AT HIGHEST EVER
Bethlehem and United States Continue
Soaring Over Previous Highest
Price Quotations.

New York, Aug. 4-The stock mar
ket held up we'll during the morning
and in some instances gains were in
creased.
Transactions in L. S. Steel were
heavy and the quotation was advanced
two points to 69H. exceeding the high
est figures of 1914 and 1913, when the
stock was ON a dividend basis. Bethle-
hem Steels rise was increased Il
points to 2S9.
After a mixed opening today the
stock market developed sudden
strength with a keen demand for steel
and oil shares. coppers and various
other industrials.
Trading again ran largely to the war
stocks and Bethlehem Steel outdid its
previous rapid advances. 1t opened at
278A. as compared with yesterdays
close OF 26s, and on the next sale
jumped to 2s6. It then advanced to
2S7. an overnight rise of 10 points and
a gain of IL points over its previous
high record.

WEATHER OBSERVATIONS.

Low pressures which prevail from
the lake region to the middle Atlantic
states, with separate centers oyer
eastern Wisconsin and southeastern
New ork. have bee nattended by rains
from the Atlantic coast westward to
the upper Mississippi valley. At
Raleigh, n. c., the rainfall amounted
to 5.26 inches; at Buffalo, n. Y, to 2.4S
inches, and at Washington, D. c., to
232 inches. The western area of high
pressure and fair, cool weather ex-
tends from the valley of the Red River
ofrthe North to Texas, while the north
western low remains over Alberta and
Saskatchewan. Owing to the slow
eastward movement of these condi-
tions, unsettled and continued cool
weather is indicated for this vicinity

York was brought to a stand on the
viaduct 40 feet over the path of Mill
creek and those on board for hours
watched houses and household goods
being swept down the torrent.
The rush of the water down State
street flooded nearly every store on the
thoroughfare and floating wreckage
added to the damage by smashing
hundreds of display windows.
Rain Torrent All Night
Throughout the night the torrent of
rain continued with only brief inter
walls of clear weather. Only the wide
mouth of the creek at the lake shore
prevented much more serious devas-
tation. Piles of debris on the streets
intersecting the path of the food were
heaped up Is feet high in some cases.
A dozen of the largest plants in the
city will be closed down for ten days
or two weeks until the machinery in
the first floors can be cleared away.
Stretches of Mill creek had been
covered over in several places, and
homes and factories had been built
over the ordinarily quiet stream.
Wreckage lodged in those culverts and
caused the water to back up until it
spread far over each bank
Reports of damage to tracks began
to come through before midnight and
at that hour word was received that all
four tracks of the Lake Shore and
those of the Nickel Plate had been
swept away between Erie and Moore
head, the first station east.
Trains Routed Around Flood.
Trains that had passed through Buff
falo, west-bound, were recalled early
today and sent over the Michigan Cen
trail Canadian line to Detroit These
included the Twentieth Century, west
bound, which left New York yesterday
afternoon. the Boston & Chicago spe-
cial due here, the Southwestern spe-
clal leaving New York at p. m, the
Lake Shore limited. out of Buffalo, and
the Big Four limited. which left New
York at so. Half dozen east bound
trains, including No. IS, the east-bound
Twentieth Century, due in New York
at $40 a. m. today. were held up by
washouts.
The rain storm which eliminated in
the cloudburst at Erie, covered all of
northern Pennsylvania and western
New York. 1t began with a terrific
downpour yesterday afternoon and
continued practically without cessa-
ton all through the night and we'll on
into today. In no place except in the
immediate vicinity of Erie, however,
did it approach the cloudburst stage.

eraI cases families still refused to seek
safety.
Four blocks on either side of the
stream, including State street, the main
business artery of the clay, were COW
cred with a depth of from six inches
to five feet.
Early this morning gas mains all
over the city were cut off and tele-
phone, street car and electric lighting
service were paralyzed.
The charitable societies, the armory,
hotels and hastily organized shelter
clubs gave refuge to hundreds who
saved but their own lives and a few
meagre belongings.
The darkness, the danger of broken
electric wires and the 25-mile current
of the flood made the work Of rescue
extremely perilous.
The life saving crews from the Lake
Erie shore front and the members of
the naval militia started the search
for bodies.

Danger from falling high tension

a heavy guard of police and volunteers

Traffic Is Tied Up.
