FOREIGN SELLING IN
STANDARD BONDS
Liauidalum for German Ac

Lower After Early Strength.
UF,X VOflK. Feb. 11 -The position or
the stovk market today was n peculiar
n There as the Minn hosllntltisf lend
ftiicv in evidence for tlie lnit sevcrnl da.)n,
bccnuBp Of foreign diplomatic develop
ments and the blockade of the British
Jislea by Udrmany was again present
Al Ih outset prices throtifslioiH the
lint Were Rencrallj below the nnal
Jestordny. and tm the mornlne; ad
Vancctl the declines became larger and
lrtoro tpnneral Around tnlddav the market
strengthened somewhat, gome isstioi ro
Ih above the final jeeterdaVi on tho re
port that Preilclent Wilson would not
tall an elra session of Consres. This
Ills been nn Importniit tiling from a
lock market point of view foi some
time
In the afternoon there was another sell
ing movement which carried prices of
many standard Issues downward At the
close there was a slight rall On the
whole tho market was an Irregular one
throughout the day.
Tho ofCerltiRS today were light and the
demand was small, and consequently the
market was quiet, even more po than on
recent daje There vvas some forolRii
colllnc, but It wns moro evident In bonds
than In stocks I.hiko Amounts of bonds
were sold "SeltetV 20,' In other words,
the seller has 20 d.is in which lo make
delivery
Thesn sales were thought to be princi
pally for German account and Included
many of the standard Issues. Numbered
amoni; the securities sold were Southern
Pacino refunding Is. Ilock Island refund
ing 4s, Northern Paclllc 4s and 3s, St.
Paul Ss and Central Pacific 4
This telling caused mote strength In
tho foreign exchange market and rates
today were generally higher all around.
Demand sterling was about 2V4 cents
nbovo the close yesterday. This liquida
tion of foreign-held American securities
waa not unexpected In view of the recent
weakness In foreign exchange It had
generally been assumed thai Europe
would resort to this method In some de
gree In oraer to put exchange rates back
on a normal basis In addition to this
there Is further talk today of the forma
tion of a big credit balance here for Kng
land, but It Is regarded in the street that
the Initiative should be taken by England
In the late afternoon the foreign ex
change market lost some of Its early
Strength, demand sterling closing at
U134 S2.
Minneapolis and St I.ouls securities,
which have been strong for the last sev
eral days on the report that the road
would be taken over bj the "Soo I-lne,"
weakened on the announcement of Pies
Ident Pennington, of the "Soo, that no
negotiations were under vvav or that tho
question of buying or leasing the road
had ever been consideied. Tho pieferred
stock dropped 34 points to TD, the com
mon lost a to 16'i, and the I per cent
bonds sagged off 3 points to VI Iowa
Central refunding 4 per cent bonds
sagged 1M to 63&,

PHILADELPHIA MARKET
IN STAGNANT MOOD
Rapid Transit Received Sup
port Northern Central Re
ported Sale of Treasury As
sets. There was little worthy of discussion In
the day's dealings on the Philadelphia
exchange Pi Ice changes' ern Inslgnln
ennt excrpt In the stocks with a market
In New York. These for a tlmo showed
sIriis of heaviness, but later beenmo
steadier Tradets were Inclined to sell
I'nlted States Steal for n epectllulUe tun
despite the fairly encouraging ndvlcoi In
the weekly icvlows dcAllmr with the iron
slid steel business Cambria Steel, how
ever, romnlned Inert, whereas the divi
dend ncrlp was In demand nround ST
Inquiry continued for Philadelphia lllec
trlr and tho stock ruled firm.
Around mid-day American Hal1wns
common and preferred ucre offered In
moderate quantities nnd receded some
what Philadelphia Comr. .i cumulative
preferred lost a point On the other hand,
Philadelphia l'lcctric 5i advanced lo 102,
and .lersey Traction Bs moved up a point
Amerlctn CIns sold exdlvldend at 100 com

with tho dlvnclcnd on
In tho final dealings American Gas ral
lied to 10216 and Cambria Steel scrip
rose to M On the other hand United
Gas Improvement eased off lo D2 The
close was dull
Electric Storage Hattcry hardened In re
sponse to the drclnratlun or the 1 per
cent, qunrterlv dividend The company
Is understood to be doing well despite the
generil trntle depression Ilapld Transit
recoveied to 10 The wav these shares
continue to scrape along the bottom level
at which they have ever sold since they
became full paid is a gicat disappoint
ment 1 he company nppears to be hold
ing its own and Is In physlcnllv much
better shspp than when the stock was
selling above 88 The trouble, ot com so,
lies In the probable necessity of raising
additional funds for extensions subways,
eievateds, etc. If It goes Into h eTajlor
plan About everj thing In way of
assets Is alreadj up as collateral, and
unless the Union Traction stockholdera
can be brought atound to palng up the
full pat 'value on their stock It Is diffi
cult to reu Just how the money Is to bo
raised at such n time us the present
Inqulrv among local biukers loduj as
to whi-the. unv move had et been made
to participate In the talked-of establish
ment of n JIOO.000,000 foreign credit to take
care of t'oe anomalous condition of the
exchange market brought foith the fuct
that nothing ns jet had been done There
is plentv of Idle monev here which could
readily be emplo.vod for such a puipodo
nnd should the banking frntcrnltv decide
that srmet'nlng of the sou must be done
Philadelphia will no doubt be Included,
ns it whs in other recent International
monetary arrangements
The annual report of the Noithern Cen

order to cany out ndjustn nts Incidental

In increasing tho company s surplus from

against which were charged the special
dividends, bilnglng down the surplus

Northern business men.
The committee wanted some Florida celery, which was then
being shipped by the trainload.
They got enough celery for the dinner by sending to hila

Florida grows winter vegetables to feed the North, but not
for her own people.
This is a story that is particularly interesting just now
when Philadelphians are eating FloridaVegetables.
