Price Bid Up on Tnlk" of Sub
stantial Earnings Large
Dealings in Steel.
Electric Stornso Battery was again a
leader of the Philadelphia market today,
making a new top price for tho year on
buying by houses usually regarded as be
ing close to tho management. Oooil nrca-
cnt earnings and anticipation of benefits
to coino If the proposed expansion of this
country's submarlno fleet nctually takes
piaco wcro uie stimulative factors. Tho
Street even talked of an Increase In the .
dividend, but this was not regarded ns 1
likely to occur In the near futuro, at any '
rale. As the rate Is 4 per cent, on par of ,
1100. at S8 the stock yields nearly 7 per !
cent., white, for Instance, Ucthlehem 1
Steel, splllna at five times tho price, pays
nothing, ami United Slates Steel, 10 points
higher, yields nothing. '
t'nlted States Steel was actively bought I
at advancing quotations, while Email 1
gains woro established In Cambria Steel,
Baldwin Locomotive. Heading and Gen
eral ABphatt. The usual dividend wn
declared on the preferred stock of thu
latter.
The heavy trading In Steel continued
through the afternoon. Cambria got ac
tlvo also. The Keystone Telephone Issues
nlsu developed strength, as did Crnmp3
Shipbuilding and Philadelphia Compnny.
Wur order tnlk was tho dominating in.
lluottci Irrespective of whether the con
cerns mentioned could be adapted to such
uses. Tho advance in steol prices, too,
was n stimulant to optimism.
Bullish tnlk was heard on United f!n
Improvement becauso of profits tho com
pany Is deriving from sales of certain
of Its bl-products at high prices, but the
stock was not nctlvo. The trnctlons ruled
steady, with Union up half a point.
Tlicro is reason to bollovo that penco
bus been declared between City Hall and
tho management of the company, but the.
Jitney problem Is yet to bo solved, and
traders are Inclined to leave this group
of stocks alone for tho time being.

LONDON. Aug. . The elty la unsettled
after tho Auguat bank holiday.
Thoro arc three IS nor cent, war loan
call due this month, totaling; tf.rSff.OCi.fXW.
Much n mass of payments Is unprece
dented In our history. All past and cur
rent savings are absorbed in the wur, nnd
no capital is really available for any form
Of tirrxlllcflv.. mnlnmtlw V.vftiAl...
j American Industrials excite omd upecula-
tivc interest, nnd the Block Exchange
wishes tho American war order list had
been available here.
Tito Itusslan erneimtlon of Warsaw and
lilga Is anticipated.
Tho 'Weatmlnster Gazette, our most of
llclal organ, describes tho rapid waatago
of tho German army and saya the "th
war of exhaustion Is In a favorable posi
tion." It ndvocntes patience; and endur
ance, nnd naerlbcs Germany's amazing cf
fort to her inobltlzatlon of female and
child labor. 1'eraonally, 1 doubt whether
this policy of war of exhaustion or at
trition be ncccptablc to cither the masses
or classes in Western Europe, as It must
Involve tho gradual confiscation of prop-
i.y. wun unimaginauie destruction of
life.
The tltiBslau national debt. It Is stated,
will bo nearly doublet! by tho end of tho
year, nnd the German increase trill ba
much greater. Perhaps political economy
will end tho war after all.
Confidence In our own security nnii ic
strength Is unshaken.
