 TIIE STOCK MARK E1.
Thursday's Show Ot Strength Dissi-
 pnted Xrsterdny,

Thursday's Show ot Strength Dissi- l patrd Yesterday.
 New York, April 27.-Yesterday's show
 of strength in stocks was dissipated in
 the course of the days trading on the
 exchange. The market opened quite
 generally higher and an attempt was f made to continue the upward rush in
 Pennsylvania and Baltimore and Ohio.
 But the operators for q rise found very soon that the general demand for stocks
 was quite insignificant at the higher
 level of prices. On the contrary, the pressure of realizing sales showed steady increase.
 | Sugar, especially yesterdays urgent demand from the shorts, was decidedly relaxed. The price was run up after the opening to l199s, but the realizing sales from buyers on the recent advance overpowered the stock. It got back once again above last nights close and then fell an extreme Gss, with a feverish and uncertain rally. There was the same absence of authentic news con cerning the stock as on the advance and its movement was due entirely to tech nical causes. The same was true of the general market.
 Some effort was made to combat the reaction by bidding up different stocks. There was show of strength at differ ent periods in the Tobacco stocks the Leather stocks, Brooklyn Transit and New York Central. The opening strength was due in no small part to the buying for London account, which amounted to 25,00O or 3O,00O shares.
 The railroad earnings reported for the day were on the side of reaction. St. Pauls net earnings for March fell off by reason of the high level for operat- ing expenses. But the statement of the Reading company and New Jersey Gen. tral for the same period were distinctly weak. Following the Ontario and West ern statement of yesterday, the reac- tionary tendency in the anthracite group is sufficiently explained.
 The probability of favorable bank statement tomorrow failed to help the market. The gains in cash from interl- or sources are expected to show an in- crease of nearly S2.0O0,00O over last weeks gain from the same source, but, on the other hand, the gains from the treasury by the banks have fallen off almost as much from last week. On yesterdays operations the banks lost to the sub-treasury some $33S,000, and that institution's debit balance at the clear ing house to-day was again below s400,- 900. The decline in the government bond refunding operations has evidently about brought to an end the process of disbursement to the money market by the subtreasury. The weeks gain by the banks in cash is. however, nearly $5, 5,000,000, thus promising an increase in the surplus, even though the loan ex- pansion has been quite liberal.
 No gold was engaged for export to- day. Whether there will be further movement next week is still an open question.
 Railroad bonds held firm to-day, but the volume of business was rather light The total sales par value aggregated $2, 4S5, ,OOO
 United States new fours advanced a in the bid price.

EARLY AFRICAN WAR NEWS
WARREN APPOINTED TO 4 MILL
 TARY GOVERNORSHIP.
Lord Roberts Sends no Word About the Escaping Boers-Another Estimate of the Eoer Strength.


 Escaping Boers--Another Estimate of the Boer Strength.
 London, April 27.-The following dis patch has been received at the war of flee from Lord Roberts:
 "Bloemfontein, April 26-At the re- quest of the high commissioner, War ren has been appointed military gover nor of Griqualand West while that part of the country is in disturbed condi tion."
 This curious dispatch constituted all the war news received up to Z D. m. to- day. The country is eagerly waiting to hear whether General French succeeded in cutting off the retreating Boers; but of his progress there is no word. The military critics of the afternoon news papers differ as to the chances of an- other Paardeberg, but they agree in considering the situation in the Free State eminently satisfactory. They ar que that even if General French is un able to intercept the main Boer forces, he may score considerable success in series of rear-guard actions or the iso- lation of. struggling bodies.
 Lord Roberts peculiar reference to Sir Alfred Milner over Warren's ap- pointment lends itself to the inference that the commanderin- -chief of the British forces in South Africa hardly approves of it, and that the previous re- port that Warren had been recalled was correct, but that he was saved from coming home by the action of the Brit ish high commissioner.
 A dispatch from Lord Roberts, dated Bloemfontein, April 27, gives General Ian Hamilton's report of the British casualties at IsraeI's Poort on April 20. Among those slightly wounded is Colo nel w, B. Otter of Canada,
 General Hamilton reports that the Ca nadians and Marshal's Horse did. par ticularly good service.
 According to dispatch from Louren- 20 Marquee, the latest authentic esti- mates of the Boer forces place them at 30,9O0, of which 13,0O0 are at Kroonstadt 5000 at Fourteen Streams, 6,000 in~ Ma tai, 700 about Mafeking and 1000 at Pretoria, while 250 have been ordered north to intercept General Carrington's force.
 The work of intrenching Pretoria is proceeding.

MT. Wyndham's Answers to Inquiries
 in the House of Commons.
 London, April 27-In the house of commons to-day, as usual, the parlia- mentary secretary of the war office, George Wyndham, was piled with all sorts of war questions, but his replied revealed little. The under secretary said he did not know the name of the officer responsible for the disaster at Sannas Post.
 Regarding the delay in the publication of the Spion Kop dispatches, MT. Wynd- ham asserted that the interval was oc- cuped in considering what action ought to be taken, and in communicating with Lord Roberts as to whether they ought to be published. ss
