 PRICE MOVEMENTS
Trans.AmeriCa Gets Advance Through Listing Application

New York. July IS dP,-With the exception of few issues, price were more or less of T routine nature on the curb market today. Reactions on week end profit taking in the general list proved small and prices on the whole ex- hibited further firmness. Trading was moderately active.
 Transamericas application for list ing on the New York stock exchange brought an initial advance of more than two points in the stock, but part of the gain was lost. Invest ment trusts as. a group were firm. attracted some attention crease in it's assets. Goldman Sachs trading was firm. United Founders, a holding company with a large in vestment in trust stocks, was under pressure, reacting nearly a point be- fore support was forthcoming.
 The utilities were dull. Niagara Hudson was strong on talk of mer- ger possibilities with Consolidated Gas. Reports that the company had concluded an agreement for an in terchange of power with New York Edison, a prominent Consolidated Gas subsidiary, were denied, all though it was admitted that nego- tiations for the project had been In- der way for some, time. Tampa Electric was run up several points, and Consolidated Gas of Baltimore rallied, but the more active utility shares moved listlessly.
 There was some irregularity in the industrials. Driver Harris. a recent feature, reappeared on the tape sev- eral points below the previous sale. The company announced that it had acquired rights to manufacture un- der the Krupp- stainless steel patents.
 Deere has moved up and down sum broke more than ? points and Newmont was of a point or two Aluminium of America made a broad upward move on limited buying. Dresser Manufacturing B" sold higher.
 A rise of about a point in Cities Service was the outstanding develop ment in the oil group, which other wise was quiet.
 Call money renewed at 2iA per cent.

 RAILROAD BONDS
Small Furry Of Activity Seen in
 Treasury Issues

New York, July IS P-Railroad bonds had the call with buyers in the listed bond market today and both high grade liens and converti- bles were under accumulation. The rest Of the market was quiet. with the exception of a furry Of activity in treasurySssue which eased under selling pressure.
 A substantial demand developed for both mortgage issues and bonds with stock privileges on the carriers group and some sharp gains tooE place. Atchison 412s rose a point. and Alleghany 5s, Baltimore and Ohio 4 1-2s, and Rock Island 1-2s were well traded,
 Rock Island As. Great Northern 4 1-2s, Pennsylvania 1-2s, Southern Pacific 4las, Erie 5s. st. Louis, San Francisco 4hs and Southern Rail- way As found favor with investors. Offerings of other standard rails were rather slim but some good fractional advances resulted during carly dealings.
 Telephone Feature
 The marked strength of 1nterra- tional Telephone was a feature of the trading in utility bonds, the con- vertible 1-2 rising more than a point and a half, and the debenture selling at 1-2 point above yester- days closing figure. The rest of the group was dull and firm.
 The good resistance the stock mar ket has shown to selling pressure the past few days has influenced greater activity in bonds with stock privilege features. Philadelphia Reading Coal and Iron 6's were strong, rising more than a point in active trading. Texas Corporation SIS, and American I. c. Chemical 5 1-2's were firm and active.
 With few exceptions the rest of the domestic list was dormant. Chile Copper 5s, National Dairy 1-4s, North American Cement 6ks, Sin- clair Crude Oil 61as, showed rising tendencies. Lautaro nitrate 6s and Anglo-Chilean Is continued to gain.
 Activity in foreign issues was con- ctntrated principally in a. few bonds. Japan F were extensively accumulated at higher levels. E Italy 7s and French Is were in demand. Hungary 7ks were steady. Jugosldv mortgage bank Is sold at close to the years peak price.
 Several treasury issues continued steadily downward during the early dealings, although price concessions were confined to small fractions. Liberty's also eased.

JUDGE SOON ENDS
 DISPUTE 0N BILL
Makes Finding for Plaintiff in
 Small Claims Court

Heat may not affect the temper of Judge Stanley Traceski, but when heat like that of this afternoon is com bined with stubborn defendant in small claims court case. then any judge is liable to get heated up 10 the point of ending n otherwise peaceful court session. This was the case this afternoon when Anthony Kowalczyk of 1O4 Miller street. who was defending claim of probably s25" brought by Bruno Nowak, gro- cer at 122 Miller street.
 Nowak said that the defendant owed about 25," but as he had no book he was not sure. kowalczyk, with a book, showed that he owed $13.90 and declared that he wanted to pay once. but that the grocery man chased his wife (Mrs. kowal- czyk) out of the store with knife
 Judge Traceski then decided that if the defendant paid s1 weekly on the bill, everything would be all right, and Kowalczyk absolutely re- fused to pay the bill that way. Fifty cents a week or nothing, and besides, he was afraid of his life to enter the Nowak store.
 Judgment for the plaintiff p thundered the judge as he strode out of the court room.
 The New Britain Glass Co, plain tiff, lost a case this afternoon when judgment was given for Mrs. Made line Kzemincki of Main street, de- fendant.

 Judgments were entered by Judge Stanley Traceski, as follows:
 City Coal & Wood Go. vs. F. J. Ellison, Berlin, judgment for plain tiff for s19.S5 and costs.
