BETHLEHEM STEEL REACHED 600;
RAILS INACTIVE AND IRREGULAR
Many New High Records as Interest Centred in the
Specialties Foreign Exchange "vVeak
on Big Trade Balance
NEW TOIIK, Oct. 22.
r Interest again centred In the war stocks In the stock market today. The
demand for this class of securities was large, and prices were easily boosted
upward into new high territory for many Issues. The supply of the specialties
that Is, those which are known to have received large orders for war munition
or which are supposed to bo negotiating for them, nppears to be small. Thoso
holding stocks of this character at the moment do not want to dispose of
their holdings at the market value, holding off for a better figure. Tho result
of this Is that It takes very little effort to send quotations upward when any
one puts out urgent bids for any stock. Of course, there Is always a certain
amount of pront-taklng, such as was the case around midday today, when
prices were shaded from the best, although they still remained well nbovo
the final of yesterday.
On the first transaction today Bethlehem Steel sold at S00, a new high, and
Just H above the high of yesterday. The first sale was 12 points abovo tho top
reached In tho early trading yesterday. Tho majority of this was later clipped
off. General Motors, advancing 13 points, Studebaker four and Industrial Alco
hol five, also touched new high marks. There was a good demand for tho motors
Issues, especially for Maxwell Motors common, and It moved up three points
before the end of the first hour. A sudden outburst of buoyancy in Distillers'
Securities was not unexpected, as It followed tho announcement of tho with
drawal of certain Philadelphia Interests from the company and the entrance of
now peoplo In the directorate. Distillers Jumped about four points, whllo Indus
trial Alcohol scored a new high record.
A feature In the afternoon session was an advance of more than 18 points in
Baldwin, that lssuo being one of the most active In the trading. Moro attention
was given to the railroad shares, which In tho morning had been Inactive and
Irregular. They showed general strength. Norfolk and Western, for Instance,
rose two points, as did New Haven, while St. Paul was up nearly tho same
amount Tho rise was tho result of reports of constantly increasing freight
traffic, somo of the roads, due to a large extent to the large shipments of war
munitions to New York, being in a difficult way to supply tho demand for
freight cars. The closing was Irregular. Bethlehem Steel fell off, showing
a loss of 13 points for the day.
There was heavy selling for both accounts In Steel, operations for the de
cline naturally centring upon this stock, but tho stubborn way in which the
stock held Its ground showed that the buying power behind It Is still tremendous.
Steel did not go to a new high price, but its action in view of the great rise and
tho tremendous bulk of the stock is wonderfully impressive. Undoubtedly the
possibility of dividend action at next Tuesday's meeting has had an Influence In
the development of the big advance from 79 in the last ten days or so. Tho
gossip of the Street is that a new speculative crowd that has not been in tho
market for years took the bull side on a large scalo below 80. Intimations are
that this party has some connection with the Steel management. So far as
general sentiment In the Street Is concerned, the question of dividend action
appears to be an open one. One Idea is that instead of putting the stock back
en a regular annual dividend basis, a single dividend will bo declared.
There is also talk of a dividend by tho corporation's subsidiary which does
Its export business. All the stock of this company Is owned by the corporation.
But the big thing, of course, will be the statement of earnings. Some very en
thusiastic predictions have been in circulation, and It would be surprising if the
actual figures when known should equal the most enthusiastic of these esti
mates. There are good chances that the showing, especially If nothing Is done
about a dividend, may be Interpreted as disappointing by tho professional element.
New York Banks Gain Currency

interior $5,047,000, Including $1,068,000 national bank notes sent to Washington

ations proper was $5,392,000; this makes net gain by banks of $29,468,000.
MORE ACTIVITY
IN COTTON YARN
Wool Mills Have Ample Supply
of Raw Material Textile
Manufacturers Busy
The cotton yarn market has been more
active this week owing to the advance In
prices than for some time past, according
to R. O. Dunn & Co. No Important
change is reported In the local wool
market during the past week, and most
mills report that they have ample supplies
of raw material on hand at the present
time. The market favors the buyers.
The textile manufacturers appear to be
fairly busy, some report that they hrfe
good prders on hand and otners report
the business is dull. In some cases
manufacturers are unable to operate
their mills, owing to their Inability to
obtain the proper dye stuffs, i-. good
feeling prevails generally, business con
ditions appear to be Improving, with a
healthy growth and prices appear to be
firm. Weather conditions have affected
sales somewhat among the cloak and
nit manufacturers there Is, however, a
fair demand. Cloak manufacturers are
busy and are experiencing difficulties in
obtaining piece goods. Jobbers of woolens,
etc., selling principally to the near-by
manufacturers, are busy. The season has
been a satisfactory one and prices. It is
stated, have been steadily advancing.
There has been more activity the past
week or two among men's and boyo'
clothing manufacturers, materials are
high, collections, however, are Inclined to
be slow. Wholesalers and jobbers of
dry goods also report Increase In sales.
Shirt waist manufacturers are busy; the
season opened early.

