News of Merger Denial and
Creation of Commission
I Is Sent Broadcast.

Financiers of the country today were
Informed that the proposed merger of
Washington public service corporate
has been denied. and a public utilities
commission for the District ordered by
Congress. Wall Street dispatches to
brokers throughout the country carried
a special from Washington to this eff
feet.
The first effect of the law was seen
today on Washington Stock Exchange,
when the low bid of SJI4 for Washing
ton Railway common was seized upon
and fifty shares sold at that price. The
bid was then lowered to s3fs. The pre-
ferred also sold at S. 1t is known
thatthe Washington Railway and Elcc-
trio Company is facing new financing
problems that would have easily been
solved by resort to the Washington
Utilities Company This is now denied
by Congress. and the company will
have to consult a public utilities COM
mission in its efforts to solve the hnan-
cling problem which the directors last
week explained to stockholders.
Another effect of the operation OF the
law, as it appeared to a broker inter-
ested in gas securities. will be that the
consolidation of the two gas companies
will be prohibited. Whether the pubic
utilities commission will find way to
bring them together remains to be seen
Trading today was limited and price
changes were few. Federal Ndtionai
Bank quotations were marked up again
to l3s to 140, and 'the bid for United
States Trust was dropped points to
l35.
There will be no session of the local
stock exchange tomorrow. No action
was taken to declare a holiday. as II
is a legal one in the District.
The Fourth of March is legal holi-
day only in the District of Columbia.
Ali banks will be closed tomorrow.
The March number of the digest OF
trade conditions, issued monthly bv the
Commercial National Bank, is out to-
day. According to the digest the aver
age price of a selected list of high grade
bonds stands at nearly three points be-
low a year ago and the average of a
selected list of stocks is Just five points
below the figures Of year ago.

NEWS-MINER BECOMES DEMO
 CRATIC.

THE Fairbanks News-Miner' thu
 oldest daily paper in the Alaski
 Interior, has announced that i will be a Democratic newspaper here after. In announcing it's change O political faith, the News-Miner says:
 Every stockholder in the Tan ana Publishing company is an old Democrat. While during the last administration this paper support ed the administration of the Re publicans in the hope that it would be for the best interests of the country, no such reason now ex- ists, and in the future The News Miner will be a Democratic news paper, upholding the administra- tion and working for the cause to the best of it's ability. We shall recognize no internal strife in the party in Alaska, but will travel with the administration and sup port it's organization"
 With the change of the News-MineI all three papers at Fairbanks-the Daily Times and Daily News Miner and the Weekly Citizen-are now sup porting the principles and policies oi the Democratic party.

BRYAN'S EXPERT PRAISE OF WILL
 SON.

THAT was high praise that Bryan
 bestowed upon President Will
 son in his Waterville speech. Some very able, widely experienced, highly educated and patriotic men have gone into the White House to ad- minister the laws of the United States. Bat Bryan has been a careful and glut- tOnOus student of American history, and he knows President Wilson, what he is accomplishing and what he is en- deayoring to accomplish better. prob ably, than any other man n the coun- try. When he says that Wilson is the best prepared man that ever became President of this country, the judg- men must be given the weight due the conclusion of an expert of high order.
 It is unnecessary to say that Bryan did not give this testimonial to the President lightly. He has not been accustomed to bestowing fiatery, and he
 
 principles and policies to give praise where it might come back to plague him in his fight for the regeneration of American politics. Further than that. Wilson's record in public life has overcome an adverse opinion of him that was a fixture in Bryan's mind less than three years ago. His observa- tiOns and contact with Wilson as Gov ernOr. Presidential candidate and Pres ident have convinced him that the present President is entitled to high CT place among the men that have been at the head of the Nation than Jefferson, Jackson and Lincoln, not withstanding that no man has given these three statsmen greater praise than has Bryan; and all this in spite of the fact that a little more than two years ago Bryan said that Wilson is not available for the Democratic Pres idential nomination."
 While there are many who are not yet prepared to go as far as Bryan in praise of Wilson the number that re- gard him as the best equipped man that ever entered the Presidency is growing fast among those that follow closely the dOings at Washington, and there are few that will not agree that he is going about the work of solving the issue of his day in a manner un- equalled by any President since the Civil War.
