New York. Aug. 1o.-Pretty much all of
yesterdays loss in values was retrieved in
to-day's stock market before the definite
news was received from Washington that
a protocol has been agreed upon between
Secretary Day and M. Csmbon for the
negotiations Of a treaty of peace. But
this news awakened the market to re-
newed activity after a period OF COM
p~srative dullness and some reaction in
prices and carried II to the highest point
of the day. holding it within a small frac-
ton of that point until the close. The
early strength I'm the market was despite
continued doubt as to whether or not
the whole peace movement was endan-
gered by Spanish quibbling.
The I'm Spanish As in Paris
and London gave some ground for APP
prehension. But a recovery in the wheat
market renewed takings of wheat for
foreign account and especially st. Pauls
statement of earnings for the first week
in August, were sunicient to turn the tide
OF sentiment from yesterdays beartsh
disposition and induce shorts to cover.
The st. Paul statement showed an in
crease in earnings over the corresponding
period of last year of $24, 2s7. or the
largest early August earnings In the his
tory OF 01e road with the exception OF
those of 1892. which they nearly approach
ed. The statement is a significant indics-
ton that there has been a sufficient re-
covery in the grain movement after the
decline following the abnormal movement
caused by the Letter deal to supplement
the large current movement of general

to last years high level.

In the afternoons squirt prices were

realizing in the grangers under cover of

and pretty near the top at net gains gen
orally of i and 2 points.
The men of money were perhaps a little
more exncting regarding securities to-
day. Payments into the sub-treasury on
account of the new bonds are large and
government deposits with national banks
do not fully keep pace with the drift OF
currency to New York. which is falling
off. New York exchange at some Of the
important domestic centers having fallen

Business in bonds was comparatively
ight in the early part OF the day. but the
demand increased and prices improved in
the later dealings. Total sales, S3,765 900.
Government bonds were unchanged in
the hid price.

rope would need less of 1t than usual.

similarly impressed and were advising

porarily arrested by the wet weather of a
week ago. These various Influences
changed the markets strength into dem
onstrative weakness before the session

spicuously small. Chicago received l12
