NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-The deolins
in our stocks which occurred during
the final hour on Saturday was contin-
ued in todays early London market.
Prices went below New Yorks clos
ings of last week before our market
started business. and opening prices
here were, in many stocks, one-half
to three-fourths points under Satur-
days finals. But this very generally
exhausted the positive downward ten
dency for the day. A few active
stocks, like Union Pacific and Steel,
made further fractional decline, but
this was rather quickly recovered and
the market during the greater
part of the day, though irregular, was
steady. ST. Paul stock in particular
recovered in the afternoon to Satur-
days closing market; elsewhere there
were both net advances and net de-

was some fractional, weakness just be-
fore the close.

THE CLEVELAND'S
VISIT TO MANILA

MANILA, March 23-The good ship
Cleveland swung into the stream at
4 o'clock yesterday afternoon after a
stay of three days in Manila with
party of FIVE hundred round the
world tourists, and cleared for Singa-
pore, the next stop of the big vessel
on her voyage to New York.
During their stay in Manila the
tourists took possession of the city
and made themselves perfectly at
home. The absence of program
of entertainment, which would have
claimed much of their time, was Ia
vorably commented upon by many of
them, who said they were grateful not
only for the welcome Manila extended
them, but for the absence of the fuss
and hustle of constantly attending
committees.
Hardy place in the old or new
city was not visited by the tourists.
In every kind of vehicle they made
excursions through the town and into
the outlying districts, and on every
hand were heard expressions of sur
prise and pleasure at the many unique
spectacles they saw.

airy has been making a determined ef-

naming outlaw bands which have
been quite active of late.
