NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. NEW YORK, April 6.—There is a strong con- viction in Wall street that delay in the send- ing in of the President's message is favorable to the avoidance of war. This was clearly manifested In the response of the market to the early rumor from abroad that the President's message would not go in to-day, and to the later authorized announcement from Washing- ton that it would be withheld until Monday. The disposition of the message was the cen- tral point about which the whole market turned all day. The assertions of the newspapers this morning that it would without question go In tooday, and that it would declare for forcible intervention caused the decline at the open- ing, opening prices in almost all cases being the lowest of the day. The resistance to the decline and the quick recovery were a surprise to outside observers, who wore prepared for something like a panic on the exchange. The recovery was due to cabled reports of a rumor in London that the message would not come in until next Thursday. This rumor was quickly discredited by statements from Wash- ington, and the market drifted to a lower plane again, but not to the lowest. The stag- hation of the trading during this period of waiting was almost absolute and the sudden outbreak of activity when the later authentic reports came from Washington that the mes- sage would be delayed until Monday was in strong contrast. It was evident that the con- clusion was leaped to that the withholding of the message was due to a reception of further | proposals from Spaln or to movements for try sterday voted to | Srny shares, includin Burlington, 23 The fall | Gt Nor pref .

The violent ad- vance was checked and reaction set in when it was stated that the delay was due to ad- vices from Consul-General Lee that he would | | not be able to securc the departure in safety | of Americans from Cuba before next Monday.
