New York, Dec. 19.-The feature of the
trading at the Stock Exchange to-day was
the neaVE liquidation for foreign ac-
count. London cables received here be-
fore the opening showed material declines
IN our stocks and this was followed by
selling orders of larger proportions in
Louisville and Nashville, St. Paul and
other American shares listed abroad. This
foreign selling led to sales by local op-
orators, and the result was a drop of
prices. Rumors Of heavy gold exports
by Saturdays European steamers were
put ahoat and this added to the depres-
sion. 1t was said at one time that the
exports on the day named would reach
$lO,OOOOOO, but this is an eXaggeration and
good authorities do not look for ship
ments of anything like the amount stat
ed. Up to the close of business only S5OO .
90 mad been engaged. 1t is known, how
ever, that arrangements are making for
the export OF about 100000 of the metal,
and that this will be announced to-mor-
row. In the break in price which follow
ed the early London selling Consolidated
Gas, Pullman Palace, Jersey Central, Bal
timore and Ohio, and tAe southwesterns
We're most conspicuous. Vanderbilts are
also lower, notwithstanding the declara-
ton OF the usual dividend of New York
Central, Lake Shore, Michigan Central,
and Canada Southern. In the afternoon
a steadier tone characterized the market,
the delay in the Senate on the matter
VI the venezuelan commission having
been favorably Interpreted London
houses changed front and bought a lit
tie stock, and this had stimulating eff
feet on prices, which recovered 1851 per
cent. Money was little more active
and late in the day rose to per cent.
The advance, however, had no influence
on stocks, which left off steady to firm in
tone. Net changes show losses of Il to pa
per cent. in the active railway, and las
per cent. in the specialties. The bond mar
ket was active and heavy in sympathy
with the weakness of stocks. The sales
footed up $2,141,000.
Sales listed stocks today aggregated 1888, =
l46 shares, and of unlisted stocks, 66,232
shares.
