LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

Both Merganthaler and Lanston sold at
todays meeting of the stock exchange on
higher level than that of previous days
In both instances the sales were rather
limited. In the case of Mergenthaler the
purchase of fifty shares on range of
from 214A TO 214la was sufficient to clean
up the market of stock at those figures,
so that at the close the bid was 214l2, and
the asking price an eighth of point
higher. Yesterday the stock was offered
at the bid price of today's close, while
the bid was then 213.
The point reached today is the best at
tanned during the recent rise, which
started about the time the information
as to the character of the showing of the
business done by the company began to
be known.
With Lanston the supply also appeared
to be limited, and after some 400 shares
had been sold at 1914 there was no more
TO be had at that price, although the bio
for 1t was In quotation lots, or larger
lots. at the option of the seller. But the
seller at the price did not appear, which
might be taken to indicate a belief in bet
ter prices.
After the call 1OO-share lot sold fol
1879. and an option was offered at 2Ois
but the latter did not seem to interest any
one.
Gas stock TO the extent Of twenty-five
shares sold for $751;, and the seller had an
other lot for which he was willing to take
6S, but no one was willing to give more
than CTS.
Only two transactions were recorded
In the bank and trust company list, but
more attention was paid to it than is
customary, and evidences of small buy
ing orders scattered through the list
were apparent. The figures were
changed in some instances and moved
higher up, but in other respects this
section OF the call was as uneventful
as is usually the case.
The railways were practically neg
lected. Capital Traction stock sold in
odd lots and to the extent of twenty
five shares for 1877, but the bid did not
change much from the low levels where
it has been for some time past, in
striking contrast to the asking price
which is some two or three points
above ii.

Objectionable Features.

The speakers did not ask the Commits
sioners to change the provisions regard
ing sanitary and cleanly conditions. They
asked, first, the elimination of the clause
of the regulations prohibiting the keeping
Of fowls within twenty-five feet of in
habited dwellings in the fire limits or
within fifty feet of inhabited dwellings
outside the FIRE limits.
This restriction was regarded as the
special cause of most of the complaint
against the new regulation and the spe-
ciai provision which is decreasing the
number of chicken keepers and driving
residents outside Of the District.
I'VE arc willing you should require the
keeping of chickens under sanitary con-
ditionS." they told the Commissioners,
but we do not regard the distance pro-
vision essential for safeguarding public
health.
Health Officer Woodward was then
asked by the Commissioners if the dis
lance fixed by the regulations was nee
essary for sanitary reasons.
Not at ALL he replied THE only
consideration in that connection is one of
noise
1.-The noise is not exactly insanitary"
remarked Engineer Commissioner Judson
with a smile.

Black Picture Painted.

Each painted a black picture of the flu
tire of the District if the enforcement of
the present regulations not amended, is
continued.
Dr. Waters declared the high class of
the Washington annual poultry show was
threatened by the regulations. because
many breeders of fancy hens and roosters
cannot continue in business under re-
strictions imposed by the regulations. Mr..
Bolgiano pointed to the decrease in the
supply of eggs and falling off in the
trade of dealers in chicken feed because
the regulations bar many from continu-
ing to keep fowls.
Mr.. Booth brought stories of removals
of families out of the District because of
inability TO keep chickens or of annoy
ance caused by enforcement of the re-
strictions recently imposed by the Com
missioners. picturing vacant houses in
plenty. Mr. Gaddess made plea for
keepers of chickens, pointing out the de-
crease i'll the number of chicken keepers
because of the enforcement of the regu-

Appeal Made for Rooster.

The second appeal was in behalf of the
rooster. The regulations now provide
that inside the fire limits mo roosters
are to be kept on the premises without
the consent of ma jority of the house
holders in that square or block
The plea was for abolition of this
clause and the substitution of another
providing:
NO roosters are to be kept on the
premises where ma jority OF house
holders in that square or block sign a
petition setting forth that such rooster is
a nuisance"
Until rooster has been found to be a
nuisance by the neishbors, it was con-
tended residents should be allowed to

GRAIN MARKETS.

CHICAGO, October 27.-Quiet marked
early trading in the wheat market here
today: Demand by shorts for the Decem-
Der delivery was urgent but offerings
were meager. An advance of Fad to Id
at Liverpool and material gains at the
northwestern markets were the principal
factors. Prices opened q to 5saslc higher.
with December at LOS to 1864 The
range early in the day was between
1.H7sa1 % and LOSS.
The bulge in wheat caused a steady tone
in the corn market early in the session.
