Stock Leaped to do on Heavy
Buying-United States Steel
in Strong Demand.

Heavy buying Of Cramp Shipbuldins
shares and United states Steel were the
outstanding features of the dealings in
the Philadelphia Stock Exchange today
report from Pittsburgh to the effect
that the Cramp Company had placed
a large order for steel with the Carnegie
Company was a stimulating factor, al
though an official Of the shipbuildlng
company branded the story as exagger-
ated. He explained that the order was
not new one, but had been placed some
time ago, the metal to be used in con-
structinB ships already under contract.
Nevertheless n director OF the Cramp
company estimates that earnings for the
year. ended April 30 will approximate 10
per cent on the stock. In 1914 earnings
were about Il per cent. but the outlook
for next year is exceptionally favorable.
IL is said the company's untitled tonnage

last year and new high record of profits
is expected. Only a few weeks ago the
stock was selling as low as IS. Today 1t

ing Cambria Steel along with II. Elec-
tric Storage Battery extended It's rise to
two points, while Union Traction and
Lake Superior also improved.
The flrmness in the local traction group
was aided by talk OF enforcing the 1905
agreement between the city and the
Broad street Rapid Transit Company,
which is leased by the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit and calls for the removal of bus
lines from Broad street 1t is said that
under this agreement no carrier can oper-
ate on the street during the life OF the
contract, which has still II years to run.
