" ; 5Iiice the nbove was written the advance In mnpn of the active securItIes dealt in at time ' .i hange has been at least 2 per cent , 111115 iilio. log that the anticipatIon of bad. news Is what scares people niiil riot the ) i-eahtzntton of It. These fOeRhmndOWiflgs have been lucre thnn realIzed In the actual course Of the toclc ninrlret. , anticipntlon went far beyond a. rational discount of the worst possible effects of actual war and the sub- acqtieflt course of tirices nod the present Btrcngth of the market are but thu nt1Ust- muelit of effects arisIng front an over-timid pesstniimn. The marshalling of our mill- tary and naval power , the successes we have already won and the certainty of others tin- mediately luipendlog , arc but revelations of the power of ( lie natIon and Its abIlity to command ( ho respect of the vorld and it Is natural that such demonstrations BhOUld have the cirect O Inspiring confidence In our fitianco as vehl as In our power. The sue- , ccssea of the war , the ProsPect war has t - oencd of au expansion of our commerce amid the elevation of our rank among the leading inzitlons have SUdleiily opened the eyes of our people to a triter conception of the grentiiesa and destiny of the United States ; ' Is stow to catch the in- and \\'ahl street not , , sitratton of these uiicxpcetcd revelations. t .iNo now stops to tnle serIous account of , ' ithe costs of hostilities , rilthmough it Is con- ci1ed that they nra ) ' turn out consIderably 1lnrgcr than was at , flrst antlciiinted ; for , having had a new opportunity of. mcastiriiig ourselves by other great nations , we begin ilto see that a fev hundred mIllions , more or less. counts for relatively little In a. nation 'conceded to be the venlthlcst In the world. 'I our timid reckonings jre'lotms to ( ho war t vo measured our ability to boar military ' .btlrtl1eflS miminly by time standards of our ( civil struggle ; further inquiry has taught rum that whiie , simice ( lint period , our popula- tlon has more tlmnii doubled our wealth has more than quadrupled , It is therefore seen nthmnt ( lila arousing of the dormant energies of the nation may easily prove to be worth far more than it costs , viewed as a means 'of stimulating our people in the struggle of 'international competItion which Is becoming 'so acute to all parts of ( ho world. It begins to be foreseen ( lint this controversy with Spahir vihl prove to be the occasion of a geat national awakening , that will result lit tti extension of our influence nod corn- , merco throughout the world. Such elements these bccoiiiu In ninny ways a reinforce- I I meat of public confldt.nce and instead of art - t resting the operations of finance tend to ,1uickcn and broaden them. The SanIhl war is thus consigned to a econdary idace as a factor in the stock .market. No one now baa any misgivings , ts to the outcome of the struggle ; and hence other nfluonces predominate , such as the unprecodentcdiY favorable condition of our foreign trade , the prosperity of the railroads j1 s ilidicated by thClr continued large earn- lags , tuio etremncly favorable crop outIOol , . antI last but not least the superabundance f money and the constantly lower rates t prevailing , the conipetitlon now being with heaRers and not with borrowers. Time iresent iiosition of finance in this country Is a most extrmlIrdinnry ) one. In the ' iidt of war , the condition of the foreign exchanges is such as to place the money centers of Europe virtually at our mercy. I 'We are permitting balances due to this country. to the amount of probably close ipon $100,000.000 , to remain on temporary loan , and yet arc buying extraordinarily large amounts of our securities held in Eug- land. Germany and Holland.Vltliin a year , we have drawn from Europe fully $100,000- 000 of gold flnl are in a position to draw an equal amount more , If our convenience should so retinire. Our , stock of the yel- .10w metal has reached the highest total In our experience ann for the first time exceeds , the holdings of any oth'r nation. In the face of a heavy military taxation and in irospect of large government borrowings , Wait street is buoyant am ! the lirices of securities are steadily advancing , Such a 1commcurrence of conditions indicative of j financial strength in time presence of an imliportant war has hitherto hardly over be- muon a nation. The war Irospects continue wholly asatir- log anit suggest ( lie probability of Its early successful conclusion. The Spanish fleet on this sub ttie/mtlantic is not onlypinced where it cannot hnrmn us. but where it lutist ulti- t mnately tall into our hands. Should Spain aend out a aecanit fleet to relieve Cervera , its fate at the hands of our three squadrons would be in all , reasonable probability , fore- ileomed. If , Instead , she seiids a