factor
in sustaining prices during the forenoon session.
Americans were in demand in other foreign bourses,
and from Frankfort comes the report that they were
the features and the sustaining force Of the market.
Denver & Rio Grande preferred was the favorite with
London. and it was able TO hold a substantial gain to
the close, a conspicuous exception in this respect.
Quite a number of stocks developed aggressive
strength a. one time or another during the dar.
but auctuated feyerishly below that in the final deal
ings. Michigan Central. Northwest. Omaha. Pull
man. Lake Erie e. Western preferred and a few less
conspicuous stocks were at one time over a point
above last nights close. but the gains were practi-
cally eradicated. Early weakness developed In the
Union Pacific stocks. and Norfolk & Western preferred
was keenly affected by proht-taking. Manhattan also
broke IL points early in the trading. but showed a
better tone later. The earlier weakness of the market
had been to a large extent overcome by the strength
in special stocks when the news was received OF the
were induced in the senate. This broke the market
In the final hour. and resulted in the most severe
shaking out since the Maine was sent to Havana.
The covering of shorts made but a feeble rally. and
there was a disposition TO liquidation before the close.
The money market weakened appreciably to-day. call
loans being made at l per cent. Domestic exchange
at some interior points has turned sharply against
New York. and the withdrawal of an additional 10
per cent installment OF the government deposits o. the
Union Pacific payment is due Tomorrow. But these
factors were unavailing to hold the money rate. The
sharp rise in the sterling exchange of /. per cent in
the actual rates and OF !. per cent in the posted rates
is probably attributable directly to the weakening of
the money market. Exchange bills are offered. how
ever. at only u per cent above the demand rate for
delivery in April. and at u per cent above the de-
mand rate for delivery In MAY. This indicates that
the present stiffness Of exchange rates is not expected
to hold.

Dry Goods.

New York. Feb. S.-Unchanged conditions were the
rule in the dry goods market. The usual scarcity OF
mail orders Characterized the day. 1t was a typical
Tuesdays market. The price tone remains firm. but
there is no giving in on the part of buyers, who are
in town in only limited NUMBERS. In woolens, both
in mems wear fabrics and in dressed goods. the
market is firm and fairly active. Recorders have been
frequent and Of moderately good size. New goods
have. on the whole, been we'll taken up by the
buyers with prospects exceedingly brig. for the
heavier buying in the near future. In cotton goods
the market is firm without feature Of the moment in
any grade. Print cloths are quiet without change
in olIotation.
