Financial Notes

INVESTMENT STOCKS STRONG.

CONSIDERABLE activity has characterized the Stock Markets during the past week, and although prices have moved some- what irregularly, a feature has been the broadening out of busi- ness in many directions. The outstanding feature, however, has been the general upward tendency in high-class investment securities, a tendency which has not been checked by the recommencement of the flotations of capital of the trustee order. Several corporations have made issues of fairly large amounts in 3 per Cents at the price of 99 per cent., and in allcases a gr4 response has been given by the investor.
