THEWAR- som E REFILL CTlONS|
ByE S. GooDHUE Il. d


The outcome OF this war. Who can
ten what Il will be- The nature Of
the forces involved. our ignorance OF
the real resources and reserves Of the
powers concerned. our want OF specific
information regarding the strategic
plans OF either side. and the utterly
unreliable reports as to the actual
progress Of the war. make prophecy
worse than useless.
We are. therefore. left free TO guess
or philosophers
We have learned that the early bat
ties OF great war are seldom deter
minative.
Sometimes one side wins iron start
to finish, but, as rliie. the contest
fIuctnates like the waves OF q choppy
sea. and very often II has happened
that the early winner has finally given
way to the slow. sure progress Of q
superior opponent.
The beginnings of our Civil war
were dark for the Union caiise. We
had prepared for q .walk-o. err and
found our enemy resolnte. Plans had
to be made, officers changed and the
whole course Of action altered to meet
the appalling reyerses. Then as re-
cruits came in. raw and susceptible to
the threads Of exposure, the reverses
and victories shifted from one side to
the other til the world shrugged its
shoulders, snd distinguished English
parliamentarian sneered:
Let them fight II out like two Kill
kenny cats til nothing but the tails
are left. .
To the careful student of the sit
uation, however there seemed but one
possible outcome. A just cause
great moral issue IN Itself was an aid
to final victory. The North had wealth
and almost inexhansible resources
upon which she drew slowly, but could
continue to draw for years.
The South threw everything into an
impulsive attack and, relatively speak
ing, was soon trailing q ragged, broken
army to, the conflict Maryell0usly
she outlined her campaign. brayely she
carried It out, gi0riously her sons
fought, but the contest was unequal,
morally and materially She couldn't

ford to lose. In this war the spiritual
factor counted as much as the physi-
cal.
Even man like Lee had tears In
his heart every time he looked upon
the stars and Stripes, the emblem
OF Union he loved to the end Of his
life.
So the beautiful South scored its
greatest success BY losing the war
and surrendeTing without humiliation
at Appomattox.
IN the Boer war the early successes
Of the defenders came as q surprise.
though here, too, there vas only one
possible result While right did not
perch on the English hammer, superior
force was on that side and In the
end prevailed. And Il ll'6 ligl,t Of
later events we may perhaps grant
that It was good thing TOR the Beers
to be- conquered.

expected anything but Span
fish defeat.

There Is only one side to the bond
market at present and that Is the SELL
Ing side. Bonds are on tap all the time.
They are simply pouring in. The va
riety OF the offerings indicates that in
vsstors are turning their strong boxes
inside out. The foreign selling. OF
course. makes up the large part of the
selling. although liquidation from local
sources is not lacking. The feature OF
this foreign selling is that it is coming
from many sources rather than through
the few big banking houses which usu-
ally handle the foreign business. AL
most all the older Stock Exchange firms
have their list Of foreign customers and
practically every one OF these is con-
tributing to the food OF selling. Bond
experts say that the market is con-
fusinC simply because OF the multitude
OF offerings which raises the question
whether the same blocks are not being
offered by several different parties, So
far the resistance of prices has been
remarkable. Bond men say that they
are amazed at the way the market has
stood up under the selling. The worst
feature OF the foreign selling Is that

standard Rails.

There was some foreign selling or
stocks. as we'll as bonds. according to
report. Renewed liquidation in st. Paul
and the development of pronounced
weakness in Louisville and Nashville.
Illinois Central. Southern Railway and
Canadian Pacific we're attributed TO this.
The same hollow market was presented
by these last as In the case of ST. Paul.
This absence of demand for standard
rails near the quoted level whenever
selling appears Is still the striking fea,
ture. 1t comedies with a distinct lessen
ing Of bullish sentiment upon the rails.
This suggests that the Street as a whole
"a not quite wiling to accept the ex-
PLANTATION of foreign selling as the sole
or even the most important factor In the
decline. In other words II IL doubtful
II such declines could have taken place
unless the Street held these stocks in
rather poor opinion. Foreign selling is
the most favorable explanation that can
he given for any weakness. Theoreti-
cally its effect upon prices hould he
ci;y temporary. for such selling provides
investors and spectators at home with
an opportunity of picking up cheap
stocks that they would not otherwise
have. The sharp falls In these stocks
caused by the latest squirt OF foreign
selling appears to have opened the eyes
OF the Street to the real market for
tho rails and TO have suggested posi-
BILE reasons for these conditions that
were not in mind before.

Eject Of Foreign Liquidation.

Knauth. Nachod & Kuhne have Is
sued a letter on the effect Of foreign
liquidation which says in part THE
liquidation that has already taken place
has pretty we'll exhausted Europe's
speculative holdings of American securi-
ties. They have been absorbed by our
market. The investment holdings will
for reasons explained be much more
difficult to dislodge. II liz ridiculous to
suppose viat all these foreign holdings
could be lIuidated. Many Of them could
not be sold at all. since they were is-
sued in francs aud not IN dollars and
for that reason could he marketed only
In Paris, Other important holdings be-
long to foreign insurance companies and
large estates, many OF which have al
ready put in heavy subscriptions for war
issue and are certainly not eager to ex-
tend their investments in the area of
hostilities. 1t is inconceivable. there
fore, except in the case of dire emer-
gency. that oil of these holdings of our
securities viii be liquidated. II is safe
to say also that at a time when half
the civilized world il at war other for
eign holders-a great body of them
will safeguard their income by retain
ing the securities of the most powerful
neutral market. But making no allow
ancc for the foreign liquidation of the
last three months and estimating the
value OF American securities now in the
hands of foreigners at s21l4,OOO. 900
what would happen IL say half of these
holdings were sold? The chances are
that nothing alarming would happen.
Such an amount, Sl.072,O 00. 900. would
about offset our foreign trade balance
for the year ended June 80 last. There
il every reason to believe that this mar
ket could stand such liquidation if it was
called upon 10 do so. Just as 1t has stood
the much more violent selling movement
of the last eleven months with none OF
the disturbances winch were predicted
In December by those who opposed the
reopening OF the Stock Exchange, There
Is nothing in the situation to alarm real
holders OF American securities and no
reason why they should sacrifice their
holdings"

Got Yoar IceH

Four months ago was inaugurated
that best knoVn OF Wall Street In
~stltutions, the spring campaign In Amer
lean Ice stock. At that time one of the
news agencies spoke OF the ~company's
prospects In the following glowing
terms The season for which the Amer
lean Ice Company has been preparing
for the last ten years has arrived. With
the natural ice crop or the Hudson River
800. 900 to 400. 900 tons short OF a normal
crop and a shortage in the Maine fields
OF close to the same amount the COM
pany with its immense artificial capac
!ty goes into the spring season in a
practically i~mpregnable position" Yes
terday the same news agency quoted
a prominent interest in the company
as follows: Lack Of strength in Amer
lean Ice Securities stock Is to be ex-
pected. Weather conditions have been
the worst in my memory with the posi-
BILE exception OF 1907. BY this I mean
the period extending over the last three
months. 1t might be said that there has
been no ice weather yet"
The stock Is now practically on the
same level II was last March. In the
interim It has been as high as IS on a
good turnover.
