MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Hex lew.
New York, May IS. During the early
dealings at the Stuck Exchange the
market ruled weak. The engagement
of 11,100,000 gold for shipment to Eu
rope, all withdrawn from the sub-treasury,
and the selling for foreign account,
estimated at fully 10.000 shares, due to
the lack of posltlx-e knowledge of the
people on the currency question of the
leading candidate for the Hepubllcan
nomination for the presidency having
depressed prl-es. The loss In the Inter
national Issues was about a point In
Louisville and Nashville. London sold
nearly 10,000 shares of Louisville and
Nashville and St. Paul and local tra
ders sold Manhattan and 'Sugar xvlth
more effect than usual. Manhattan
broke 2 per cent, to ltKH4, the quarterly
statement still exerting an unfavorable
Influence. The talk of a reduction In
dividends on account of cable competi
tion, however, did not reeive general
credence. Sugar xveakened on the re
duction of cent In retlned and on ru
mors of unfavorable developments In
Cuban affairs. A tlrm xvlth Washing
ton connection xvas the most conspicu
ous seller of the stock, xvhlch fell from
to 121. In the afternoon trading
the market displayed more resistance
and there was accordingly a disposi
tion to cover short contracts. Keports
xvere current that congress would ad
journ early In the coming month, and
this, with the comparatively small en
gagements of gold for tomorrow's Eu
roiean steamers, helped to make a lit
tle bullish sentiment. In the afternoon
rally .Manhattan. Sugar, Tobacco, Chi
cago Has and Consolidated Has xvere
prominent. Consolidated (his first de
clined from lfifi to Vtiht, and later rose
to 15ti. The decline In the stock wus
due to a report of the Incorporation of a
new concern called the Nexv York Fuel
and Light company. In the late trad
ing the market, xvhlle dull, was tlrm. the
shorts being the most prominent buyers
Up to the close. Speculation left oh
firm, xvlth prices anywhere from to
per cent higher on the day. Sugar lost
? per cent, and Manhattan "'4 per cent.
The reduction In the price of refined ac
counts for the weakness of sugar cer-
tlllcates. Total sales xvere lL'6,ti59
shares.
