Bond Market
BY STUART p. WEST
tCopyrisht. 1s2zl

New York, June 29.-Although
railway bonds continued the most
active today, there was no indica-
ton that the upbidding of this
group of a couple of days ago was
anything more than a temporary
squirt. A number of issues went
ahead fractionaiIy. but there were
about as many small declines as adj
vances. Few bonds during the day
passed their previous high records
In the United States government
section, too, prices fell off quite
generally with the second 4A s
breaking below par again. The
fourth AVS were close to their
Wednesday closing level of 100-24.
Mexican government AS and SIS be-
came stronger on word from the
Mexican president branding as false
the story that Americans had been
kidnapped in the Tampico district.
French 1-2's dipped to par and
the Paris Lyons and Mediterranean
Company's G's were lower. United
Kingdom 5 1-2's were shade under
the final prices of the preceding
day A feature of the foreign
group was the buying of the Cuba
1-2's and SIS, both of which
struck new highs for the year.
Among the higher priced railway
bonds, the Union Pacific converti-
bic AS, Baltimore and Ohio As,
Southern Pacific convertible AS
and Michigan Central debentures
were a half point or so lower. New
York, Winchester and Boston
1-2's, New Orleans, Texas and
Mexico SIS and the higher priced
favorites were generally steady.
Brooklyn Rapid Transit rs ad-
vaneed again on favorable earnings
of the company.
Pennsylvania issues, Great Nor
thern rs and Baltimore and ONO
SIS encountered some selling.
There were no noteworthy Incl
dents in the industrial section.
American Sugar SIS did better and
Public Utility securities as a rule
were strong. Lorillard SIS gained
ground while the Atlantic Fruit
rs worked lower. Pierce Oil SIS
soffened.
The principal offering of new
bonds today was $4,000 State
of Missouri percent gold coupon
notes, due serially until 1886. Mu-
nicipal and Public Utility issues,
aggregating comparative small
amount, were floated successfully
by banking houses.

DryCoods Market
BY STUART p. 1ESR
(Copyright. 15.2.y

New York, June 29.-Pre-holiday
dizziness pervaded the drygoods
market today. although prices for
the standard construction in print
cloths were maintained. There was
little shading at second hands in
evidence. There was some holding
off in expectation of the forthcom-
Ing raw cotton report but there
were more bids than offers for flu
ture deliveries at current prices.
Sheetings were quiet. Exporters
wer hunting bargains but found lit
tie encouragement from the mills.
Some demand was shown for drills
and hose and belt materials were
wore active. Sateens and Innings
were stagnant.
The silk market was slow but the
technical position was strong.
There was some evidence of profit
taking on silks bought a short time
ago at lower prices.
WOOL.
Boston, June 29-Sales transfer
ring wool holdings from one dealer
TO another formed the bulk of the
business transacted in Summer
street today. Prices continued to
be well maintained in spite of the
lull preceding July and there
was some evidence of scattered
buying at good prices throughout
the west The Missouri clip is be-
ing rapidly cleaned up. Individual
offerings in Texas have been taken
as fair prices and South Dakota
clips are bringing as high as AZ
cents for choice lots.

MAXWELL MOTORS.

For the second time in three
months Maxwell Motors has called
IN an instaliment of per cent
notes, the latest series not due for
year. The total under the two
calls is S4.S50,000 leaving S7,1T2, 600
outstanding OF which $4,000, 900 are
due in 1928 and the rest in 1924. This
action in anticipating the notes in
dfcates that the favorable state
ments which have been made from
time to time regarding Maxwell's
current earnings and its strong
treasury position have in no way
been exaggerated. The inference is
also drawn that Maxwell is speeding
up the retirement of its notes in
order to begin dividends on the s
per cent preferred A stock
RAILROAD STOCKS.
The market for railway shares
again displayed its Indifference to
the threatened strike. While the oils
were breaking early in the day
there was very little selling OF rail
stocks, and when the rally came
later, It was the rails which were
the leaders. New York Central
stod out conspicuousIy Every
snare of this stock was quietly taken
up with the utmost ease. Baltimore
and Ohio among the medium priced
rails and New Haven among the
lower priced recovered the read
lest of any and the same sort of
buying that has been going on ever
since the declaration of the reg
ulaP dividend continued in Great
Northern preferred.
OIL BREAKS SHARPLY.
1t was shrewd business for the
bearish professionals to concen-
trate their efforts upon the Ameri-
can Oils. In the first place these
stocks In the downward movement
during the first half of June had
lost less of their previous gain
than any other group. This meant
that liquidation of weak accounts
had not gone as far in the oils as it
had elsewhere In the second
place, it was suspected that the
pool in the American Oils had I'M
loaded a lot of stock under cover
of the fireworks in Mexican Pc
troleum and Pan-American, and
that consequently they would not
oppose the same resistance to op-
erations for the decline that they
would have done up to a fortnight
ago.

ployed in the United States and those

sistant clerk Of the committee can
be carried on the pay roll at $2,4O0

while he actually works as a clerk
at the Republican publicity associa-

not aspire to- the exalted positions
held by Senator Mccormick or Sem

Senator Mccormick, speaking in his
official capacity as chairman of the
Republican, senatorial committee,
people do not regard them as fit or
