GREATER ACTIVITY
SHOWN IN BONDS
?
Continuation of Steady Upward
Climb Conspicuous
Feature of Week.
?
NEW YORK. Sept. 10.?The week's
trading In the bond market was
marked by Increased activity snd
a contlpuation of a steady upward
trend In prices- The present capacity
of the market to absorb a large
tmount of new offerings is shown
oy the failure of the increased
amount of new issues during the
oast fortnight to check or retard the
progress of prices toward higher
evels- The S2S.000.000 Brazilian is- !
ue of last week made scarcely a |
ripple on the surface. This week's'
lew financing was featured by the J
Treasury offering of short terra
notes and certificates of approximately
ts00.000.000. but little effect
Was expected from this, as government
maturities Just about offset
:hls amount. ,
The traction group was not very
ectlvs on the whole but prices were
rirm. The Interborough 7 per cent
notes mad* a sharp advance on the
urb. following postponement of re Ivershlp
action, although the reFunding
Ss failed to reflect this ravirable
point. Third Avenue adjustment
Ss rallied over 7 pointy from
the law of last week on the prosjeet
of payment of back Interest
is * result of improved earnings.
lltNn and Manhattan adjustment
Is and. Market Street Railway 6s
also advanced. The railroad lssuee
mproved steadily with a good demand,
the special feature being the
harp gains made by Missouri. Kaa as
and Texas bonds. Early announcement
of a reorganisation plan
'or this road, which is now in the
lands of a receiver, is expected
few high prices were registered by
Burlington Joint $4s and Colorado
tnd Southern refunding 4Hs. The
Industrials after early strength became
irregular, but finished firm.
(Veakness developed in Cuba Cane
nnvertlble 7s, while Standard Oil
,1 California Ts made a new high.
Westsrn Union IHs recently Issued
tt 99, were in good demand and ad-anced
to above 101. There are Inllcatloas
that many of the more reent
popular bond Issues are being
ought by Investment houses for
vant of really new material with
vhich to fill the autumn demands
>f customers.
Victory bonds were very active all
veek and were fairly steady. Tradng
was also heavy In Liberty bonds,
jut prices were Irregular. Foreign
government issues held firm in spite
>f a slump tn foreign exchange,
fexiean government 4s and ts
?icked up briskly on the more fav>rable
news from south of the
order.

WEAKENS WHEAT
i Early Upturn Causes Heavy
i Selling:. With Less Aggressive
Support.
^CHICAGO, Sept. 10.?All dclfver]
iea of wheat *old at a new hi?h on
the present movement early on j
acattered buying. induced by the I
strength In cotton and stocks, but j
the upturn brought out heavy proflttaking
sales, and with lesa aggreatlvs
support than recently. Pricet
reacted sharply, although the market
failed to show any great weakness.
Many of the local element'
went out of their lines on the bulge. I
The technical position has been
weakened by the big advance of j
late over 20 cents from the recent j
low pointf and the embargoing of j
shipments of United States grain j
from Georgan Bay p?r*t to Montreal I
by the Canadian jPaciflc was considerable
Influence', although its ef-1
feet was most noticeable in corn a
very large quantity of that grain
j having been sold for shipment via
Montreal, and the latter hat for
some time past been shipping more
corn than all American ports com-1
bined. Export demand was report- i
td at alow early following sale* of
around 3.000 000 bushels the past j
two days, partly Manitobas. Sentiment
on the whole remains bullish, i
and the breaks bring In good buying i
orders. Deliveries on September
contracts were 106.000 bushels.
Corn and oats, after a Arm start
eased off sharply with wheat, and
on the embargo against Montreal.
Country offerings of corn were
heavy following purchases to arrivo
of 1.600,000 bushels yesterday.
It fa expected that export sales via
Canadian ports will be greatly hampered
by the embargo, although it
has been very noticeable of late that
the bulk of lake charters have been
to Buffalo. Weather conditions generally
were unfavorable for maturing
the crop. Sentiment in oats Is
generally bullish, and all deliveries
told at a new high on the present!
upturn early.
Proviaions were fairly active and j
somewhat firmer early with scattered
commission houses on the buying
side. Packers sold on the advance.

here all up in the air again.
There waa a scramble to buy back

sold cotton so freely Thurndav and
early esterday r.n the belief the bull 1
movement had been overdone in the j
excited rise in prices here snd at
Liverpool and on the Southern spot
markets during the first half of the
week. Trices started with a rise
of 20 points on October contracts
in the Initial trading. This was extended
to 50 points on December
and nearly 60 on January.
After this opening advance had
brought out the usual profit-taking
by traders with a moderate set-back
in prices, the flood news came In
from San Antonio. Its effect was
to cause another bulge which continued
until the general contrsct !
list had been carried up to J 80 ,
j points over yesterday's closing for
October and 160 for December,
against 150 on January and 130 on !
March. There was a good deal of i
forced buying in of short contracts
on this violent advance which helped
to make the top price. October and
December went up to 21.45. January
21.15. March 20.90 and May about
20 1-2 cents.
As regards the gulf storm the lat- ,
est Weather Bureau reports show ,
that it is still in the Caribbean Sea
and north and west of Curaca. It ;
is moving in a northwesterly direc- j
tion and if it strikes into the cotton 1
belt Sunday o- Monday, it would j
probably be confined to the Texas j
coast, as tropical storms generally
lose their intensity as they progress :
out of the central part of the gulf, i
It was assumed In the trade here |
today this news with Our renewed j
sharp advance would hav? a further
bulging effect on the Liverpool mar- ,
ket on the resumption of business j
