YEsTERDAY,S STOCK MARKET.

Varying Fluctuations of Price Level
 Reflects Good Deal of Mystification.
 New York, May 2S.-The varying fiuc- tuations Of the price level on the stock exchange to-day reflected a good deal of mystification of the speculative mind. The mystery continued to center around the source of the effective and imposing selling of yesterday. The uncertainty had to, do with the nature of to-day's buying and the question of it's substan- tial motive. It was the general suppe- sition that yesterdays violent declines would have 8 natural supplement to- day in large additional selling orders. It became evident very quickly to-day, however, that neither the impairment of margins nor the nervous feeling aroused by yesterdays weakness had resulted in any considerable accession of the selling pressure.
 Public announcement was made al- most immediately of the suspension of the Merchants Trust company and pro- fessional bear traders followed their in- variable rule of buying stocks to cover short contracts when the bad news which induced the short selling has come out. When the urgent demand from the shorts had been satisfied the scarcity of any other buying became conspicuous and hesitation and uncer- tainty overcame the speculative mind again.
 Immediate news of the day had little to do with the course of prices. An easier tone in the grain markets gave an admonition that yesterdays crop scare was probably overdone, and to- days weather reports from the grain belt were better. But it remains true that the season of hazard to the grow ing crop is to be gone through. with the certainty of many changes and influ- ence from that field of the speculation. The difficulties of the Merchants Trust company have been generally. under

PRINCE OUkHTOMSKY
Says Diplomatic Victory for Russia
But Moral Victory for Japan.

Notwithstanding tho difficult cir
cuf1Stances under which the negotid-
tions commenced. NJ. Witte carried out
his task with the greatest skill and OBJ
tanned from Japan the utmost she wa;
prepared to give. More we expected to
receive. but though ". Witte wrested
out of defeat these advantageous terms,
the moral and vantage rests with Jap
an. She will be recognized in the eyes
OF the East and of Europe as the victor.
and she has acquired predominant
position In Asia, while Russia's prestige
has suffered a corr2sDondingly heavy
blow. However Russia Is only reapin.,
the reward of a war conceived in in
justice and resting on Il policy of ag-
gression toward a weak nation, agains.
which 1 and others warned the govern
ment.
Il was for peace before and have been
ever Since the commencement Of the
War and L rejoice that peace has been
concluded. l have no fear of the re-
suits on the part Of the army. Some of
the men will object to this peace, but
the great mass will be glad of the ter
mination of the war on so honorable a
basi; and will be content to return to
their homes.
1T is impossible to tell what will be
the result of peace on the internal sit
uation. The revolutionary movement
has roots a generation deep and It's
causes are entirely independent of thu
var. which 1t preceded. though its
growth has become fcstered by the
misfortunes of the conflict. This ag1ta-
ton and turmoil will no doubt find an
outlet in the coming elections for the
dounia regardless of tho outcome of tho
war"
In conclusion Prince Oukhtomsky
pays a tribute to President: Roosevelt.

JUSTICE WAS DONE
Is General Sentiment In Russia Over
Outcome of Negotiations.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 30--(335 z. ny
The peace news was received here with
out any manifestations of Joy. The city
shows absolutely no evidence of the re-
ceipt of the tidlngs. 1t can safely be
said, however, that the general feeling
among the more intelligent classes is
that justice Is being done at Portsmouth,
Expressions Of relief are heard that
there Will no further bloodshed but the
'inglorious peace" Is disappointment
to many. The suddenness with which
tho Japanese finally accepted the Rus
sian ultimatum makes may people be-
lieve that the cession Of the island Of
Sakhaljn would have been premature
while a large element OF the people
seems to be of tho opinion that another
trial at arms with IT'S chances of VIC
tory would have been preferable to the
present peace.
The reception of the news here, today,
eign to the masses, who in nonsense
have been in sympathy with it's objects.
The more intelligent classes of the popu-
lation have never shown any capacity
for appreciating the plans or ideals
of the government and seems to have
lost sight of the revelations Of official
corruption discovered in connection with
the Yalu enterprises and as u result Of
the unpreparedness and incapacity of
the army and navy TO como with the
problem and also because they have
been fully occupied at home with the
struggle to obtain d representative gov
ernmeut.
