Special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK. November 20-Invest-
n1ent buying by individuals. insurance
companies, savings banks and other cor
porations came into the bond market
today and prices advanced.
United States Government obligations,
at their high prices for the year, were
quieter, as buyers turned to the rail-
roads-which have announced a heavy
construction program for the new year
and to the public utilities and indus
trials to invest their money.
It was clear that much money just
released from the stock market through
the liquidation of equity accounts or
from the call money market was avail
able In the trading
Right from the opening 1t was appar-
ent that the entire list was participant
ing In the rise and in the foreign de-
psrtment, which has been notable for
its weakness of late, some advances
we're wide.
High-grade issues such as Atchison
general 4s, New York Central SIS, South
ern Pacific AIS, st. Louis-San Fran
cisco A As, Youngstown Sheet & Tube
IS, Columbia Gas SIS of May 1852 and
Consolidated Gas rs were in demand
at rising prices.
With the scarcity of high-grade bonds
what 1t is, it was natural that much

speculative types. ODllSdJlOnS Oh IHG
traction companies wehe higher. Brook
lyn-Manhattan Transit 6s were up
nearly a point and Hudson Manhattan
refunding SIS and income SIS gained over
a point.
National Dairy Products 5i4s were a
point higher. Issues of oil companies
shared in the improvement, notably the
per cents of the Texas corporation,
which sold again at a premium and / Il
points better than their low price of two
days ago.
There were no exceptions to the gen.
eral trend among the junior bonds Of
the carriers. Chicago & Northwestern
AIS were up 2la points and the 434s
OF the same company on the curb bond
division were up fractionally in active
trading.
South American issues featured the
foreign list. Brazilian IS were up 8
points and nearly IS points above the
low for the year. which was touched
only a few days ago. Colombian IS of
October, 1861, were points higher
Argentine IS of September. 1860, i'm

tinued their advance.

 Although the ayiators had good weather from Lisbon to the Azores, fogs and westerly winds faced them from here to the American coast. Halifax reported unfavorable flying conditions along that coast, with a dense fog and a moderately heavy rain.
 The westward crossing being at tempted by the two aviators has been successfully but once, by the German Irish trio, Baron Von Huenefeid, Captain Herman Koehl and Major James Fitzmaurice, in the airplane Bremen, from Baldonnel Field, Ireland, to Greenley island, off the Labrador coast.

COUNTERFEIT BILLS.
 FLOOD THIS CITY
Continued From First Page) careful check up may be made by federal men assigned to the inves- tigation.
Special to the Herald)

Bristol, Aug. 20-A number of counterfeit s5 bills have been put in circulation in this city, it was learned this noon, when 8 spurious bill was brought to Headquarters by a local resident whose name was not ascertained by the police. He was appraised of the fact that it was worthless when he rendered it in payment of his account at a North Main street market.
 The bill which was of the old issue, bore serial number B-572S6767-D, series of 1914 and was issued on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The fact that it was counterfeit was plainly indi- cated by the cheap quality of the paper. the fact that the printing was lighter than that on a genuine bill and slightly blurred and the seal was reversed.
 The man presenting the bill to headquarters stated that 1t had been given to him last week by an um- brella vendor In change for a s10 bill. According to the police a number of commercials have been passed in this city by a person travelling in an automobile bearing Q Connecticut registration.

and pass through your body until you are dead"
 Dr. Shook remained standing and he was quickly surrounded by depu- ties who led him back 10 his cell in the county jail. Arrangements for his transfer to death row in the state penitentiary were then begun.
 The former university professor s wife and mother, who stood Loyalty by him during his trial, were not in court. Melvin T. Hix, silver-haired father of the dead Theora, was there.
 Enters on New Life
 Shook enters upon a new life to- day-that of a convict condemned to death.
 In death row at Ohio State peni- tentiary. where he will spend the next 100 days, the last of his life, are four other men. They too, are doom- ed. One. Joseph B. Locke, will be executed September 30. for killing his mother-in-law. Another, Arthur Maui. dies October IS for murdering policeman. The others are negroes one a preacher who killed parish toner.
 Shook will have other company, not in the row but outside. Twenty four hours a day he can look through a fine wire mesh and zee sitting there a guard. sometimes two, who will watch him and his cell mates for signs of violence, insanity or trouble of any kind
 Some Try Suicide
 Ofttimes the inmates of death row are driven insane by breeding. Impending death is hard for them to contemplate. Some try suicide by putting their heads against the walls There is no other way out. Other times death row is stage for comedy. ironically ludicrous. There have been condemned men there who laughed at death and so heart ened their comrades. Others have tolled off the hours, craven with fear Still others have gone away cursing.
 Dr. Snooks fate. such as it is, has penetrated to the recesses of death row. Locke and Maui. for instance, fear they won't see the professor be- fore they Ego walking'-their last walk. Both kept apace with Shocks trial and. like the curious on the "outside," are anxious to sec the doctor. Maui is a kid. Locke is old enough to be his father.
 "Golly," Maui said recently I'm anxious to see that bird"
 For Maui, death "all comes in a life time" Thoughts of the chair aren't going to spoil his perspective, he says. Locke is equally curious. He isn't worrying so much about the chair. He expects a reprieve. Pastor Would Pray for Him And the negro preacher. Rev. M. Rhodes, is ready to offer the doctor spiritual consolation. He and young Lee Akers are separated from the white prisoners by bars and mesh but they can talk. Rhodes has seen two of the boys "ge over" since he entered the row and he induced them to pray.
 "We'll teach the doctor to pray, he said.
