EASTERN MARKETS. south- | & NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. NEW YORK, Jan. 13.—The stock market was under more or less pressure to-day on account ©of the news from Havana. There was heavy realizing at times and some aggressive at- tacks by the bears. A number of large oper- ators recently on the bull side changed thetr views and sold stocks to-day, and the fm- ression on the market would undoubtedly ave been much more serfous had it not been for the remarkable strength and buoyaney of several of the Vanderbilts. This strength ar- Tested the liguldation and steadied the market and the declines afterward on the general list were not large, even when these stocks them- gelves reacted on profit-taking. The declines at the opening were checked also by the execution causes to neutralize the undoubtedly serious view of the situation in Havana and its bear- ing on the relations between the United States and Spain which is held in Wall street. There was no news to account for the buoyancy of the Venderbilts beyond rumors of an intended change of policy in administration, looking to the reduction of operating cost and an increase in_dividen The Grangers and the recent speculative favorites, Union Pacific and North- ern Pacific, suffered from profit-taking. Lon- don scld in’ thie market, with a view to taking profits on yesterday's purchases or owing to disquiet over the Havana incident, was not clear. Net changes in prices generally are on the side of losses. Dealings in Bonds continued large, though in somewhat reduced volume, and marked gains shown by some of the higher-grade Bonds.

Wheel- Tobacco 4630, Electric 3140, LONDON NEW YORK, Jan. 13.—The Evening Post's London financial cablegram says: Profit taking caused a general reaction in the stock mar- kets here to-day, notably in stocks which have recently risen sharply. Americans, after a re- action, closed strong and the general outlook continued favorable. The weekly statement of the Bank of England shows that the coin and bulllon increased £165,000, although £675,000 net in Gold was exported for the week, having returned from home circulation and from Scot- land. The decrease of £1.600,000 in other se- curities shows the maturity market bills held by the bank, the effect of which is also shown in the decrease of £1,000,000 in other deposits. The reserve increased £800,000. Detalls of the Gold movement for the week show the export ) to Argentina, of £100,000 to Egypt | 000 to Peru, and the receipt of £6000 | nd £24.000 from South Africa. N ouncement was made of the £100, d sent yesterday from the Bank of 1y known. 1 m Paris CLOSING STOCKS. | 1% Cht G W . 0% |5t P & Om. [0 ol ISUP M & M So Pacific So Rallway .

CHICAGO, Jan. 13.—Weakness was again the most obtrusive feature of the opening pro- ceedings in the Wheat pit. May was for sale At from %0c to %0%e, against $0XEW%e at the close the day before. There were substantial | reasons for the opening decline. The Liver- | pool market was %d lower to begin with, and a little later and still before trading com- menced here the decline had deepened to a 1083 0f 14d 10 134d per cental. Paris was some- what lower at the ‘opening. The explanation of the extreme weakness at Liverpool was that Argentina was offering Wheat very freely. | London also cabled that cargoes on passage were very weak. A rise of Xc a bushel that followed “fifteen minutes of free selling was partly due to fear of complications with Spain, of commission-house orders which had aceu- mulated over night. These were the principal After this business was very light. The clos- ing quotations from forelgn markets gave Wheat— Jan.

Some buging or- ders from members of the bull clique changed the complexion of the market in the last hour. May had declined to 80c, but it was well sup- ported at that figure, not only by the Leiter crowl, but also by shorts. The market rose to 90%@90%c, closing at S0ige. Corn was firm. The range of prices was narrow. May closed a shade higher. Oats were very dull. May closed unchanged. Provisions were dull, figures showing a heavy increase in packing for the week had a bearish influence. At the close May pork was Tic lower, May lard 7ic lower and May ribs 5ic ower.
