LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The principal event in local financial
circles today was the announcement by
the directors of the Commercial National
Bank of the purchase of a controlling in
terest In the Union Savings Bank-the
two institutions to be conducted here
after under one directorate and one corps
OF officers. although otherwise operated
as separate banks. At some time In the
near future probably there will be q
physical amalgamation Of the two banks.
with the basis Of stock value fixed by a
careful comparison of the book values OF
the stock OF each institution, and q still
closer relationship established by the re-
moVal OF the wall which now separates
Bank on 14th street and the adjoining
home of the Commercial National.
The effect Of the consolidation an
.nouncement was reflected on the
Washington Stock Exchange at the
noon meeting today. when the quota
tons on Commercial National jumped
from 1913 bid and 21O asked--the prices
which obtained at the close last Fri
day-to 1877 bid and 220 asked. The
only quotation on Union Savings Fri
day was a bid Of 246. with no stock
offered, and today there were no quota
tons in either column. although 1t is
understood that the banks will con-
tinue to be operated for some time to
come as separate institutions.
Business was conspicuous principally
by its absence at the session Of the local
Stock Exchange today. only six trades
being recorded. In the bond list $1,000
Potomac Consolidated IS sold at 997s and
81 100 Capital Traction IS at 1851 Stock
sales included two shares Of Capital

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
BERLIN. August Il. 1913
The first installment OF the annual re-
port of the German social democratic
party, which is to be presented to the
congress at Jena In September. appears
this morning.
The report complains that during the
mast wear the organization Of the party
has made hardly any progress. and that
the increase in membership has never
before been so insignificant The report
speaks of the state Of affairs as almost
bordering on stagnation. The increase
in membership amounts only to l2.74S.

teen districts a diminution OF member
shp is reported.
More significant still is the decrease In
the number Of subscribers to the party
press. Even the Vorwaerts' circulation
il 5000 less than last year.
Several non-socialist journals rejoice
exceedingly at the apparent check to
Socialism, IN Germany which these
fienres reveal They forset. however.
that the socialists are a party Of over
AHrl 0OO voters, with Ill members o. the
re;chstag. and that were the other

might also have to report stagnatton and
lack of political interest IN their ranks.

Although dealers on the stock exchange
were largely occupied with the mining
carry-over trading was fairly active and
cheerful. Mexican issues hardened and
Paris bought Diamond and Copper
shares. while a squirt in Chartered shares

American securities opened quiet and
steady and during the forenoon advanced

REoRGAN1zEs FRENCH ORDER.
Decree of Minister Of Agriculture
Aims to Prevent Abuses.
Correspondence Of The Star.

xVEtiSu correspondence VI AUC otoA.
PARIS. August IL. 1913.
The minister Of agriculture has issued
a decree reorganiing the order of agri-
cultural merit. The anxiety of every
Frenchman to possess an order that
will give him the right to wear a piece
of colored ribbon in his buttonhole is
proverbial, and the result has been that
under a republican government orders
have been so widely distributed that
they have los, much Of their prestige.
This is specially the case with the
green ribbon for agricultural merit,
familiarly known as the ''poireau.' AS
ITS name betokens. its purpose was to
reward services rendered to agricul-
ture. the national industry Of France:
but, In point of fact, politicians have
distributed II broadcast among their
clients In recognition of political serv-
ices that have not the remotest connect
ton with agriculture.
The new decree reduces the animal
number Of the various grades OF this
order to be distributed each year to
about twO-fifths of those distributed
last year. and dominates a council of
the order Of agricultural merit. all the
members Of which have some connec-
'tion with agriculture. with the object
OF preventing abuses in tho bestowal Of
the order.
