Bonds Show Strength
In tlustered Market

NEW YORK. Sept 2S.-(A. P.)-
| Extremely conflicting conditions pre-
vailed in the financial markets yester-
| day. Stocks were dun and frequently
| reactionary, while bonds were active,
some of the liberty and Victory issues
mounting to new records for the year.
These contrary movements were rem
dered more obscure by stiffening of
money rates, further cross currents in
foreign exchange and mixed Industrial
! conditions, including the less promis-
ing labor outlook.
Heaviness of foreign oils, especially
Mexican Petroleum, and pressure
against standard rails with Pennsyl-
vania as the main objective, helped to
unsettle the, general list. Steels, equip
ments and various specialties which
owe their rise or fall to pools also
We're lower in the absence of support.
Sales were 435, 900 shares.
Call money opened at 5 per cent, but
an unusually heavy inquiry forced the
rate to 1-2 per cent at midday. hold
ing at that figure for the remainder
of the session. Time loans running in
to next year were made at 5 1-2 per
cent.
The fall of marks to a level where
they were represented at a value of
$40 of one cent affected central Euro
pean remittances. Austrian, Polish
and Czecho-Slovakian exchanges es-
tablished minimum quotations. Sterl-
ing was firm, French, Belgian and
Italian bills eased, but Dutch and
Swedish rates rose substantially. Far
Eastern exchanges again were note
worthy for another decline in the Jap
an rate and the further advance Of
bills on Shanghai by IL cents.
All bonds were carried forward in
the first half of the session by the ex-
tensive demand for liberty and victory
issues, but the movement was checked
later, when realizing sales caused gem
eral reactions from best prices.
Rails and industrials became ire
gular and most foreign issues devel-
oped similar tendencies. Sales, par

Decrease Shown in
Sheep in Eastern Oregon.

PORTLAND, Sept 2S.-A survey by
counties of the present status of the
wool industry in Orergon and Wash
ington is being made by the Oregon
Wool && Mohair. Growers association.
The work is only partially completed.
but sufficient statistics have been
gathered to show some interesting
data.
| For example: The majority of east
ern Oregon counties report a decrease
of from to 25 per cent in the number
of sheep on hand at present as COM
pared with last year. In the western
Oregon counties the association finds
that as whole. the decrease over last
year, If any, has been very slight. In
fact, some counties show slight in
rrease.
The survey also shows the need of
holding over eve lambs in eastern
Oregon to replace many of the eve
bands which are becoming quite aged.
The survey showsthe demand for
pure bred bucks in the entire state to
be much less than in normal years.
Manufacturers are buying wool
steadily in the eastern markets as their
needs require. The demand is pretty
general as regards grades, however,
fine, medium and coarse descriptions
being in request and prices for all
grades steady, with low grades some
what stronger than they were.
During the past fortnight the gnit-
ting yarn mills are reported to have
been more active and have taken fair
quantities of quarter and three
eighths combing woods. showing
preference for quarter-blood grades,
which hitherto have been rather neg
lected and were consequently easy in
price. The demand has had tenden-
cy to strengthen prices on these woods
slightly as the demand for low grade
woods for sport clothes has had a
