Electric Storage Battery continued to reflect statements which have re cently ben circulated regarding unusually large earnings by advancing 1 to 55, while at the same time becoming one of the most active Issues There ivas also further activity in General Asphalt common, which advanced to 35U, up Vi above last night's close. Lake Superior Corporation, which had showed unusual momentum jes terday, was only dealt in on a moderate scale this afternoon, and declined a fraction. Other stocks were neglected. On small transactions Lehigh Navigation advanced H, United Gas Improvement was marked up a trifle, Pennsjlvanla Railroad scored a fractional gain and Reading was up . Steel common did' not do much, but, following the trend after the open, lng on the big board, it declined. Bond trading was small and uninteresting. The earnings statement of the Keystone Telephone Company for Jun and six months, which came out today, showed increases in the gross, but a falling off in net in both cases, due to higher operating expenses. The gross for JUne was 133,944, against $132,253 a year ago, and the net was $54,489, as compared with $62,303 For six months the gross was $807,309, against $777,827 the corresponding period of 1917, and the net was $343,746 against $374,873.
