These bonds all pay both principal and Interest in New

road. They will all be sold in a short time and in few
months the road will be finished when we have no doubt
the same result will follow with FiyE-TwESrr and
CENTRAL PACIFIC Bonds. The Sinking Fund Of the
Chesapeake and Ohio must go into effect within one
year after the completion Of the road.
