Curb Market

New York, May 29.-An accumu-
lation of buying orders by stock eX-
change houses and purchases by
floor traders caused sharp advances
in the Standard Oil issues on the
curb exchange today. These stocks
were the leaders and dealings were
larger than they have been at any
time recently. New highs were
made in the Indiana, New York and
Kentucky shares, in Imperial Oil of
Canada, and in International. Pc
troleum, Vacuum Oil was in good
points, and AngIo-American Oil
was also well taken at higher fig
ures.
Price movements in the indie
pendent oils weer confined within
smaller limits but these stocks
were for the most part strong.
Fensland reached a new high rec
ord and so did Caribbean syndi
cate. Salt Creek Consolidated also
made a new high mark, and there
was a better demand for Maracaibo,
Mutual Oil and Merritt Oil. The
Cities Service issues were some
what irregular. Low priced shares,
notably Creole Syndicate and Ma
rine Oil acted in sympathy with the
strength in the high priced stocks.
New high records were also es-
tablished in several of the motor
stocks, including Cleveland and
REQ. The buying of Cleveland
came from a prominent stock ex-
change house. There was also good
demand for Hudson. Motor and
Peerless moved narrowly, while
the Durant issues were somewhat
easier. Philip Morris started some

II was field day for the pools
IN industrial stocks. More of these
were taken up at one time or an
other than in any stock exchange
session for long while. Motor
accessories stocks all through the
bull campaign have trailed the
motors. Usually they have nos
started until the moves in the lat
ter have had day or so to get in
full swing. The position of the
two groups is similar. for they both
represent manufacturing concerns
doing rushing business and far
behind in their orders. Gray Davis
led the way and was followed by
Bosch Magnetic and Stromberg. An
other remarkable demonstration
was given of the confidence of the
coca cola pool based upon expecta-
tions that the month of May would

the railway shares run wild on the
over-Sunday news of the wage re-
duction were disappointed. The
fact was that this action had been
pretty well anticipated and the rails
merely took their proportionate
place in the market of the day.
The soft coal group, Norfolk &
Western, Chesapeake & Ohio and
Baltimore & Ohio, gave a particu-
larly good account of themselves.
HYDRAULIC STEEL.
Hydraulic Steel shares were very
active again today at higher prices.
A rush of new buying came into
the stock on news of the sale of
one Of its big plants to United Al
10y Steel. There are also intima-
tions of another deal with one OF
the automobile parts companies.
The name of Spicer Manufacturing
has been mentioned in this connec-
ton although if negotiations are
on they have not reached the stage
where any official corroboration
would be warranted.

Bond Market
BY STUART P. WEST
Copyright, 1927

New York, May 29-The week
began with signs that underwrit-
ing syndicates Were inclined TO go
slow, at least for the time being,
to give the investment market time
to digest the record breaking vol
ume of new securities which have
been put out since the first OF the
year. There were no new offer
ings or Importance over the week
end. An interesting incident OF the
day was the outcome OF a $,44T,o ,oOo
city of Philadelphia 80 year 4 per
cent loan. Representatives OF the
city sinking fund put in the high
est bid, 101.76, and got the award.
One of the features in the bond
market of the day was the strength
Of French government issues, the
SIS going up over a half point at
one time to 104 and the 712s max
ing a similar gain and selling at
102. This improvement reflected
the hopeful sentiment in banking
circles regarding the proposal for a
German loan, the bulk Of which
would be devoted to reparations
payments. Denmar IS were up a
point to Ill. United States war
loans were very little changed, but
held around their highs. with the
fourth 4As selling steadily at par.
Railway bonds were even less az
fected than railway stocks by the
action of the labor board in reduc-
ing wage scales. With Baltimore x
Ohio shares above so for the first
time, the bonds of the company
moved scarcely any. Erie prior As
gained a half point and the con-
vertible DIS made a new high across

we're also in demand close to their
high. The sharp advance in Mar
land started an eager buying move
ment in the convertible 71Rs bonds
which carried them above ITO.
With the Copper metals at IA cents
and more active interest in copper
securities in the markets both here
and abroad, the two most represen-
tative issues dealt in New York
Stock Exchange. Cerro De Pasco
and Chile Copper IS were conspicu-
ously strong. Brooklyn Rapid Tran
