Answer-The Illinois Central ner
tS tent, 1882, are secured by first lien
through deposit Of seven entire issues
OF hrst mortgage per cent bonds OF
par value of S16,35o, 900 on 864 miles Of +
road. These lines include the main
line extending west of Chicago. We
regard the bond as very good in
i;1 vestmens. The New York Central con
solldated per cent, 1898, are secured
equally with the debenture per cent
1924, and the debenture 4 per cent
l942, by direct, mortgage on 1892
miles of road, subject to S1e6,916'000
of prior liens. We regard them as
very good investment. The following
issues yield per cent and over: Atch7

Reaction Follows Indication
That More Urgent De-
mands of Shorts Had Been
Filled; Near Low Records

mondays advances were lost in the
cotton market yesterday. There was a
renewal OF covering by july shorts at
the start, but the demand was much
Tess active, and as soon as july BEGAN

cane ne more active and aggressive.
ms was encouraged by the con-
tinueo good weather in the South and
the continued unfavorable news from
the goods trade, and the break carried
prices pack nearly to the low levels of
last week IN the case of new crop de-
hverles. December contracts. for in
stance, broke from 323S to 81 .68. COM
pared with 31.61, the low price touched
on the decline of Friday. That de-
iivery, closed at 31.88, with the general
lst closing steady at a net decline of
10 to 81 points.
Ihe feature at the start was the con-
tinued covering by near month shorts l
with July selling at 3795, making an
advance of 35 points from Mondays
close and 245 points from recent low
levels. Other deliveries opened nn-
changed to 5 points higher and there
was some buying on the fairly steady
showing of Liverpool which private
cables said was due to end-month call
ing by splnners. The smaller volume
OF demand, however, suggested that the
III 6CHC requirements OF shorts
had been supplied on the advance of the
previous day and the market soon
turned easier on the favorable weather
news, July sold 35 points net lower
and the new crop showed net losses of
So to II points before the decline was
checked. Rallies followed on covering
but were not fully maintained. and
complaints of low night temperatures
IN eastern belt sections were not taken
very seriously by the average trader.
1t is generally expected that the
weekly report of the Weather Bureau
to-day will make a bearish showing.
and unless there is an unexpected d
change in weather conditions the trade
feels that by the time the June 25 con-
dltlon figures are published on FRIDAY
the crop will have made a further de-
clded Improvement. Southern snot
markets as officially reported were ali
unchanged, except Dallas, which was IS

tations range from that figure up to
41.50 at Savannah.
The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and unchanged at 1915 for mid

Other things being equal favor the
Pressed Steel Car on account OF the larger
yield. NJ. *.
Answer-It is our opinion that in
vestment securities are attractive at
present levels. The high yield is largely
due to the tense money and credit
situation. If this shows signs of he
coming easier, all such issues, which
are we'll secured, should rise in price.
The four equipment preferred stocks
