THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE THURSDAY FEBRUARY H. 1ses
THE MARKETS.
Wall street Review.

New York, Feb. 16.-Trading was re-
markably feverish on the stock ex-
change today and all interest centered
on the disaster to the Maine, and in the
possible International consequences. IL
cannot be said that the varying phases
of the speculation during the day rep
resented any change of opinion as to
the very grave possibilities with which
the disaster is pregnant. The oc-
casional checks to downward course
or prices were rather the results of a
question in the minds of large opera
tors as to their ability to hold the
market or the best way in which
to effect the liquidation of their hold
ings. Twice during the day very pow
erful support was forthcoming in the
market to check the decline and to
combat the successful raid of the bears.
That there is very large short selling
during the day was evident from the
strength of the rallies caused by the
covering of shorts when the turning
point at the low level was reached.
The support of the bulls no sooner ef-
tected check to the decline than
realizing offers began to come again.
There was an abundant supply Of long
stock fed into the market, and 1t was
evident that the bulls had abandoned
an immediate campaign as hopeless.
The total sales were 535,200 shares.
