Is also mentioned in the deal, and the
application for the consolidation is be-
fore the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion. The idea was first presented by
l.. F. Loree, president of the Della
ware and Hudson, and today is given
the support of r. j. Lisman, New
York banker, who has prepared
complete analysis of the proposals.
Mr.. Lisman, who was in Washington
Yesterday, believes that the railroads
in the consolidation would together
WELD gross earnings of $3.50 100000 a
year. He also finds that such COM
binaticn would be so miles shorter
than any present through line to Chi

If the new line becomes an actuality
it will compete with the New York

the new system.

SPECULATIVE RAILS
FEATURES IN BONDS
Foreign. List Reacts--FIood
of New Offerings Is Well
Received Today.
BY GEORGE t. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, February 2.-Three
features of interest in the bond mar
ket today were, first. the extraordi-
nary strength in second grade and
speculative railroad bonds; second,
offerings was absorbed. and third, the
moderate reaction in the foreign list
consequent upon heavy realizing
sales.
OF these three the most spectacular
was the rise in the railway group.
There was a long list of advances. but
the most importance attached to the
jump of Western Maryland first As,
which at SO were up a point and
three-quarters on the day and at the
highest in years. Although a first
mortgage lien with heavy equities
behind it, the street reasoned that only
the assumption of the obligation by
some other and larger road would
justify the present price. The sug.
gestion today was that Baltimore and
Ohio was the new interest back of
the property. Trading in the West.
ern Maryland issue was very heavy
throughout the session.
Other railroad bonds taken in large
volume at advancing prices included
Erie convertible I'D" 4s. up at one
time over point and at the highest
on the movement; Missouri Pacific
As, which sold i'm large blocks, re-
covering practically all the loss sus-
tanned when the new financing plan
was announced; st. Louis-San
Francisco income 6s, which were ia
vorably affected by the strength N
the stock after the Rock Island divi-
dend action was announced; Chicago
and Eastern Illinois 5s and Chicago
Great Western As. The two last
named have been tagging behind the
rest OF the market for a long time,
but they swung into line today
Other spots included Erie General
Peoria and Eastern incomes. fine
latter had gain of nearly points.
No interest has been paid on Peoria
and Eastern bonds since 1913
The ability of the market to care
for the $90,000.0 900 in new bonds nut
on sale today created a good deal of
confidence. coming as it did after the
large total putout earlier in the
week. January, 1927 established a
record high for new offerings, but Feb.
ruary Is likely to pass even that mark.
Selling in the foreign group was a
continuation of the realizing which
first showed yesterday afternoon.
Prices held fairly well, but most OF
the active issues were down substan.
TALLY from their recent highs. The
reaction was not more than might
have been expected after so sweeping
an advance.
In domestic industrials the oils
again were prominent under the
leadership of Barnsdall 6s with war
rants. Empire Gas and Fuel 634s, anG
the Sinclair issues.
