While activity in the Belgian yarn

BOND DROP WIPES
OUT EARLY GAINS
React, During Week, in Pro-
portion to Rapidity of
Previous Advances.

NEW YORK, Dec. .4-The halt
point reaction in the average price
of forty representative bonds dur
ing the past week measures the
trend of the market. but IL does not
begin to register the losses in spe-
cial issues. AS general rule
bonds have reacted in proportion
to the rapidity of their previous
gains, and in this there is a sugges-
ton of the speculative interest that
was built up in particular issues
on the rise from June to the first
week of the present month. =
The present reaction is an event
in a forward movement. The down
ward swing has become more than
profit taking reaction. In its lat
est phase the market presents a
picture of the present saturation
by a series of new issues in ever
increasing volume. The weeks
s14S 900. 900 of new loans brought
the total for four weeks up to $44o,-
100000. Thus the market has thus
been called upon to assimilate a
greater aggregate of new issues
than at any time since last May,
or just before the market sold to
the lowest level of the year. 1t is
not wise or proper to assume that
the latest increase in the floating
supply will be followed by a decline
similar to that in June, because the
situation has changed in its more
important details. Since June a
tremendous amount of frozen credft
has been liquidated- The banks
and industrial corporations have
surfeited with idle funds, and there
is still a great volume of credit to
be released.
A year ago the bond market was
beginning to profit by the custo-
mary reinvestment demand. In the
present instance 1t is Just possible
that investment houses have been
banking too strongly on the Janu-
airy demand. 1t will probably be
found that during the last two
months of the forward movements
in bonds the major part of this re.
investment demand was flled
through the medium of bank Dor
rowings.
