EASTERN MARKETS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, April 16.-The tone of to-day's stock dealings while dull and depressed, gave no very active indications of apprehension. Ii rather a waiting market, as for some time past. The transactions outisde of operations by professionals were insignificant. Selling by traders found few seekers. and prices conse- quenty yielded very readily. On the other hand, when the professionals turned buyers they found few stocks offering and prices con- sequently equally recovered. Naturally the net results of this kind of juggling from one hand to the other and then back again was not large. though the days price pretty wide. The opening decline was due to sympathy with London, where Americans all showed a heavy tone and where Spanish 4s relapsed after yes terday's recovery closing within Is of the low est price made last Wednesday in the bear raid. European operators had apparently lost their confidence in the efficacy of the reported project for concerted mediation by the powers.
 The active preparations being made by the United States admonished observers that the ties of the Cuban resolution were not expected to interfere with the substance of their action Involving armed intervention, and some slight recover1es in the second hour were due to cov- ering by the shorts, but they were not held and the list showed net declines in nearly ali cases, for the most part confined to fractions. Tobacco absorbed a large part of the deal ings and suffered loss of 9as very heavy offerings, brought out by the recent jump in prices. Sugar, the Changers and Union Pa cihc preferred were the other most active fea- lures, but the market was very narrow.
 The decline of gold from London has raised the discount rate there and stiffened exchange on London at Continental centers but the gold movement to New York continues without signs of abatement. The conditions thus dis closed combined with the large liouidation of indebtedness known to have occurred in the country. give confidence in the ability of the financial fabric to withstand the shock of war Transactions, aside from call loans for money wait on the clearing of the situation and partly also on the expectation of a Govern ment loan. But apprehension of the effect of on money and business is appreciably less than three weeks ago Therefore. while prices between l and points lower than a week ago. they are very substantially above the low point touched just previous to the presenta- ton to Congress of the Maine Board of h.

above the average shipping rates. New York reported that acceptances of wheat in all po- sitions made by cable from there yesterday were the heaviest of the season. practically everything offered being taken. It was evident from this that the belief in war overshadowed everything else in the minds of the foreigners. The opening trades in July were at from s6as4 S5ssc, against S4%@S4sc at the close yesterday For a moment or two the market hesitated Then 1t commenced to advance and for forty five minutes the buying demand was simply enormous. All classes of traders came into the market for wheat. It was not a one-man market; the demand general and broad Not until the price had advanced to S7asc was however, we'll eabove calls. and selling against these privileges, coupled with liberal realizing of a general kind. put a stop to the advance and caused the market to recede slowly to S6ssc. Apparently by this time the demand for wheat had been pretty well satis- fed for although the market reacted to STAG. it was done slowly the latter point not being reached until about 11:30 oc clock.

EXPLANATION.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top ng- ures at station indicate minimum temperature for the days; those underneath 1t. if any. the amount of rainfall or of melted snow in inches and hundredths during the ast twelve hours Isobars CT solid lines, connect points of equal air pressure: isotherms, dotted lines, equal temperature. The word high means high barometric pressure and Is usually accompanied by fair weather: low refers to low pres sure and is usually preceded and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains. Lows usually first appear the Washington coast. When the pressure Is high in the interior and low along the coast, and the isobars extend north and south along the coast. rain is probable but when the low is inclosed with isobars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon Is im- probable. With a 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.

WANTS COMMON SENSE.

French literature wants the, saving element of common sense. Nothing could be more brilliant than Victor Hugo in 1880. His verse flashes like the white plume of Navarro. His was the most famous charge in literature, The courage and brilliancy of Her nani' and "Ruy Bias" are prodigious, but they lack common sense. They conquer win deafening applause. be- wilder men with excitement, but, vic tory won, they have not the aptitude for settling down. The great French literature of the romantic period did not dig foundation, slap on mortar or lay arches in the cellars of it's house after the English fashion.
 Next to Victor Hugo, not counting Goethe, the greatest man of letters Tn Europe of this century Is Sir Walter Scott. Mark the difference between him and Hugo. Scott's poetry and no- vels have a vigorous vitality from his common sense and therefore they are ingrained in the trunk of English lit erature; the fresh sap of their romance quickens every root and adds greenery to every bough. Victor Hugo is pas sionate, imaginative, majestic, power full, eloquent, demagogical, but he does not stand the hard test of squaring with the experience of common mem March Atlantic.

HAY AND FEEDSTUFFS.

The only changes yesterday were an ad- vance in Straw and Oat Hay.
 Alfalfa is on its way from Arizona, but as 1t costs S16 here 1t will not affect the market much. It costs the same to lay the same grade down here from Utah. and as the sup ply from both these quarters will be limited we cannot expect much relief In these direc- tions Nor can Oregon send us much of her Hay, so we may have to depend on our own crop after all. The outlook. therefore. is for fancy prices for the next twelve months. as far as can be seen at present The State never so hard up for Hay before.
