Apropos of the trouble the Shah is
causing at ostend, story is being told
by the Belgian Times of the first visit
of Nasr-ed-Din, the father of the pres
ent monarch, to the King of the Bel
gians at the Chateau de Lacken.
When he saw the Queen surrounded by
her ladies-in-waiting the Shah said to
the King, Your harem, sire?"
The question took the King SO much
by surprise that he did not for mo-
ment reply, and the Shah, taking his
silence for consent, looked critically
along the line and added, mildly but
decidedly: You will have TO renew
it."-London Express.

REVIEW OF MARKETS
FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
Stocks, Money, Exchange, Bonds, Grain,
Cotton, Provisions, Etc.

New York, April 20.-The stock mar
ket continued unsettled and hesitating
to-day under the influence of the I'M
certainty surrounding the iron and steel
issues. The undertone was distinctly
firm, and the early period OF weakness
gave way to slow and irregular up
ward movement, doubtless due in large
part to the demand from the shorts to
cover The rates for loans on stocks
this morning on the floor indicated
that the SHORT interest was quite large.
Inc comparative quiet of the iron and
steel stocks and positive strength at q
number of points, prompted the cover
Ing Of shorts and encouraged what
slight buying for general account there
was. Eager attention was fixed upon
American Steel and Wire all day in
view of the session of The company's
executive committee.
The movement of the stock was fever
ish. the common and preferred often
moving In contrary directions, as
though to cause q feeling of uncertain
ty over developments in the company.
Aside from this confusing manipula-
ton dealing in the stock was apparent
ly largely in the hands OF the room
traders, who circulated many rumors
concerning the executive committee
meeting The committees action was
kept secret until after the, close of the
market.
the background n number of favorable
influences were allowed to have play.
The CoalcrS were all notably strong on
favorable trade reports, the bituminous
coal, as well as the anthracite roads,
sharing in the movement. The local
traction stocks and Sugar moved up
wards in Il decidedly Irregular man
ner. and Texas and Pacific, Canada
Southern, New York Central and Penn
sylvanta were also points of strength.
The good crop weather was q sus-
tanning Influence with the grain-carry-
Ing roads. Rumors still circulated of
new railroad combinations and of pros
poets Of dividends on railroad stocks,
but they have no definite authority and
IN many cases meet with contradiction
The. banks seem assured Of an increase
In cash tomorrow, having gained near
~ S4,oooooo on Sub-Trcasury opera tons
ana over half n million dollars on the
express movement with the interior.
There is rather more mystery than
usual surrounding the item Of loans.
The liquidation In the stock market in
dictates loan contraction, but the de-
Ginning scale of interest has prompted
the banks to place as large loans as
possible. The process of loaning on
sterling collateral. which has proceed
ed during the week, will undoubtedly
be reflected in the statement as it has
been in the sterling market during the
week.
Actual sterling rates advanced 4 and
posted rates Il to-day, and are near
the gold export point. though the ex-
perts are engaged in their usual wran-
Gle as to Just what figure represents
that point. Call money loaned as low
as per cent. to-day
The bond market was less active to-
day, and prices were fairly we'll held.
Total sales, sl.930,000.
United States as coupon declined 4,
and the IS Is in the bid price
The total sales to-day were AGA, 200

New York. April 2o.-Cotton market
opened steady at one point decline to
three points advance. chiefly owing to
uncertain weather conditions in the
South. There was a decided lack of
public speculation. and the market soon
turned weak. There was little, if any,
of the manipulation which has charac-
terized the market for several weeks
past, ard the room traders took the
short side of the account with more
confidence than for some time past.
Long cotton commenced 10 come out
freely, and prices sold off several
points. Accounts from dry goods dis
tricts were not so good; and still later
in the day there was Il change for the
better In weather conditions in the
South. From the best prices of the
morning there was a decline of 2@6
points. There was talk of an early
elimination of the May short interest
as a factor. The market closed quiet
at net advance OF two points to a de-
cline of four points. having rallied par
