IN THE WORLD OF FINANCE
TRADING
IN AMERICAN BANK
Sales of Thirty Shares Made
at Odd Figures in an
Odd Manner.

The miscellaneous character Of the
trading at the session of the Washing
ton Stock Exchange today was relieved
by some dealings in American Bank
stock. which. owing to the various ru-
mOTs circulated with regard 10 future
connections with the bank indicated
very strongly an attempt 70 dIsIOdge
stock that was probably in view and
needed some encouragement TO complete
a decision. The buying and selling was
all made at the very unusual figure Of
a small fraction attached to d good
round sum. that is 20 say at 175M. which
in bank stocks rarely occurs as small
fractions are generally ignored more
particularly as the commission amounts
to a half point. However. it is pre.ably
considered that an appearance Of sell
ing may induce real stock to come on
the market and in that way ill a good
sized order which is known 70 exist for
= block that VIII carry with II the cleo
tiOn Of a prominent newspaper capital
ist IN rhe directorate.
The only other feature Of the trading
was the better tone on Lanston. which
advanced 30 lfa on sales OF POO shares
Copper stocks were neglected. the only
sale or Mitchell being lot of 100 on a
siNty-day option. On the New York
curb yesterday the stock sold down 10

year The renewed announcement that
the capital will be increased from So

Chain Gang Labor
VIII Not Be Used
To Clean Up Weeds

Convict labor is not likely. L. figure
In the District Commissioners crusade
against the rank weeds now growing
on vacant lots in many parts Jf the
city. the determination of whiCh is in
Cluded in the present campaign 70 Sc
cure improved sanitary conditions in the
city. After hearing objections against
the feasibility OF the convict labor plan
made by Engineer Commissioner Biddle
and Superintendent Zinkhan. Of the
Washington Asylum. Commissioner
West 10 whom the employment OF the
chain gang 10 clean up the weeds had
at first appealed. decided today 10 drOD
IL entirely out of future cslculat tons
in the line Of the present movement.
Superintendent Zinkhan pointed out
that the employment of the chain gang
in this way would tend 10 their de
mOTaiiZati0n because the men would be
inclined 10 grow mutinous If subjected
while appearing ia their striped suits 10
the probable Tidicule Of small boys.
Putting aside this plan the Commis-
sioHeTs now have under Considera tion a
proposition 10 call on the emergency
fund in order 10 carry out the provisions
of the auti-weed Law. In the absence Of
4 specific appropriation for the weed
removal this appears 20 them as being
the only feasible plan. It is estimated
that the expense OF CE,tirg down, and
removing weeds from VacaLt lots would
be all OF 500.

one Of the oldest grain commission
houses in the city, ordered its trades
closed out today on the board of trade.
The first has cleared through other
houses for some time. The firm OF +.
Seckei q Co, established in 1852. was
recognized as one of the largest com
mission houses in the city during the
lifetime Of the man whose name ID

taken up by his son. Albert. Upon the
latter's death three years ago. a cor
DOratiOn was formed with Frank d.
Badger as principal stOcknoIder.
James Carruthers, a small operator.
also gave notice TO have mis- trades
closed out. The amount involved ln m
failure was small but following close
upon the heels of similar action by +
SeciSel & Co. It gave rise 10 some little
excitement on the floor. Steadily declin,
ing prices for wheat, brokers declared
had worked a hardship 20 many Of the
smaller concerns. nscessitating heavy
calls for margins.
