FINANCE AND REALTY

Trading on the Washington Stock Ex-
change yesterday was confined almost
exclusively TO the securities Of the local
street railways. Railway common sold
to the extent OF 200 shares at 81. the
highest price reached since the announce
ment of the merger of properties max
ing up this system and that OF the
Washington Virginia lines. The stock
OF the last named company sold 80
shares at so, also the top notch for re-
cent sales. Stock of the Washington
Railway and Electric Company was still
on the floor at 81 L. at the close OF
business. but buyers were not tempted to
advance the price half a point to get it.
At the beginning of the call a few
bonds were found at current prices-Cap-
ital Traction 5s at 10 81 and Railway
As at IS 3-i. Some shares OF Eastern
Light and Fuel were offered at IL and
sold. Mergenthaler figured in the trans
actions to the extent of 25 shares. most
CT which sold at 225. Sales of 100 shares
Of Washington-Virginia preferred stock
went to the record. at so and this with
the sale OF a few shares of Union Trust
made up the business of the day.
VIII Change Size of Bills.
The Secretary of the Treasury has is
sued a formal order for a change in the
style Of paper money now in use in the
United States. Bills of the same de-
nominations will all bear the same por-
trait, and the size OF the bills Will be
reduced to six inches In length by two
and one-half inches in width. The pres
ent size of the paper money is 7.2S by
S-04 inches. The new size will conform
to that Of the new tyN of Philippine
bills. and II is thought will be more
convenient than those of the present
dimensions. 1t is expected that some
dissatisfaction with the new money will
be expressed specially while the old bills
are being supplanted by the new. But
the period while men viii be compelled
to carry bills OF two sizes will be limited,
as the new bills will quickly supplant
the old, when the issue OF the old types
is suspended. Secretary MacVeagh
names July l. 1913. as the date for the
order to go into effect.
