Bank Clearings and Washington Railway Notes
The day after a holiday the Stock Exchange showed light activity with little commission business and muted interest. Capital Traction 5s rose from 107 1 2 to 109 with a favorable outlook. Washington Railway and Electric issues saw mixed trading. The Gas market paused and some brokers showed selling pressure as a tactic to feign weakness. Metropolitan Railroad certificates and other dues are payable today, with the Washington Railway and Electric voting trust expiring, shifting control to stockholders while officers may stay until next January. Allan L. McDermott is president and Gen. George H. Harries vice president. William Loeb Jr. is rumored to be next president if local interests gain control.
