NEW YORK. Aug. 1.-The general
market today exhibited strong tone.
although tho dealings were rather small
and tho hulk of tho turnover representa-
tive of the efforts of local profess IonalS.
Tho tremendous earnings Of the
United States steel corporation for tho
second quarter OF the year made public
after close yesterday was the inspiring
feature In the improved demand for the
shares OF this company.
Naturally. the strength In this partic-
ular issue impaired firmness to the gem
eral list and n few of the specIaltics.
notably Central Leather. exhibited a
strong advancing tendency.
It Is well-known fact that earning
power Of the Central Leather company
has In the recent past been abnormally
great and the management In the mattrr
Of disbursements has been very con-
servatirc. consequently large equities
have been established and tho financial
status Of the company undoubtedly con-
sidered strong. Peace talk was less in
evidence. but at the same time consider
able interest attached to the frequent
discussions along these lines animating
principally from the Teutonic powers
For immediate future tho price tendency
Is likely to be rather indefinite. although
conditions show further bettermcnt may

FINANCIAL COMMENT

By Private Wire to 4. f. Maston & co.
NEW YORK. Aug. 1.-The Steel Cor
poration's statement showed the ex-
,raordinary earnings which this corpor-
alton Is experiencing after allowing
nearly $4,000, 900 for excess profits TAX.
the company earned more than u per
cent on common stock during tho second
quarter. or at the rate Of nearly 5o per
cent per anuum. Such earnings arc as
tonlshins and gives nm insight or inc
enormous business which this company
and great many other companies are
experiencing and will experience. AS the
result OF our having entered the war.
The statement Of our foreign trade,
which also appeared yesterday. Is ndi-
cative Of tho extent Of the countrys
business. and while large part Of it Is
war business. we can look forward to
the future with confidence TINT 1t will
continue as our materials will he re-
uuired for reconstruction for many years
after the end Of the conflict. At the
same time. It must he borne In mind
that where our trade is large in hulk per
cIpita II Is that less that Of many Euro
pean countries. and will permit Of ex-
pansion. The market reacted slightly.
which was only TO be expected after Its
rapid rise.
We believe however. that the general
upward tendency will continue.
Mldvale quarter ended June 80. sur

cral tax depreciation and interest
charges. This compares with S12,0?6.-

Midwest Refining has acquired con-
troll Of Merritt OIL corporation. When
Merritt Oh corporation was organized
tho Midwest Refining company pur-
chased very large part Of It's stock. Mid
west Refining company has now &C
quired from a. E. Humphreys and his as
sociates their stock> holdings In Merritt
corporation which with its late holdings
acquired gives II control Of the Rig

NE" YORK. Aug. 1.-The heat had
