OF these cereals soon went below yes

SPECULATIVE BOND
ISSUES LEADERS
Junior Rails, Convertible Oils
and German InduStriaIS
Active.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
cial Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 25.-Speculative
bonds monopolized attention in today's
trading, chiefly in three groups, the
junior rails, convertible oils, and Ger
man industrials.
The leaders among the rails were
the Seaboard Air Line issues, which
have been neglected for long time.
TOdays activity was reported to have
followed transfer of a large block of
the refunding as from one holding
group to another. Buying at higher
prices was in evidence directly at the
start of the market, substantial gains
being recorded for all the active issues.
Refunding As Higher.
The refunding As at one time got
higher than for the past two years.
The consolidated 6s were dealt in
large volume, crossing So to within a
fraction of the previous 1926 high.
Seaboard's earnings have been consist
emily good all the year, but interest in
its bonds fell off after the real estate
activity in Florida abated.
OIL bonds were uniformly strong.
Sicily 61as had a spectacular advance
Of over points to a new high rec
ord. the rise being accompanied by
large transactions. Investment buy
ing kept up in Sinclair 61as and Sin
clair Is.
The two favorites in the German
list were Rhinelbe rs and the German
General Electric 6ks, both making
new tops. Strength in this group
was taken to forecast a favorable re-
ception for the Offering on Monday
of $30,000,000 in United Steel Works
Corporation 67as, maturing 1851 and
priced at 90. This is the new Ger
man steel combine, and the bonds are
to carry non-detachable warrants to
buy one share of common stock at 125
per cent of its par value.
Investment Issues Heavy.
The general bond market--that Is,
the investment section-was heavy
and inclined to react. Apparently
dealers had stocked up. anticipating
the July reinvestment demand. which
has not yet materialized to the ex
tent expected.
An interesting new offering was
SO 500, 900 Tennessee Electric Power
refundine 5s priced at SO. to yield 5.13
per cent. The per cent bonds. with
the same security, listed on the Stock
Exchange at 1854. yield SIS per cent,

new SIS are callable points away
from the Offering price at 105.

NEW YORK, June 25.-In today's

when General Motors and Hudson

There was question whether this

vance. but did nothing more. Inc
same was true of southern Railway
Atlantic Coast Line and Reading.
%aw Haven crossed IS again on large
transactions. .
During the greater part or the Ses-
sion United States Steel moved with
in a narrow range and did little worth
commenting upon. The lndependenl
steels were lower, especially Republic
Iron and Steel. Youngstown Sheet
and Tube and Crucible Steel were polh
off a point or more.
Oils Gain Little.
Those who are optimistic on the OH
shares considered for the most palt
that their action was favorable. sui
even at the best they went up very
little. General Petroleum held the rise
of 90 points made Thursday. Mar
land made a fractional gain ana Pure
Oil. Skelly and Pan-Amerlcan at one
neriod were slightly higher. Active
trading interest was maintained IN the
shares of the Amerada Corporation,
which rose more than points yester-
day.
Hudson Motor broke nearly points.
General Motors encountered some sup
port as it neared 1+0. Studebaker
was off nearly a point. On the other
hand the buying movement in WHY'S
overland was sufficient to hold the
stock up against the feactlollary
tendency in others of the group.
