NEW YORK, February 25.-Com-
mercial Advertisers London financial
cablegram:
Business on the markets here was
impeded to-day by the approach of to-
morrow's settlement. The news of
Col. Plumer's victory over Gen. DeWet
served to strengthen Kaffirs, but fail
tivity and had little effect on the
other departments.
Americans advanced quickly in the
early dealings on the favorable bank
statement published in New York last
Saturday but although New York at
first accepted their prices, in the sub
sequent transactions the influence of
New York was adverse. Union Pa
cities especially weakening. In the
street, however, there was a recov-
cry all round, Influenced by the re-
ceipts of better quotations from Lon
don. The bank bought E10,00 gold
in bars and received 912. coo from
Australia. Money was scarce but the
bank renewed large loans to the mar
ket and lent u considerable sum In adj
dition. 1t also discounted heavily,
causing a big market Indebtedness.

cheapening of money rates as heavy
calls are due after the coming settle
