bonds. especially the rails. were fairs
~ active and higher. while invest
ment issues were heavy and inclined
To go lower in today's market. In this
respect the tendency was the same as
which prevailed all last week. In
Vestors are holding off in anticipa-
tloh OF higher money and talk about
another increase in the federal re-
serve banks rediscount rate con-
tlnues. The best opinion is that no
action of this kind will be taken for
some time, but the mere report is
enough to discourage investment pur-
chaseS. 1t is d question, however, how
much the market may have discount
ed the effect of "a higher money rate.
Tnday's Special Feature.
The feature of today's trading was
ways investment 5s and other obIiga
tions connected with public utility
groups of which the Market Street
railway and philadelphia Company
are tho principal members. The
United Railways issue is secured by
deposit Of Philadelphia Company
WITH market value in excess of the
outstanding amount of the bonds. 1t
has reported that some reorganiza-
ton Of the United Railways invest
ment was pending, which would
make 1t desirable to free this stock
from the lien of the bonds, the calla-
bic price Of which is 105
Meanwhile as a short term security
The bond offers an attractive return
at the market. In the same connec-
tion there was a considerable ad-
vance in Market Street Railway SIS,

very large yield at the current quota

version into per cent preferred

Railroad Bonds Active.
Among the railroad bonds activity
al advancing prices was displayed by

Justment reacted. Chesapeake and
Ohio 5s fell off with the stock. The
trend in the higher-grade investment
bonds was illustrated by the advance
in Union Pacific 6s and the decline in
the Southern Railway IS.
The former is Short-term obliea- =
