A Letter from County Commissioner
I. R. Stump
Relative 10 his Position in the Matter Of TIE Rsh
Of Way fer TIE Granisyle Bridge.

The County Court has not
been asked to pay for rights
of way for a bridge at Grants
vile. IC was distinctly stat
ed by the Court last Spring
that the right-of-way must
be had without cost to the
taxpayers OF the county, and
it was further understood
between the members of the
court that if the people of
Grantsville did not pay for
the righU-of-Way | would give
my property t'lat it crossed.
However the assertion made
by a yellow sheet is about as
near the truth as a pin-head,
hair-brained lobster, Just
emerging from his swaddling
clothes, could come to the
truth. This fiddle faced
monkey has built his roost
on equally as rough pie e Of
earth. He is a leech, a suck
er, living off the taxpayers
cfUhis county by ingonuously
devised and shrewdIy drawn
st&tutes, making it obIigato-
ny on the county courU to pay
tribute 10 him.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The bonds in the list of securities in the
stock exchange were in fair demand at
today's meeting of that body and those
who wanted them were willing to pay on
the higher levels of recent days The
some cases or at least was not sufficient
to overcome the slight difference between
the asking price and the bid
The traction securities, which are usually
the most active of any on the list were
not in that class today, although perhaps
they were quite AS much SO as other
classes owing to the fact that the dullness
was general and not specific.
1t was remarked that during the time
these securities were on call a block OF
five hundred shares was offered both in
the case of the Washington railway COM
mon and of the preferred Such a block
of the common could have been had at
AZ, while 93 was asked for that offering OF
the preferred.
The former sold in a quotation lot OF
fifty shares at 42h, and at the close the
42la. thus making but slight changes in
the quotations as compared with those re.
corded yesterday.
An advance was made in the bid 70,
Washington railway per cent bonds
making the bid at SSL, while the Capital
Traction rs sold for 40 and that was still
the bid. The semi-annual interest in both
cases is due June ].
The substitution of a bid of SIS per
share for the stock of the Great Falls and
Old Dominion Company in place of SIC
attracted some attention, but not a great
deal. as the stock has never been in the
active list, and. in fact, is owned mainly
by two men; 1t has not as yet paid q
dividend and it is not known outside of
the management when that interesting
event is likely to occur. as the reports on
the business of the company required by
Congress from all such corporations In
the District only relate to the portion OF
the line that extends from the foot OF
Both street across the Aqueduct bridge
The balance of the line lies in the terri
tory of Virginia and is therefore not
within the Jurisdiction Of Congress.
It is not supposed that the change. in
the hgures has any significance. and as
the security was passed one of the bro
kers observed. dryly, "A little weak to-
day
Lanston was not much Of a trader, and
all the sales made were at 151a. and a
quotation lot of 100 shares was offered at
an eighth of point advance. One OF the
brokers offered to sell 500 shares at Is,
while his bid for such lot was IA. An
other broker said something about his
having a similar lot for sale, which led to
the observation that New York stock ap-
peared to be coming on the local market.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, May 1S.-It would be
more than ordinarily difficult to recite In
due order the circumstances actual anu
sentimental which governed the Irregular
course OF prices in today's stock market.
There was again much talk with regard
10 the absence and prospective departure
from the city of number of prominent
capitalists and operators. and seemingly
those circumstances cut about as large Il
figure i'm the calculations of the average
Speculator as any other.
Such matters as further engagements
of gold for export. money market condf-
tions and the agricultural outlook were
scarcely referred to at all. The volume
of business was upon a reduced scale In
comparison with recent averages of ac-
tivity. although the trading continued to
display the rather wide diversitication of
speculative interest which has been eX
hibited of late.
At the opening of business rather
weak tone prevailed and the tendency of
the market at the time was generally at
trihuted to the fact that American shares
we're heavy >in the London stock market
and further to rather sharp break Ill
Third Avenue railroad stock.
London Generally Lower.
The London stock market was, however,
generally lower and there appeared to
be no particular discrimination against
the American department, which was, in
fact, extremely dull. Operations here for
foreign account were upon a 2ery small
scale.
As noted above the further rise in
wheat appeared to attract little atten-
tion stock marketwise, the more so, in
1rrnlN hn nd
nounced in the May option. lie days
actual advices with regard to progress
of the crops were not especially signiti-
cant.
Considered as whole. the days stock
market could scarcely be defined as going
either weak or strong, and, in fact, mega
tive and irregular tendencies prevailed
throughout the day. Chesapeake and
and Reading showed the usual wide fiuc
tuations and comparative degree of ac-
tivity.
Steel Comparatively Firm.
Broadly speaking. however the railway
share list exhibited a sagging tendency
and the same was true of the Industrial
and miscellaneous shares. The United
States Steel stocks were, however, COM
paratvely firm.
No particular significance was attached
TO the insolvency of a stock exchange
firm, which was announced after the
