(Compiled by the Associated Press.)
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. May 8.—With price
swings generally narrow and mixed,
rails lost a little ground in today's
bond market.
This movement, however, was com
pensated by further moderate gains in
a fair number of low yield issues, in
cluding United States Governments.
Top grade ratings were still respon
sive to a number of developments in
the week pointing to a revival of in
stitutional interests in new issues and
prolongation of the era of low money
rates.
United States Governments moved
on an even keel with several gains
panging from 1 32d to 4 32ds of a
point. Higher prices were also paid
for Pacific Gas 334s. Remington Rand
■ 4>4s, Texas Corp. 3>2s. Western Union
5s, American Telephone 3’ts and
Loews 3!2s.
With the medium priced rails it was
ft case of yielding some of the gains
made during the week. Losses ran
from fractions to a point in Great
Northern 4s, Chesapeake Corp., 5s,
8t. Paul 5s, Erie 5s. Pennsylvania Gen
eral 4'is, Frisco 4'=s and Nickel
Plate 4'2s.
COTTON REMAINS
AT STEADY LEVELS
Improved Technical Position
i After Recent Decline I»
Apparent in Week.
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 8.—Cotton was
•teady this week in quiet trading.
Reflecting the improved technical
position following recent heavy liqui
dation and less nervousness over out
side influences, prices advanced $1 a
.bale, carrying the market up *2 from
recent lows. July recovered from
12.86 to 13.19 and closed yesterday at
13.08, compared with 13.01 a week ago.
* The trade gave more attention to
feather and crop developments. Part
«f the buying was attributed to an
Unfavorable view of continuous rains
.In the Centra! and Eastern belts which
■retarded plantings, and low tempera
tures which checked germination,
i While conditions in the Western belt
•Were regarded more favorably, moist
lure is said to be needed. Hesitancy
to buy more actively on these features
'was due to the outlook for a larger
•acreage, private estimates this week
ipointing to increases of about 10 to
^13 per cent over last year.
The trade was also inclined to wait
tor more definite indications on the
■character of the crop start during the
;next month or so. Spot cotton mar
kets were dull.
