BETTER FEELING
IN LOCAL MARKET
Cambria Steel Scrip Strong
Feature-Rapid Transit and
General Asphalt Decline.

Although the local market was not
active today, there was a better feeling
throughout the Street. Demand, however,
was not large and there was a disposition
among trades to continue the waiting atti-
tude of the last several days, until there
is some favorable news, especially about
the shipping situation abroad. Price
movements were mixed, being divided be-
tween advances and declines.
The bond market was the most active,
and IT was reported in the Street that
investors are gradually coming back Into
the market because OF the cheap money
rates and the fact that many issues are
now selling at a point where there is a
favorable return on an investment. The
outstanding feature of strength in this
branch Of trading today was Cambria
Steel scrip Of 1916. s217 worth changing
hands at gT1S. UP s1.50 from the last pre-
vious sale. The company's scrip of 1917
also scored an advance of 80 cents to
96lb. A ruling was made by the Phila-
delphia Exchange that on and after
March 1 all deliveries of the Cambria
Steel scrip shall be by transfer, except
otherwise agreed on at the time of the
sale.
As far as the amount of trading is
concerned, the new Pennsylvania AZ per
cent. bonds. when issued furnished the
active feature. They changed hands at
10sN, UP ss from the final Of yesterday.
HeauinR general mortgage AS "hSh
reached a new low point for the year
yesterday at s1ts, sold at the same figure
today.
Five shares of General Asphalt pre-
ferred sold at 631a, off s1.50 from the last
previous sale and the lowest point this
year.
Rapid Transit trust certificates sold at
97s, the low point of the year, 100 shares
changing hands at this figure. This is
" below the last previous sale The COM
pany stock sold at 1Ob. UNCHANGED from
the last sale. United Gas was stronger
being UP n at S21s. The slight strength
in this issue was no doubt due to the
announcement of President Bodine that
he and the other officers of the company
are progressing with the plans for re-
organizing the street lighting business OF
the companies controlled by the U. G. l''
so that they will conform with the views
of the Department of Justice.
On the sale of S5 shares North Penn
sylvania gained 81, selling at 81. Fifteen
shares of Lit Brothers sold at 1919, after
1881 had been bid. Steel common, on
short covering. gained Ss to Az. Philadel-
phia Electric, on moderate selling, lost
u to 23Ss but later recovered part OF
its loss at 23A.
Just before the close 20 shares OF
Cambria Steel sold at AZ, UP 81.

GRAIN PRICES DROP
ON EMBARGO REPORT
All Cereals Ended Lower in
Chicago Pit-Longs Sold
Freely.

CHICAGO, Feb. 25.--The shipping situa-
tion abroad, as the result of the placing
of the war zone around Great Britain,
coupled with the announcement that the
Federal Government insurance bureau
had decided to suspend writing insurance
on cargoes of ships to belllgerent coun-
tries, had no effect on the grain market
today. In the early trading May and July
wheat both sold off under offerings by
commission houses, but later In the day
both strengthened and made good ad-
vances over the final prices of yesterday.
There was report in the grain pit
in the late trading of the possibility of the
Government placing an embargo on the
exports of foodstuffs and prices of all
grains sold off, going below the final of
yesterday. May wheat ended 2ls cents
down at S153ss while July lost 3lt cents
at Sl25A There was also heavy llquida-
tion by longs
Advices from Washington suggested
that the Administration, through some
means or other, will endeavor to solve
shipping problems so that American ex-
ports may be conducted with less risk
Until the policies of the belligerents are
more clearly defined, opinions as to the
future trade count for little.
All in ell, there is nothing to encour-
age purchases of the new crop month,
May, taking the great harvest prospect
for 1915.

The action of the Federal Government
ii suspending insurance rates to the war
sone was naturally looked upon as a
streugthening factor In the foreign ex-
change market, but it did not have any
Improbable effect. 1t was thought that
this action would place damper on our
enormous exports and thus reduce our
nrge credit balance abroad, thus caus-
ing more strength in exchange rates. The
foreign exchange market during the morn
ing was quiet and rates for the most part,
both in England and the Continent, were
about at the final-of yesterday.
