The week in the stock market opened
handsomely yesterday with fine spurt
in prices in many parts of the list, but
especially in one group cf -a:!!--..ay securi-
ties. the grangers and Pacifics, and in one
group of industrials, the outside steel
stocks. And, although there was heavy
selling at times later in the session, it is
safe to say that the business, as a whole
was fairly satisfactory to the friends Of
and workers for higher prices The
stocks that made the most important ad-
yanceS early in the session held them very
wei until the close. and two or three new
favorites were taken up before the close.
Business was larger. and the interest OF
ne public greater than at any time last

The important purchase of Capital
Traction yesterday, taken in connection
with the recent gossip regarding an
alleged purchaser in the field for the con-
troll of the company, caused considerable
comment in the street The broker that
made the purchase is said to have Of
fered the same price-1d21A-for 500 shares
more than he secured. The story that
was told in the street was that a New
York party wishes to buy control of the
system and that a meeting with i'm
portant holders Of the stock is to be
held within the next two or three days
to discuss terms.
The times., 1901-06-18

People that are supposed to be intimate
with the affairs of the Capital Traction
make the statement that a deal for the
sale of the control at 125 was almost com
pleted year ago, both parties to the
deaf being agreeable to that price. The
deal fell through, 1t is said, over a ques-
tion of commissions which the bidders
were not willing to pay. 1t is not known
If the party now supposed to be in the
field is the same one or not, though the
street seems to favor the idea of a new
syndicate entirely. The present talk is
of 159 as the deal price" This gossip
seems to be based on the idea that the
holders would not sell now for 125 When
the other deal failed a prominent Capital
Traction stockholder is said to have re-
marked with reference to it: 'The sale
did not go through. The next time
anyone wants to buy the Capital Traction
he will have to bid more than 125 for
it," Nothing is known as to the price
the supposed bidders are willing to pay.
and it is probable that $3.50 a share is the
suggestion of a seller rather than a
buyer up to the present time at least.

A prom inent banker is said to have
bought an option on considerable block
of the proposed new Washington Trac-
tion bonds at 20. The experts figure that
if the plan of the reorganization commit
tee is to go through the bonds will be
worth considerably more than that
price, though, of course. this will depend
much on the terms.

The chief business on the local Stock
Exchange yesterday was the sale of 300
shares of Capital Traction stock at 1G2Ia,

LOCAL BUSINESS MATTERS.
Money Conditions Discussed by q
Prominent Banker

e. Southard Parker, President Metro
politan National Bank: Money is easy
locally, though rates are trihe higher
on collateral loans than during the win
ter and spring. Depending on the character
of the security, the time, and to a GER
tain extent on the credit of the borrower,
the rate varies from AZ to and even 6
per cent. At times during the winter it
was possible to borrow money on call
on securities listed on the local exchange
for per cent, but no loans have been
made at this rate recently, 80 far as
know.
Loans on real estate range about the
same, though perhaps a little easier than
collateral loans. On first-claSS realty
and for yearly periods borrowers are able
TO secure 4 per cent rate. Builders
loans are higher, of course-5 and per
cent. The real estate outlook is better
than it has been for some time. A num-
Der OF important purchases have been
made recently, and in many cases the new
owners intend to build important resi-
dences or blocks, or make other improve
mentS. The recent purchases of + Street
property are examples. So also the den
for an entire square in Columbia Heights,
which is to be improved by 176 residences
during the coming year.
Loans to builders are considered an
excellent investment by many conserva-
tive people. The rates obtained are gen.
orally higher than for straight loans, and
the builder does not borrow usually eX-
cept as his buildings progress. so that
the lender is always protected"
