FINANCIAL BOND LIST HIGHER ONBETTER DEMAND ‘Easier Credit Conditions Prove Aid to Market—In- vestment Buying Appears. BY F. H. RICHARDSON, Epecial Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, January 3.—With easier money as an_immediate prospect and a considerable reinvestment demand, bond prices made definite progress to- day. Volume was heavier than on ‘Thursday, though not up to the activity expected at the start of next week when the financial wheels really get turning again. The improvement affected the entire list, although there were some spots. ‘The market had some $65,000,000 in hew issues to absorb, of which $60,000,~ 000 consisted of 6 per cent debentures of Insull Utility Investments, Inc. The issue was offered at 99';. In addition to the high coupon the issue was made attractive by the inclusion of both con- version and stock warrant features. The other issue of size was one for $3,000,000 of two-year 6 per cent notes of the Newton Steel Co., Youngstown. ‘The notes also have a convertible fea- ture. The trend upward was shown, in the high-grade list, by fractional improve- ment in Canadian National 5s, Union Pacific first 4s, Great Northern 71s, Standard Oil of New York 4las, Duquesne Light 41%s, Philadelphia Co. 5s and in higher prices for United States Government obligations. Gains- were wider and volume heav- fer in the junior issues of the rail- roads. Chicago & Eastern Illinois 5s and Seaboard Airline adjustments both gained a point. Other advances were made by St. Paul adjustments, Erie general lien 4s, Missouri-Pacific 5128, St. Louis-San ncisco 412s and West- ern Maryland 4s. The only sizeable loss in this section was a point reces- sion by Florida East Coast first mort- gage 415s. These sold at a new low since the ‘beginning of 1929. Oil company bonds were quiet. Tractions were strong. Cuban-American Sugar 8s and Cuba Cane 7s, improved slightly. United States Rubber 5s were in- fluenced by some heavy buying and ad- vanced nearly 2 points. These bonds are now 5 points above their low level of 1929. On the other hand Inter- national Paper 5s dropped 1!z points. Some recovery was made by foreign descriptions that have been heavy in recent sessions. Obligations of Bolivia, Brazil, Rio de Janeiro City and Colom- bia improved. City of San Paulo 8s were 2 points higher. Bogota 8s ad- vanced a similar amount. French, Bel- giap, Italian and Central European credits were fractionally higher.

C. Wholesale Market—Eggs Are Cheaper. Municipal Fish Market this morning was the scene of increased activity, consumers having about finished their leftovers from the holiday season and feeling that a change of diet is needed. Receipt of supplies of carp, yellow perch, pike and several varieties of small fish caught in Winter seins in crecks emptying into the river below Alexan- dria, served as & reminder of the prob- able near approach of Spring. “'And shad and herring from Florida, commented a dealer, “also made it ap- pear that Spring is not far distant, the the heavy runs to appear in the lower Potomac during the early Spring sea- son.” It was said by dealers that shad and herring received from Florida to inaugu- rate the opening of the season here, the season opening January 1, were of splendid size and in the best possible condition. Roe shad were offered at 60 and bucks at 40 cents a pound, the herring selling at 15 cents. Other Fish Receipts. Pike recelved from Potomac River netters attracted more than ordinary attention, only small quantities of them usually being caught in nearby waters, wnd high prices ruled this morning. Carp and yellow perch sold around 25 cents a pound. Rockfish, jumping mullets, black sea- bass, spots, croakers, halibut and sal- mon were among other fish offered re- tailers. Dealers also had shrimp, scal- lops and lobsters, as well as crabmeat from Maryland, Virginia and Missi sippi packers to claim attention of re- tatlers. A further easing of the butter and egg market was reported this morning, prices of both commodities being cheaper. Print butter prices dropped to 39 and 40 cents, tub butter selling at 38 and 39 cents. Hennery eggs were quoted at 50 and 51, fresh selected at 48 and 50 and current receipts at 47 and 48 cents a dozen. Yesterday's warm' weather proved a serious handicap to both dealers and consumers, demands, due to weather conditions, not having been exception- ally brisk. This morning’s weather pre- diction proved more favorable, accord- ing to statements of dealers, and de- mands showed an appreciable increase. Both in the commission house dis- trict and on the farmer's line dealers had heavy receipts of vegetables, sup- plies being suggestive of the Summer season. Kale was quoted at $1.50 and $1.75 a barrel, spinach at 75 cents to $1.25 a bushel, artichokes were offered at $1.25 and $1.50 a bushel, turnips at 175 cents, cut-off carrots at 50 cents a basket and salsify at $1 a dozen buncnes. Fruit receipts continued airly heavy, today's receipts proving as attractive as receipts during tne Christmas and New Year holiday season. DLemanas we{rew repor;ed mrl{" he:v;n reased receipts of poultry today proved interesting to dealers, as did in- creased receipts of eggs, and dealers an- ticipate still further increases and lower prices the coming week. Meat prices this morning continued un- changed. Today's Wholesale Prices—Jobbers’ Prices Slightly Higher. Butter — One-pound prints, 39a40; tub, 38a39.
