LOCAL FINANCIAL GOSSIP.

Total transactions, three shares OF
stock; amount involved IN these trans
actions. $50
This is the record Of business yester-
day on the Washington stock Exchange
the smallest record for the present year
insignificant as this trading appears. it
is hardly representative OF the interest
taken in the business OF the exchange.
even yesterday There was much bid
ding for stocks and some call for the
public utility bonds In fact. as much
time as usual was spent in going over the
call for securities listed The call for
many issues was as strong as upon days
when much more trading ensusd. and
President Hume worked as hard yester-
day 70 stir UP business as he ever did
The meager results were due alto
geJher 10 the impossibilIty found in buy
inc stocks at the present figures. The
holders want more money. and the buy
inS brokers hold that they should not
pay any more. The attitude IS taken that
stocks and bonds as now quoted are as
high as they should be intrinsically. and
the effort 20 put up prices except upon
some Of the STOCKS most commonly traded
in. does not succeed. The fact IS the
market IS pegged at the prevailing prices.
Brokers won't sell al these prices, and
those who desire 20 buy viii not pay
what the holders wish This Is the situa-
ticu. healthfUI OF otherwise, and i does
not seem possible 10 change IL IN the
regular 0-der OF business
The ars msnt Of the holders Of stock
that they are dirt cheap" al the prevail
Ing figures Is based upon the higher
prices last year and al other times N
the history Of the exchange. Yet the
price OF q security, like that OF a house
and lot is what It viii bring ia the mar
keL That is pretty much the condition
Of things at present Stocks are lower
than they once were but Just now they
viii bring no more. and experience proves
that IL IS largely waste Of tine JC
try and force up prices
some observers Of the situation think
and with some show Of reason, that Il
would be better 70 trade than 70 let the
market sta agnate- as II has done much o.
the time since the hrst Of the year
