BOND LIST SHOWS
SOME GOOD GAINS

NEW YORK. October 19.-The prin-
cipal changes in today's bond market
were nearly all of them in the direc-
tion of higher prices. New high
records We're made in a number of
foreign government issues. among
them Argentine 5s. which were up
over a point: City of Berne IS, Zurich
SIS. which rose a point: Sweden IS.
which reached 90s.. and Swiss SIS. The
Mexican 5s and As were quite weak.
tinued delay in settling the question
y" N" MEXICAN debt. Liberty bonds
were steady, but very little changed.
E. IT. the exception of the sugar
issucs-Cuban-Ame Sugar SIS and
Cuba Cane IS. both of which were
weak-there were numerous advances
in the industrial group. Despite the
weakness in Central Leather stocks
and the expectation of another poor
showing in the statement for the Sep
tember. quarter. the Central Leather
IS were in demand again. They sold
up to 81 as against S61k. their low.
reached soon after the appearance of
quarter. American Telephone and
Telegraph 5s were up over a point to
a new top for the year
Other industrials which bettered
their previous nigh records Tor 1921
were Kings County Electric and
Power convertible IS, Wilson & Co.
convertible 6s and Philadelphia Com
pany 5s of 1922.
There was unusual activity in
United States Steel sinking fund 5s.
which at ao1a were selling at the best
price reached in some time.
Railway bonds were generally
steady. with few advances. Kansas
City Southern IS rallied a point to 70.
and Virginia Railway 5s, ST Louis and
San Francisco incomes and Missouri
Pacific general As. half to three-quar-
ters of a point.
There does not appear to have been
any significance to the break yester-
day in the Missouri Pacific first and
refunding So of 1865. which were vir-
tually a first lien upon the old Mis-
souri, Pacific property. 1t Is under
stood that there are orders in the
market for 100000 of these bonds at
SO1s
