The war orders stocks and the indus
trial list as q whole, with the exception
of the copper stocks. gave evidence OF
coming back into favor again yesterday.
Ga!ns ranging from a fraction OF q point
to ?is points were made In such issues
as American Locomotive. Crucibie Steel.
Bale Twin Locomotive. Bethlehem Steel.
Westinghouse and other stocks which
have owed their big rise to the fact that
they had received Wal contracts. The
belief that peace Is still a long way or.
coupled with reports that new war orders
were TO be placed here soon. was partly
responsible for the return to prominence
OF these issues.
More credit for their strength was
given. however. to the fact that a o
siderable short interest has been built
up in them during tho recent rise In
rails. Many OF the professional element
have been feeling for a top In the indus
trials and Going short of II market on
the belief that II the move in the rails
continued with the v.gor which II mani
tested earlier in the week the interest In
the war brides hereafter would be a
waning one. Attempts 20 cover yester-
day by this short interest demonstrated
that the supply Of these stocks for sale
IL not so plentiful as many spectators
had been led TO believe and that the
popular Interest In the war bride" Is
still keen whenever there are even the
slightest signs Of a renewal Of the up
ward movement in these issues.

of last March. II Is still selling well
above Its normal price, however. which

the big drop is said to be the fact thai

Moreover. the prices for quicksilver al
the high figure wero so prohibitive thai
manufacturers OF paint and makers of
explosives were driven to seek substi-
tutes for the metal TO use IN Their variou,

the demand for quicksilver has thu,

Gold ana Foreign Liquidation.

Foreign exchange men believe hat the
recent movement Of gold from Ottawa
to this city has come to an end and that
Tor the time being at least Great Britain
will see ut to stabilize the market for
sterling exchange with sales of Arneri-
can securities. Just as sfe did previous
to the time when tho unsettlement of
the stock market over the Sussex crisis
rendered this market "a poor one for the
liquidation Of her holdings Of our stocks
n bonds In all England has sent
some $ls,5oo.O 900 gold on this latest
movement.
The foreign exchange experts believe
that the stock market through the re-
cent advance In tho rails has been
placed In a position where II IL not tit to
take soine foreign selling and that such
liquidation II already on. They cay
that England will keep her fingers on
our financial pulse until she once more
feels that II nay be time TO sbate the
selling OF our securities and that then.
II the rate of exchange Justifies II, We
may set more British gold. Yesterdays
stock market tended to bear out the
reasoning that foreign liquidation was
already again under way. all Of the So
called international stocks being weak,
while the industrials gave such a dis
play OF strength AS has not been evident
since professional activity turned its
attention to the rails.

as high a. 6ats. Yesterdays close rep
resented an advance Of y Of a point

OF the stock yesterday was said to have
come from excellent sources and was
accompanied by conside rable talk OF divi-
lend payments to be inaugurated In
July. Some reports were thai the rate
II which tho payments OF dividends
would be inaugurated would be In excess
Of s per cent. per annum II 10 ru-
,nored, however, that any movement to

vance In the stock II was recalled that

rectors and officers Of the company made
an extended inspection trip to the com-
pany plants. At the time It was ru-
lnored that tho French Government was
IN this market to place an order Tor a
large number of big shells and that the
MidyaIe steel and Ordnance Company
was looked upon as n OF the COM
panies most likely to receive a large
part or all OF the contract. which would
involve many millions OF dollars.
