led the tone. Sentiment was a
little mixed. Rains over the South
west were fairly general overnight
and stimulated some buying. The
weakness in Liverpool where prices

Stores in Britain, 23O in
U. S., 40 in Canada.

Managers and salespeople in the
Liggett drug stores Of the District

NEW YORK, April 2S.-An
overnight improvement in the sit
uation at Genoa, more favorable
reports from the railroads and the
oil fields, together with the declara-
ton of the regular dividend on the
stock of the Bethlehem Steel Cor
poration were responsible for the
better tone in the stock market in
the early trading today, and prices
at the opening were for the most
part higher than at the previous
close. Some disquieting comment
was occasioned by the suggestions
that the Interstate Commerce Com
mission would cut about $500 ,O00,-
600 a year from the net revenues
of the railroad corporations. This
matter has been so thoroughly
threshed out that 1t would seem
useless to consider II the basis Of
an unfavorable situation in regard
TO railroad stocks.
The strength in the market con-
tinued throughout most of the morn
ing session and industrial stocks
made the best response to buying de-
mand. United States Steel was ac-
tive, fractionally above the opening
price OF 81, and the independent
steel issues were inclined to higher
prices, as a result OF the interest that
has been aroused over the contem-
plated merger of a number of these
companies. Studebaker was more
than a point higher in the early part
of the day. reflecting the imminence
of the directors meeting at South
Bend tomorrow, at which time q
favorable record OF earnings is ex-
pected to be made public.

action will be taken on the retire
ment of the preferred stock, leaving
all the plums for the common stock.

BY MONROE ROBERTS.
Copyright. 1922, by Cosmopolitan


NEW YORK, April 2S.-The New
York-Boston $500,O00 liberty bond
mystery, which has been agitatins
bankers, insurance and surety
agents, as well as postal officials,
since the first of the week has been
neatly solved; in fact, there was no
mystery about the whole matter,
for the bundle OF bonds. which was
sent by registered mail from the
Chase national Bank OF New York
to the Shawmut National Bank OF
Boston, now reposes, and has re-
posed, in the vaults OF the latter
institution. 1t appears that bag.
filled with scrap paper, was mailed
out simultaneously with the treas
ure, and that the latter came under
the scrutinizing eye Of the Boston
clerks, who Immediately raised the
hue and cry. The use OF pistols
and alarm gongs is not the only
way TO foil bank and mail robbers.
New bond offerings in the amount
OF s4,470,O0O are announced for to-
days market. These include:
Two million dollars in serial per
cent sinking fund bonds OF the Pro-
ducers and Refiners Corporation.
One million seven hundred and fifty
million dollars in State of California
serial per cent highway bonds, to
yield 4.20 per cent.
Five hundred thousand dollars in
serial per cent improvement bonds
OF the city of Los Angeles, TO yield
f.35 per cent.
Five hundred Thousand dollars in
ten-year per cent sinking-fund
bonds of the Cadet Knitting Com
pany, to yield 7h per cent.
The investment community is very
much interested in the statement OF
New York city officials that no
further offerings of long term bonds
will be made for at least two years.
At that time they hopefully antici-
pate a borrowing rate as low as 3h&
per cent. The assessed value of New
York is placed at sl0,24O, ,9O3,836 and
the gross bonded debt s1,302, ,S75,l50.
From this, however, should be de-
Quoted the holdings OF the sinking
fund commission and the city invest
ment in water supply property,
which is revenue-producing, leaving
a net debt OF 1882, ,39s, ,42S, or about
.7.6 per cent Of the assessed valuation.
Irregular movements which may
be expected to take place from time
to time In the bond market may be
attributed to the two principal
causes OF profit-realzing by the
spectators who have been attracted
by the possibilities in this division Of
the financial markets, and to the
withdrawal of funds for commercial
purposes.
II is no compliment to business in
general that funds are compelled to
seek employment in securities when
they might rather be employed in
the production and distribution of
goods. When bond prices have been
brought TO the point where their
yield is fairly in line with current
money rates, their speculative posi-
bilities cease, and are therefore no
longer attractive to the active bond
traders who are looking for day-to-
day fluctuations in prices.
