LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

A better bid was made today than was
the case yesterday at the meeting OF
the Stock Exchange for Lanston, and
after the call a couple of f1fty-share lots
sold for IA, a level which has not been
reached by this stock since December.
1906. The bid for the stock during the
call was 1884 while yesterday the figure
was 1871. The asking price yesterday
was 1914. and today 14A was asked.
In the period since and including the
year 1904 the highest point reached was
17't. which was recorded in June. 1905.
If all the securities followed the course
OF Lanston. the one pursued for several
days now. the condition OF the local mar
ket would be quite similar to that which
Is noted In the general market, where
the tendency is toward higher levels. 1t
may be said the market here did not
experience the slump which took place
In the other fields of stock activity, and
in consequence there Is no lost ground
to make up.
The stock market in this city. when
there Is no business, has the habit Of
standing still. and that is what It Is doing
mainly at present. Today however, there
was slight recession in figures in the
case of the preferred stock of the Wash
and also in Gas stock
Odo lots OF the former sold for 9O1. and
the stock In quotation lots of fifty shares
was to be had at the same price
one tWenty-five-share lot of Gas stock
sold for 74A, which was the selling price
OF small quantity at the session yester-
day. The bid for the stock today did
not rise above "a. and there was but little
enort made to trade in this security, or in
any other on the list
