STEEL SHARES STRONG
ON LOCAL EXCHANGE
Warwick, Cambria and U. s..
Steel in Demand-War
Orders Aid Brill

Another strong stock market confronted
the traders In Philadelphia Mt the OPEN
ing this morning. War supply special
ties were again the features. Baldwin
Locomotive and j. @. Brill shares were
aided In their advance by the statement
of visiting officials of the Russian Gov
ernment that negotiations were in prog
ress with the two concerns regarding "A
big order for tractors to haul cannon.
Electric Storage Battery was also in
moderate demand and so was United
states Steel, but Cambria was inclined
TO ease OFF and so was PENNSYLVANIA
Steel preferred. The volume of trading
fell Off as the day advanced, and the tone
became somewhat irregular.
Warwick Iron and steel turned strong
in the later dealings, advancing point
United States steel continued buoyant
and Cambria recovered its loss whereas
Baldwin reacted. Reading and Phiadel-
phia Traction were other strong features
The Lehigh Valley Transit group was
aided by the favorable June report of
earnings. The common stock made
new top price. The company's June net
earnings were nearly double those of
last year. the increase being $685.. For
the 12 months ended June 30 the net
income over interest, rentals and taxes
was S237.32l, an increase or $3i, 1875. In
cidentally the Philadelphia and Western
10 per cent The surplus for the month
was SlO,O12 compared with $4,000 in July,
1914.
In contrast to these pleasing reports the
American Railways Company showed
decrease OF S37.5S5 in gross earnings for
July and the stock declined a dollar
In the bond section business was light,
but the tone was firm, Wesbach 5s rose
point to %. while United Railways In.
vestment So also moved up n point to &C.
,Pennsylvania 4l3s were In active demand
In connection with the Improvement
shown by the Philadelphia Company
Eroup Of securities of late, interests close
to the management say they would not
be surprised II the July net earnings
would display an increase of $i50,000 over
the same period a year ago. In June the
net of all the Philadelphia Company sub
salaries increased 1928, i05, in May $50, 7l9
and in April $50. .sS6, n total gain OF
$240,O1O for the first quarter of the cur
rent fiscal year.
That investors have been steadily pick
ing up high grade stocks Of late has been
known for some time, but concrete Illus
tration of the fact came today In the form
of a statement by the Pennsylvania Rail-
road that the total number of Its stock
holders on July 81 was 93 1856. the largest
number ever reported. This number of
stockholders will participate in the divi-
dend payable on August 81. Foreign IL
quotation of American shares has not ad-
versely affected the ownership Of Penn
sylvanla stock abroad. At the close of
July, 1915, there were rs more foreign
holders than on July 81. 1914. The total
number of stockholders in that period in
creased 3427. The number OF women
stockholders on July 81, 1915, was 45,354,
which was equal to 1926 per cent. OF the
total number,
