WAR ORDER STORIES
LIFTED LOCAL ISSUES
Brill, Baldwin and Cramp All
Buoyant, But Reacted at
Close on Official Deniala.
Ttepnrts that the war orders bobkctl
recently by tho J. G. Drill Company wcro
second In volume only to those of tho
Ilaldwln Locomotive Works cnused a sud
den upward spurt In the shares todny,
tho quotation ndvnncltiR rnpldly nearly
three points. It Is tmld that In addition
lo motortrucks, kitchens, ambulances
and other supplies, an order Ins just been
losed with Great llritnln for 13.000.OW
worth of hlfth-cxploslvo shells and that
the total orders under contract now
nmount to moro than J10.000.000. Complete
denial was mndo at the company's ofllce
of the entire story, and the stock prompt
ly reacted.
Haldwln Locomotive also became buoy
ant this morntim, after having been ly
ing comparatively dormnnt for some lit
tle time. Tho price ndvnncod easily
three points or more, Cramp Shipbuild
ing, rose about hnlf as much. Klsewhcre
tho market remained dull with telntlvely
narrow lluctuntlou. It Wns snld in con
nection with tho rise In Cramp's shnrcs
that three additional ships hnve been or
dered from the company, nnd that tho
plant, will have to bo enlnrccd for the
purpose. A contract Is Bald to havo been
Klven out for 2100 steel shapes by the
Cramp company on this account. Lake
Superior wns a wenk spot In tho after
noon trndliiiT.
In tho final hour prices rencted all
around. Brill went a point below last
night's close, while Electric Storage lot
tery nnd United States Steel also tdrncd
heavy. United Gas Improvement nnd
Philadelphia Electric followed suit, while
Lake Superior extended Its' loss to nearly
n, point.
It was rumored today that the Pennsyl
vania Ilntlrond was considering issuing
six-year 114 per cent, notes to provldo
funds to tnko up Its 31i per cent, bonds
sold In I'rancc to tho nmount of 418,000,
000. About $27,000,000 of these frnnc bonds
wero held as part collateral for ft loan
to the French, but wcro rebently released
and nrc being turned over to tho Pennsyl
vania Company, which Is desirous of ob
taining as many of the remainder as pos
sible. The size of the now note Issue, it
la snld. will depend upon the uinount or
these frnnc bonds turned In. The dif
ference In Interest charges Is expected
to bo moro thnn mode up by tho depre
ciated exchange on France, francs now
selllns at a discount of nbout lj',i per
cent.
A large stock exchange house made a
loan of J200.000' In this city today run
ning to tho end of the year at 3V1 per cent.,
and It was said that more money was
offering at this unusually low figure.

E,1ltor of tht Economist,

I.ONDO.V, Au. JO. The Improved treat
ment of prisoners In Germany nnd France,
tho paragraph nbout the freedom of tho
soas In Grey's letter and Germany's mod
mention of her submarine wnrfare nil
aUKRest it ltttlnt; down of tennlon for
lilfth diplomatic purposes.
Wnll street's rally encouraxed our
stock markets, but exchange still drops
ns It becomes more nnd more difficult to
till tho nap between Imports and exports.
Moreover, the American crop movement
cast Its shadow before.
Evidently tho market, which had been
led to rxpect a great loan on the Ameri
can side. Is dlsnppolnted by the announce
ment of the ltoldon-lleddlnit mission.
Some authorities express skepticism as
to whether there exists on the American
sldo nny largo surplus funds for genuine
Investment In a long-term external loan
which could not bo used by savings
bnnks or for trustee purposes, Our stiff,
rising Income tax presents another dlf
fleliUy. lloth. I suggest, could bo met
best by 5 per cent, trensury bills with
0110 year's currency, for which purpose
your bank money could bo loaned.
The compulsion movement Is much re
sented by trado union lenders. The dis
covery by tho rank and nlo that under
the Trench conscription, which Lloyd
Ooorgo called democratic, soldiers get
only 1 cent a day, has not helped tho
compulsory Idea. Lbor leaders naturally
reply to the pears by offering to confis
cate property If they confiscate labor.
Shipping shares Just now afford nn In
teresting problem In speculation. Freights
are high, but so nrc working expenses.
Second-hand shlpn fetch big prices. The
vnluo of shares depends on the duration
of the war, and It Is a question whether
enough shipping has been sunk to offset
tho reduction In the world's commerce
after tho war.
