LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The trading at the meeting today OF
the stock exchange was not OF much
significance and no change was made In
the situation as compared with that OF
yesterday. The bid for Capital Traction
stock was slightly higher than was the
closing bid of yesterday, but there was
no pressure to sell, and so the capacity
Of the market for its reception was not
tested.
The sparring for position on the pre-
ferred stock Of the Washington Railway
Company apparent yesterday was re-
peated today, and as supposed then, was
for the purpose OF receiving some stock
the market. At any rate the sales today
were limited. and 69H was paid for nifty
shares during the call. The bid remained
at 80.
A slightly better bid was made In the
case of the common stock. but there was
no trading.
The stock OF the Bell Telephone Com
pany of Pennsylvania was listed today
In place of the Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company. which Is now merged
with the larger concern.
The authorized stock OF the company
Is $6O,OOO,OO0. of which the present issue
is S31 $50, 100. The par value of the shares
is $l0O and the dividend paid Is . per
cent.
IIC Olu lOI tic StOCh lO0dy was CO, dAO
it was stated that was equivalent to 50
for the stock of the Chesapeake and Poto.
mac Company. 1t was said that 1t sold
in Philadelphia for 9S. The asking price
for the stock today was 9s, but there were
no transactions.
The bid for Lanston, following the ten
dency that has been manifest for several
days past. reached higher levels. Yester-
day a sale of the stock was made at 0A,
and today the bid was started on that
level and then rose to To- The asking
price was half point in advance.
1t is supposed there must be some idea
that the company is going to pay In the
near future the dividend which was due
some weeks ago but was deferred In ac-
cordance with the fashion that was fol-
lowed by number of companies located
outside of this city.
Some trading was done In the stocks
of the fire insurance companies. which
had no special significance outside of the
fact that they had come on the market
for sale. The general condition OF the
business here remains unchanged. but 1t
is thought that some improvement will be
brought about by the formation Of COM
pany association to take the place OF the
special agents organization which exists
here.

PLOT AGAINST THE FLEET.
Admiral Evans and His O4cers Not
Seriously Apprehensive, But
Take Precautions.

RIO JANEIRO, January 21.-There were
further developments yesterday, according
to the local police. in the efforts being
made to unearth the persons responsible
for the alleged plot to destroy part of the

eral arrests have been made.
The band which is supposed to have or
ganized the plot Is made up OF foreigners.
1t presumably is composed OF five Italians.
one~Canadian and two Germans. Johr,
Fender is one o. the Germans.
Three Of the italians have been arrested
here, and 1t is believed that the other
members OF the band have been taken
into custody at Sac Paulo.
The members Of the band counted on the
assistance OF a Spaniard named Rochero.
who has lived in this city for long time.
A year ago. however. this man went In
sane, and since then he has been shut up
In sanitarium at Montevideo.
Neither Admiral Evans or any officers
OF the fleet have been apprehensive of any
anarchist attempt against the ships in this
harbor. although every precaution has
been taken. particularly at night. to pre-
vent any unknown parties coming aboard
or approaching too near the ships
Baron Do Rio Branco. minister OF for
eign affairs, gave a grand dinner last
night at the Monroe Palace to the officers
of the fleet. The decorations were elabo-
rate and beautiful. The members of the
cabinet, many other high federal and
state officials and naval and military o.
ficers were present. Covers were laid for
600 guests. Amid much enthusiasm toasts
were drunk to President Roosevelt and
President Penna. The national airs OF
Brazil and the United States were played
by fine band.
Yesterday was the national day of St
Sebastian. the patron saint of Rio. de ia
metro. and II was observed as a general
holiday by the Brazilians- Bands from
the various warships furnished music In
the public parks. which were thronged by
all classes of the population. The people
were enthusiastic over the presence Of the
Americans.
Last night all the warships were bril-.
liantly lighted with electric lights in honor
of the holiday and as compliment to the
city and the Brazilian navy
There was boat race yesterday be-
tween crews ffom the Illinois and the
Louisiana. which was witnessed by a
large number of spectators afioat and
ashore. The course was 5000 yards in
length. The men from the Illinois proved
the victors.

CENTRAL FEDERAL BANK.
No Endorsement by the President Of
the SUGGESTION.

No Endorsement has been given by Presi-
dent Roosevelt to the suggestion Of a CEN
trail federal bank, according to letter
from Secretary Loeb. in answer to one
sent to the President by Alfred o. Crozier
Of Wilmington. Del, author of THE Mag
net" one of the Wall street exposure"
romances.
The correspondence is as follows:
WILMINGTON, Del.
January II, 1905
Theodore Roosevelt, Washington, D. c.
Dear Sir: In statements published
throughout the country you are definitely
quoted as favoring q central government
bank. It is said you told Mr.. Warner OF
Ohio so. and he SO stated to the reporters
on leaving the White House. Editorial sup
port Of the scheme, based on belief that
you favor the plan. Is widely appearing. !
would be glad to learn that these reports
are untrue, for such a. privately owned
government bank would, believe. be
menace to the business of the country
TT is being pushed chiefly by Wall
street men. and the country believes 1t
is in the interest of Wall street to give
1t control of the power to contract and
lister purposes. His quoting you as for
the bank, added to Mr.. Cortelyous ref
erence to q central bank In his Brooklyn
speech, and the column or two Of argu-
ment for q central government DanK by
the controller of the currency in his an
nual report. will induce the country to
feel that your administration Is behind
the scheme. This will give the opposition
material with which to help discredit the
republican party as favoring Wall street
in the coming election. The people quite
generally believe the panic artificial and
feel sore toward Wall street.
Amy currency legislation which takes
from the federal government control over
the contraction and expansion Of the vol
ume of the emergency proposed will. l
believe, elect Mr.. Bryan President In ex-
change for that dangerous power, which
would enable Wall street any day to
create panic that will scare the $4,000
banks OF the country into calling loans
and boarding more money than the whole
$e5OO0O,OO0 emergency fund. Wall sfree6
will gladly elect Bryan and thus punish
you-the desired effect Of the laws pas
sage.
Every respectfully yours.
ALFRED o. CROZIER.''
The reply from Secretary Loeb was:
January 15. 1908.
''My Dear Mr.. Crozier: Your letter of
the 14th instant has been received, and
the President wishes me to say in reply
that any statement he has to make about
the currency will be made over his own
signature and in authorized fashion. It
would be absurd to pay any heed what
ever In the way OF confirmation or denial
to any other reports.
Very truly yours.
