Buying Light,

New York City's sale OF S7l,000,o 1000
Of corporate stock yesterday furnished
some encouragement in spite Of the
high rate Of interest, 4l9 per cent, and
the comparatively small premium OBJ
tanned. Idle money is piling up in the
banks rather than finding lOdgment IN
long term bonds, yet Si6,OOOOOO OF the
city's offering was in tifty-year maturi-
ties. Total applications were more
than four times the sum asked for and
individual bids numbered over two
hundred. Of which two covered the en-
tire issue.
With investment business still not
recovered from the shock that followed
the sinking of the Lusltanla. and not
vet adjusted 10 Great Brita'n'S placing
her debt on Az per cent basis, the
city officials have been successful IN
borrowing at rate more favorable
than that obtained by the British gov
eminent. Bond dealers felt that had
the city been obliged TO postpone ITS
application for funds the effect on the
investment market would have been
most depressing. To the general pub
lie. however. the result Of the sale was
disappointing. When first announced
the bonds were dealt in at around lU3'
but in investment circles the price oo-
tanned for the issue was about what
had been expected.
The city's financing checked buying

Sterling exchange was frmer for
awhile. with come purchasing for re-

securities sold here. At the end OF the
day, however. the rate broke again TO
its lowest. The Continental exchanges
were depressed to new levels. Exports
last week were less than the week be-
fore, and the favorable trade balance
fell to around S9,O0O,0Oo, but at this
time Of year exports are ordinarily
much lighter, and our trade position
continues Overwhelmingly strong. In
