such n tamo proceeding" as talking, he
assaulted one of the bystanders, but
only succeeded In being rather roughly
handled for his trouble, Then John

from a distance In a most lurid and
threatening manner. Special Ofllcer
Hrennan happened along about that
time and placed tho unruly youth under

New York, March 21. The only fea
ture discernible in today's stock mar
ket was its dullness. This dullness
was the exact reflection, however, of
the doubt and hesitation which, prevail
in all financial circles over the next
probable development In the Cuban
question. Apparently there was a lim
ited volume of Bales for short account
at the opening which resulted In sharp
declines to practically the low point
of the day. There were lower prices
made in some few stocks later In the
aimless drifting of the market. Busi
ness was, however, almost stagnant
after the opening until near tho close
when there was a sharp rally In prlcee
apparently due to the rebuylng of
stocks sold at the opening. There was
no spirit or animation in tho rally
and prices drifted downward again at
the close. There was only a small vol
ume of stocks offering all day, but
the demand was almost nothing and
the result Is that prices are lower all
around, losses reaching a point in some
of the leading specialties. Total sales
were 209,100 shares.
