couple Of transactions In the stock
of the telephone company were mace
at the meeting today of the stock exchange
They were on the high level which has
been reached within the past few weeks,
and the prices recorded for the three lots
Of twenty-five shares each were est and
CO. The demand seemed to have been sup
piled with this amount of stock, and there
was but little disposition manifesed to get
any more, and no further bid was made
for time. Finally, however, one was put
In at COZ, but there was no stock offered
for sale.
After call ten shares sold for 60. 1t Is
likely that on account OF the growth OF the
business here some changes will be made
In the personnel OF the officers Of the COM
pany. The president. Mr.. u. n. Bethel, as
Is well known, Is president of nine telephone
companies and vice president OF the New
York company, all operating In the region
from the ST Lawrence river to the poto-
mac. 1t Is a crescent-shaped territory,
stretching from Washington to Syracuse
Three years ago he put the scent rate Tor
public pay stations in operation here ana
effect in the Philadelphia region. Last year
he put It into operation in the suburban
district Of New York. AS soon as the
plant In New York city and Brooklyn can
be made ready 1t will go into effect In those
places.
Whatever Is done here will be in line with
relieving the president of some OF the de-
tails of the business, and 1t is probable the
Office of vice president will be created, ana
1t is likely that the general manager, MT.
F. H. Bethel, who Is a brother OF the pres
ident will be appointed to I'LL such an or
flee when created.
Practically nothing was done in the Sc
curities of the street railway companies
The same level of prices was maintained as
was held yesterday but there was no dis
position to trade.
There is some conjecture as to the char
acter of the financial showing which Will De
made by the annual report OF the WastnnR-
ton Railway and Electric Company which
is to be submitted to Congress about the
first of next month. From what fs known
of the statements that have thus far been
made for the year it is the expectation that
the summaries will make good showing,
There is an idea that the net earnings
will be equal to an amount that would pay
a dividend of q per cent upon the common
stock. Not that there is any immediate
prospect of declaring such dividend, but
such earnings would justify the belief that
is held by some that the stock Is worth %,
which would be equivalent to a per cent
valuation. However, in the absence OF the
official figures It Is recognized that esti-
mates are only guesses more or less rea-
sonable.
The bonds of the Potomac Electric Light
Company also sold today on the level that
