CAPITAL TH ACTION COMPANY". Stock Will Be Llhted on the New YotTc Exchange. The stock of the Qapital Traction Com pany is about to be listed on the New York stock exchange. President Dunfop has isbued a notice to this effect, wich has been sent to all of the stockholders and put up in various local brokers' offices- The notice recites that "upon re quest of many of the stockholders the board of directors has ordered the capi tal stock of the company to belistcdupon the New York stock exchange." Di rections for this move are as follows: "All stockholders are requested to for ward to the United States Mortgage und Trust Company, 59 Cedar street. New York city, their present stock certificates for exchange for new ones. The cer tificates which are now held Mionld be aaJgued by the owner to the person in whose name the new certificates are to be Isbued, and in the event of the assignment being to some other than the person nhuse name now appears In the certificate, the signature upon the back of the certificate should be acknowledged before a notary The name of the attorney for the transfer to be left blank in all cases " The notice is signed "G. T Dunlop, presi dent, Washington, . C .April 20, 1397." Various surmises as to the meaning of the listing of the stock in New York are being made. The idea is, it is said, that the move will give the company a larger market, and that probably the stock will go up with the larger demand.
