was enough buying to cause a rally of

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The trading at today's meeting Of the
Stock Exchange was dull. 1t was linn
tied in amount and what was done was
about on the level Of preceding days.
There was some demand for bonds,
which came in evidence when the gas
5's were reached in the call. The ask
ing price. however. was only separated
from the bid by an eighth Of a point.
which gives some notion, OF the state of
the market.
Some of the stock of the Capital
Traction Company was wanted, espe-
cially in broken lots. and some trans
actions in the latter were recorded. the
figures being somewhat better than for
quotation lots At the close the bid
price for the stock showed an advance
Of three-eighths Of a point over the
bid Saturday.
The bid for the common stock Of the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company rose to 34h, which was the
asking price Saturday while the
stock was for sale at 35. An advance
was also made in the bid for the pre-
ferred stock Of a quarter Of q point,
but there was no trading.
Something was done In gas stock
at 1875 and 1914, but in a very limited
way.
