LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

y couple of ten-share lots of the stock
of the American National Bank sold to-
day at the meeting of the stock ex-
change at 1SJ and 1876 and the bid at the
close was 1SJ the difference between the
figures and those quoted yesterday. which
were lGO bid and ia asked is due to
the announcement which was made af-
ter the close of business yesterday of the
purchase by the interests in control of
the bank of a large block of stock. The
price paid is said to have been 1856 per
share.
1t is stated on behalf of the new owners
of this stock that this addition to their
holdings is to be used in the development
of the institution, and In this connection
the current gossip attributes the purpose
with another institution in this city.
Owing to the fact that Mr.. Lynn. the
president Of the bank, and other members
of the board OF directors are also con-
nected with the management of the
United States Trust Company it has
come about mainly that these two have
been credited with having some merging
plan in contemplation. This idea is not
borne out by those who are interested
in the two concerns
AS has been the case for some days
past. the market for the stock Of the
United States Trust Company today was
quite active and on an advancing scale or
prices. The stock sold on a range Of
from 9S7s to 80 and at the close of the
buying the bid was 80 and the asking
price y9h.
The bid yesterday was 9S1a and the ask
ing price was 3S1s. 1t is, however, MAIN
tanned by those who are interested in the
trust company that the management Of
Bradley Davidson, the president, and the
other officers and directors the business
of the company is such as to fully war
rant the current prices for the stock, and
even better figures.
There Is no confirmation that any nego
tiations looking to a closer union of in
terests than those which exist at pres
ent are under way. 1t is admitted that
possibly something may be done in the
merging line of the American with one of
the national banks of the city, but even
that is still in a nebulous condition, it
is claimed.
From the city of Frederick, in Mary
land, where the plan of building an cleo
trio line from that place to Gettysburg,
ing the northern end OF the road from
this city to the Great Falls, comes the
statement that an option for the control
of the road has been sold.
In this connection. it Is said, such an
option was secured in the interests Of
the Great Falls road. 1t was said, how
ever, today in q source that is close to
the owners of the latter property, that
while it was possible they might at some
time show an interest in such an UNDER
taking, yet at the same time no definite
steps have as yet been taken to finance
the building of such line.

AMERICANS HEAVY IN LONDON

DECLINE NOT NOTEWORTHY

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK December 12.-This morn
inS's stock market furnished no break to
long series Of heavy and reactionary
Saturday markets" since the election. At
the same time there were enough excep-
lions to the general drift of prices to
impart an irregular appearance to the
dealings as a whole and few of the de-
clines scored attained noteworthy proper
tionS.
The weakest spot in the whole market
was American Smelling and. perhaps for
family reasons National Lead also re-
coded quite sharply. The depression in
silver bullion and the rather unfavorable
state of trade conditions were advanced
sufficient reason for the exceptional
weakness in American Smelling. The
same explanation attached to the decline
in Amalgamated Copper. The United
states Steel shares were also heavy. al
though not notably so, and material de-
clines were suffered by Westinghouse
Electric and Western Union.
The local traction issues were all eX-
ceptionally firm in the early part Of the
day, but that department of the market
was later affected by the course Of prices
elsewhere.
Many Lost Ground.
In the railway list New York Central
showed noteworthy degree of resistance
to the general course of prices and other
comparatively firm features were Colo
RADIO Southern and Erie. All the usually
active and leading issues in that depart
ment as well as most Of the specialtieS
lost more or less ground, however, on the
days transactions.
American stocks were heavy in the Lon
don market for no expressed reason. but
operations here for foreign account show
ed small results on balance.
There was little news of Importance
overnight aside from the weekly returns
of the mercan tile agencies. and these were
somewhat conflicting in their general i'm
port.
Notwithstand the somewhat frmer
tendencies of the money market scant
interest appeared to be taken in the out
look for the weekly bank statement.
