Although conditions in the bond
market were quiet last week there
was a fairly good demand for high
grade issues of the longer maturi-
ties. At the same time short term
notes continued in favor, as was
shown by the quick sale of an is
sue of 100000 estinghouse
Electric 6 per cent one-year notes
on a 7 per cent basis. One or two
other short term fotations of small
amounts were made during the week
on the same basis Of income yield.
Some other new offerings are said
to be under consideration, the sue
cess Of recent offerings having
created feeling of confidence on
the part Of the bankers in the
ability of the market to absorb such
new issues as may be essential.
Much interest was manifested in
investment banking circles in the
Washington announcement Of a.
new $400,000,000 4 per cent GER
tificatc of indebtedness issue bear
ing interest from January 20 and
payable April o. This was taken
to mean that the third Liberty Loan
would be offered about the first OF
March and that the first payment
would coincide with the maturity
of the new certificate issue Wall
Street is still in the dark as to the
terms of the next government war
loan, estimates Of the amount
ranging from $6,000,0O0, 900 to
100000, 1000. In financial cir
cles the opinion has been expressed
that an increase in the interest
rate will have to be made if the
bonds are to be sold at par, for the
outstanding 4s are now selling in
the open market at a substantial
discount.

The Canadian Bank of Commerce in

There is reduction in the output
OF many kinds of shells, fuses and

restricted to certain sizes. On the
other hand, however, there is an i'm
portant development in the building of
steel and wooden ships and OF aero
plane engines, and also of aeroplanes
CT certain type. With these excep-
tions there is large decrease in pur-
chases by Great Britain, due doubtless
to the inability of Canada to grant the
necessary credits. 1t is therefore most

WALL STREET OFFICE:
Mills Building, 15 Broad St.

Security prices were not much
affected last week by the Garfield
order, but it is almost certain that
this drastic action eventually will
prove to be more important factor
in the stock market than was indi-
Gated by the comparatively stolid
reception accorded it last week.
All that can be said at present is
that the effects have been deferred
for a time. Unquestionably the
shutdown of industry in the East
will exercise an adverse influence
on earnings for the current quarter.
1t remains now to be seen whether
by clearing up the railroad con-
gestion through the suspension of
industrial activities it may be pos
sible later on to speed up produc-
ton to a rate which will compen-
safe for the loss in time and money
caused by the shut down. There
fore, it will take some time before
the security markets can accurately
measure the full effects of the
order. That the stock market gave
such a good account of itself last
week in the face of the announce
ment speaks we'll of the present
position of securities. One can
easily imagine what might have
happened had the Garfield order
been unexpectedly thrust into the
situation one or two months ago
when the markets were in state
bordering on complete demoraliza-
ton. 1t is quite evident now that
the markets in the prolonged de-
cline of last year discounted almost
the worst that could happen.
New-York tribune., 1918-01-21

Financial operations of the
United States government have
tended to cause a general harden
ing Of money at this centre. A
substantial reduction in the total
of government deposits with New
York banks took place last week
and the shifting of balances re-
suited in a general advance in
rates. Another factor in the situa-
tion was the payment on Tuesday
of the final instalment on the sub
scription account of the second
Liberty Loan. This called for the
payment of about $60,OOO,OO0 in
the New York district. At the
Stock Exchange call money rose to
6 per cent, the lack of sufficient
offerings to meet the requirements
of the market making it necessary
for the local bankers committee to
draw on it's $1OO,O00,000 pool to
ease the situation. Rates for fixed
maturities were also fractionally
higher, the market ranging from
b X to 6 per cent. Banks are still
careful about increasing their COM
mltments in time loans in view of
the many uncertainties by which
the industrial and financial world
IS confronted. Commercial paper
held steady at 51@ to 5A per cent
with not much business done.
