LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The atmosphere OF the Inauguration
period. which is largely that of holi-
day character. was quite apparent in the
mood and the attitude Of the members
of the Stock Exchange when they came
together today for the usual session.
Perhaps that condition was not due en-
tirely to the interest which the members
take In that event, although in addition to
the feeling about such a matter which Is
common to all citizens of the country.
good many are actively identified with
the work of the citizens inauguration
committee The chairman of the commit
tee, Mr.. Stellwagen. is a member OF the
exchange, and so is Mr.. Norment, the
treasurer while Mr.. Bell. Mr.. Hibbs, Mr..
Green and Mr.. Parker are members of the
committee, and in other ways the mem

national event.
