a large attendance at the plaza con-
cert last night, the first of the season.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, Dec. 13.-The market
yielded to Generalization during the
latter part Of the day and stocks were
thrown over wholesale on the down
grade. Prices went below the low
point OF Monday all around and the
market closed in a highly excited con-
dition. The few rallies that were ef-
fected were due to the hasty taking
or profits by the bears, which were
sufficiently attractive on the day to in
duce the closing out of short accounts
by the professional operators, who per-
sistently sold the market at the higher
level The market made some head
way against the depression during the
early dealings and at one time had
very largely overcome the opening
losses. which were reflections from
the foreign exchanges. The weakness
abroad was due to the growing seri-
BUSINESS OF the situation of the British
campaign in South Africa. London
was a very heavy seller in the New
York market, but its offerings seemed
TO be pretty well absorbed The grang-
ers rose notably above last nights
level and sugar and Brooklyn Rapid
transit also made conspicuous pro-
gress towards recovery from the re-
cent depression. But during the later
part of the day the operators in stock
shut their eyes to everything but
gloomy apprehensions over the future
The violent jump in sterling ex-
change rates both here and at other
points made 1t sufficiently evident that
London was the real seat of trouble
and apprehension was expressed of
future difficulties there. Total sales
today, 1,071,6O0 shares.
