RAIL BONDS IN
 STRONG DEMAND
Flood Of Orders For St. Paul Issues Feature Of
 Market

NEW YORK, March 6.-Railroad is- sues virtually monopolized trading in terest in today's bond market, which was featured by the flood of buying orders for the St. Paul per cent ob- liz ations maturing next year, sending the price to a new high level for the year at S1lz. Influenced by reports that the road itself was steadily ac- curnulating these bonds and would be in a position to redeem the outstanding liens at par upon maturity, speculative interests were said to be buying on a large scale.
 Activity in the 1925 mortgages was connected to the other St. Paul issues, which gained substantially. on fairly large turnover. Figures made public today showing an increase in car load ings for the first two months of the year indicated improvement in the roads affairs and stimulated demand for it's bonds.
 In response to the modification of the reorganization plan for the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad Tighten ing the financial burden in the next vanced readily.
 Southern Pacific issues also were higher.
 The collapse of the franc to new low level to below 4c was accompanied by weakness of the French govern mental and municipal issues. Serbian ss, however, moved counter to the gen. eral foreign list and reached a new high for the year at 76. Total bond sales (par value), $11,- 4SS,000.
 Ten first-grade rails averaged 8o.56; net gain, .06. Ten secondary rails averaged S3.7s; net gain, .2S. Ten public utilities averaged s6.S6; net gain, .01.
 Ten industrials averaged e3.6o; net loss, .07.

Oil Shares Sought In Expecta-
 ton Of Increase In Mid .. Continent Prices

NEW YORK, March s.-stock prices developed firm tone in todsy's curb market. Speculative belief that an in crease in mid-continent oil prices was imminent brought about rather active buying of the oil shares in the early trading. but prices sagged towards the close on selling. inspired by the govern ment's suit to cancel the naval oil re- serve leases.
 A 15-point jump in Borne and scrym- ser to 2s was the feature of the oil group. Except for few issues. such as Cities Service, Continental Prairie Pipe, Ohio OH and Standard Oil of Ken lucky. which moved up11 to 1h points, the gains in oils were held to small fractions.
 In the industrial section Dubilier Ra- dio continued it's upward movement, touching . new top at 25A. Ward Bak- ing "B" stock also made good recovery from recent heaviness, and Kresge im- proved moderately. in sympathy with the strength of chain store stocks on the "big board"

 NEW YORK, March 6.-Notwith- standing a; new record low level for French francs under 4cents each, and further disturbing advices from Wash ineton, the stock market pursued an upward trend Thursday, leading issues scoring two and three points. Oil stocks under the leadership of the Pan-Amer- jeans were the strongest of several groups.
 There was a general movement among shorts to cover in the face of the steadier tone manifest for the past day or two. and indications were that the general list had been oversold. It was rumored that certain prominent opera tors were covering their short lines. Word was passed about that the most outspoken of the bear leaders had un- dergone change of heart ana tn,s ms caused much discoAragement among his Further strength was displayed by the reneraI list ine the late trading.

With one exception, the returns for all these periods have established new high records for the season.

NEW YORK, March 6.-while not very active, the market today has been generally strong. There appears to have been some rebuying by the re- cent Florida sellers. The effort to in- volve the President in the oil scandal fell flat, as 1t was proved that his telegram to MT. Mclean dealt only with local District of Columbia mat ter.
 Some day the furry or investigation in Washington. will die down and Con- gress get back to real business. The Senate committee has taken up the consideration of tax revision and is going to favorably report an immediate reduction of 25 per cent in the 1923 taxes. This is some progress. The House is working on the bonus bill, but no one can believe that this meas ure can be approved, as it would to- tally defeat tax reduction. French ex- change went below 4c, a new low level France is struggling with very diffi- cult financial situation.

FL. P. MOVEMENT
Mahoney of St. Paul to
Fight Reactionaries

Delegates from eastern political,
labor and progressive organizations
will meet in the Hamilton Hotel,
Washington, d. C. Thursday morn
ing to define their attitude towards
the May 30th farmer-labor conven-
ton at st. Paul.
The conference was called by Will
liam v. Mahoney of Washington, D.
c., and its sponsors are antagonistic
to the Farmer-Labor Party move
ment supported by the Minnesota
Farmer-Labor Party, the Federated
Farmer-Labor Party and its afIilia-
tions.
William Mahoney of st. Paul, who
must not be confused with Mr.. Ma
honey of Washington and Professor
Shopper of Minneapolis, will attend
the Washington conference in an eff
fort to swing it in line in support of
the May Both convention called by
the Minnesota Farmer-Labor Party
in cooperation with the Federated
Farmer Labor Party and other
groups.
Many of the elements which will
be represented in the Washington
conference are tied up with the Con-
ference for Progressive Political Ac-
ton which the May 30th conference
endorses.
Enemies Of the May Both confer
ence have been openly spreading the
falsehood that while the Federated
Farmer-Labor Party was invited TO
send delegates to the conference the
Socialist Party and|ehe old Farmer
Labor Party were not invited.
William Mahoney Of St Paul will
explode this falsehood at the Wash
ington conference and point out that
all labor. political and economic
groups will be invited to send dele
gates to the May 30th conference.
