 politics; the terrible scourges of in- temperance and the drug habit, and the social evil. deadly to soul and body alike; there are the problems of moral education, of marriage and di- vorce, of the treatment of depend ents-prisoners. detectives. paupers, etc. Any one of these left uncon- Quered would devastate our country as no war could.-Rev.

SUDDEN UP-SWING

Cramp Shipbuilding Advanced
Into New High Territory.
General Local List Buoyant.

Following the example set by Wall

an advancing tendency this morning.
Cramp Shipbuildng extended yesterdays

the movement. The traders took up Elec-
trio Storage Battery and, finding the float

easily able to lift the price over three
points, Cambria Steel also came In
for it's share of the general uplift, and so
did PENNSYLVANIA Steel preferred and Bald
win Locomotive. Incidentally official
denial was made OF the Harrisburg story
that the Bethlehem steel Company was
about to make bid for the purchase of
the Pennsylvania Steel Company.
In the late dealings considerable Cam
bria Steel was offered and the early
gain was not only cancelled, but a frac-
tional loss established. Others of the
leaders also reacted.
United States Steel was heavily bought
for time and moved into new high terri
tory. All advices in the trade are optim-
istic. Lehigh Navigation gained frac-
ton but Lehigh Valley remained quiet,
despite the annual report.
This document showed that passenger
earnings in 1915 fell Off 1857 per cent.
from the previous year, owing to the
practical suspension of immigration bust
ness n large proportion of which comes

to show 1913 per cent. earned on the
common stock, but this was leaving out
the surplus of the coal company. Net
earnings last year were swelled by the
inclusion of a special dividend of S6s5OSO
from the Temple Iron Company. During
the recent fiscal year the Lehigh Valley
paid off $2,SOO,OOO of obligations besides
buying in 100000 more of the Coke bond
issue.
