LOCAL FINANCIAL GOSSIP.

From 40 to III is a rise In price that
attracted great deal of attention yes
terday to National Metropolitan. Bank
stock on the local exchange. The cause
Of it, undoubtedly. is the sale of about
loo shares of the stock by S. w. Wood
ward and z. Southard Parker to a small
local syndicate, represented by William
A Mearns. AS this transaction puts an
end to all talk on mergers and as the
syndicate has also put in an enticing
offer for the 1,50o shares or so held by
the estate of the late Francis Riggs, the
rise is quite, natural, though of unusual
dimensions.
Washington and Virginia Railway held
the spotlight for activity again yester-
day, and the stock came out in blocks
of twenty-five, showing an increase Of
a point on the common and a point and
a half on the preferred Common sold
at 30a and 81. preferred at 6S. This fol-
lowed the report at the annual meeting
yesterday that the company has a sur
