Good Sales of District and Other Bonds
General Business Small.
The transactions in local stocks last week
were few and of but limited range. In the
bond list $1,000 1892 6's brought 102 and $500
of the same 101l; 81 800 10-40 Washington and
Georgetown 6's brought 1033. These bonds
will surely be paid of in January 1898, hence
the very small premium they command, which
includes accrued interest of over II per cent.
The bond script of the U. s. Electric
Lighting Company has improved considerably
in price within the past few days. Up to
Thursday the bid was but 104, but later the bid
was advanced to a, with sales OF $4,000 at

stock; sales were made on the board of Is
shares at the equivalent of 103, and shares at
1O4 Privately the stock was wanted at 105
Since October /, the stock of this company
has been fully paid up to 100. the par value.
The scrip of the Washington and Georgetown
Railroad is in demand. A $50 piece sold for

There was but one sale of Washington Gas
stock last week, 10 shares brought but $43.
The lowest offering was at "A at the close.
Since the passing of the October dividend
by the directors of the Belt Railroad Com
pany there has been no pressure to sell the
stock. But two shares changed hands last
week at 42. The bid on this stock during the
week has ranged from 33 to 35, the lowest
offering at 4S. An important financial event
of the week was the call by the Comptroller
of the Currency on the national banks for q
statement of their condition on Fri
day, the 25th of September. While
the banks were not as we'll prepared for
the call as usual, anticipating it fully week
later, the banks of the District as customary
made handsome showing.
An important sale of local stocks is an
nounced to take place tomorrow at o'clock
for the estate of the late Samuel Norment, at

NO ALL-NIGHT CARS.

President Hurt Says the w. 81 G.. Com
pany Will Not Put Them on Again.
The recently published statement that the
Washington and Georgetown Railroad was
shortly 10 resume running all-night cars
caused considerable pleasure to people who
are compelled to be out after the regular cars
have stopped running. This report originated
from statement of one Of the employees of
the road that the company was preparing the
schedule for the trips. 1t now appears the
company does not intend placing any "owl"
cars on the line the present fall and winter
season A representative OF The HERALD met
President Hurt, of the Railroad Company,
yesterday and asked him If he intended rum
ming night cars again.
''No sir, replied Mr. Hurt, decidedly, ''we
do not intend to do anything OF the kind"
tIt is said fight will be made to compel
you to run the cars" confined the reporter.
fWell, let them make the fight We will be
ready for them, no matter who they are. The
company is determined to resist such at
tempts,' replied President Hurt.
