NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, April 23.-To-day the stock market was 'discounting peace" in the lan- guage of brokers. This was done by lifting prices a notch higher. The advance hesitated at the opening, owing to a reactonary ten dency in the London market, following the re- ceipt of the report that the Paris had been captured by the Spanish and the cruiser To- peka sunk in a collision. Wall street was in- credulous as to the capture of the Paris up to the closing of the exchange at noon, and the truth of the laundering of the Topeka not having been established. the market was re- lieved from that cause of depression. On the other hand much made of the capture of another Spanish prize by the cruiser New York There was reported active demands for securities in London. but the buying here for London account not large. prices here ruled above the London parity.

EXPLANATION.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top fig- ures station indicate minimum temperature for the days; those underneath it. If any. the amount of rainfall of melted snow in inches Isobars, or solid lines, connect points of equal air pressure; isotherrns. dotted lines, equal temperature. The word high means high barometric pressure and is usually accompanied by fair weather; Tow" refers to low pres sure and is usually preceded and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains. Lows usually first appear on the Washington coast. When the pressure Is high in the interior and low and south along the coast, rain Is probable; but when the low Is inclosed with isohars of marked curvature rain south of Oregon is inn probable. With high in the vicinity of Idaho and the pressure falling to the Cali fornia coast. warmer weather may be expected In summer and colder weather in winter. The reverse of these conditions will produce an opposite result.
