SPECULATIVE FEVER HERE;
"BUY WAR STOCKS 4 I]il
Bears Scarce in Financial District Leading
Steel Men OFF to Look at Lake
Superior Ore Fields

Speculation has become almost as ram
pant in Philadelphia of late as In New
York. The fact that this city is ngur-
ing largely in a series OF the biggest
deals promulgated since the days OF the
formation Of the United states Steel Cor
roration has set the local financial dis
trict In whirl Tips are rampant Buy
anything that In the remotest manner Is
connected with the equipment and sup
ply OF the belligerent natiops" Is the
slogan, and so far those who followed
this broad suggestion have made money
Nevertheless, the very violence of the
rise should breed caution. While orders
and earnings may well have justified the
uprush m some issues, there has, o.
course, been steady liquidation In
progress. Certificates that have been
locked up in strong boxes for years are
making their appearance on the street
whereas about the scarcest tldng in the
financial district today is bear This
means weak technical condition.
Where there are only a few shorts TO
cover the market Is apt to prove ex-
tremciv hollow, and a stock that can
jump 10 and is points In a day can also
drop just as fast at any time.
The probable success of the Anglo
French loan, however, makes important
foreign selling OF our securities much less
likely to continue at the same pace as
before In fact, the let-up in this liquida-
ton of late has been one of the con-
tributing causes OF the recent rise and.
doubtless, to a great extent has counter
acted the increase in investment liquida-
tion noted in this city during the last
few days. The sale of the Midvale Steel
Company, the stock OF which never has
appeared on the market, being held by
only a few families, Is concrete In
stance OF how the old investor regards
the present boom as more of an oppor-
tunity to cash in a good profit than TO
buy speculative issues at unprecedent-
edly high quotations.
Cambria Steel and Baldwin continued
to dominate the trading today. The
former. however, was not able to reach
its latest top price, whereas the latter
made another sensational jump of some
