1t Is we'll known that the company by action OF
stockholders endorsed the bonds OF the Chicago
and southwestern Railway Company to the extent
Of S5,O00,0OO.
Owing to various causes, prominent among which
may be named the want OF bridge and railroad con-
nectionS at LeavenwOrth, short crops caused by
drought and insects through considerable portion
OF the territory traversed by the road, and the
arrangement of business caused by the Chicago
fire, the earnings OF the line thus far have not
equalled the expectations of the Board.
1t has been found necessary In order to complete,
equip and operate this line, to eXpend large sum-
about five hundred thousand dollars, in excess or
the entire earnings which has been taken from the
surplus earnings of the main line and charged to
account of construction Of Chicago and Southwest
