RY CHARLES F. 1 Dispateh to The Star, NEW YORK, July 26.—With a local traction strike imminent, the market for Interhorough Rapid Transit and Third Avenue was decidedly weak foday. The rest of the list was dull and irregular. Interborongh refunding 4 ahont a point, while the h bonds held steady. The impact of the selling was most felt by the Third Avenue adjustments, in which there has been a speculative pool. lLast week, on the possibility of a larger paymient on the bonds, they advanced 10 6 a new h for the yea day they were 3 points under figure, with some weak holdings beini linuidated. k declined her coupon Convertibles At rtive.

The test will come in the prices bid for the new issues. which are to be sold shortly. Foreign Moves Smaller, In the foreign groups the fluctua tlons today were smaller than in sev eral wee The feeling that France is very near the point where legal stabilization of the franc will be an- nounced keeps all of her dollar bonds strong.
