Yesterday’s New York stock market was strong almost without variation, but in an irregular degree in different parts of the list. Realizing sales at one time depressed the average price a fraction, below Thursday’s close, the extreme net decline being shown by Louisville, %; New T Jersey Central, %; Missouri Pacific, %, and Northern Pacific preferred, %. In aduition there were some sharp declines from the best before the closes The net gains for the day all through the list are the more noticeable in view of these facts. There was little news of a special character beyond what was ccnflrmatory of facts already known. Much importance continues to be attached to the declaration of the extra dividend by Bt. Paul yesterday and the good influence of this was manifest in the improved buying for London account to-day. It helped to keep the price of St. Paul firm all day and advanced Union Pacific 1%. Burlington, although it closed % under the best, shows a net gain of over a point, and Rock Island did as well. Omaha advanced at one time nearly three points and its allied line, Northwestern, 2%, falling back somewhat at the close. Burlington’s crossing the par line was greeted with enthusiasm. In the Southwestern group, Kansas & Texas preferred led with, an extreme advance of 2% and a net gain of 1%. In the Vanderbilt gioup, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis gained 1% and the others less amounts, except Chesapeake & Ohio, which continued exceptionally heavy. The large •arnings reported and in prospect from the enormous movement of grain had to do with the strength of all these stocks. The coalers ali showed weakness during most of the day on account of the disappointing dullness which continues in the anthracite trade. This encouraged some short selling and r. sharp rise of 2*4 points in New Jersey Central in the afternoon indicated the distress of the shorts and rallied the other coalers. Seme activity was displayed in the bituminous coal roads, Wheeling & Lake Erie preferred gaining over two points. The feverish fluctuations in Manhattan also were due to the urgent demand of the short interest, the price rising at one time over five points. The heaviness In Louisville was probably due to a recurrence of apprehension over yellow fever possibilities. In the list of specialties notable gains were registered by Western Union, Brooklyn Transit on large increase of traffic, National Lead, Leather preferred, Brooklyn Union Gas (4 per cent), Spirits preferred, Consolidated Gas (6), Linseed Oil and Orefon Navigation (4%.) On the other hand ugar. Tobacco, Long Island, Laclede Gas, Btaroh second preferred. Quicksilver preferred and Rubber preferred all displayed •weakness. „ . ~ In the bond market the features were the Central of Georgia incomes, the firsts advancing 6% points and reacting 5%, and the seconds advancing 2% and reacting 1%.

Confirmatory Dispatches Received at Madrid, and Generui Wejler Requested to Give an Explunution. MADRID, Sept. 10.—Official dispatches from Havana confirm the report that Calixto Garcia and Jesus Rabi, two of the insurgent generals, have captured the town of Victoria do laa Tunas. The Spanish garrison, consisting of three hundred men, were all taken prisoners. Subsequently, eighty-seven of the Spaniards were exchanged for an equal number of Cuban prisoners. The minister of war has cabled Captain General Weyler asking for an explanation regarding the capture of the town, which was defended by seven forts, having two Krupp guns among the armament. It is stated here that the object of the insurgents is to establish their government there and then obtain the recognition of thedr belligerency by the United States. A Spanish expedition will ba organized to recapture Victoria de las Tunas. The Cabinet ministers have been summoned to consider the situation. The newspapers of this city, commenting on the capture of the town, condemn Captain General Weyler. The Imparcial says that Gen. Jovellar was removed from his command for a similar disaster in 1576. It is pointed out that the strategic position of Victoria de las Tunas is important. The town of Victoria de las Tunas has been famous since the war of IS6B to 1878. In 1876 it was taken by the insurgents under Gen. Vicente Garcia. At the beginning of the present revolution it was strongly fortified by the Spaniards, its garrison numbering'at least 2,000 men. Cubans Control n Province. ST. LOUIS, Sept. - Globe-Demo-crat’s Havana correspondent says: “There is no question now about the fact that the whole province of Santiago de Cuba is controlled by the insurgents under General Calixto Garcia and General Jesus Rabi, the Spanish troops being hemmed in the capital and Manzanillo. At Platano, near the town of Victoria de las Tunas, in that province, the Spanish battalion Cordoba has been utterly routed by the Cubans under General Perignito Perez, acting under instructions from General Garcia. The battle was fought in a heavy rain, in spite of which it lasted several hours. The victory of the Cubans was so complete that they captured the flag of the battalion, a large train convoyed by the Spaniards and nearly all the arms and ammunition of the battalion. The Spanish soldiers fled in disorder, throwing on the field their guns, hats, blankets and ammunition. “The news of this battle and of the general failure to hold the province of Santiaga de Cuba has caused a great sensation in Havana. General Weyler. cabled at length this morning to Madrid about the situation. The last news from the Orient, as well as what is happening in Havana around the capital itself, has increased the captain general’s unpopularity. The news sent last week of the landing in the province of Havana of General Rafael de Cardena’s big expedition from the United States is now fully confirmed and is not denied at the palace of the captain general. The expedition carried an unusually large supply <>f dynamite. The Spaniards, who, until a few days ago, supported Weyler’s policy most enthusiastically, now say that he is ruining Spain and losing Cuba, and that, in spite of all his boasted reports, the insurgents are stronger than the Spaniards in tho provinces said by him to be pacified. “In the city of Havana there has been no meat for two days. The population, threatened with starvation, protest against the conduct of Weyler and his agents, who have seized in the last few weeks all the cattle in the neighborhood to provision the troops. The shots of the insurgents around the suburbs of Havana are heard every night, exactly as before Weyler took the field two weeks ago.” Cuba’s New Tariff Law. MADRID, Sept. 10.—The official Gazette has not yet completed the publication of all schedules of the new Cuban tariff. The reduction in the duty on American goods generally is considerable. Upon crude petroleum the duty is not changed, but thvre Is a considerable reduction in the duty on refined petrol’eum. The duties on firearms and canned goods as articles of luxury are slightly increased. The minister for the colonies, Senor Castellano, has decided to hasten the application of the Cuban reforms. Th’e law providing for the election of the commission for Cuban administration will shortly appear. The municipal elections have been fixed for Oct. 10. The application of the provincial law will follow, and, finally, the application of the necessary lays and Regulations for the council of administration, which will commence work on March 1. when the reforms are generally applied will be next in order.

