The successful and rapid negotiation. of nearly
ee-fourths of the FIFTEEN MILLION LOAN
OF TIE CHESAPEAKE AMP OHIO RAILROAD
COMPANY, and the energetic prosecution Of the
work of extension and preparation Of the Road for
an extensive mineral, agricultural and through
traffic, have placed the financial affairs and re
sources Of the Company upon such basis that we
are directed to advance the price for future sales G
the Bonds. explained in the following letter of
Mr.. HUNTINGTON, President of the Company:

In compliance with the foregoing instructions the
price of the Bonds, from this date, until further
orders, will be 90 and accrued interest.
The scarcity of, and demand for, really
Desirable six per cent Gold BON
for sound and permanent investments, is evinced by
the facts that

These bonds all nay both principal and interest in
New York City, in U. S. gold coin, and are equally
safe for inv estnent.
The reason why FIvE-TwFSTY BONDS are SO high

ing amount lie being rapidly decreased by purchases
by the Government from their surplus revenues.
The reason why we think CENTRAL PACIFIC BONDS
