MARKET MUCH CALMER
Tendency Toward Recovery and
Sharp Advances.
Hardening Zen dency of Local Money
Market Causes Gold Importation
From London and Paris.

New York, Feb. 25.-Yesterday's Iiqui-
a much calmer but still feverish and un-
certain market Its tendency during the
greater part of the day was toward re-
covery, and sharp advances in certain
stocks indicated a rather oversold condi-
tion of the market.
Foreign houses continued their pur-
cnases in this market, taking on balance
about 10000 shares of various stocks.
Together with the purchases for the same
account made earlier in the week, the
foreign buying resulted in a collapse in
the foreign exchange market, which was
practically demoralized on the general Of
fering of security bills. Importations of
gold from both London and Paris were
announced by several banking houses and
the movement may be expected TO con-
tiuue for some time, in view of the hard
ening tendency of the local money mar

and London.

rates advanced, which was OF greater sig
nificance. A continued demand for cur
rency by interior banks was reported and
it is probable the weeks shipments, to-
gether with the return of the Union Pa
cific balances, will be reflected in large
decrease in cash in the bank statement
tomorrow.
Government bonds We're weak again and
there were sales of fours of 1925 at l Ii
points below yesterdays figures.
Dealers reported increased offerings and
a poor demand.
Spanish bonds were also weak in the
Paris market.
The weakness of Government bonds was
naturally reflected in the outside invest
ment market, which was reported fiat
with the eager inquiries of fortnight
ago absent. The market for the more
speculative issues followed the general
course of the stock market
The trading in the latter was notably
active only for a short time after the
opening of business. Thereafter there
were long periods of dullness, and in the
last hour prices were inclined to sag In
terest in the market was well distributed
with the trading most active in the gran
gers, Union Pacific, Manhattan, New
York Central, and Peoples Gas AL
though the general Spanish-Cuban ques-
tion was offset in marked effect by more
or less technical trading circumstances,
1t still remained the dominant subject of
attention and concern.

GEN. HoUsTON's FAMOUS SWORD.
Surrendered by Santa Anna-WiIl Be
Carried Against Spnin

Dallas, Tex, Feb. 25.-For some time a
story has been going the rounds of the
press to the effect that the sword sur
rendered by Gen. Santa Anna to Gen.
Sam Houston at the battle of San ia
cinto is in the possession of man in
Cincinnati.
Col. a. j. Houston, of Dallas, son of
Gen. Sam Houston. said tonight:
This Cincinnati story is a mistake

man may have a sword once carried by
Santa Anna, but the sword surrendered
to my father by Santa Anna is in pos
session of my family here, and it shall
remain here permanently unless / should
find 1t necessary to carry 1t in defense Of
my country in the prospective war with
SPAIN
The Society of the Daughters of the
Texas Republic recently made an effort to
get possession of the Cincinnati sword
but Col. Houston's statement will set at
