afternoon from a trip to Portland
Mrs Carter and son having been in
the city several weeks, while Mr.
Carter and their daughter drove

was greatly enjoyed, but Mr.. Carter
states that of the small cities, he saw
none that had the appearance of
prosperity that Moscow has. He said
that in many of the towns there were
numerous "to rent" and "for sale"
signs in evidence, which did not in
dicate particularly favorable condi-
tions.

small in oats with no pressure.
One local house said today: THE
idea of higher prices for farm
products is founded on a belief that
rehabilitation of Europe will COM
mence with the help of English
speaking countries. Any recon-
struction must necessarily be slow
1t, therefore, follows that wheat,
corn and oats will not score their
proper advance without many set
backs, one of which seems now in
the making. The market has re-
sisted a long period of depressing
news, therefore, it should find favor
with buyers on all depressions."

NEW YORK, Feb. 14.-The stock
~ market in the first two hours of
trading today was called upon to
absorb a good deal of profit taking
in those stocks, which by reason OF
most optimistic trade advances, had
attracted a large following. Con-
sentative interests did not look
with favor upon the wild gyrations
in certain groups which yesterday
bore all the earmarkS of developing
into a run away affair. The stiffen-
ing of the call money rate was also
q factor not to be overlooked and
siasm. Still, quotations in most
sections receded reluctantly, making
short sellers most cautious and
ready to repurchase on any sign Of
returning strength.

ing sales, in the steel group, losing
two points to 79A. Republic Steel

DIVER IBLE
BONDS NOW
ACTIVE
Investors Attracted to Better
Grade of Bonds That Are
Convertible.
BY MUNROE ROBERTS.
Copyright, 1898. by Cosmopolitan
News SarvicAl

NEW YORK, Feb. 14.-Whatever
may be the theories and views of
the financial community with re-
spect to the participation of the
American public in the stock mar
ket at the present time, there is no
doubt that investors are attracted
to the bond market on an ever-in-
creasing scale. It Is a well-accepted
theory Of Wall Street that stock
traders, who have acquired a COM
Portable margin Of profit as the re-
suit of extended operations in the
stock market, tie up considerable
portion of their funds in higher
grade investment bonds. Some of
them make a speciality of the better
grade Of convertible bonds, with an
eye to future profits should it be-
come desirable to convert them into
stocks. At the present time there
il pronounced activity in a number
Of these convertible bonds.
With practically every one of the
prominent railroad companies re-
porting a steadily increasing num-
Der of cars loaded with revenue
freight and a gratifying decline in
operating expenses, the financial
outlook for the railroad lines is par
ticularly bright.
While this condition is naturally
reflected in the stock market, it
should be q more important factor
in the market for railroad bonds.
Investors should not always con-
clude that because bond Is selling
4A1I kn
cent, it is necessarily unsafe. The
market for second-grade rails offers
some excellent opportunities for
profit at the present time, provided
they are ocnservatively selected.
Investment experts in the impor-
tant financial centers Of the coun-
try are always glad to place their
services at the disposal of investors
and win aid them in making their
selections.
The French minister of finance
has announced that within the near
future the Republic of France will
issue thirteen million francs in new
treasury bonds, the proceeds of
which will be used for the amort-
ization Of treasury bonds due in
June for the balancing of the
budget for the defraying Of the ex-
penses Of the Ruhr occupation.
Complete details with reference to
the new bonds have not yet been
made public, but it is believed that
they will carry GA Or per cent
and run from three to ten years.
Naturally the floatation of such a
large output of new government
bonds will cause some unsettlement
in the French investment market.
Arrangements have been made to
sell $6,300,000 of equipment trust
certificates of the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad Company to J.
p. Morgan & Co. at not less than
SO and accrued interest. The notes
will be offered in the investment
market before the end of the week.
New bonds issued today include
$500, 900 Crescent Insulated Wire
and Cable Company, Inc, first
mortgage fifteen-year 6 per cent
gold bonds to yield $3.50 per cent:
5000, 900 Multnomah county, Oregon,
