New York, April 6.-The Commercial Advertisers London financial cablegram says:
 The markets here were slack and dull in tone The war news came too late to eX- ercse an influence, but consols were down 5-1G, and the war loan is now at a premium of 1B.
 Americans were very idle and weak throughout the session. It would have been difficult to sell large amounts without a heavy break. There was an attempted rally on New York's opening, but it failed and prices closed at the bottom. The sharpest fall was in Southern Pacific. Lon don is disposed to take profits all around and is nervous lest New York realize on it's favorites. If this does not happen a revival is probable after Easter.
