THE MARKET CLOSED DULL
Business Transacted on Very
Limited Scale.
The Forthcoming Government Loan
the Important Feature of
The Day.

New York. April 27.-At meeting held
at the sub-Treasury this afternoon secre-
tary Gage discussed with a Number of
bankers the question as TO the best means
for floating a new Government loan to
provide for the expenses of the Spanish
war. CoincidentaIly the further question
of the position of the New York banks
supply of legal tender notes was also con-
sidered. According to Saturdays bank
statement, the associated banks hold only
SO, 600 Goo of legal tender notes, and this
comparatively small amount was unequal
ly distributed. The specie holdings of the
banks amounted to $155, 900, 600 a month
ago the banks held $67, GOO, ,OO0 in legal tend
ers and $136 OO,OOO in specie. In two
months the reduction in legal tender
holdings appears IS $33, 100000.
The reduction reflects currency ship
ments to the interior and the Withdrawals
by savings banks and other depositors
which may be ultimately referred TO the
preparations making by individuals and
institutions to subscribe for a new Gov
ernment loan and also to the general un-
easiness attending the events of the past
ten weeks.
The bank settlements at the clearing
house are now made almost exclusively in
gold, and it would appear that the ques-
ton of an adequate supply of currency
may soon become a pressing one.
Congress has not as yet authorized
new loan, and the evidences of renewed
aggressiVeness on the part of the silver
advocates at Washington have been
among the recent disturbing features Of
the situation 1t is hardly conceivable
that in the presence of actual war the
free coinage advocates will advance their
hobby to the embarrassment of the Gov
ernment, though that is a point that re-
mains to be seen.
Aside from the advices bearing upon
the progress of the war. the discussion of
the forthcoming loan of the Government
was the most important feature of the
day. number of really interesting state
ments of traffic returns were reported,
among them the St. Paul's March state
ment, but they received scant attention
The stock market was at a practical
standstil today. Its tone was firm For
the first time in number of days the
lead set by London was ignored That
quarter furnished a lower range of prices
and also sent on selling orders here in
some stocks. Buying orders said to be
for continental account, were noted in
Northern Pacific which was conspicuous
ly firm. Business was upon an exceeding
ly limited scale elsewhere, st. Paul Bur
Iington and Union Pacific preferred fur
nishing a considerable portion of the
small total transactions.
The market closed very dull, with only
small fractional changes in prices for
the day.

LIEUT.. R0WAN'S BOLD STEP.
Discussed by Gen. Miles and Senior
4ueSada.

Senor Quesada, charge d'affaires of
the Cuban legation; Brig. Gen. Nunez
and Lieut. Artaga, of the Cuban army,
had an important conference with Gen.
Miles yesterday afternoon.
Plans for the cooperation of the Amer
lean and Cuban forces were discussed.
The conference lasted more than an hour,
and after it's conclusion both Gen. Miles
and the Cuban conferees were very rett-
cent about the matters considered.
1t is semi-officially learned that the
daring feat of Lieut.. Andrew S. Rowan.
of the Nineteenth United States Infantry,
in landing near Santiago several days
ago was made as the result of former
conference between Gen. Miles and the
Cuban representatives.
The necessary papers for the passing of
Lieut.. Rowan through Cuban lines are
understood to have been furnished the
War Department by the Cuban authori-
ties. 1t is also stated that the Cuban met
Lieut.. Rowan with a sail boat not far
from the shore, and transferred him from
the American torpedo boat to Santiago.
There he was met by Cuban guides and
Immediately started for the camp of Gen.
Garcia. The plan, as first conceived, was
to make landings at both Santiago, and
port on the southern coast of Cuba, prob
ably Paqua, in order to communicate with
both Gems. Gomez and Garcia. 1t is now
believed that the second landing will not
be attempted as the object in view will
have been attained when Lieut.. Rowan
reaches Gen. Garcia.
Lieut.. Rowan carries with him a map of
the Island of Cuba prepared by the Amer
lean Government after recent Spanish
surveys He also speaks Spanish, and,
with the assistance of emissaries. is eX-
pected to bring about juncture between
the American and Cuban forces. The
idea is TO ship arms and ammunition to
the Cubans. so that they will be able to
make a forward move on Havana with
the American army.
Senior Quesada in an interview with a
reporter of The Times in regard to his
conference with Gen. Miles, said that they
exchanged views on the manner of con-
Quoting the campaign in Cuba. Lieut. Ar
tiaga, an officer in the Saya Cavalry Reg
iment, of the Cuban army, was also pres
ent and explained the situation in Pinar
del Rio to Gen. Miles.

Key West, Fla, April 27.-The little

last night to run into Cardenas harbor
under the guns of the Terror. The moni-
tor fired small shot across her bow and
hove her to. A prize crew was put

THE
Income Life Policy
The MUTUAL LIFE
Insurance Go. Of New York

obviates the objections some
times made to the payment
of a yearly premium during
ones life. Under this CON
tract the insured pays for his
insurance in ten, fifteen or
twenty such annual pay
ments, thus reducing to a
minimum the possible incon-
venience attendant upon the
payment of dues, while in a
space of time far shorter
than under the usual methods
he secures fully paid-up a
contract of unusual value.
Should death occur during
this so called distribution
period, the face value of the
policy becomes payable at
once, while at the end of the
period, the insured surviv-
ing, the Company offers any
one of the following valu-
able options of settlement or
continuance:
(I) The entire reserve and
accumulated surplus may be
drawn out III cash; or
(2) This surplus may be
drawn in cash, the face Of the
policy being continued as
insurance fully paid-up, to
participate in the annual divi-
dends of the Company; or
81 The face value of the
policy may be increased by
the surplus under it, and
paid-up insurance be issued
on this total, the same TO
share in all dividends; or
(4 An annuity may be
purchased with the surplus,
while the original policy be
retained as paid-up insurance
