BUT WAITINGOpinion Divided on Effect of

Possible Break withGermany.

SPECIALTIES LEAD DAYAmerican LAcomotive and Can Head

Quiet Trading-List. as Whole.Should Izmprpve.

New York. Feb. 23.-Although special-ties led the market today, there was no

sign of great uneasiness In any depart-ment. Professional traders expect themarket to break If relations with Ger-many are suspended, but the bankingfraternity is of the opinion that such amove will help the market. Thereforethe market rested easy throughout theday's session.Of the stocks that led the quiet market

American Locomotive and Can were themost active. They had as partners suchshares as United States Realty, CornProducts and Crucible. Marine sharesalso were active, but declined, and de-cined on good news, for the company isto put several steamers released fromwar service into the Atlantic trade.Weakness of grain suggested that the

American people might be getting readyfor the annual bet on the crops. Withscientiho farming the danger of cropfailure grows less every year, until nowit Is hardly worth considering. There-fore Wall Street Is very much disposedto begin. even before crops are planted.to discount the big harvest. That Is themeaning of low-priced grain now.

- Market Should Improve.Taking the market as a whole, it is in

good condition, and. according to all therules of procedure that have proved val-uable In the past, the market should Im-prove.Wall Street made up its mind today

that the decision in the American Candissolution case would be made public,end acted accordingly. As the companyis reliably reported to be making in theneighborhood of 50 per cent on the com-mon stock, the street naturally expectssome activity when this decision is madenublIc. It does not seem reasonable thata stock earning 50 per cent would be letso around the present level of 64.

Gotham Experiments andProves Civic Electric Plant

Is Costly Idea.NEWS OF LOCAL MARKETSWashingtop Railway Stocks Easier.

Graphophone Company ReportsSurplus Fund of $854.310.75.

New York recently has furnished astriking lesson for the considerationof proponents of municipal ownershipof public utilities. Following investi-gations covering more than a year, con-ducted by the ranking experts of theEast on municipal economy, it is foundthat the city can purchase electricityand steam for power, lighting, andheating purposes more cheaply than itcan manufacture it. even without con-sidering capital represented in the mu-nicipal plant.The experiment was tried out in

1913 by supplying five of the princi-pal, municipal buildings with electric-ity and steam from the plant in oneof them. The total cost to the cityfor one year was $39.311."1. and theinvestigators reported that the sameservice could have been purchased fromthe Edison Company at a guaranteedsaving of at least 84.000. The experi-ment cost in the neighborhood of $20,-004, of which amount the Edison Com-pany paid one-half. The test was con-ducted under the direction of the Bu-reau of Municipal Resarch, whose sug-gestions, incidentally, as to improve-ments in Washington, always have fal-len on attentive ears in the MunicipalBuilding here.

In view of the announced intentionof two of the Commissioners here tobring about municipal ownership ofpublic utilities, the New York experi-ent is of unsual interest, not only toshareholders in the local concerns, butto all taxpayers as well. Those di-recting the test were desirous of mak-ing a record; perhaps it would not beunfair to say that they hoped theexperiment would prove the practica-bility of municipal ownership. At anyrate, the experiment was conductedunder the most favorable conditions.constantly watched over by experts,and without any of the political loose-ness and inefficiency which might rea-sonably be expected to result from alarge and established municipally-owned system. No doubt this reportwill be of peculiar interest to, and richin information, for the Board of Com-missioners of the District of Colum-bia.

Will Have Chais Ike Seaste's.The arm chair used in the United

States Senate has been taken as themodel for brokers' chairs with whicnthe new quarters of the WashingtonStock Exchange are to be furnished.Broker, are now dropping into theoffces of W. B.

In addition torthesechairs, the new quarters will have sev-eral huge leather sofas, also finished ingreen, and a number of small mahog-any chairs outside the rail for spec-tators.

Ralway Stocks Easter,Little interest was shown in the reg-

ular call at yesterday's s-sslon of thelocal stock exchange. Washington Rail-way stocks were easier. with the pre-ferred selling down 3-4 of a point to81.
