GOLD MOVEMENTS

Bonds Marking Time.
GEORGE r. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 24.-In its
hearing on the investment outlook
this weeks statement of the Federal
Reserve Banks Is significant in the
extreme.
For month or more attention has
been concentrated on the outgo of
gold from the Bank of England and
the consequence to sterling exchange.
but 1t now becomes plain that the gold
which Great Britain Is losing is be
ginning to show in the reserves of our
own central banking system.
Ratio Higher Than Year Ago.
Bankers and economists have been
saying that with half the gold supply
of the entire world in the United
States, the best thing that could hap
pen for all concerned would be re
distribution of this excess among the
nations of Europe, which so greatly
need it. Instead of anything of this
sort happening. exactly the opposite
is going on. The item of gold reserves
In the weekly Federal Reserve state
ment is again going up
There has also been much discus
sion III recent months about increased
demands upon the money supply
from business. and predictions that
such demands would be reflected in
higher interest rates. But this week s
statement shows a falling off in hold
lngs OF discounted bills for the Re
serve system as a whole. and for that
OF the New York bank in particular
Even the enormous and unrestricted
speculation in stocks so far has been
without important effect upon money.
Bonds Marking Time.
The reserve ratio of the New York
Federal Re"erve Bank the institution
that Is expected TO take the lea d
when the time comes for raising the
discount rate from the present 81
per cent level, Is now up from a week
ago and actually higher than il was
q year ago at this season.
This being the case. there is nothing.
in the money situation TO indicate
lower prices for bonds Nor is there
any sign of initiation in commodity
prices. Speculation for the rise is
conhned to stocks. This is also ia
Vorable 10 stability IN bonds For the
moment the market for high-grade in
vestment securities IS marking time.
The only buyers are the financial in
stitutions, the attention of individua,
investors being concentrated on
stocks. The buying is just about suf-
hcient to offset the selling.
There is little better inquiry for
securities returning from TO 81
per cent, but even that is selectiye.
me result, taking the list as q whole.
Is that the average price for domes-
TIC "bilgatons Is just about where il
was month ago and only about a
point below the high OF the wear
reached last May.
In foreign bonds, the situation is
very different. Here there has been
active speculation all the week, but
no uniformity of movement. the obi
cations of the German government
and OF German municipalities and
utilities being bought in large volume,
while at the same time selling was
going on in French securities.
