LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The trading at todays meeting of the
stock exchange was without feature. The
only particular in which it attracted at
tention was the course of Washington
railway common stock and of Washing
ton gas stock. The strong buying devel-
oped in both of these securities Saturday
accounted in large measure for the Gu
riosity manifested as to what would hap
pen today.
The railway common stock, which met
with such buying orders that the supply
at 81 was exhausted, and the seller adj
vanced the price fractionally, was Of
fered today on about the same level as
Saturdays close, but after a couple of
lots had been taken at S1& and Sly there
was no further demand above SO, al
though the seller offered the stock down
to S1h.
After the call. however, couple of
twenty-five-share lots sold for sly and
S1&.
The buyer of gas stock Saturday was
again on the market but the stock was
lacking and In consequence the price adj
vanced so that 1t sold a half point bet
ter then the best price paid Saturday.
Today, however. the stock was dealt in
less the dividend of $1.2O per share, and
while Saturday it sold with the dividend
UP to S6A, today it reached Sc without
the dividend. Only seventy-five shares
changed hands.

CHICAGO.

CHICAGO. April 15-It was a wilder
day In the wheat pit today than even
during the worst of the crop scare STAN
pede last week. Fluctuations today
were more violent and punished not mere
ly one side, but both.
Excitement started with the first rap of
the gong and kept at boiling point, while
transactions ran into an aggregate of
of crop damage gave fire to spectators
who believed that the market was going
higher. despite the ten cents advance
while others thought differently
the market at the outset varied from
hc lower to 1Ac higher, as compared
with Saturday night. The sharpest price
changes were shown in the May option
That month started at Ito to Ill, an
upward jump of n to IA, touched l111a,
dropped to 1071s and then whizzad back
to 1.1Ol4. Meanwhile July twirled In be-
wiIdering fashion from 1.O5ls to LOT, snap
ping from &c below to more than lie
above the final figures of the previous
session. A spasm of weakness seized the
corn market at the beginning, but the
market soon wheeled into line with the
advancing tendency, which at the mo-
ment promised to rule in wheat. July
opened Sake to Sale down, at 7Sc to
ISL. declined to TIA and then rallied to
1871.
Free unloading carried oats lower, but
the offerings were promptly gobbled up
started 1saA to 3sahs cheaper at 54A to
55. and then turned upward to 55lsa55A
Activity and strength prevailed in the
provision trade. Realizing of profits by
longs. however. checked the rise. which
was due to firmness at the yards and to
dear corn. Initial sales ran from satur-
days level to TIC higher. with Septem-
Der delivery, 1914 for pork, 10.6211s for
lard and 1O.4211 for ribs.

day; Little Temperature Changes.
For the District of Columbia, overcast
weather. probably showers tonight or
Tuesday; not much change in tempera-
ture; moderate southerly winds.
There has been no change in the flood
situation in the lower Mississippi valley.
The river continues to rise below Vicks-
burg, and to fall at and above that point.
The western disturbance has advanced
to the upper lake region with greatly
diminished intensity and another dis
turbance is apparently forming over the
Rio Grande valley. During the last
twenty-four hours these disturbances
have caused showers in the gulf and At
lantic states. the Ohio and upper Missis-
sippi valleys, and the lake region, and
rains and SHOWS in the northern plains
states and the northern Rocky mountain
region.
Temperatures continue above the sea-
sonal average in practically all districts
east of the Mississippi river and in the
west gulf states, and are unseasonably
low over the plains states and the Rocky
mountain and plateau regions.
The indications are that the weather
will continue unsettled with showers over
the greater part of the country east of
the Mississippi river within the next thir-
ty-six hours.
The temperature will rise tonight in the
north Atlantic states, and it will fall to-
night and Tuesday in the region of the
great lakes and the Ohio and lower Mis-
sissippi valleys.
The winds along the New England coast
will be moderate to brisk southerly; on
the middle Atlantic coast moderate south
erly; on the south Atlantic and east gulf
coasts moderate southeast and south.