WHEAT STILL BOOMING ■ ♦ * INACTIVE SEPTEMBER MARKET TOUCHED THE DOLLAR MARK. December Futures Came Within a Fraction of tlie Century Quotation—Provisions Slumped. CHICAGO, Sept. 10.—September wheat sold at a dollar to-day, and December came within %c of that figure at one time, but declined before the close to 98c, an advance of 14 c since Yesterday. September closed at 981&C. Strong foreign markets, seaboard engagements and rumors of a reduction in the French wheat tariff were buillish features, the reaction being caused by realizing sales. Corn declined and oats %c. Provisions closed lower on renewed yellow fever scare in the South. Wheat was in good demand at the start at about %c Improvement over yesterday’s closing price for December and lc for September. To a supposedly defunct deal September exhibited a surprising degree of activity, and climbed up to $1 within a minute or two of opening, when the price was 99VzC. December was decidedly erratic. From 9!R/ic to 98Vic to begin with, it rose to 98%c, turned around and went back again to then it dropped to 97*gC, rose from that in a gradual way to 97%c. From the latter point to 99&c was the work of about twenty minutes, and those fluctuations were all within the first two hours of the session. The rally was caused primarily by an advance of 1 2-3 c in the price at Liverpool at the opening. Paris started 10 centimes lower, but that market closed at an advance of 10 centimes, while Antwerp gained 20 centimes. A cablegram stated there were good prospects of a reduction of 2 francs in the duty on French wheat. This was disputed later, but in the meantime it had caused December to jump to 9914 c. Chicago received 269 cars, only 12 of them contract. Minneapolis and Duluth receipts were 496 cars, against 1,143 the corresponding day of the year before. Atlantic port clearances ot wheat and flour Were equal to about 800,000 bushels. Primary market receipts were 1,538,789 bushels, compared with 1.019,197 bushels the similar day of last year. As was the case in the recent boom in September wheat, the mark’d had to take a great deal of long grain when the price approached the dollar mark. At 9944 c offerings were very free, much more liberal than the limited demand could absorb, and the consequence was a gradual but st’eady decline. December finally got down to 98c, wfiere it closed. September closed at 98 l / 2 c. Corn was rather easy. The market opened firm at a slight improvement, the strength of wheat and some bad state crop reports encouraging buyers, but the strength was only temporary. The crowd feared that the government crop figures might look high when issued to-nignt, which caused considerable s’elling. The nonappearance of frost in the corn belt also had a weakening influence, but probably the chief reason for the weakness was the growing pressure of the enormous receipts, 1,316 cars oeing received to-day and freer country offerings were reported. Atlantip port clearances were 929,00 u bush’els. Liverpool cables were firm and %and higher. The range for December was between 33%c and 33c, the closing price being 33%c asked. Oats were firm, notwithstanding thfe declining tendency of corn. Tnere was enormous cash demand, sales of about 300,000 bushels being rtported, and this and a large export business served to sustain prices. Receipts were 429 cars. December ranged from 21%c to 21 VsC, closing at 21%@21 1 /4e, a. shade under yesterday. The appearance of new yellow fever cases at New Orleans made a weak provision market. Liquidation was free and stop-loss ord’ers appeared on tho market. The decline was stopped by the support of Swift and other packers, and the close was a little over the bottom. Tho weakness of corn had some inttu’ence. At the close December pork was 22%e lower at $8.4!%; December lard, 10c lower at $4.75, and December ribs, 5c lower at $4.90.

AT NEW YORK. Ruling' Prices in Produce at the Seaboard’* Commercial Metropolis. new YORK, Sept. 10.—Wheat pursued an erratic course to-day, finally winding up at %@V4c net decline. There were two periods of decided strength, during which December touched $1.03, or within iy,c of the highest point of the year. The first occurred at the opening and was based on foreign buying, together with a firmer set of cables. On a subsequent sharp decline local traders accumulated a good-sized short Interest, which was later run In by a rumor that the French duty was about to be reduced. Following this rise was another decline, which left the market in drooping condition, influenced by realizing efforts and lack of the usual export interest. Corn started off fairly firm, but responded to better crop news with a sharp break, closing %c net lower. The range on December wheat was $1.01% @1.03, closing at $1.01%. December corn sold from 38%®'39c and closed at 38Vic. The government report made a condition of 85.7 on all wheat, indicating a crop of 463,225,009 bushels.
