UNUSUAL ACTIVITY
ON CHANGE TODAY

Stocks we're unusually active on the
Washington Stock Exchange today, the
weak tone of New York affecting local
conditions to a noticeable extent. There
was an unusually large amount of
both buying and selling during today's
session. and in nearly every instance,
prices remained firm.
The bond list was steady, and a gen.
eral demand resulted. The per cent
bonds of the Capital Traction COM
pany, $500, sold at 1O7k, at which fg-
ure the market closed. City and Sub
urban SIS brought loe and lolS. the
sales. Potomac Consolidated first SIS
brought los.
But little interest was shown in Cap
ital Traction. the l01 figure Of the last
several days continuing to prevail.
Three small blocks during the regular
session and q shares on the after call
at l1 constituted the days sales OF
that stock. Railway preferred ut ssh
was steady.

days asked price. shades having been
bought by one broker at "a.

RECORDS ARE BROKEN
IN CLEANUP WEEK

Washington's third annual clean
city campaign ended today.
Results show it to have been a decided
SUCCESS.
With less dirt TO deal with. more was
| removed during the week than in either
OF the previous crusades.
Hundreds of tons of refuse. gathered
from cellar and garnet, back yard and
vacant lot, have been carted TO the
city dumps The exact number will not
be known until the reports Of the con-
tractors are received next week. Last
year $500 tons OF refuse were removed
during city cleaning week. The num-
Der this year. according TO DR.. Arthur
L. Murray. secretary OF the committee,
will largely exca>d last years record.
Cooperation Brings Success
The success of the campaign" said
W. II. Richardson, chairman. today
lis due not Only to the members OF
, the clean city committee, but to the
citizens associations the pupils Of
the public schools. the Boy Scouts,
and the thousands OF hOuseholders
who have Iabored so zeaiously in the
publ!cs interest.
Without the hearty cooperation of
these agencies.t the work Of the COM
mittee would have amounted to little.
Housekeepers are realizing more and
more every year that the 'clean-city
campaign is conducted primarily in
their interests. and each year they are
contributing more to its success. The
thanks of the committee are due also
TO the Street Clea ming. Health, and Po-
lice Departments, all Of which have rem
dered splendid service.
The following statement VAS issued by
DR.. Arthur l.. Murray. secretary OF tn"
committee, today:
"A trip over a considerable portion
Of the city late yesterday afternoon
showed that the city. taken as whole.
was unusually clean. Sections which
are notable for the .Insightly conditions
OF their lots. in many instances, pre-
scented appearances Of particular ttdl-
ness. There still remain. however,
places where refuse has not been re-
moved. These neglected accumulat!ons
will, as they come TO the attention OF
tho clean city committee. be corrected
as carly AS possible.
Will Continue Work
The civic pride of occupants OF
premises and owners of lots which have
not been cleaned will be appealed to
by special individual communications.
II these appeals do not have the de-
sired effect of causing the removal Cf
tho refuse, the committee will feel
called upto 10 invoke the aid of the
law
Attention was directed by Dr. Murray
to the health regulations requiring that
premises and vacant lots be kept in
clean and wholesome condition. Viola
tons are punishable by a fine.
The next meeting of the committee
will be held next week, when reports of
the secretary and subcommittee will be
received
The Washington times., 1914-04-18

and almost always have received the
warm support of employers.
Another phase of Mrs. Asher's>
work Is the training Of personal
workers. Her meetings include the
hospitals, where some of the most
sturdy Bible classes have been or
ganized among nurses. who cannot
leave to attend outside meetings.
Mr.. Peacock also attends minis
tiers" meetings. and he acts as a sort
of clearing house for the business Of
the revival as II touches the work
of churches. He also works among
the lodges, all of which in Scranton
have attended the meetings in dele
cations. The Masons marched, $500
strong. to one meeting. Special res
ervations are made for these bodies
of lodge men. as well as delegations
that attend from factories. These
are the only reservations OF any sort
made at the Sunday meetings.
All Other Seats Free.
All other seats are free to the first
conner, and the banker. the lawyer.
the city official must come early and
take his chances. as well as the
miner. the factory worker, or the
day laborer.
One Of the important features of
Sundays meetings is the music. Ho-
mer Rodeheaver conducts the choir.
In Scranton il numbered 1000 voices.
But long before his coming a local
conductor is engaged, and the choir
is trained in singing militant, stir
ring gospel hymns.
B. D. Ackley. whose work as sec
rotary already has been described.
plays the piano.
Work of handling mail during a
Sunday campaign is no small task.
Though 1t is impossible for Mr.. Sum
day to give personal attention to the
letters that pour in, running from
200 to 700 a day, Mr.. Ackley reads
all OF them.
Many Of these are begging letters.
About one-third fall in that class.
II one day in Scranton the requests
ranged from the solicitation for 500
by ere woman. who said she
wanted that amount to cure her
self of the opium habit to a re-
quest for SIS from a professed trail
hitter to buy a new set OF false
teeth.
To Mr.. Rodeheaver, in addition to