squadron to eject Admiral Dewey from Manila bay , : her SUCCeSs , in a naval sense , would ho far from certain , amid Cuba and Porto Rico would I fail into our liaiiils beyond nil question. Turn which way Slatii may. thio same re- stilts awaits it. the ( lefeat of Its fleets. time loss of its territory nnd a liumiliatiig , unqualified - qualified surrender. Castiltan pride is not yet lirepared to concede : ham' durst I'remnler Sagasta as yet confess the unwelcome truth to his infuriated iwotil..j. lhit all European governuients co and nclriiowlt'ilgo the in- jevltablo ; and It may be oxpecteil that the powers which most enjoy Spaimi's conflden.o will , at no distamit ihity , exorcise prcssuye upon the government to accept their inter- , vcntioii in behalf of peace. on conditions I ikCl ) ' to prove aecoptntjio to the United States. In thu meantime , Spain iiiay be expected to inirslic a policy of dilatory evasion of coiitact with Our fleets. in till I hope ofoiuo turn of slicer luck befalling it amiti in ' eiidea'orInE to Create ( lipiomatic 1ituatioii embarrassing to the United States. . it baa sotiglit to inveigle France into mnak. big an tilcgnl bargain for getting the I'ldliii. pines otit of our iiniids ; but , alipareati ) Yraxico Is too wary to be caught by niiy sect dipIoniatI chaff ; aimil mill such tricks must t ntl in ilemnustrimfirig that the Europear powers have too wholesome a respect foi ho $ iower of the United States to enthral theniselvea for Spain's beliefit.'lion wi have captured Cuba antI l'orto Rico completer ! our acquisitions in thu I'huiip aim pilies , timer ; we many ilegotiate for pegequ - iiO peace slould be nveepte which leayc S tins these acquisitions incommipleti. , \Vlieii thin t been accoinphlalieii , we shall huh our selves In the Presence of a set of new hrob tems profoundly affecting time future rein lions aul Interests of tlii republIc 'File reduction In the hank of Emiglani 1 rate of discount from .1 iier cent to :1 : % lie r vomit is iniportant as havIng a bearing 0 : mm itnierlcii securities , as It represents a rc I. turli of ease to the Londoii money mnarice t after the reverse condition for a long ( liii 0 past The effect Is to remove the neccasit ( or the return of American securities , Lao I. domi's continuous selling being inalni caused by the scarcIty of money and th 0 high rate of interest prevailing since Iii 0 ilamik of England advanced its rate to I pe r cent. The favorable cbangu In the mnone ' 1' aarket abroad is iiov likely to bring I 1'a Juropo as n buyer of our securities hc c , - jifer , ThiB , therefore , is a bull factor of .0 - - - . . s mall inienalons in our stock market. The sh ank of England a gold hoi.llngs as recently a s two months ago were C2t.40,0OO , which pli aced the bnnh reserve town to about 34 i cr cent. The geM now in the flank of ng. m ail amounts to 37,200,000 , an increase of n bout $38,000,000 , which puts ip the reserve toE about 473k per cent. For the flank of E ngland to accumulate so much gold In so sh ort a time , vspeIally during a tierlod when th is country was drawing so heavily troni E urope , is a notabh' fact , nail goes to show to he immense increase in the world's output o f gold which Is beginning to tell both in I : iirope and in this country. Last year It' a mounted to over $250,000,000. Tim New Y ork lianks now bout in gold $ t65.000,000- t hem largest amount over held by them ; and to show that these large gold holdings by toU t banks are not sit the expense of the U nited States treasury , it must be stated th at time government now has on hand $180fl 0 00.000 , which is 'ilso correspondingly large. A s flgures make the strongest argument w hat facts can the silver advocates adduce t o meet this ? Who wants 43-cent sliver dol- m rs when there Is so mmmcli gold In sight to h o had for ( lie asking at the counters of the U iiited States treasury and the banks ? As a matter of fact , thcaeinstitutions are now g ratified to have anyone call far ft and trUce it away , as tile ) ' are overburdened with it. If this gold vroductlon continues at the pros- e nt ratio for two or three years more , there 'v iii then be so much of it as to not only c ompletely drown mit the silver advocates , b ut to make thmeni appear absolutely idiotic- a lly silly , especially on their 16 to I ratio b asis. When it is now at least 12 to 1. This s hewing In ( lie estimation of reasonable Pea2 ti le makes silver a dead issue and beyond r esurrectIon. Quite a. large portion of the i ncrease of the thank of England reserves r eally conies from the English colonies and is hew proiluetlon. The bank made a strong b id for it when their gold reserves got down t o a low ebb by agreeing to hay Interest on a ll gold forwarded to tIne bamik durIng tine ( line occupied In Its transportation.

