London Daily Express reported that,
needing the message of terror beaten
out by the tomtoms and shouted out
by the messengers, the whole coun-
tryside was being evacuated.
Karaclli dispatches to the Ex-
change Telegraph said that new

CONVERTIBLE BOND
ISSUES SHOW GAIN
|. T. and Other Favorites in
Upward Trend-0ther
Groups Irregular.
BY CHARLES r. SPEARE.

| Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. March 25-The Inter-
| national Telephone convertible 415s.
which represented over 10 per cent of
last weeks trading in corporation bonds,
were in even greater proportion to
transactions in today's session. They
| advanced over points and sold within
point of their previous best figure.
These bonds simply followed the stock
OF the company, which was notably
strong.
There were convertibles that made
about as much gain as the Telephone
| 4l2s, but in which there was almost
| no trading, such as Anaconda rs and
Walworth Gas. American Interna-
tional 5i2s improved fractionally, Atchi-
son 4l2S sold under 113 and Public
Service of New Jersey 4las went below
1870, which compared with their high
for the year of 2O6
This afternoon Anaconda rs declined
points and Telephone Alps reacted
with the rest of the market
Industrial Mortgage bonds were ir-
| regular. Goodyear IS lost half, while U.
S. Rubber IS and National Dairy Prod
| ucts 5l4s improved fractionally. There
was increase in the supply of Dodge
is below par, with the bonds about
duplicating their low OF some weeks
| ago. Brooklyn Manhattan Transit Is
dropped full point. Hudson & Man.
| haitian issues showed some rallving
power after the severe readjustment Of
last week.
The changes in high grade issues
were Insignificant. Government issues
were somewhat better, though all of the
Liberties were not far from their lows
Of the year. -"'
The market for inactive rails is one
that requires much patience on the part
OF buyer and seller in order to effect a.
trade. Losses of to 3 points from
previous transactions are not uncom-
mon. A significant incident in new rail-
road financing was the offering of
Boston & Maine per cent mortgage
bonds today with a three-year maturity
on 5s4 per cent basis. This is the
hrst short term borrowing in this
character of bond in some time.
Foreign issues were irregular. In
general where there have been sharp
declines recently there is some buying
which sends up prices l to 2 points on
small lots. However the market has
as yet no definite trend.
