BOND LIST SLOW, WITH
PRICES RATHER WEAK

NEW YORK. October 1.-THE bond
market was not any more active than
the stock market. but it was steadier.
The liberty bond department of the
list was the most active and all of the
issues showed a gain on the day. The
third and fourth 4 u s were the most
active and also showed the most adj
vance. Taken as a whole, the mark It
showed very few price changes. The
rest of the government group was
practically at a standstill.
In the railway issues, there also
was quite n bit of activity with the
convertibles. Southern Pacific con-
vertible as showed a slight easing of
price, as did ST. Louis and San Fran
cisco prior lien AS. Ontario and
Western As were rather active and
in demand around 81. while Union
Pacific 6s eaSed off close to half a
point.
1nterborough Rapid Transit refund
ing 5s advanced close to their high
price for the year. selling at 5414. the
high for the year being only a point
higher. The Third Avenue adjust
ments were off a point and u half TO
SO on a very small turnover. The
same thing is taking place in the
bond market that has been noted in
the stock market, TO wit, that those
who have profits are inclined to take
them.
