NEW YORK , May 12. The natural reac
tion from yesterday's buoyant tendehcy In
Wall street was supplemented today by
some positive elements of depression , us
a consequence of which prices generally
ruled below yesterday's level all day. The
speculative world apparently took a rather
serious view of the affair at Cardenas. In
split ! of all assurance that the loss In
curred was trivial from a military stand
point , the shedding of llrst American blood
had a depressing "Influence which no
amount of reasonlnc could destroy. There
was an unsettling of the conviction felt
yesterday that the Spanish Capo Verde
fleet had certainly returned to home
waters. A reaction In Spanish 4s In Lon
don and Paris also dissipated some. , qf the
oppression that their recent advance fore
shadowed u move toward peace by Spain ,
The absence of authoritative reports from
Admiral Sampson und his fleet Induced
some hesitation nmout ; dealers In stocks.
There was In addition a depressed market
for Americans In London before the open

International stocks for London account
during the early trading , It was not sur
prising , In view of nil these conditions , that
some of the recent buyers of stocks should
luivo been Inclined to tnko profit and the
bears should be encouraged to attack the
marki't. Such a stubborn resistance was
shown , however , to the first dip of price ?
that extreme caution was developed about
putting out short contracts. The market
displayed an equal reluctance to advance
with any degree of vigor. Covering by
shorts In the lute dealings overcame u portion
tion of the losses , but declines are n jnolnl
or over in many prominent stocks. Tfiere
were special stocks scattered through the
list thut maintained n show of strength ,
notably Consolidated Gas , which rose buoy.
