The New York Bond Buyer publishes an
exhaustive table Of municipal bond sales
in the United States during the month OF
April. The totals were 15a different issues
to Ill different bidders. amounting to $lb,-
15l,651. In addition five bond offerings, one
Of them from a western irrigation District
were not taken up. These aggregated
$4,000. The journal mentioned says that
all the details OF the statement show con-
clusively the municipal bond business Is
in its normal state. and that large sales
are the natural result Of wholesome de-
mand' by permanent investors for this class
Of securities. Any person who has watched
the course Of the business for the last few
years cannot have failed to see that con-
lidence in this species Of Investments has
been constantly growing. and II now upon
substantial basis. This Is further
evinced by reference to the disposition
OF bonds by localities. While less than half
OF the area OF the country Is represented
a. disposing Of bonds. the increase in the
amount sold has been at least $4,000, 900
above the average monthly sales for the
past three years.
Another interesting feature is that the
majority Of sales for the month were made
to regular dealers In municipal bonds Of
such an established reputation that they
are enabled without trouble or delay to
release their holdings to the savings banks
and other institutions which now largely
invest In municipals. The following figures
show comparative sales since January /,
1897. as against the sales of the same
months of 1895:
