LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

All the traction securities were in de-
mand at better figures at the meeting to-
day of the stock exchange. with but few
exceptions. Certainly, as far as the
stocks were concerned, the figures for the
bid were higher than were recorded Sat
urday.
The preferred stock of the Washington
Railway and Electric Company sold as
high as S5s. for an odd lot, and the bid
for quotation lot of fifty shares was
S51a. an advance of half a point over the
last bid price. No stock was offered Tor
sale at less than S6l4.
The common stock sold for AIS ana Al.
and the bid was renewed on the latter
level. but without result. The lowest ask
ing price was AIS. The per cent bonds
of the company sold at slight decilne
from the late current figures.

The showing of the business OF the year
made by the Capital Traction Company
at it's recent annual meeting has haa
favorable influence upon the course OF the
securities of the company.
The information that is handed out rel
alive to the business OF the hrst-named
system also points to a year of increased
receipts and profitable handling of them.
1t has been supposed all along that the
companies would make showings of this

large portion of last year this city was

country, the growth of the population

buyer bought all that was to be had at

The latter were in two instances larger
than quotation lot. which is twenty
five shares, that at these figures he
secured 1O4 shares. He also bought two
1D-share lots at 20, but his subsequent
bid at 20 met no response. The lowest
offering was 7Ol2.

ALTON ASKS FOR REnEAR|NG
PETITIONS SUPREME COURT TO
REOPEN REBATE CASE.
Hartman Interested in Effort to
Have 100000 Fine of Lower
Court Set Aside

A petition for rehearing in the cases
of the Chicago and Alton Railway Com
pany and some of its officials against the
United States. in which the court on an
even division recently affirmed a decision
imposing a fine of $4,000 on the COM
pany and the officials, was filed today'in
the Supreme Court of the United States.
The cases involve charge of rebatlng
to certain packers in Kansas City, Kan,
which grew out of the fact that the rail-
road company has made an allowance to
the packing company for the use Of tracks
running into the packing company's plant.
This course was defended by the railroad
company the ground that the tracks
were mere terminal facilities, which they
declared to be conSonant with the policy
pursued by other railroads all over the
country. In the petition for the reopeninS
of the case they dwelt upon the fact that
the officials of the road who granted the
concession did not know that they were
violating law. and they contend that
the fact that the Supreme Court was
evenly divided on the question of guilt or
innocence demonstrates that they could
not have known in advance that their
acts were crimes In fact they add,
they do not now know what the law is
on the questions involved. Having been
fined 100000 for the commission of acts
always believed by them to be innocent.
and which this court has not yet pro-
nounced to be a crime, because. as APP
piled to the affairs of everyday life, they
did not interpret the law correctly when
the Supreme Court of the United States.
applied to the same acts. has failed to
interpret it a. all. the petitioners ask and
earnestly urge the court to reopen the
case.
They represented that the entire ship
ping and transporting interests of the
country are involved In insecurity and
uncertainty on account of the status of
the matter. justice Moody did not par
ticipate in the Supreme Courts decision.
E. II. Hartman is greatly interested in
the case and yesterday visited Washing
ton in connection with the preparation of
the rehearing petition.
