DISTRICT SUPPLIES
RECoMMENDATIoNs MADE By
PROPERTY CLERK sIMMs.
Summary Given Of the Expenditures
by Various Departments the
Past Year.

Major X. ID. Stmms, property clerk Of the
District. In his annual report, which was
submitted to the Commissioners yesterday
afternoon. makes number Of recommends
lions.
1t has been stated, as an illustration,
that the Keep commission found that a DIFF
ferent price Is frequently paid for the
same standard article by each one Of the
departments, and the recommendation an
ticipated from this committee Is the estab-
lishment of a central purchasing bureau for
the whole of official Washington
Not quite SO extensive as this, but on the
same general lines, is the following state
ment in Major Simms' report: ut is be-
iieved that 1t is possible to materially re-
duce the size of schedules and the number
Of items therein, especially in stationery,
by the adoption Of certain standard classes
OF articles. With large assortment Of
materials now covered by contracts, certain
departments and offices frequently requi-
sition for articles of the same general kind
as In contract. but of different make
necessitatfng advertisements, securing the
bids and other work incident to open mar
ket purchases. BY cutting the schedules
down to the minimum and requiring all to
use contract articles. especially In station
cry. much additional work would be saved.
and likewise a probable saving In money
would be made"
Purchase Of Fuel.
Another innovation recommended by the
property clerk refers to the purchase Of
fuel for all branches Of the District gov
ernment. including the outlying police sta
lions. schools and fire houses, in the new
fiscal year. This plan contemplates tho
preparation of specifications which VIII per-
NIT dealers to submit alternate hds-one
for the entire fuel supDly for all insftfu.

HAS LITTLE EFFECT.

Advance-Great Northern Preferred
Suffers a Morning Decline.

New York, Aug. 24-Transactions ranging
from 1900 to 10000 shares occurred at the
opening of the stock market today in Reading
Amalgamated Copper and Pennsylvania. Other
stocks We're also bought heavily and the mar
ket showed fractional gains all around. Louis

the metropolitan stocks advanced point.
The market sold OF fractionally with St.
Paul, Union Pacific, Atchiscn, Missouri Pa
ciic, Reading and others yielding below yes
terday's closing. Aggressive buying of the local
traction group and a good rally in the western
quiet ~
Fluctuations were narrow and irregular, with
the most prominent stocks ruling around yester-
days closing. A feature of the dealings
the advance by Union Pacific to 137R and the
rise In the southern group. Illinois Central
gained IN, louisville & Nashville TX and At
lantic Coast Line l. Great Northern preferred
declined 2. Bonds were irregular at noon.
Scarcely any effect was produced on the gen.
eral list by rise in Reading of az to 1919.
There was more buying of that stock at one
time than all the others together, but the gen.
eral demand soon became better.
Bulls Encouraged.
Improved prices prevailed for many stocks III
the afternoon, the extensive purchases Of Read
Ing and Union Pacific encouraging the bulls in
other stocks. Union Pacific touched record fig
ures of 1885. Great Northern preferred re-
covered Its 3-point loss and 8 more besides, and
Delaware & Hudson and Northern Pacific gained
2@272. Wisconsin Central fell off 2 points.

Reading had another buoyant outburst in the
last hour, the price rising rapidly to 1854
compared with 119h, yesterdays closing. Lack
awanna also shot up s. The movement else
where was light, some stocks showing dispo.
sition to run off. In the last few minutes the
selling was very heavy all around, Reading
breaking nearly points from the highest and
st. Paul, Union Pacific, Missouri Pacific and
Amalgalnated Copper selling I to TX under yes
terday's closing Union Pacific lost all its ad-
vance. The close was weak.
