LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

Outside of some demand for odd lots of
the common and preferred stocks OF the
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany, and ata slight fractional level
below the asking price for a quotation
lot, there was not much interest shown
in these securities at the meeting or the
stock exchange today. In addition to sew
eral odd lots couple Of quotation lots of
the common stock sold, and also small
lot of Capital Traction stock.
Great caution was shown In the bid Tor
Mergenthaler today, and those onerlng
the stock were equally on the alert, SO
that during the cali the only transaction
was the sale of one share at 2o', whlch
was the high point reached yesterday Tor
a quotation lot of ten shares AT that
time there was no stock offered at less
than 30 After call however. ten shares
sold for 209. points better than the best
price paid thus far in the recovery from
the recent low level
couple of odd lots also went for 20S
and 20S12. Great confidence Is now ex-
pressed by those interested in this Sc
curity of an early return to the level
reached just after the announcement OF
the close of the negotiations for the pur-
chase of the English company, which was
40.
Mr. Charles c. Glover is in Atlantic
CITY 1Or a stay Oh ten Gays. lie Is dCCOlII-
panied by Mrs. Glover. and is getting
needed rest after a rather busy season.
Attention was attracted by a deed or
trust that was placed on record yesterday
to secure a good-sized loan on a dwelling.
The rate of interest for the three-year
period OF the trust was the feature that
caused comment in financial circles. as
It was for 412 per cent. The rate here, in
recent months at least. is. and has been.
per cent. and it is a subject of specula-
ton TO whether or not this means a
beginning of a period of cheaper money.
While ordinarily this would be mat
ter that would be of interest only to real
estate men. such q change would also
have an influence upon the rate for col
lateral and other loans. 1t is recognized,
however very generally. that owing to
the large accumulation Of money and the
comparatively slight demand, that the
course will inevitably be toward lower
rates. or else there is likely to be an in
fiux of outside money.
At a meeting OF the board of directors
OF the National Savings and Trust Com
pany the position of second vice presi-
dent, held by Mr.. Woodbury. Blair. was
made a salaried office. Mr.. Blair stating
that he would give even more time to the
company than he had and also that he
would act as trust officer until suitable
person could be found for that position.
