SLIGHT REACTION
' NOTED IN BONDS
Market Affected by Liquida
tion in Stocks —Industrials,
Public Utilities Inactive.
BY CHARLES F. SPEARE.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. February 17.—Bonds
vere to some extent today affected by
the liquidation in stocks The specula
tive members of the domestic list re-'
acted moderately as stocks declined
and as they acre affected by con
vertible privileges. There was another
wave of liquidation in the issues of two
of the Southern roads. whl' v > had a
somewhat disturbing e‘~ect
In this movement Seaboard Alt '.me
adjustments declined 3 points, selling
2 points under last week's low level.
The refunding 4s broke l points and
the various issues of 6 per cent bonds
mere off a point. This depression ap
parently took no account of the official
statement that the outlook for the road
was improving, that expenses were
under control and traffic prospects bet
ter. Florida East Coast refunding 5s
continued to react in spite of the tact
that they are now on a 6 per cent basis
and off 15 points from the high of last :
year.
Drop in Industrials.
Such industrials as J. Kayser 5 l 2» :
Liquid Carbonic 6s. Andes Copper 7s.
Bethlehem Steel 6s. Marine 6s, Pathe >
7s. Dodge 6s and U. S. Rubber 5s were >
Mi lower. The trade situation in the
rubber and tire industry is unsat isfac- j
iorv and prices of the bonds of the ;
companies are feeling the effect of the ;
Severe readjustment in the level of j
•tocks to which they are related.
Public utilities were not so active as >
on the day previous, although they held
most of their gains. Rails were irregu- ;
lar. Fnsco prior lien 4s advanced %
in anticipation of the new financing, i
Union Pacific 4 Us sold below par for the i
first time in some weeks.
In the foreign department the
strength in Belgian government issues
was the outstanding feature. The ,s
moved up to 108 U. where they were a ,
point above German 7s and one-half
point higher than French 7s. French j
7u s touched 116%. which duplicated
their previous high price. Japanese
municipals. Argentine Peruvian. Bra- j
Titian and Scandinavian issues were
strong.
V. S. Treasury Issue j Feature.
The demand for United States Treas
ury certificates again attracted atten
tion. There was a gain of from ’a to
% point in the various issues, which
are now within point us the best ,
prices of January. So sass this move
ment has had no effect ofi either the
first or fourth Liberty 4%5, which are ,
the only remaining bonds of this group
with any considerable length cf life.
This week's new issues amounted to
only 585.000.000. comparing with 5151,- j
000.000 last week and $208,000,500 two ,
weeks ago.

PRICES IRREGULAR
IN CURB DEALINGS
List Fluctuates Noticeably,
With Main Changes on
Upward Grade.
BY WILLIAM F. HEFI’ERNAN.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, February 17.—Ignoring
favorable developments in the over
night news, operations for the rise in
the curb market today were carried on
only in issues where there were special
incentives. The list as a whole fluctu
ated irregularly, but with the main
price changes on the side of advance.
There appeared to be no top for the
spectacular Bancitaly shares, which
were carried up more than 6 points
further. Repeated warning of exces
sive speculation by officials of the com
pany went unheeded and there was rea
son to believe that a technical comer
i had been brought about. The president
of the Bank of Italy was credited witl
| the statement today that “there is no
i assurance, whatever negotiations may
be in progress, that they will.be con
cluded.” Tills was in reference to the
| proposed merger with Eastern banking
j interests.
Pipe Line issues were carried into
new high ground, with Prairie Pipe
still responding to the estimate that
1927 earnings would be around $27 a
j share. At 216 the price was up 6
points. Illinois Pipe Line crossed 187
; after leaving off Thursday at 180.
I Northern Pipe Line advanced another
j point to a new top at 105. In the case
I of this class cf oil companies heavy
I production of the past year apparently
I has worked out favorably because of m
i creased pipeline runs, whereas it has
j acted adversely against the producers
i and refiners. Vacuum Oil felt the es
; feet of the first cut in crude oil prices
! since last Spring more than most others
i The new Drug Products. Inc., capital
f stock of no par value, was admitted to
trading. The price fluctuated actively
between 80 5 B and 80 most of the session
Donler Die Casting made a new high,
as did Sparks Withington, which was
reflecting prospects of increased dis* j
tributions

