SAY BRIToN WAS INFORMED
GermaRs Contend English Ambassa-
dor Knew of Proposed Pub
Iicity OF Dispatch.

BERLIN Feb 1S.-Referring to the ex-
preston in the London press that the pub
lication Of Dr. Won Holeben's dispatch OF
April 15, 1898, was an unfriendly act
toward Great Britain, the German of1cials
asert that, on the contrary, the British am
bassador here, Sir Frank c. Lascelles, was
informed beforehand that the dispatch was
to be published and was assured that Ger
many meant nothing unfriendly to Great
Britain. but merely wanted to clear its
own record.
Regarding the intimation in the London
papers that Great Britain could make II
unpleasant for Germany by publishing GER
tain documents, the officials here said:
we have nothing to fear. No document
this matter exists which could cause
embarrassment.
The United States ambassador Andrew
d. White. was interviewed on the subject,
but declined to express any opinion, ex-
cept that the line Of conduct revealed on
Germany's part was entirely In accordance
with all that had passed between the For
eign office and the United States embassy
during the Spanish American war.
Mr.. White said:
The German government showed at that
time, not a captious, vexatious neutrality,
but friendly neutrality, evidently ieehne
that the war was inevitable, ana that 10
interfere would be folly.
The Kreuze Zeitung in an inspired note
concerning the Spanish American war con-
troversy, said:
Germany has spoken the last word in the
Lord Pauncefote dispute. This step was
necessary and 1t has fulfilled it's purpose, as
the British attempts to conceal and distori
the facts have now been properly revealed
The Kreuze zeitung thinks that had
Great Britain seen the end It would
have thought twice before acting.
The paper concludes: "The world knows

month. The increase in the imports for the month has resulted in falling off of the trade balance in our favor all together of more than $20,000000, com pared with the previous December. The increase in imports is not regarded as an unfavorable factor at present, as it is made up in part of crude articles for use in manufactures and of pro ducts for which domestic manufactur- CTS are not able to fill all the orders they receive. The large gain by the banks from the sub-treasury and the return flow of currency from the in- terior give assurance of favorable bank return on Saturday, and the heaviness of sterling exchange indicates that no gold will go out this week.

THE STOCK MARK ET.
Turns From n Downward Course and
 Enjoys Rally.

New York, Jan. 15.--The stock mar ket turned from it's recent consistent
 downward course to-day and enjoyed something of rally. The demand was on fairly large scale, but the mar ket showed tendency to fall into in- tense dullness and developed a hesitat- ing tone on the advance. There were a number of reactions during the day.
 The closing was near to the top level, but with the intense dullness and
 wavering tendency, which had devel- oped on previous advances still very manifest The demand from the short interest was palpable influence in the rise. Evidences of support were seen early in the day in some of the stocks which were the chief targets for bear attack, notably in Union Pacific and the trans -continentals. This served to intimidate the bears, although they re- newed their selling on advances, But the fact was manifest that the more urgent selling had been disposed of on previous days, and the efforts of the bears induced little liquidation. A number of incidents aided the bulls in turning the market against their op- ponents. There was a striking demon- stration in Sugar on the strength of the hearing accorded to the advocates of a reduction of duties on Cuban sugars by the ways and means committee of con- gress. The increase in the dividend rate from ? to 3 per cent. on New York and St. Louis second preferred relieved some apprehension that there would be
 
 was not as large as some specuators have claimed to expect The declara- ton revived the rather languishing hopes of increases on other stocks, which were dashed by the maintenance of unchanged rates on Delaware and Hudson and Louisville and Nashville. New York Central developed strength early in the day and had risen to the highest point before the announcement of the new stock issue and the sub- scription rights to stockholders. The price was inclined to sag after the an- nouncement as new bond and capital issues have been in disfavor with spec ulators in the immediate past. The price of the stock has indicated for some time past that rights of some soit were dcCTulilS, dS the directors statement now indicates was the fact. The statement of the country's foreign trade for December was regarded as favorable. The heavy decline in eX- ports of breadstuffs, principally of , corn probably, was expected. The de- cline in this item accounts for prac- tically the whole of the decrease in the | total exports for the month, which was about $S,S00,000 compared with the pre- vious December. This shows that the declining tendency in the exports of l ctured products has been ar- l rested, as was first indicated last

Of the Stock Market Letter of J. l., Me
 Lean &s Go.

Lean &z Go.
 New York, Jan. 15.--Despite London manipulation evidently to promote a panicky feeling here, prices hardened excepting as regards Peoples Gas and New York Central. The gas stock was affected by Judge Grosscup's adverse decision and New York Central by it's coming stock increase.
 It is evidently their intention to make as large short interest as pos sible to help them advance prices when the time comes, and that time is cer- tainly near at hand.
 Our advice to those who are long of stocks is to hold them and to those who are out of the market to begin to buy now, and buy more on a scale down.
 The Steel stocks look especially invit- ing at the present; so also Union Pa ciflc common and Atchison.
 Chicago: Further liquidation took place in grains to-day and corn was for a time quite weak but wheat was we'll supported just above 80 and the liquida- tion is evidently about over The large export demand for wheat continues, and higher prices for this commodity are freely predicted.
