DEBT NEWS MOVES
BONDS BUT LITTLE
Foreign Issues Steadier and
in Smaller Supply-Home
Obligations Quiet.
BY GEORGE II. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 31.-Alth n
the foreign news was better today
than for some days past, there was
little effect noted in the market for
Great Britain's acceptance of the debt
funding proposals. and continued
hope that Turkey would accept the
terms laid down at Lausanne caused
no really noticeable results.
Foreign bonds were, indeed, some
what steadier and in smaller supply,
but they failed to develop much re-
siliency up TO midafternoon. The
South American group of foreign
bonds was also heavy, with new
low price below 80 for Bolivian IS.
"A bond which has been quite popular
because 1t is not callable before 1887
and on account of the small deb. OF
the country and its generally high
credit. The weakness IN French ,|-
change probably offset some of the
beneficial effects of political develop
ments
Domestic news also failed to play
much OF a part in the course OF
American corporation bonds. 1t is
now understood that there will be
no extra session of Congress. This
in itself should stimulate industry
and allay the anxiety of investors in
railroad bonds, for with no session
after March until December the
transportation act is not likely to
be disturbed.
Railroad bonds of the speculative
type were somewhat easier, although
this might be explained by the Ir-
regularity today throughout the stock
market. Evidence was still abundant
that new issues are still congesting
the investment market and in some
cases are available below original
subscription prices. The New YORK.
traction companies are steadily gain
ing in their increase in net available
fixed charges. which establishes a
greater equity for the widely placed
bonds of these companies.

MEAT DROP GREATEST.
By the Associat ted Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. January 31.-John T
Russell of Chicago, president of the
National Association of Meat Councils
and executive committeeman of the
United Master Butchers of America
announced here today after the com
pletion of a survey made for him
that meats are selling. considerably
below the level of other commodities
as compared with values prevailing
before the war.
The latest retail figures of the
United States bureau of labor sta
tistics," Mr.. Russell said, those for
December, show that nine meats
listed by the bureau-sirloin steak.
round steak, rib roast, chuck roast.
plate beef, pork chops, bacon, ham
and lard-averaged only SO per cent
higher than in 1913. whereas all
articles OF food combined, as listed
by the bureau, averaged AZ per cent
higher, or IL per cent above the
meats.
when it is considered that tH
meats listed by the bureau are chiSIfy
those which are now in relatively
higher demand than in 1913, these
figures are highly significant Many
less demanded cuts not listed by the
bureau are selling at very low prices"
