REACT|0NARY TONE.
IN BOND MARKET
Heavy Profit t-Takine in Some
Sugars-LibertieS Firm.
Rails Quiet.
BY GEORGE r. HUGHES.

Spec al D.spasch to Tie Star.
NEW YORK. February l5.-Reac-
tionary tendencies were displayed in
most bonds today. This was true of
some OF the sugar convertibles, which
had been rising very rapidly. but
have met heavy proht-taking. A case
In point is that Of the Eastern Cuban
Sugar 7ks. which have reacted nearly
S points. On the other hand, the cop.
per convertibles were stronger, with
Anaconda IS higher than they have
been since they have been brought
out. and the Chile Copper IS also
very active ard higher.
The first large foreign government
issue in many months was offered to-
day by the Dutch East Indies in the
form Of a thirty-year 5is per cent
bond in the amount of s25,000,o00. The
yield on these bonds to the earliest
redemption date Is 7.20 per cent and
$40 per cent to maturity. and there
fore little more attractive from the
redemption standpoint than the out
standing IS, which reacted a point
or more on account of the compari-
son. Other foreign government bonds
were heavy and less active. with the
ouS Lns power IN suCn DOnoS quite 4
good deal reduced since they had their
recoverieS.
The demand for municipal bonds
continued strong and prices remained
high as evidenced by the new issue
Of city Of Philadelphia IS today on
G.SS basis. Liberty bonds were
firm. In the railroad department
there was little feature.
The trend OF the money market so
far this month has been contrary to
general expectations. and II il con-
tinues on its present basis may halt
any further advance in highest grade
bonds.
