NEW YORK, October 27.—Although there was some uncertainty in stocks, the general bond list was steady with considerable activity and higher prices in various issues. Andes Copper 75 were at one time a point lower, but later recovered the loss. Anaconda Copper 7s did better. It is understood that there is some new financing pending by which arrange- ments will be made to take care of the Anaconda 6 per cent notes due next year. This may be in the form of a bond carrving stock warrants. ‘The local tractions acted better. New York Railway incomes were up a point. ‘There was further liquidations in the New York State Rallway 415s and 615s. Junior rails had a heavy tone, espe- cially Seaboard Air Line and St. Paul issues. Among the specialities a de- cline of a point in Pathe 7s was con- spicuous. The United States Government group was firm. The Liberty 315s showed a further advance, which brought them up to a price half a point above the low of the month. Among foreign issues the specula‘ive members of the group were reactionary, especially Fiat 7s, in which the decline amounted to 1!, points. In contrast was the gain in the various German municipal and public utility issues, and in Belgium, Italian and Japanese de- scriptions. | Beigium 78 19 Beiglum 7s | Chile 65 '60 | Chile 6s 61.

Market Takes Upward Turn on Farm Relief Reports, CHICAGO, October 27 (#).—Immense buying of wheat sprang up toward the last today, largely as a result of advices showing serious lack of moisture in Argentina. At the top prices reached, the Chicago wheat market today was more than 7c a bushel above quotations which were current at the beginning of this week. Talk of a probable special session- of Congress to consider farm relief was also of considerable effect as a late bullish influence.

BY WILLIAM F. HEFFERNAN. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, October 27.—Rallying tendencies following the rather sudden | wave of selling late yesterday set in on the curb exchange at the close of the week. The manner in which issues which had suffered most rallied was im- pressive from the standpoint of those Wwho could not assign any reason for the abrupt turnabout of the price movement. In some quarters the ap- proach of the election was said to have caused uneasiness in speculative quar- ters. The oils were again in favor at inter- vals, with Standard of Kentucky almost 3 points above Friday's final, still in- fluenced by rumors of a 50 per cent stock distribution. Standard of Indi- ana_changed hands around 81, whiie Gulf Oil rose more than 2 points. Following approval by stockholders of the recapitalization plan of Royal Bak- ing Powder, both the present shares and the rights to subscribe to new stock continued in demand. Blumenthal com- mon_jumped almost 5 points, while X W. Bliss gained almost 2. ‘The spectacular Checker Cab Mann- facturing and Columbia Graphophone, which have been moving 'sharply in both directions recently, seemed to have steadied around the current nrice levels. In the motor group Marmon and Stutz were favored, while Fiat debenture rights were again active around 10.
