Tho volume of transactions on tho
Philadelphia Exchango during tho brief
two hours of bulne8s today was very
much restricted nnd trading was chiefly
confined to odd lots. Tho tone on tno
whole was steady except for some
further selling ot tho locnl tractions.
Bond dealings wcro v proportionately
larger than In stocks. Union Tractt6n
shares nppeared to be In grcnter supply
than Ilapld Transit today and tho price
declined half a point to 38V4. Offerings
cama from a Walnut street houso which
at ttmeB Is Credited with operating for
Inside Interests. The soiling, however,
was thought rather to ho a reflection of
tho action of Councils In taking cogniz
ance of tho now trannlt plans. Whether
tho Kruger estate held nny great amount
of Uhlon Traction as well as Ptapld
Transit Is not certain. Tho recent soil
ing of the latter Is attributed to this
source. Borne one uppears to bo. willing
to absorb nil that comes out at'U. To
day nctlvlty In tho etoclC. was by no
means so great as on Friday.' The mini
mum limit on Union Traction Is 38.
Tonopah mining was not affected by
tho nnnottneoment that tho company
would exercise Its option on the property
of the Panama Mining Company on Jan
uary 23. Tho mines will bo operated by
tho Eden Mining Company, capitalized at
$1,000,000, par $1, of which Tonopah Min
ing will recclvo 60 per cent, nnd tho Pan
ama company tho remainder. TI1030 who
bought Pannma shares recently on ro
ports that Tondpah would purchaso the
stock Instead of the property, naturally
havo been disappointed. .
Philadelphia City 4s sold at lOOtf. which
augurs well for tho success of the offer
ing of $5,000,000 4s at par over tho counter
between now nnd February 1, Condi
tions havo Improved since the last sale
of city bonds, and the administration
should have no trouble in disposing ot
this block.
Now that exchango rates havo worked
down to such a point that gold Is re
turning ftom Canada to this country,
discussion han arisen as to whether tho
$,23,000,000 sent there, of which Philadel
phia's share was $2,000,000, will bo re
turned or whether the plan to eventually
send $100,000,000 will be allowed to stand
until tho war is over. Tho feeling! among
bankers hero Is that whllo tho money Is
not now needed It should be held In read
iness in case somo unlooked-for happon
ing should bring about another crisis.
