LOCAL BANKS ASKED FOR PAYMENT
ON ANGLO-FRENCH WAR LOAN
Financial Institutions Well Supplied With Funds b,.
Nevertheless Closely Scrutinize Collateral
Investors Buying Railroad Securities

Local bankers received this morning
notification that the first II per cent. in
stalment of their share OF the Anglo
French war loan had been called for pay
ment ON November Is. II Us estimated
that between 25 and 30 millions were taken
by this city, so that the amount involved
should he around $4,000 900. As the banks
are II anything ovcrsupplied with funds,
tho payment is not expected TO affect the
local money market Notwithstanding
their large surplus funds the financial in
stitutions here are sCrutinizing collateral
very closely these days aud are showing
great reluctance i'm handling the so-called
war stocks" Some banks, In fact, refuse
TO touch certain issues and discount others
as much as - per cent of their market
quotations.
a feature of the early trading today
was a sudden up-spurt in Electric
Storage Battery. This stock has been
hanging back for some time despite
steadily expanding earnings, so that the
rise did not create much surprise The
anthracite coalers were aided by the
recent court decisions as well as by
the favorable showing made by the
Reading Company In its September re-
port. The surplus for the month was
Sl0i,6o9 against S9S,i57 year ago, and
this was i'm the face of poor period for
the Coal and Iron Company and the
smallest anthracite tonnage of the year
While each month the railway business
has run ahead of last year, that Of the
coal company has been behind. For three
months the railway gross was a gain Of
S532,Si and the coal company gross
decrease Of S1,1Sl, ,225. BY reducing operat-
ing expenses i'm September, the railway
company made gain i'm surplus earned
for the three months larger than the in
crease in gross and the actual surplus,
S2,21 79l, for the period was the best in
the past three years. The coal company
reported a deficit in each of the three
months this year, or a total of S252,962
against a surplus of S65, 500 in 1914.
Another interesting September report
which came out today was that of the
LehiEh Valley Transit Company, which
continued to show large increases in earn

TEXTILE TRADE
GAINING GROUND
Wool Prices Well Maintained.
Leather Market Active,
and Advancing

Textiles show an improvement over the
preceding week, and there is more activ-
ity, especially among the sweater and
hosiery mills, according to r. G. Dun d
Co. Cotton yarn dealers report a better
trade, there being more inquiry and a
better spot business. Dealers in the local
wool market report nothing new in their
line during the last week, manufacturers
are fairly we'll supplied, and those using
wOrsted yarns appear to be well sup
piled and are not disposed to buy ahead.
There is a feeling of confidence among
the holders of woods, and prices are well
maintained, as a higher market Is looked
for. Some manufacturers report that they
are experiencing some difficulty in OBJ
tanning the numbers they require. The
lack of proper dyestuffs is still causing
apprehension among the manufacturers,
and some report that they are compelled
to use inferior dyes. A good feeling ap-
pears to prevail among manufacturers,
however, and the general betterment in
condition is looked for
The leather market is active and prices
firm and high. There is only a small
stock of better grades of leather on hand
and for this there Is an active demand
Glazed kid is selling stronger than for
some time and prices are more firm. Shoe
