Wall Street Reacts to Money Flurry and Peace Rumors
Trading opened with call money hitting 15 percent briefly and settling around 6 percent as professional traders renewed selling pressure. A London rumor of US peace mediation by Ambassador Gerard spurred anxiety while some stocks like American Car & Foundry and Baldwin showed gains on weak news for others. The New Haven railroad reports a dim four-month surplus, and Kelly-Springfield plans a Cumberland move with tax abatements, while concerns over wartime profits linger for American Can and others.
