Pacihc Mail and Harlem have been weak at times.
There Is truth In the report that the Milwaukee
st. Paul Railway has been leased to the Peunsy1vania
Railroad Company, nor is It true that negotiations
hare been opened with that end in view. Thu story
eones from Chicago and tho officers OF the ST. Paul
h.re have had tcleyphic inquiries In regard to the
subject directed to them.
TonaED cEn1u1cA7as.
In regard to recent forgeres of share certificates Of
the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne Chicago Railroad Con-
pauy, it has been definitely ascertained That tho
certificates are genuine Impressions, and this ia a-
ascertain whether tho certificates we5 noetracted from
their printing house or from Tie Government stamp
Company. While certificates in all particulars AZ
far as ongraYng Is concerned, the came nn other
certificates Of this kind Issued by tho Company there
Is difference In the internal stamp which fs
should be impressed Ut the Government Office, In
thu genuine certificates this stamp contains tho head Of
Franklin where IT is 2o cent Htamp and the head Of
Washington where it is Q cent stamp In
the colnterteita the 25 cent stump beurs tho
head of Washington, instead Of that Of
Franklin, which scens to have been device Of the
forgers to evade the penalties for United
States stamps. It ia alsb believed by the eItrayets
and many Others that the Wabash coridcatea gen.
une eScept tho Government stamp, ~ IN the of
the Fort Wayne. THO Wabash Company are having
new certificates engraved.
