For trie first time since war's outbreak, conditions abroad were today almost wholly sub ordinated on the stock exchange floor to the Mexican situation. Latest de velopments excited some concern in financial"; circles. , Stocks were steady at the opening, but became moderately unsettled on announcement that Warships would be sent to Mexican ports. Prices became firmer, however, when it., became known that Washington had not de parted -from its policy of non-intervention. Recoveries to the early high level were recorded, but trading grew increasingly dull, with, few material changes at the close. Retirement of the Gould, ; or .. domi nant interest from the Missouri Pacif icand St. Louif & Iron Mountain roads was- reflected by considerable activity at advancing prices in securities of those properties. Later, however, profit-taking in 'Missouri Pacific caused some shading of quoted values. West ern Maryland common and preferred were the only railroad Stocks to score substantial - gains. Canadian Pacific, Reading. Lehigh Valley and Chesa peake & Ohio were relatively heavy. Time money was dull, six months loans were quoted at 3 14 ier cent. Sales of stocks today tottlled" 209,200 shares. There was a marked decrease of fu ture or foreign sales of American bonds. That market was irregular with strength in low-priced issues. American bankers r announced an im pending loaa f $15,000,000, to Switzer land in the" fbrm of one " to five years 5 per cent notes, the proceeds to be used for purchases 1 in this country. Total sales, par value, aggregated $2,417,000. United States bonds un changed on calk - ....... NEW YORK STOCK. LIST. GOTTOX SEED OIL MARKET. Xew York, March 9.

Having succeededMn this, the Germans spent several weeks holding their position until they could bring op artillery and prepare thoroughly for their attack. When this finally began, they had already ascertiijied details of the French position so accurately that one of their first artillery shots dropped-into the officers' dug-out, kill ing two of the three.

LIVE STOCK MARKET. London, March 8. Queer sugges tions continue to come, forth as to what to do in case, of a. bomb attack on London. In the House of Lords the past week, one of the noble - members said he had received an official com munication informing him that if a shell were to explode at his front door, he would do well to leave the house by the back door. Np advice was given in regard to a bomb dropping at the back door. The members of St. Mark's parish church, New Barnet, have received .these directions:. "In the event of an air raid the con gregation will .sing -a hymn, while the sidesmen conduct them in an orderly manner out of the church, those pn the north side out of the aiorth door, those on the south side out of the side door. No one to leave his place until asked to do so by the sidesmen ih charge of his aisle. The sidesmen will be in charge of the section from which they collect the offertory.". Writing tt one of the London papers, a- correspondent reminds hig .- readers Lthat inasmuch as lightning never strikes twice in the same place, the safest thing would be to run and stand in a hole made by an explosion.

In peaceful times it is a favorite resor for the geologists and botanists of Strassburg and " Freiburg universities. , V During the hard . fighting : which oc curred there in January, Alpine riflemen of the French Array Were In possession of the plateau which they had forti fied with timber and earthworks. .When the Germans came to dislodge them, EXECUTOR'S NOTICE.