grain market confronted operator at the

Trndlntt was light. Tho demand was
smalt and offerlngn few, December wheat
ended the day with a 3-cent low, while
May wag down nearly 2 cents.
A bcnrlsh sentiment continued to pre
vail. Irregularity was predicted as long
as tho weather continues so good and tho
arrivals and movements so heavy. Tho
underselling of Americans by Canadian
dealers Is causing no little worry. Tho
chief export sales are for Manltobns, with
domestic trailing along far In tho rear.
Corn nnd oats were firmer than wheat.
Prices continued fairly steady. It Is ex
pected that the continuation of tho fa
vorable weather conditions will cause de
pressions. Oats showed nn Increasing
export demand, which gave a good sup
port to quotations.
Kxport sales reported totaled 1,COO,009
bushels of wheat, mostly Manltobas.
Only 40,000 bushels of domestic were re
ported, but it Is rumored that moro sales

LONDON STOCK MARKET
Business Was Quiot Ponding News
From tho Balkans
LONDON, Oct. 22. Conditions custom
nry at the end of the week ruled on the
Stock Kxchange today, there being no
session tomorrow. Business generally
was quiet, but the markets were steady
In tho main. A close watch was kept
on tho news from the Balkans. Tho war
loans were active, but they showed Ir
regularity, following an upward move
ment that has lasted for a week.
Kxpcctatlons that the Government
would finance the war from the proceed
of Treasury bills, if possible, until the end
of the year, helped tho undertone of
other gilt-edged Issues. It is probable
that the fixed rate for Treasury bills
will bo advanced from 44 per cent, after
next Tuesday's payment of the final in
stalment of tho latest war flotation.
Hesitation was shown In tho American
section. United States Steel stocks were
strong on the belief that the statement
of earnings for tho quarter would be favorable.

A large producer of copper says that
inquiries for copper from Europe ag
gregate a total of close to 100,000,009
pounds. He says one of the largest for
eign buying movements since the war
began Is likely to set In at any time. "In
the meantime," said he, "the demand for
copper Is not slack by any means. I
estimate that close to 0,000,000 pounds
of copper have been sold In the last
10 days. The fact that producers have
been able to hold copper at 18 cents a
pound Is strong enough evidence of tho
strength of the copper situation."

LEBANON LIQUOR MEN
HIT BY DOCTOR STOUGH
Evangelist Says They Tried to Boy
cott, but Are on the Run
LEBANON. Pa., Oct. 22. "There never
was a time when the gang was more
frightened than now, and I want to give
notice to the 'rummies' that they are on
the run," said the Rev, Dr. Henry W.
Stough at the tabernacle last night. "It
was a great compliment they paid us
when they offered as high as $25 to mu
sicians, members of a band engaged for
the Sunday school and church parade
scheduled for tomorrow evening. If they
would refuso to march,
"All those musicians will be in line
notwithstanding the attempted bribe. This
Is on par with the boycotts which are un
dertaken by the liquor crowd In an effort
to drive business men from this cam
paign. What that devil's gang has never
been able to sense is that Ood Is back
of this movement of ours, and they can
not pay us any greater tribute thaji to
try to stop our bands. We want them to
fight, and the more they do It the bet
ter we like It, for we never feel good
unless we are fighting for the right."
Doctor Stough Is In high spirits follow
ing his participation during the day In
the injunction proceeding brought to re
strain him from speaking on the an
nounced topic of "Who Murdered Cy.
Miller?" and among other things said:
"I am the fellow who put 'pep' Into
pepper and 'pain' Into campaign. It
was Odd Fellows' night at the tabernacle
and 300 men of the three lodges attended
the service In a body. There were 40
"trail hitters," one of them being a
young man who turned over to Doctor
Stough the bottle of whiskey which he
carried In his hip pocket.
Sand Car on Fire
A sand car belonging to the P. It. T.
caught fire at 23d and Spruce streets
eaily today. The excited motorman. In
stead of putting out the" fire with sand,
as the firemen did when they arrived
later, sent In an alarm.

A wide Jump In napld Transit In the
closing dealings today took the local
financial district somewhat by surprise,
although It had been known that a
strong pool had been formed In the
traction shares. Itapld Transit was per
sistently bought all day. Around IS It
met with some large selling orders, but
by 2:30 o'clock these had been cleaned up,
nnd In the flnnl minutes the price uas
rushed up across 17. Confident predic
tions of a change In the administration
were heard on the Street, and these ap
peared to carry with them a conviction
that tho change would be of benefit to
the traction system. At all events houses
with political njllatlons wero the chief
buyers. Union Traction also moved up.
Although Philadelphia, which used to
bo the chief mnrket centre for powder
stocks, has given way to Now York,
nevertheless there Is still considerable
local interest In the various Issues of the
du Pont gtoup. To be sure, mnny long

Today local houses had orders to buy
the stock at the market, despite the sharp
overnight ndvance. It was stated by per
sons usually well Informed as to the big
powder's company's affairs that it has
now nn accumulated surplus of mote
than $123,000,000, nnd that the ofllclals of
the compnny are looking for opportuni

It Is said that lately tho company has
