YORK STOCK ‘MARKET: NE - NEW YORK, Feb. 25.—To-day's_stock mar- ket was rtrong, but ‘the activity:was largely centered in the leading stocks, such as Sugar, the Grangers, Northern Pacific preferred, and a few others. The most notable strength was | also shown by these stocks. -The total sales.| showed a considerable falling off from the re- cent average and the market lacked breadth, | business being. poorly distributed: London was | 2 seller of stocks: to-day. for the first time in | 4 considerable period. The local market was | as little affected by this Tiovement as it was by persistent buving during the re- cent declines, if a- temporary heaviness at the opening be excepted. The-fall in international stocks early ‘dealings’ was sharp, but | was for only a brief timie. Added to the day’s | net gains the early weakness makes the range of st affected very considerable. Appre- hension over the Cuban question seemed 1o be | in abeyance and tie conrse of the market was continued upward after the opening with the exception of a. siight reaction after noon and scme yielding from the. highest near the close on profit-taking. The fioon reaction was attributed to disappointment because the Su- preme Court refrained from handing down its decision in_the Nebraska maximum freight rate case. The sentiments of Landon and New York cn the Cuban question seemed to be com- pletely reve for the recent disposition in onden to. look confidently for a peaceful s Jution gave way to depression to-day, the de- clines In Spanish 4s, both in London and Paris being. particularly “significant. In Londor. was 74 and In Paris 3 3-32. But it is none the less highly significant that the simultaneous decline in stock prices in London and the rise .in New York were accompanied by a stiffening of money rates in London and a notably easier one in New York. Call loans were made as low as 132 per cent here to-day, presumably in re- sponse to the gold shipments, $1,000,000 addi- tional being announced. There is talk that efforts will be made to have the remaining Government deposits_of the Union Pacific money_left in New York banks for the pres- ent. The amount of these deposits stili re- maining in_the New York banks is estimated at §15,000,000. The day's net gains in active stocks range up to 2 per cent and in a few cases over that, Sugar gaining 4 points. The bond market was not active to-day and ehowed early depression, but recovered in sym- pathy with the strength in stocks. Totat sales, §2 400,000. U.

Opening prices in July were about 1c higher than Saturday’s closing, ranging from 8% to $9%¢, while May was %@%c higher at §1 03@1 03%. A temporarydip followed. There was a good deal of realii.g by people who were satisfied with. the profits shown in the opening advance, and_this selling sent the price of July to $9c and May to $1 02%@1 02%. Then. the real strength of the market was shown. -As soon as the first pressure of sell- ing was removed prices began (o advance at once, shorts, big_and little, coming into the market to cover their iines, and for two hours prices moved upward slowly but steadily. At the end of that time May had -advanced to | $104% and July to S0%c. This strenkth was | Que mostly to news from Liverpool. That inarket was exceptionally strong, showing %@ 5d advance at 1:3 p. m., later cables record- ing even better prices. After advancing to $1 053 for May and e for July the demand was satisfled. During the last half hour or so profit taking was indulged in sufficlent volume to send prices down to $1 4% for May and $9%@89%c for July by closing time.