COTTON SHOWS GAINS
IN EARLY TRADING
t
Advance of 16 to 20 Points Noted,:
But Sag Follows Early
Buying.
j
NEW YORK. February 17 (<4*l.—The
i cotton market opened steady today at
1 an advance of 10 to 15 points on rela
| tively firm Liverpool cables and belief
| that rains in west Texas had been ln-
I sufficient to relieve droughty conditions.
The advance met realizing, but offerings
I were comparatively light and buying
j continued. May contracts advanced to
j 18.28 and October to 18 16 by the end j
of the first hour, or about 16 to 20
points net higher.
Private cables reported hedging, and
Manchester liquidation had been ab- j
sorbed by calling and local buying in
Liverpool, but that the cloth turnover
with India had been disappointing, al- j

BOSTON WOOL PRICES !
STILL TEND UPWARD,
Fine Products Offer Greatest Op- j
portunity for Business—Foreign
Markets Report Good Clearances, j
BOSTON, February 17 m.— The
Commercial Bulletin tomorrow will say:
"The wool market Is still rising. Both
i In the local market and In the foreign
markets prices are against the buyer by
par to 5 per cent for the week. Fine
wools in the market offer the greatest i
opportunity for business, medium wools '
being well nigh exhausted. t
“About 110,000,000 pounds of wool are j
estimated to have been placed under!
contract in the range State of the West,
prices are fully maintained throughout
the West.
"Manufacturers are making slight |
advances already on medium-wooled
goods, initial openings of which were :
made about three weeks ago.
"Foreign markets this week are rising, j
Good clearances are reported in all
primary markets.
“Mohair is firm but not very active
here, there being little available in the
market. Small lots have been taken on
the goat's back in Texas. Foreign mar
kets are steady.
"The rail and water shipments of j
wool from Boston from January 1, 1928
to February 16, 1928 inclusive, were
33.217.000 pounds, against 30,660.000
pounds for the same period last year.
The receipts from January 1, 1928 to
February 16, 1928 inclusive were 32,165.-
400 pounds, against 40,165,600 pounds
for thfe same period last year.”

DOMESTIC WINTER WHEAT
GOES TO LOWER LEVEL
j Chicago Market Affected by Fa
vorable Crop Outlook—Grain
and Provisions Easier.
CHICAGO. February 17 OP).—lnflu
enced by snowstorms making crop con
ditions more favorable for domestic
; Winter wheat, values averaged lower
in the wheat market early today. Be
sides, confirmation of reported big pur
chases of Canadian wheat for Russia
remained lacking. After a start at
% decline to a shade advance wheat
underwent a moderate general setback.
Com, oats and provisions were also
easier, com opening unchanged to * 2 a
off. and subsequently keeping near
to the initial figures.
Skepticism about reports of big buy
ing of wheat from Canada to be ship
ped to Russia showed itself quite
pointedly at times today. Liverpool ad
vices were to the effect that no trace
of any Russian buying was apparent,
and it was pointed out here that the
j Baltic is usually icebound at this time,
remaining so until about the date that
| Spring navigation is resumed on the
I American Great Lakes
j The most definite fresh news avail
; able today concerning breadstuff pur
chases for. Russia was that a little
flour and wheat, both from North
America and Argentina, has been
i bought by Russia. It also was stated
that Russia will be in the market from
i now on, but in a conservative way.
j In some quarters it was surmised that
i if Russia is deficient in her Winter
wheat acreage and desires to increase
her Spring wheat area seed wheat from
I Canada would be the natural method
! of acquiring necessary seed, and if she
! is short of seed wheat she might easily
be in need of wheat for food.
