Heavy buying orders ap peared In United Stales Steel and shorts found It difficult to cover. As a result tho quotation advanced sharply. Cam br!n, steel moved higher In sympathy, and the meet optimistic talk was heard on nil the steel stocks. As the day progressed new Issues canto to tho fore. Pennsylvania Steel pre ferred rose rapidly after an Initial point, ucclne to S3,' m'dvlng up to 86, while1 J, G. Drill soared over S points. Lehigh Valley Transit became buoyant and Cramp Shipbuilding advanced 4 points on a. single al Special reason for the rise In Penn sylvania Steel was fouml In tho announce ment of the placing of nn order by tho weatlnghouso Electric Company for 4000 tons ot t '.4-Inch rounds for tho making of rifle bnrrcls. Ualdwln Locomotive Jumped 3 points and fclcctrlc Storage Battery gained nnu its -mucn. i.aite superior, not to bo outdone, also hardened. Not only nre these Issues being stimulated Ty wnr orders, from abroad, but nlso by tho evident trend toward greater armament In this country, ' whlclt .means big de mands from our own Oovci'liment. There Is always the possibility of some of the European belligerents going bankrupt, but no such fear Is to bo entertained re garding homo "war orders," and the traders, realizing this, appear to have taken a fresh hold on tho securities of the companies Involved, and aie predict ing much higher prices for a number ot tho leaders. Tho traction shares were not effected bj (h.o commlsslon'3 approval of the extcn?iv'o transit facilities. The only limitation Imposed was In reference to those portlo'nrf of the projett for which me city nas not J'et presented plans. Dapld Transit ruled a fraction Hbova lost week's close. Philadelphia Company movSd up a point, aided by tho' -better reJWts or earnings of all the various subsidiaries. For Instance, whllo a few months ago tho receipts of . the United Railroads of San FrancUco were showing de clines of from J10M lo J1S00 a day, as compared with the preceding year, th property Is now reporting sains of from JtOOO to S1200 a day in gross receipts. Tho change for the better In the lust Jl.t months has been quite remarkable In tho Pittsburgh district. This group of prop erties Is ,now showing gains In total net earnings .of over $120,000' a month, equal to 3W per cent, a year oi jhc outstanding Philadelphia qompany common stock. Along Willi the heavy Increase In the Industrial consumption of gas nnd eleo trlclty, there hns been a gain of close which means much, os these commodities which means much of these commodities for domestic use nre sold at much higher prices than for industrial use.
