LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The securities of the two street railroad
systems of the District formed the bulk 81
the trading at todays meeting OF the stock
exchange. The demand was not uniform
in regard to all the bonds and stocks in
Guided I'm this class. but as a rule the buy
ing was better than the selling and the
prices obtained were on a somewhat higher
level
There was a strong buying order for the
bonds Of the Washington Railway Com
pany. and while the sales aggregated some
$2S.oo, yet at the close there were bids of
s4h and of ~ for lots OF $4,000 and s25 900
respectively. In fact. all the bonds that
were for sale at S4k were taken. and yet
the demand was not satisfied. The bonds
were offered at S4A. but the bid remained
at S4A. and the result was that the supply
at this price was cleaned up. At the outset
one bond went for san, but no more were
to be had on that level.
The preferred stock OF the Washington
Railway Company was not In much de-
msnd. and while at first the bid was Tx
and the asking price ~. the prospective
buyers and sellers approached each other
without bringing about any business. At
the close the bid was as and the asking
price ISk. which figures were somewhat
below those of yesterdays quotations.
The interest displayed in the common
STOCK OF the Washington Railway was also
somewhat languid. There were no trans
actions: A1z was the asking price and 2ies
was bid.
The movement in Capital Traction stock
was more marked as far as the advance In
the price Is concerned. Yesterday 1871 was
bid, while today almost at the start the
bid was 134. This was withdrawn and then
at once renewed. and a further advance
made to 134ls. Fffty-five shares in all were
traded in. and one quotation lot of twenty
five shares brought 134h which Is Ihe
record thus far in the upward movement
that has been I'm progress for some days
past. At the close the bid was IsI and the
asking price 1914.
The per cent bonds of the telephone
company sold on higher level as lo4s.
was given for two lots. After the sales the
bonds were still offered on that level. The
bid was 10i5s.
Forty-two was paid for five shares OF the
stock.
One hundred shares Of gas stock were
sold at 90, in four lots and there was more
to be had at that figure, but the best bid
was 59Hs. The asking price was 90.
The trading I'm Lanston was confined to
two lots, and the only 100 shares sold
brought 1917, which is lower level than
the transactions of yesterday. At the close
the stock was offered at IN, while 1875
was bid.
