New York fractions Buoyant.
Some of the lnduStrials
Are Reactionary.
BY CHARLES r. SPEARE.

| Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 5.-The unusual
number of new bond and stock issues
today and the large total involved,
$I45, 200, 900, had a tendency to limit
operations In old issues. There were,
however. a number of striking features.
Most notable was the buoyancy of the
local traction group. This was pred
icated on the possibility Of q favor
able court decision in the matter Of
fares. The Interborough refunding SIS
advanced IA points and the IS and rs
4 to a. The largest turnover and the
greatest amount of gain was in the
New York Railway incomes IS. Closing
Wednesday at 1915, they shot up to ~.
On the way up heavy sales occurred
on the part of those who have been
accumulating these bonds for some
weeks and they lost ground quickly.
The first mortgage IS advanced a
point to 90. Third Avenue adjustment
SIS and the IS each gained a point.
Some Industrials Reactionary.
While these bonds were rising there
were reactionary tendencies in the In
duStrials. Anaconda Copper Is lost
over a point; United States Rubber IS

tional losses In Andes Copper rs and

The market for railroad bonds was
much quieter and easy. Transactions

high rates for money.
In the foreign list the strongest bonds
were the italian municipals, which
touched new high prices: the Polish SIS.
Budapest IS. Chile IS, French muni-
cipals and rails, and the various Danish
bonds, which were helped by the new
government Az per cent loan.
Today's Offerings Diverse.
The diversity Of today's new offerings
was greater than for many weeks. A
significant feature was that OF the total
amount involved. very little was for re-
funding purposes, which Is in contrast
to previous conditions. Another no.
table feat was the absence of any rail-
road borrowing. Over 20 per cent of
1t was involved in the Danish govern
ment loan and nearly one-third by vari-
GUS industrial issues.
The business week ends with the
average Of both domestic and foreign
bonds at. the highest since the advance
In these issues began months ago. with
this average being reached when both
time and call money rates are at the
highest In months. In other words the
