NEW YORK. Jan. 16-Chiefly because of
the absence of the decisive news that had
been expected this morning from South
Africa the London market was reported
stagnant and the local market opened eX-
ceedingly quiet, and showing very limited
price changes. The laJUeT, however, were
mainly in the direction OF lower level
play in the instances of Sugar Refining
American Steel and Wire, Manhattan and
Metropolitan Street Railway. The changes
in most of the standard railway issues were
limited and Insignificant. The pressure
upon the local traction issues again re-
flected the character of the bids that We're
made yesterday TO the rapid transit COM
mission for the construction OF the under
ground railway.
There was nothing that was new bear
ing upon the more extensive fluctuations
in the industrial quarter or upon other
particular movements in the market. AS
was the case yesterday. active trading was
held in restraint by the common eXpecta-
tiop that a decisive battle in South Africa
is imminent, and there was a general in
disposition TO make new ventures pending
the receipt of information as TO the out
come. The local situation of itself COM
prises nothing of any Importance bearing

THE BASEBALL corFERENCE.

BALTIMORE Nd, Jan. 16-Baltimore' S
hasebaIl enthusiasts are considerably ir-
terested in the conference between Man
ager McGraw, Catchers Clark, Robinson,
and Joe Kelley and Frank Richter, who Is
bestirring his fable about the American
baseball association with which he hopes

smithereens Great secrecy is observed
about everything concerning the confer

an outsider and not one of the promoters
of the new league, but l am looking out
for my own interests. l expect to attend
the New York meeting of the new league

believe the National League next season
will consist of eight clubs"
Captain Wilbert Robinson was as conf
dent as Manager McGraw that there would
be but eight clubs in the league next sea
son. He thinks there need be no fear OF
a failure of financial backing to new
club in Baltimore He also agreed with
McCraw that it was vain delusion to
suppose that the new association would
keep pace with the old, or that it would
respect the reserve rule.
Manager Hanlon promptly declared that
he was totally ignorant of the course of
events, because he did not bother himself
about the matter. He unbosomed himself
as follows:
II have not been informed of what is go
ing on in league councils but still believe
hat next season will again see twelve

sengers who arrived this morning on the

nine merchants and business men of Porto
Rico who are en- route to Washington to
consult with President Mckinley and to
the need of the country.
Mr.. Jorge Finlay, one Of the leading
members of the commission, said that
Porto Rico required moderate laws and
form of government similar to our Ter
ritories, modification of tariff laws, and
general reforms. He said the people
would thrive under the beneficent laws as
established in our Territories and the ex-
tension of the tariff laws to cover Porto
Rico

He was quoted yesterday as stating that
it would be foolish of the stockholders To
expect dividends To be paid out of the sur
plus. Those who believe that the dividend
is actually TO be cut or even passed are OF
the opinion that the Sugar war is TO be
pushed with even greater vigoT. One may
