URGENT BUYING, THEN
STOCK PRICES REACT
Wild Scramble for Steel and Other Shares
at Wall Street Opening-Decline
Followed By Steadier
Tone.

New York, Nov 3.--Urgent buying OF
leading stocks began as soon as the gong
sounded in the stock exchange yesterday
There was wild scramble for United
States Steel which was traded IN on
different sides of the crowd at prices
varying so widely that the opening quo
tation was recorded as 10000 shares on a
run from 9Sls to 97-an extreme over
night gain of Az points. An abundant
supply of stock was available and, at
the end of the first 10 minutes, the price
was 95A. Many other market leaders
shared in the opening gains, notably oils,
eoppers, motors. railroads and shipping
shares. Norfolk & Western scored a
four point advance. Canadian Pacific and
St Paul each up 3la. Advances of three
for Chesapeake & Ohio and Az for Balti-
more & Ohio were noted. General Mo-
tors showed a gain of seven points.
Quick reactions followed with few in
stances of new low prices. The whole
market was in an indescribable hubbub.
When the dust settled, prices seemed
stabilized for the time, about half way
between the figures of Thursdays closing
and yesterdays opening.
Much of the early advance in prices
was brought about by the rush to cover
of bears who, apparently, did not seek
the publicity that would come to them
under the rule adopted by the governors.
A steady upward trend was evident at
noon.
The chief feature II The market around
midday was continuation of the order

the violent movements earlier. There
was a firm tone in many issues. Marine

STRIKE HOLDS UP
TWO LAUNCHINGS
The Fore River Situation Al
ready Brings Serious
War Consequences
DESTROYER BUILT IN
WORLDS RECORD TIME
Now the Walkout Has De-
layed 1t for an Indefinite
Time, Says Contractor

Boston, Nov. 3.--Serious consequences,
so far as Americas part in the war are
concerned, developed yesterday as re-
suit of the strike of half of the 1900
EMPLOYEES of the Fore River shipyard. A
torpedoboat destroyer, which had been
completed in worlds record time, and
which was the first of the series ordered
in a great rush by the navy depart
ment soon after the United States de-
clared war with Germany was to have
been launched to-day. Now work has
been stopped practically, and there is no
sign as to when the launching can take
place.
Mrs. Daniels, wife Of the secretary OF
the navy, was expected to be present
with Mr.. Daniels, and she was scheduled
to stand sponsor for the latest destroyer
to be finished To-day it appears that
neither Secretary Daniels nor Mrs. Dan
iels will be present and that the launch
ing may not take place so long as the
strike continues.
At the same time it was planned to
send down the ways a new submarine,
another class of warship which this
country may sorely need, especially II
the German fleet succeeds in breaking
through the blockade lines in the North
sea and heads for the Atlantic seaboard.
The situation with reference TO the sub
marine is similar to that of the destroy
indefinitely hung up.

VICTORY OF RAWADIE
RESULT OF STRATEGY
British Idea Was Admirably Executed,
But It's Sponsors Did Not Believe
the Results Would Be So
Sweeping.

London, Nov. 3 Correspondence Of
The Associated Press General Maude's
victory at Ramadie in Mesopotamia was
the result of a battle of the old pic
turesque style, before the "war of mac
ton" swept the spectacular element out
of modern warfare.
J The movement which determined the
whole action was the sudden swinging
around Of the British right until il be-
came the left, and the encircling move
ment of the cavalry, which robbed the
| Turkish garrison of its last free line Of
retreat. The idea was admirably exc
cuted, but even the stiff strategists of
the British army scarcely anticipated the
surrender of the whole Turkish eorce
without blow by the waiting cavalry.
The British witness" writing
from Ramadie, says in his account of
the battle:
1--WE captured Ramadie to-day, and
with il the whole Turkish garrison, in
Guiding its commander, Ahmed Bey, and
number of field guns, pom-po ma
chine guns and rifles.
Our force moved in two columns on
the night of Sept. q from an advanced
camp on the Euphrates, west of Eel
luia. one column on the right, the other
on the left, and at dawn they attacked
Hushaid Ridge, low line of dunes run
ming north and south from the Euphrates
to the Habbaniyah canal.
"To clear the ridge and cross the email
was our first objective. The first knobs
were quickly occupied. AT dawn we bonn
barded the main crest of the ridge, but
the Turks had evacuated it.
I'VE then changed our line Of attack.
The right column was withdrawn, and
swinging round west behind the left col
umn became the left wing of the force
Our front, three and half miles in
breadth, now lay between the Habbani-
yah canal on the right and Aziziyah ca
nal on the left, at point nine miles from
the Euphrates.
Our cavalry made wide sweeping
movement across the desert round the
right flank of the Turks and occupied
a line five miles west of Ramadie. BY
this move the Turks were cornered. Their
only chance was to drive in determined
ter-attacks and to break through be-
fore we drew the ring in closer.
''rhe expected attack began after three
o'clock the next morning, when the Turks
tried to break through between the cav
airy and the river. The action continued
for two hours till dawn, when it degen-
Grated into casual sniping. The nearest
Turkish dead were found within fifty
yards of the cavalry trenches.
"Soon after daybreak the infantry col
umn took up the attack again, and car
ried the last outlying defenses of the
Turks on our left An intense lombard
ment was opened on the Turkish
trenches.
"Our line of cavalry, far away west,
soon saw the dark masses of the enemy
approaching, and apparently prepared for
bloody battle The Turkish guns were
silent. and white flags went up all along
the line II was a general surrender.
Ahmed Bay. the Turkish commander, who
has been on the Euphrates all through
the campaign from the Battle Of Shaiba,
in March, 1918. and whose troops con
fronted US at Nasaravah all last summer
and autumn. came out and surrendered
with his whole force"

MORE TINPLATE NEXT YEAR
High Prices Have Attracted More Cap
ital and Caused More Mills.

The demand for tinplate from all cor
ners of the globe and the consequent high
prices prevailing have not only attracted
more capital and resulted in the erection
Of new mills, but have led the existing
mills to tin much greater proportion of
their black plate production than is ordi-
narily the case.
This practice, says a statement issued
to-day by the bureau of foreign and do

merce. will also be followed next year,
Judging from figures just made public by

which are based on returns from the
