A DAY In WALL STREET.
Relief From Currency Bill Must Come
Quickly to snve Money Market
From Being Pinched.

New YORK, March l4.--Therc was
some pressure against the list at times
Tuesday in the stock market, especially
Metropolitan, Sugar, Peoples Gas,
Steel Hoop and the New York city
stocks generally. Missouri Pacific suf-
fered from disappointment over tho
showing made in the annual statement
and Rubber was raided down an ex-
treme 31s. These and other declines
were largely recovered before the close,
and in the final transactions sharp
marking up Of prices showed that the
snorts among the traders were having
difficulty in getting back the stock they
had sold earlier in the day. Offerings Of
stocks on all recessions were i'll fact ex-
tremely light, and there were points of
strength which acted as sustaining fac
tors for the whole market, notably
Third Avenue, the Atchison stocks, New
York Central and Norfolk and Western
preferred.
II was thus made manifest that while
the market waits on developments in
the money market for rise, hol 1ers Of
stocks are not prepared to make conces-
sions to sell. Call money did not COM
mand above per cent and fell to per
cent, but this was probably due to the
cessation of stock market demand as
much as any new supply of funds. The
losses by the banks to the sub. treasury
since last Friday already footed up 49,
284 900, which is more than half the
remaining surplus over the legal re-
quirement held by the banks. 1t is
evident, therefore, that relief from the
operation Of the currency law must
come quickly if it is to prevent pinch
in the money market. A feeling of as
surance was caused by an intimation
from Washington that the first pay
ments ON account of bond premiums in
the refunding operation will be made
from the sub treasures and not from
the government deposits in national
banks. The money market is expected
to show relief from this source more
quickly than from the putting out of
new circulation. A striking feature of
the days events wastthe sharp break in
sterling exchange, demand sterling
yielding q and cables = cent in the
pound.
Bonds continued in good demand and
prices We're firmly held. Total sales,
par value, SO, 435 900. United States 2s
declined 4 and the old As "A in the bid
price.

REJECTED BY ENGLAND.
Salisbury Declined Offer by Bocr Presi-
dents Made Through the
United States.

LONDON, March ID. - the United
States government, at the request of
President Kruger and President Steyn,
offered to the British government its
services as mediator, with the view Of
bringing about peace in South Africa.
Lord Salisbury formally but in a
kindly manner declined.
The representations made to Great
Britain We're so put that they assumed
nothing of desire to intervene, but sim
ply transmitted the communications
made to United States Consul Adelbert
S. Hay, at Pretoria, with the accompany
ing assurances that anything the state
department could do in the interests Of
peace would be gladly undertaken. The
well-known aversion Of the British gov
ernment to any foreign Intervention did
not appear TO have been aroused.
Lord Salisbury made public the fact
that he had refused the proposals Of
peace made by the two presidents to
him, England refusing to recognize the
independence Of the two countries.

forced so high in the market that thorc Is no
profit left to national banks in taking out cir
culation, we may also look for material in
crease In national bank circulation based on
additional deposits of bonds.
National banks are permitted under tho law
10 issue circulation up to an amount equal to
their capital. The total capital Of all national
banks is sJl6,000,00O. There is therefore pos
sibility OF increase in circulation Of 1868 600
although the price Of the new per cent bonds
as already foreshadowed by market quotations
in advance of their issue promises to be so high
that the profit to the banks in taking out cir.
culaton will not be enough to make the In.
crease anything like such possible total.

SLOAN'S AN AUTOCRAT.
New York, March 14.-(Spl) Tod
Sloan is a jockey. That every one
knows, and while it is quite common
place for n jockey, even of the calibrc
of Sloan TO work horses in the morn
ings and do other stable chores, there
is limit 10 that, even though Lord
Of the English pecragc should make
such demands. Tod is to ride as free
lance IN England this year, that is If
he Is granted license by the English
Jockey clubs and Sir Charles Brcsford
will have his services only at certain
times. Tod and Sir Charles Brcsford
are not the best of friends, but in his
own words Tod is better able TO OK
plain the circumstances.
''The reason Bersford and I are not
as sociablc as before Is owing TO his
wishing me to work horses In the
morning like stable boys do in this
country, and refused, as have had
too much work of that kind in this
country. He also wanted me to go
scooting all over the country to every
little one.horse meeting that took
place, and this I did not care to do,
as the travelling Is too severe jumping
from one town to another every cou-
pie OF days, stopping at bum hotels,
md nItttifr tufth
fences. For these reasons | don't sup
pose ] shall ride regularly for Bers,
ford; in fact, do not intend to con.
tract with any one to ride permanent
ly, but be free lance for n season, pick,
ing out the best mounts offered TO
me-"
Tod sails for England today. He is
confident the English Jockey club will
grant him n license, but whether or
not he will ride during the early sea-
son there, he says, depends on his
health and the weather abroad, which
greatly affects him.
"If I get license" says Tod, IT
will ride Il few races, otherwise will
return to New York and get In shape
for the Metropolitan handicap at Nor
rs Park on May 5th.'
Sloan denies that he is financially
embarrassed, and says, although he
lost $l5o,000 last year, he is still easy
so far ns ready money and securities
are concerned.
