STOCKS AND BONDS

New York. April 11.-There was n
pericd of about fifteen minutes OF ami
mated ealling and quickly dropping prices
on the Stock Exchange to-day after the
reading of the Presidents message to
Congress and some large buying orders
were executed in the last fifteen mlnu-
ties of trading which brought prices up
TO the top level of the day. Net gains
at the close were over n point Tor most
leading stocks. The days results were il
surprise. 1t can scarcely be gainsafu
that they go far to demonstrate thal
very few speculative contracts renamed
to be covered. The buying was largely
by foreign houses and it is said the
purchases We're taken with view 10
selling on the London Exchange to-
morrow. That exchange was closed to-
day. The absence of any specific recon-
mendation in the Presidents massage
for ouSting the Spaniards from Cuba
was taken as bull point. T0day's mar
ket demonstrated that until this cues
ton is decided there is no disposition
TO enter into large operations in securi-
1es. The making of call loans at 4 per
cent Indicated that there is no imme-
diate prospect of easy conditions in the
money market. The Sub-Treasury's bal
ancc of S197 OBS reflected the further
withdrawal Of the Union Pacific payment
which had been left on deposit with New
York banks and which is now being
withdrawn as a set off to the govern
ment's expenditures for defense account
In addition 10 the withdrawal Of govern
ment deposits the movement of currency
to the interior continues to-day in full
