Bond market conditions were come.
wnat improved during tho last weak, and
prices at the close of business repre
rented advances In many Issues ranging
from two to three points. There were,
however, a number of losses recorded,
principally In raliroud Issues. Tho rail
road situation is so unsettled at present
that holders of securities of tho carriers
of the country nre somewhat skeptical
as to the real value of their Investments.
This has resulted In considerable selling
of certain bonds which, coupled with
tho, lack of demand, has brought about
the unfavorable results referred to.
New York traction Issues displayed
weakness as a result of the receivership
of tho B. It. T. Company, and final quo

for Able had a llttlo Jew tailor, who
Able said would buy Of course, I took

Able, so's not to hurt his feelings, that
that kind of person won't buy land.
