GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
Foreign Selling.

There was moderate selling for foreign
account In the market yesterday, even IL
this was only one OF many influences
working TO bring about n reaction. There
was also selling from this source on
Monday and Saturday. This occurred
despite the fact that the communications
between the two markets are far from
normal When Wall Street talks of
there being no longer fear OF foreign
liquidation Il really means that there Is
no longer fear OF an avalanche OF foreign
selling. New York Is at present the only
open market for securities In the world
Therefore the worlds efforts to convert
securities into cash will be concentrated
on this market That there will he such
efforts IL undoubted In the case of
London, for Instance, American securities
constitute only very small department
OF the exchange Stocks In most other
departments arc practically unstable.
American stocks will be sold to fortify
positions I'm other directions. Holland
had been selling American stocks rather
continuously prior to the outbreak Of
the war and may be expected TO continue.
Belgium also had a large quantity or our
securities. Germany Of course. may be
expected to sell on every opportunity.
OF course foreign holders would not be
willing 20 sacrifice their Americans where
Il could be avoided, but a big rise here
would he "a tremendous temptation to war
Scared Europe Moreover, II must be re-
mcmbered that any great amount or
selling would again complicate the for

Many sections OF the South are yet unn-

it Is believed when they learn that bor-

loan there will be much dissatisfaction.
