THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

The critical position Of Spanish American af-
fairs keeps stock market trading within narrow
limits. Prices at the opening yesterday were
below Wednesdays closing, and on a small VOL
ume of business ruled irregular throughout the
deg. with last quotations at small net gains In
the more important issues Midday strength
due 10 the covering Of shorts. carried values
about 1Q1ia per cent higher than the opening. but
renewed selling in the last half-hour prevented
material final gains except IN American Tobacco
Stock. report that powerful foreign and do
nestle financial interests would compel Spain
70 sell Cuba and thus prevent war between
Spain and the United States served 10 steady
speculative sentiment. although nobody exhb-
tied disposition TO make ventures IN the mar
kst on that basis Sentiment was also inclined
70 more cheerfulness. owing TO diligently cir
culated bullish interview with a promirz1c spec
uator. who not infrequently takes this meth>d
0: making a market for his stocks
The market was du. and indifferent through
out OF the total dealings the leading specu.
lstive favortes supplied the greater number.
while Of these issues American Tobacco and
Sugar Refining contributed over one-third o.
the entire transactions. The frs.-Eamed stock
was again influenced by manipulation based
upon reports OF trade absorptions favorable to
the trust its price advancing to III and closing
a, E net gain Of 81. per cent The London mar
ist vas weak Spanish per cents suffered
q further decline. and local Government issues
were lower The fact that the Bank OF England
did not make q further increase in lis discount
rate appealed 10 some traders as n confirmation
O, their views that European bankers Go not
expect a declaration Of war. but in the local
money market no such comforting considera-
tons prevailed as rates displayed hardening
yOrC cd
no expectation OF easier conditions. The WITH
drawal of money for the interior was heavy.
At the low level reached in the early trading
professional support appeared, and further op-
erations for the short account were SUSPENDED
Although this support was effective In al
vancine values 1t attracted no new outside buy
ing Leading speculative traders appear anxious
20 absorb the temporary supply OF hoating
stocks on all declines in order 10 endanger the
position Of the short interest manipulation be-
ing fully employed TO give the market an ap-
pcarance Of strength which il does not actually
nossess. The current manipulation in Tobacco
stock as we'll as elsewhere in the list, Is TOO
plain to be mistaken. The debate in the senate
affords respite from an immediate declaration
OF war and traders are not slow TO take adVan-
tage OF the opportunity for bull manipulation
The Stock Exchange ticker was more COMFORT
ting TO the people who maintain that there VIII
he no war. but the better tone OF prices had no
restraining effect upon Wall street banking
preparations for possible emergencies
