ASK FOR AN INQUIRY.
President Requested to Have Public
Printing Office Investigated.

1t was learned today that strong pressure
has been brought to bear on President
Roosevelt to have the administration Of
Public Printer Stillings investigated. It is
said that certain allegations against his
mana gement have been placed in the hands
of senators and representatives, who in
turn have sent the complaints to Oyster
Bay.
It was also stated that a certain member
of Congress, who has been enlisted In the
matter by the bookbinders, has said that
unless the Office Is investigated before the
next session of Congress a congressional in
vestigation will be the result
The friends of Mr.. Stilltngs, who were
seen about this matter today, said they did
not believe there would be an Investigation,
as there is nothing to Investigate"

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

An incident that occurred at the meet
ing today Of the stock exchange might be
looked upon as showing change in the
condition of the market There had been
some trading in the preferred stock OF the
Washington Railway and Electric Company
and the recent high level OF 50 had been
regained and few lots sold.
The bid was then 90, and question
arose as to which broker had the bid on
that level. and It was found that no less
than three put in claim to that right
such an occurrence Is common enough
when the market is lively. but as II has
been for some time past, 1t has been RATHER
lucky to find even one bidder.
After the call the bid for the preferred
was at IS and there being no stock to be
had at that price an advance was made Of
an eighth OF point. not only for quota
ton lot. but for any part of 1850 shares.
The same broker. who is also the principal
oealer In this security. also bid SSA for
block OF LOCO shares At this time the only
onering OF the stock was at $751;
There was some slight trading in the
common stock and In its case the recent
hlgh level OF 10 was regained and held and
after call that continued to be the bid.
There was nothing Of special consequence
brought out ir the call Of tile balance Of
the list
The Increase in the number of brokers at
the meeting today made the exchange be-
gin to look as II busy times had returned.
The principal Significance of this change
thus far, however, lies in the fact that the
summer vacation Is about over and the
brokers' are getting back. They did not
prlhg with them any great amount of busi-
ness as far as appears up to date, but
still there are hopes that feature OF the
market will not be long lacking.
Mr. a. X. Paris was in his place today,
after weeks spent where he had had
chance to deepen the already rudy hue of
his complexion.
Mr.. G. Bowie Chapman was also on hand
looking as happy and prosperous as If he
really liked to get back to work once more.
Another new arrival was Mr.. E. Southland
Parker, who has been engaged in getting
in his crops on his farm in Pennsylvania.
According to writer on financial SUBJ
is already manifest in the New York bank
statement of last week. This shows an
increase in the reserves, in spite of the fact
that there has been a gain in the loans.
This aid to the market situation which has
been afforded by the practice of making
imports Of gold is likely to be supplemented
i'll the near future. it is thought by the
deposits OF governments money in the ma
tional banks. ris
The increase of the funds in the banks of
the country, which will thus be brought
on the local market, owing to the number
of depository banks in this city. With the
enlargement Of the loaning capacity of the
banks that may be looked for If the Treas
ury Department pursues this course it may
be expected that some activity will be i'm
parted to the local market At least the
relief afforded to what is described as more
or less a condition of money stringency
may show itself in better business in local
securities.

Secretary Shaw Keeping q Close
Watch Of Financial Natters.

Although Secretary Shaw Is out Of Wash
ington on a campaign tour, he has been
keeping in close touch with financial at
fairs In New York and elsewhere in the
country. No surprise would be occasioned
any day in the treasury should the Secre-
tary give Instructions for the relief OF the
money market. His method for doing this
Is not yet known, but 1t Is believed that
he will offer to buy the per cent bonds
that mature next year. He has a large
surplus on hand above q necessary work
ing balance and II he can fix q price at
which the bonds will be offered he may add
a large amount OF these bonds to the sink
ing fund.
The money market tn New York Is ex-
pectlng relief of some kind. but exactly
what form It will take no one seems to
know. Secretary Shaw. however, Is de-
termined not to take measures Of relief
until he feels satisfied that the business
world, and not the speculative world, Is
seriously in need Of help.

NEW YORK, September 24.-The stock
market was decidedly heavy durin the fore
noon session today and within that period
there was a large increase In the volume
OF business as compared with Saturdays
and Fridays totals. After midday there
was some falling away In activity. and the
dminuton In that respect was accompanied
by a considerable betterment in respect Of
the markets tone.
While It is probable that the political SIT
nation as brought to mind by the conven-
lions which meet tomorrow may have had
something 10 do with the early weakness
and general irregularity Of the stock mar
ket. it seemed to be the case that in more
serious financial circles the sole influence
was found in the continuing monetary
stringency.
The latter was by no means expressed In
the rates exacted on loans on call, for In
that department money was In free supply
during the greater part of the day. On the
other hand even higher commissions were
exacted on loans for all time periods. and
offerings In that quarter Of the money mar
ket were unusually limited
