Special Dispatch TO The Star
NEW YORK, July 27.-After havinS
absorbed a heavy volume Of selling al
irregular prices, today's bond market
moved sharply higher In the last hall
hour and closed ut the best levels OF
the recovery.
Today's gains have brought the bond
list back to its levels Of last April
Trading was In large volume.
The market opened with q firm tone
which, SO far as Investment quality
bonds were concerned, was maintained
throughout the session. There was re-
newed heavy buying Of Treasury and
Liberty bonds gains ranging from
6-32 to 13-S2. Since this was not con-
fined to the low coupon issues, il was
not directly traceeble to banks pur-
chasing for currency expansion pur-
poses. Some of IL was of a speculative
nature and some was institutional pur-
chasing to expand Government bond
portfolios in the expectation that cur
rent Government financing viii give q
further impetus to outstanding Gov
ernment bonds.
The general investment demand
again made its presence felt in nearly
all prime issues. There was good in
quiry for American Telephone SIS and
SIS, Consolidated Gas 51aS, Duquesne
Light AIS, New York Telephone AIS
and other high-grade utilities. Prime
rails, such as Burlington Is, Atchison
General As. Norfolk g. western As and
Union Pacific first As were Arm. So
were the best industrials, notably
Standard Oil of New Jersey SIS, Stand
ard of New York AIS, General Motors
Acceptance 6s, Texas Co. IS and Md
vale Steel 5s.
On the other hand. profit taking de-
pressed industrials that have recently
shown good gains. such as McKeSSon
& Robbins 5 1as. International Cement
SIS, Goodrich IS, Pan-American Petro-
leum IS, Dodge Brothers Is and specu-
lative utility bonds, including Western
Union IS, International Telephone IS.
American & Foreign Power IS and IN
ternational Hydro-Electric SIS.
In the foreign list the feature was
the extreme weakness OF Argentine
bonds. Losses ranged from 4 10 6ls
points. This depressed virtually all OF
the South American list. The decline
was ascribed to nervousness In Lon
don-where there is heavy trading In
South American credits-over the grow
ing possibility Of defaults in debt serv-
ice by the few South American coun.
tries still making payments. Any intra.
empire agreement reached on wheat
and meats by the Ottawa conference
will be q heavy blow to the Argen-
tine.
The German group sold on about a
point. Great Britain 5l2s remained
firm because Of the continued success
of the British war loan conversion.
Other Europeans eased. Canadian Sc
curities remained firm with Canadian

NORMAN THOMAS paused in the arduous abors of his
campaign to add another to his diadem of decep
ton of the working class in connection with the resignation
of Walker from the post of mayor of New York City, At
ST. Louis where Thomas campaigning last week, he gave
utterance to the following profound observation:
Governor Roosevelt after very weak handling of
the Walker case up to the time the mayor placed

with dignity and has made good impression the
country at large Now, by Walkers action he will be able
to retain the benefits of this good impression"
Msed rank and file members of the Socialist Party
can wonder whether Thomas is campaigning Roose

The Superintendent declared that
part of our demands he was pre-
pared to satisfy at once; the dele
CATION informed him that the
workers insisted on his satisfying
not only the secondary demands
but also the main ones. The Su-
perintendent was making an effort
to be very courteous, and tried to
draw us into a discussion. But we
refused to discuss matters, and re-
peating our demands again, we
left him AS we left we heard the
engineer say with dissatisfaction:
"How can you want to talk with
that swine?"
"You spoil everything with your
fiery temper. ="
They need dose of the Cos
sacks. :"
We left the office.
Did you hear about the Cos
sacks?"
They're not here yet," quietly
answered the president of the
delegation.
But we'd better remember that
threat. There are no Cossacks in
the town, but there are soldiers.
They might try some provo
cation; you can see that Buiko is
a low swine, and hates us"
OUR scouts informed us that the
USuperintendent had made re-
quest to the Chief of Police to in
terfere and stop the strike; but
the latter had replied that so far
there was no disorder, and that
he didn't want to cause any by
interfering. We then realized why
the police were not disturbing us.
The Chief of Police, apparently,
knew of our demands, although we
could not say what his attitude to
them was.
1t turned out further that the
Port Superintendent had applied
to the Chief of the Garrison, who
had also refused, saying that he
had enough trouble of his own.

this and warned them at the same
time against possible attempts at
provocation on the part of the
police.
All the dredgers and wherries
were lined up along the shore;
there was no life on them. One
worker was on duty on each ship.
His duty was to inform us of what
the administration was doing on
board. We were very much wor-
ried about one dredger which was
lying at its place of work in the
Straits. The crew, although they
had informed us that the "Lisov-
sky" (their ship was sticking with
us, nevertheless had not come
ashore. We were afraid that they
might begin to work nights.
WE DECIDE TO TAKE ACTION
The delegation decided to go out
to the "Lisovsky" and bring it
along shore. The Port Superin.
tendent had a steam-cutter which
always stood at the quay with
steam up. We decided to make use
