INDUSTRIAL BONDS
ARE MOST ACTIVE
Polish Liens Come Down as
Syndicate DissoIves-OiIs
Do Better.
BY GEORGE Il. HUGHES

Speclal Dlspatcn TO the star.
NEW YORK, May 19.-The feature
of the bond market today was the
further drop in the Poland per cents.
These bonds sold close to 81, against
a Saturday final of 95ls. The sub
scription price was 50, and the decline
was entirely due to the expiration of
the syndicate and the consequent
withdrawal of protecting orders. The
attractive feature about the Polish SIS
Is that they are callable by lot at 105
that is nearly Is points above where
they We're selling in the market today
There are 100000 of these bonds to
be drawn at 1O5 on July /, and this
was a highly important consideration
as supporting factor.
French City Bonds Up.
French city bonds sold up a half
point, the rise including the Bordeaux
6s, the Lyons IS and the MarSeilles 6s.
Paris, Lyons and Mediterranean 6s
were also in demand above 70, as
against 7SA at Mondays close The
French government Is held firm
around 80, the 7l2s just under par and
the 8 per cent fractionally above 1903.
The rise in the Austrian rs was not
maintained. They fell off nearly a
point from Mondays final of 90

Industrial Bonds Gain.
Liberty bonds were slightly higher,
but without any particular develop
ments. Among corporate issues one
OF the features was the strength in
traction bonds.
American Agricultural 71as at 102
