Xevembcr -t.—lnsti tutions were again large buyers today of high-grade railroad and public utility bonds at the best prices in many instances so far registered this year. The feature this week lias been the demand from select investment quarters of issues on which the re turn ranges from 4% to 4*4 per cent. 4% per cent. Some of the bonds which were in fluenced by this buying were South ern Pacific 4*43 at an advance of a point. Northwestern general ss. Great Northern sis, Elgin & Joliet ss, Union Pacific 4%5. Burlington 4V&S, Oregon & Western 4s and Northern Pacific 6s. Frisco 4s Attract Notice. In the secondary list of rails there was active interest in such issues as Frisco 4s above 91, Southern Railway 4s and the higher coupon bon*' of this same mortgage, Soo Line ss, Rock Island 4Vis, Erie general 4s and refunding 5s and Missouri Pacific ss. The Seaboard group was a little heavy, with a new low price on the all- Florida 6s, which cover the mileage of the road where the sharpest de cline in earnings has occurred Public utility bonds, including those of the telephone companies and the best of the light and power corpora tions, and industrial issues, such as j United States Steel ss. Smelters Os j and Westinghouse and Wetersn Elec- i trie ss, were firm. There was a heavy tone, on the other hand, to t.lie semi speculative bonds of manufacturing companies which was conspicuous in United States Rubber os and "Vis, Goodyear ss. Armour o'-s and in the Sinclair issues. Marine 6s. after an early decline, advanced above 104. Local traction issues were V 4 to Vi lower. Japanese Municipals Strong. In the foreign group the feature was the unusual activity in Japanese municipals. City of Yokohama and City of Tokio bonds were up V* to % and the government issues a little less. There will probably be new financing in behalf of Japan shortly. French issues continued to gain slow ly. and in some quarters of the Ger man list there was further improve ment. However, scattered liquidation gave this group an irregular appear ance. South Americans were gener ally higher. " . . . United States Government bonds rallied from yesterday’s decline. The best buying 'was in the long Treas ury certificates. A new issue of bonds 10 take care of approximately $750.- 000,000 of second Liberty 4 >4B which will be unredeemed on November 15 is to be made and the terms of it an nounced on Monday.

COTTON LOSES GAIN OF EARLY TRADING Lack of Buying Power After Initial Rise Lets Prices Slip Off. By the Awociated Pres*. NEW YORK, November 4. —The cotton market opened steady today at an advance of 7 to 12 points on buy ing apparently based on relatively steady Liverpool cables and a tend ency to reduce estimates of the crop. The buj ing was not particularly ac tive, ho er. and, after selling up to 20.90 for January and 21.18 for May, or about 12 to 13 points net higher, the market cased hack to about yes terday’s closing quotations under real izing. Two private crop reports were is sued, one placing the indication at 12,735,000 bales, against 13,250,000 last month, while the other made the indi cation 12,558,000 bales, compared with a mid-October indication of 12.663.000 bales. The latter report estimated the ginning of 9,861,000 bales, or at 78 p c- tof the indicated crop. The market remained quiet later with the price movement comparative ly narrow. After selling off to 20.75 for January, the market advanced to 20.91 for that position on a renewal of covering, but the bulge was not fully maintained. At midday the market was quiet at net advances of 4 to 5 points. New York Cotton Exchange members, on the average, according to a canvass made, here this morning, expect a crop estimate of 12,555,000 bales. wheaTvalueTdrop IN TODAY’S DEALINGS Selling of Grain Into Storage and Shipload Arrival Factor!—Corn Prices Are Firm. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO. November 4.—Wheat prices underwent an early setback to day, influenced by selling of wheat into storage here and by arrival of an other shipload from Duluth. It was pointed out, however, that the Duluth cargo was of premium character and unlikely to be delivered on speculative contracts. Opening unchanged to He off, wheat later sagged all around. Corn, oats and provisions were firm, corn starting unchanged to He higher and subsequently holding here to initial figures. Increases to the stock of wheat in Chicago today were emphasized by word that the amount of wheat at Minneapolis had enlarged 925,000 bushels in the last week and that Win nipeg arrivals were still in excess of the receipts at this timj last year, al though smaller than those of a week back. Meanwhile export business overnight at the Atlantic seaboard ap peared to be again next to nothing. Firmness at times today in the corn market accompanied reports that the Pacific Coast trade is already real Yng into Kansas and Nebraska for cor tat better prices than Omaha or St. L lis are paying. Predictions of clou*y. moist weather over portions of the corn belt ten*' d also to jphold the market. CATONSVILLE* GETS NEW NATIONAL BANK SHORTLY Special Dispatch to The Sta- - .