CATTLE-It was time iast day of the week a nd there were ( ltiitO a good many cattle I n the yards , the most of them beeves. t inough tine offerings of stock cattle were l arger than oil some clays. The market on fat cattle not what s ellers like to see. It. was it Saturday , time r eqtmirerncnts of buyers were not apparently Very urgent and they did not seem to career f or 'ery iiinny unless they could get. them at hmrlceS ( hut would make It some object f or carrytimg ( bern over Into next week. The trale itS ft whiolo might be stmrnmed tip as aery slow , dull and upon the whole i minsatisfactory market. Some of the most desirable of the handy little cattle sold Quito readily and in some instances not much lower , but time generiti market , itt addition to being slow , was lower , anid ( ito heavier time cattle the worse they sold. Ver' few cows ttnd lmelfers were on sale , not more than seven or eight loads , anti they brought about the same prices as yesterday. Bulls , stags , etc. , also sold In uloUt the same notches us the day before. Veal calves continue In good demand tt h igh prices. ¶ 4'he cattle market during the w.ek . baa not been all that could ho desiredJ by the sellIng interebtsand still thethbps beOtI It fair sized demand. Infact the demandtat this point inns been such that 'rcii1mavo been better maintained than at the markets - kets further east and such cattili as have gene forward In first hands have generally l est mocey. As to values , heavy cattle huivo suffered a decline of IOtjlSc for ( lie week anti on most days have been slow sellers , especially those with large side brands. handy little cattle , on the other hand , have been good seiiers au the week and prices on that kind are fuily as good as they were at the close of the previous week. Choice lIttle helfers have also held up to about steady prices , but the general m arket on cows and heifers Is 100315c lower than a week ago. So few stockers and feeders have been on sale during the week that it Is rather difilcult to make corn- Parisonni , but it Is noted that some cattle that have been brought in durIng the week have not sold quIte so reacltiy and It might be surmised that if any great number were on sale the market would be a little easier. StIll uchi cattle as have sold have brought 'ery high prices and lirobably as good as l ast week. 11005-Only twice within the space of two montims have hogs been In such large receIpt on a Saturday as they were today. There were 105 fresh loads arid twenty stale offered for sale , which would have honked l arge on the closing tiny or thin week at most any other time , but especially so in view of ( lie present nrnor condition of the market. It would seem as if after such cc break In the market , and after nh the ills- couraging reports that have been sent out from au marlcet lioints that snppers wotmhd h mnivo held back their hogs today , but. for some reason they did not. Possibly time- figured that there mIght be a still further break nnd that. It would be better to suffer I t small loss at time comnicncoment of time d roll thnnm to wait and get. a heavIer loss l atet' on. At army rate tine yards were full of hogs no a Saturday , a condition that Is always unfavorable to the selling Interests , In addition to the large offerings thmere wait ( lie further bear feature 'of lower market - ket at other selling points , with .tho re- m imilt that the market hero opened hOc lower than yesterday mornIng. . few of the best ioruls which just happened to suit comae special orders sold at $4.1004.15 , a agntinat 84.20034.25 for the same kind yes- tertlay mornIng. Time general market on mixed 1oad. however , practically opened 100 lower than yesterday morning , $4.05 being tIme lioptihar prIce offered by the imackerni. As a matter of course , with the market so much lower , erilesomerm were a little backward almout parting with tbeim- holdings at time ilgures named , antI time inaricet was not 'ery active , still time hogs kept soiling amid by 10 o'clock this ynril wore cleared. 'limo market most all time week has been oil thai dowim grnnde , syith no rencttons worthy time name. Time weehc , however. opened with hrices a little Idglmer , hut liege receipts anti it falling off in the active imuyirig of Imrovislonrc caused a hmrcnk on TtneiItty anti 'Vetlnesilay. On 'l'lmtirsday ammd Friday time average of vnitres Wits nut nmmuch altered , but , us already noted , htero wall a drop at the end of the week. Time week eioed with Prices close to 200 lower ( bait ( ho week before arnil ISo lower ( harm on Monday of tue present c'eek , The table of mtveruges given above will sbqw time average drop for each tiny of time week nmnrl at tine same time thmo lmrlces paid on corresrmondinq lays of prevlotiR years.
