Higher Money Rates Is Specter Ouer Bonds

NEW YORK, March 26.-The spectre of higher money rates continued to hang over the bond market today with the uneasiness rendered more acute by spec ulative fear that the federal reserve board governors meeting in Washington might lead to another increase in the re- discount rate. Prices sagged through out the list with the establishment Of new low records for the year by tho sec- ond, third and fourth Liberty 4As and yioilent 19 point drop in Dery X Co., 7s on report of new financing as the days prin cipal features.
 There were a few outstanding excep- tions to the reactionary trend, notably Serbian ss Northern Pacific prior lien As and Union Tank Car Is, all of which closed about a point higher. Except for a drop of IS in Mexican 5s the reces- sions in the foreign group were limited to fractions. The net loans in the United States government bonds ranged from one thirty second to ten-thirty- y-second of l point.
 Disappointment over the relatively poor showing of the first February railroad earnings statements stimulated the iqui- dation in the railroad division. although good buying support was forthcoming and losses with the exception of Katy" prior lien Gs which dropped & points. were held to fractions Industrials eased in sympathy with the reactionary trend of stock prices, U. s.

SUGAR MARKET

NEW YORK. March 2s.-Raw sugar was steadier at the close today. Cubas were held at 57-1sc, cost and freight equal to 7.22c for centrifugal. and Porto Ricos at the same level. but no sales were reported.
 An early decline of to points. due to scattered liquidation and trade selling, was followed by a sharp reaction in raw sugar futures which carried prices to 15 points above the close of last week. The upturn was prompted by continued reports of a smaller out turn in Cuba. The president of the Royal Bank of Canada declared there will be decrease of 500- GOO tons in the Cuban crop from earlier estimates of 100000 tons, owing to the dry season. Realizing checked the ad- vance and caused reactions of several points. with final prices 5 to 13 points net higher. Closng May. 5.52c: July, 5.73c; September. 5.S7c: December. 5.67o.

NEW YORK. March 26.-Prices in today's curb market were decidedly reactionarY. but exception in few exceptional cases the net losses were held ? points or less The downward movement, like that on the big board" resulted from heavy specula- tive liquidation engendered by fear of higher money rates.
 Most of the selling centered in the oil group, which has borne the brunt of the speculation of the last few months. Net losses of 1 to points were registered by Gulf of Pennsyl vania, Imperial of Canada. Ohio and Standard Oils of Indiana, Kansas and Kentucky. Maraicobo also was ac tive, losing 7s of a point.

HUBBARD BROS. LETTER

NEW YORK, March 26.-Liverpool was very weak again this morning. being some 30 American points lowe rthan ex- pected, with result that our market again broke sharply. catching stop loss orders and making new low. Sufficient trade calling and new outside buying ap- peared to check the decline Market has acted feversh and uneasy during the greater part of the session. The fact that the May position in Liverpool is selling at practically the same figures as the May position in New York has caused a great deal of comment. it is felt that either the Liverpool market is en- tirely too low or the New York market is entirely too high.
 We think that most of the weakly held cotton has been sold and that while we may have some slightly further decline that the market has very nearly reached bottom. for the time being at least. espe- cally more rains are expected over the belt. Futures in Liverpool due tomorrow: May, 14.24d; July. 14.05d.
 DOREMUS. DANIEL & CO.'S LETTER
 NEW YORK. March 26-ITnconfirmed ed reports that the federal reserve board is about to take active steps to prevent the country being swept into another period ket today adversely. Shortly after noon there was general selling of rails steels and equipments, which the market seemed to absorb wit.l:n range of 1lh to 2 points. Apparently the fact is overlooked d that we have some $40,000,00 cash credit available without recourse to the federal reserve banks.
 There is no need for business reac- ton such as transpired in 1920, nor should there be maj or reaction in the securi- ties market under these conditions. After today's reaction we believe the rails, equipments and steels are a purchase.

The radio craze is slowly gaining u
hold in this community, at first being
only the spasmodic enthusiasm of one
or two, who were getting Indifferent
results. Now, however, real stuff is
being picked from the ether. and
more and more inquiries are being
heard as to how much a set costs and
how far one can hear.
1t will not be long until we have n
radio shop here, as have lots of other
towns no larger than Orovilie.
For the present nearly all those
amateurs in this locality having sets
in working order are free with their
invitations to "come listen in.
1t almost seems like spring here
