Investors nt tho present time nro hohlltiK off from putting money lino perinunenr pun rliiiecr. Knropo Is si'lllm? to th!i country n bin eupply of American bonds iih the j-isult of the IiIkIi :l.teret IioIiik offered 1u the meat new Itrltlsli war loan, nhd the outlook In tho Rvnernl bond market la not particularly uicoiiniRliiit. Itnrrly Hid for Cll l.onn. J. I'. Morgan K Co. have In recent yerd rarely nppeared n blddern for i city loan. In times of spwlnl need this firm has come forwaid mid taken A 1tf,lttp n.irl In the Mnnneliii; of the cltv. This wan demonstrated In n way that ' m.itl llniuicl.il hMurv last September, Tihen with Ktihti. I.oeb & Co. the Mor- 1 enn linn organized the syndicate that financed the S10U.000.ono loan to the city to pav Its debts abroad. Tho Kuliti. I.eob & Co.-Wllllam A. Itesd & Co. syndicate, lias been very miccessful In bidding for both Htat mid elty loans. One of the most quickly euccesful loans of n State or city that has appeared In several years was the f 31,Ann,onO I' per cent.

The blddlnc of these two syndicates will be watched with great Interest In Wall Street because the price of the Issuo nnd Its relative success In subsequent offering are regarded as a crucial test of the Present Inveetment demand and financial temper of the country. During the past week It became more r.ppnrent that the Investment demand was not a strong one and that the elty would probably have to be satisfied with a comparatively low price. The lionds on the curb have dropped from 103 , the high a week ago, to 102;, the closing jestcrday. While the curb price affords little real Indications of the price the bonds should bring. It Is generally recog nized that the Investment market has had to take for several weeks, paitt eularly during the pust week, a very heavy amount of high grade American bond's from London.

Albant, Juns 26. Supremo' Com t ' Justice Wesley O. Howard has wiltten I a letter to Willis U lleaton, former Hur- , rogato of Hensselaer county, hiiggestlng ' that th) Constitution be so amended as to provide for tho Imp' jltlon of a tax , on the Keumbo.it llnt.4 of the Hudson.

Juetlce Howard writes; "Many propositions Jim been pre sented to tha constitutional convention for consideration, but the tubjeet of tax at Ion Is the one Hupieme question, us I view It, which the convention should consider.
