MOVES IRREGULAR
IN BOND MARKET
Oil Bonds Sink, But Humble
Issue Is ExcelIently
Received Today.
BY CHARLES F. SPEARE.


NEW YORK. April 1.-Opposite
trends were showing today as be-
tween the primest grades Of bonds.
both domestic and foreign, and the
issues of industrial and railroad cor
porations whose income outlook for
at least a portion Of this year is I'M
certain. There were a number OF in
stances where legal rails were marked
up one.half to full point. as in the
Pennsylvania consolidated AVS and
Union Pacific first Is. with United
States fourth 4As again above lO4.
and a few Of the highest-rated for
eign dollar loans in good demand
above their call prices.
The reverse of the situation was to
be found in the further sinking tend
ency Of oil company bonds such as
those of California Petroleum and
Pan.American Petroleum. which. how
ever, did not prevent an excellent re-
ception for the new $25,000,00 offer
ing of Humble Oil 10-year SO de-
bentures, and for packing house bonds.
The Wilson first IS broke a point
below par, the lowest price In months.

The second quarter OF the year

| precedented rate, amounting to ap-
| proximately S2,250 600, 900. For time
this great stream Of new issues flow

/ blocking it. but large proportion
| OF this has been absorbed and as
| there are comparatively few new is

| ton of the bond market throughout
the Spring quarter promises TO be
stronger than in the quarter just ccm-
| pleted.
