INTEREST RATES
CONTINUE TOFALL
Trading in Securities on
Diminishing Scale and
Movements Narrow

New York, February Trading in se-
eurities this week was on a diminishing
scale and movements were narrow. The
direction prices established by the Janu-
airy rise were less attractive for invest
ment, and the absorptive capacity of the
market was lessened.
Interest rates continued to fall, but
less swiftly. Paris drew more gold, turn
ing to London as we'll as New York, and
other demands on London helped to check
the weekly fall in money rates.
Increased borrowing also was factor.
Offerings of mercantile paper were larger
both in New York and at interior bank
ing centers refiecting expanding trade
plans.
New York state employed more than
half the proceeds of its S51000,000 bond
sale in payment of notes due.
This process was illustrative of the re-
lief promised through the increase of
capital supplies since the first of the year
by funding the vast note issues which
have tied up the worlds liquid banking
resources.
Maturities of notes for February are
on a larger scale, with larger amounts
in June and July.
Less confidence was felt that freight
rate increases will speedily be granted
because of the Interstate commerce COM
mission decision to investigate Industrial
railway allowances.
The Five Brothers trust bills, "the
proposed New Haven investigation" the
plan for government purchase of tele-
graph and telephone lines, the Senate
hearing on stock exchange regulation and
the Mexican situation combined to make
Washington news a depressing factor.
Trade reports were favorable, but some
misgivings We're felt that improvement
had been overestimated, especially in the
steel trade.
Estimates of high per cent condition of
winter wheat helped sentiment.
