vanced and Top Figures Were
Reached-Low Stocks Taken Up.
New York. Feb. 6-The stock prices
were extremely variable today. but ended
with only fractional net changes, the
majority of which were upward Many
conflicting rumors reached the street as
to the probabilities of confirmation or re-
lection of the peace treaty. and these
were instrumental in staying values. The
first effect of the uprising at Manila was
discouraSing. STOCKS opened below Lon
don parity and there were soon material
declines in a number OF cases. LONDON
sold about loo shares of stock. Traders
bought on the decline and prices i'm
prov ed. Although dealings were much
contracted, compared with recent aver
ages. prices rose above Saturdays clos
ing. Houses with Washington connec-
tons were watched narrowly. with view
or getting some Intlmatlon by their zeal
inSs as TO the treaty's chances, but no
decided tendency one way or the otner
could be detected. Toward midday the
market again worked upward, with minor
periods OF depression, but gradually top
ngureS were generally reached. The i'm
preston prevailed in some quarters that
the outburst of the Filipinos assured the
treatyS ratification, and on the theory
that settlement of the uncertainty would
be beneficial there was buying OF stocks.
On the other hand, many decided to re-
duce their commitments over night as q
precautionary measure, and these con-
tending interests gave the market its ap-
pearance of irregularH-y. The feverishness
which prevailed in the early dealings in
q measure gradually disappeared as the
day wore on, and the middle and low
priced stocks sympath1zed in the adVanc-
ing tendency of gilt-edged stocks. In the
final dealings, there were slight recess
sionS from the best price.
The bond market showed marked heavi-
ness in the early transactions, but later
improved in spots, closing irregular. Total
