BRIEF, BUT INTERESTING
ASPHALT PYROTECHNICS
Striking Stories in Bank Parlors Concerning Holdings of Promi
nent Interests Electro Storage at Year's Topnotch
A brief but exciting pyrotechnic dis
play In the General Asphalt shares,
lifting the common 4 points to 88 nnd
the preferrtd 8 points to 131, with the
uplifting of Electric Storage Dattery to
the year's top price, 100, furnished the
principal events of today's local mar
ket. Both demonstrations were of more
than passing interest. In that It was
another vivid illumination of ever-possible
startling price changes where the
floating supply of stock has been re
duced to n minimum.
It has, long been an open secret that
in both Issues there has been what may
be termed as a systematic, if not scien
tific absorption of the stocks of both
concerns. In either instance the identity
of the purchasers has been cleverly
concealed, although there is ample testi
mony Indicating that a bulk of the
stock has 'gone to New York. This is
particularly true as to the Asphalt is
sues. The consensus of opinion in broker
age circles is that the remarkable for
ward movement in the Asphalt shares
is controlltd and engineered by an In
fluential New York clique. This may
be correct, and the movement after all
maj he nothing but a speculative cam
paign pure and simple.
Signs, however, are not lacking to
indicate there is something of far more
reaching impottance behind the big rise
in these shares than a mere stock ex
change coup. As a matter of fact, in
banking parlors there are some might
interesting stnrlea ofla, .(. .1.'.
o T "". vwijiriuui nir
change of ownership of the Asphalt
shares
It credence is to be placed in some
of these stories, the controlling in
toM"' ..f (Icneial Asphalt hangs ou 1111
extremelj narrow balance. In truth, it
U'i" 1 i lurgfl upon the ability
of certain prominent local Interests to
regain or maintain holdings which they
ucte tempted to part with during the
suift rise in the stocks and which
the felt could be easily rebought when
the speculative boom in the stock col
lapsed. The story goes on to say that
these interests sold Into a bag and
did not realize the real purport of the
movement until too late.
How much of this stock has been
.regained is a matter of conjecture.
This mu'ch, however. Is evident, that
In every attempt to acquire any con
siderable line of stock the price is vig
orously bid tip. This would suggest that
whoever the new Interests are, they
seem to have an astonishing knowledge
of the location of the principal holdings.
As most of the stock acquired during 1
the last six months has not been trans
ferred the identity of the buyers still
remains a mystery.
The revived buoyancy of the two
above-named favorites, while having a
strengthening Influence upon the gen
eral locnl market, failed to inject activ
ity In the trading, which altogether con
tinued of the same desultory character,
producing only fractional shaving or
plevation in prices.
Philadelphia Electric continued to be
well taken at 25;4. an overnight gain
of Vi. American Ship retrieved all the
ground lost In the early slump yester
day, advancing to 30. although it
Inter yielded some of the Improvement.
T tilted Uas Improvement, Philadelphia
Traction nnd Tonopnh Belmont were
uueianged. Philadelphia Rapid Tran
smit was higher, but American Gas,
00 a sale of five shares, lost 5 points
of yesterday's bulge.
Disappointment in the failure of the
management to give more detailed in
formation concerning the committee's
plan for settlement of the claim of the
subsidiary railroad bondholders' claim,
found reflection in n fractional shading
of Lake Superior Corporation to 21 Vt.
Philadelphia Convpnu cuinulatlie pre
ferred was fractionally lower on smnll
offerings.
The only strong spot in the bond di
vision was American Gas nnd Electric
fi, which were up 2Vt per cent. On
the other hand, Pomuylvnnia Company
consolidated JIU weie off 1, and the
Heading general 4s 1 per cent. Phila
delphia Electric os and Lehigh Valley
6s each shaded per ceut.i

'Steel Confident Harmonious
Relations Will Be Restored Be
tween Capital and Labor
DIMINISHING DEALINGS
New York, Sept. 12. The New York
Hvenins Sun's closinj; linnucial review
today says :
Today's stock market session was
I important onlj in so far iim the sta
bility of prices served to indicate the
confidence of investors nnd specula
tors that hiiimnnious relations will he
restored between capital nnd Inbor with
out the occurrence of violent disturb
ance. It is the libor upheaval which hn
been inilitiiting ngninst quoted values
for some weeks nnd while this consider
ation is still one of the main forces
overhnngiiig the mnrkct the street was
more hopeful on this score today thnn
it has been for some time.
In fart, it is possible to find business
lenders who will welcome the culling
of 11 strike of steel employes, so sure
nre thev that the union" cumiot suc
ceed in this instance and that their
defeat will ( heek further ngitation.
While the trading element wns in a
fnlrlj cheerful frame of mind today
respecting the utnikct outlook, there
. ii..,rtieii'sv, n noticeable contrac
tion in the nliime of business done, nnd
... . vi.r mil miiu'd t:ir in either
direction.
The market did little more than mark
time most of the session nnd for this
reason wns a rather uninteresting affair.
There was little news of general bear
ing on securities nnd just at present
traders are awaiting day-to-day de
velopments for n cue, aggressive opera
tions were lacking.
NEW YORK COFFEE MARKET
