The Stock markets were very depressed all day as war between Spain and the United States is generally regarded as inevitable.
Business was extremely quiet, and the fall in values, chiefly due to the action of the dealers in quoting lower prices as a precautionary measure rather than to any heavy sellers.

LONDON STOCK" EXCHANGE NOTES. Tuesday Evening.
Late this afternoon the report was current in the Money Market that the United States would raise a big war loan in London of about 50,000,000 dollars. The market here would undoubtedly recsive such an issue with open arms, but a large issue of this kind would only serve to accentuate the daily increasing tightness in our money supplies. Nothing further has been heard ot the projected Spanish loan, and unless Messrs Rothschild advance the money on the same security as before, no house in London would ilmm taking up what from the first would be an uiLj-HituiHr loan. last wek some surprise was expressed that the Bank rate was not moved to 5 per cent in order to afford protection to the Small reserve of 18. 434.000.
Th for this is now pretty plain on account of the new policy introduced by the governor and diroctors. It would annear nulla nmnntlr tiie bank made some arivances free of charce on condition that these advances should be repaid in gold, in connection with this new policy a substantial amount of gold was yesterday announced as having been received from Germany, though it was actually received the previous night, but too late for putting in th official returns of Monday. In the Money Market, to-day it was conceded that this new policy will materially strengthen the gold reserve, while the new policy has inspired confidence to the market, a3 it displays cautionary business foresight ol the directors in protecting the interests oi the bank. Yesterday a few sales were made of Gas Light and co*ke Shares on the assumption that when the Bill cornea before the Select Committee of ths House of Comm ms for the purpose of consolidating the stock that the opposition will be so great as to lead to a failure of the Bill. There are about a dozsn different issues of this company's shares, and a consolidation would lead to a much more uniform dividend declaration At the present moment to pay a 10 per cent interest on A Preference is certainly too high.
The various issues are Ordinarv shares, Four per Cent maximum D'and Ten per Cent Preference Five per Cent Seven and a Half per Cent; Seven per Cent maximum Ten per Cent Preference; Six per Cent; Four and a Half per Cent Debenture Stock Four urt Cnt; Piohonf Stock and Six per Cent Debenture Stock. The report in circulation yesterday that the opposition at Westminster will be led by Sir Albert Ro'Jitfc. Particulars are now to hand respecting the registration of the Fine Cottra Spinners and Doublers' Association, Ltd, the prospectus of which was passed by the directors last week. The capital is 4,000,000, of which 2,000,000 ivill be Five per Cent Cumulative Preference Shares. The chairman of the company will have a salary for the first yar of 2,500, and each director will get 500 a year.
The signatories to the articles of association are Houldsworth, Newton street, Manchester; Holland, Victoria Manchester; Murray, Murray street, An-coats, ilanchester; Swindells, Bollmg-ton, Macclesfield; Moorhouse, Brinks-way Bank Miils, Stockport; Peel, Jackson Company, Manchester; and Bell House, Mynshufls Mflls, Manchester. There will be not less than five directors, the qualification beinjj 5,000 each. The Cycle Market was conspicuous for the paucity of business doini; to-day, and beyond au attempt to sell Dunlops there was nothing doing. The sale3 which have taken place ot late in these shares are said to be due to the unloading of a persona friend of Mr Hoolsv's ww JV-UV JOIH lil- side knowledge that the Dunlop Company does not possess the monopoly which they fondly imagined thi-y had. Dunlop Deferred were quoted at 7s 6d, Ss (id at the close to-m'snt, and the Preference 13s 9d, and the Ordinary 14s Gd.
For some time past the report has been hinted about that the Deferred Shares will get no dividend, and that the Ordinary Shares will probably witness a railing away. Russian Oil Shares are still in the dumps, despite tins report that au official intimation has been made as to the profits and to there being no cioud on the title to the propey. Yesterday die shares were offered down to 22. but improved slightly. The slump which has again occurred on the Stock Exchange has considerably added to the already general recession in prices.
War is looked upon as inevitable now, and some sharp fluctuations will follow in the next few day3. Before the outbreak of eruptions between Spain and chu United States took place, prices on 'Change were almost at thir highest level.
