tain and st. Louis and San Francisco
railroads and stocks of ST. Louis banks.

sod unless listed, and to withdraw
any Of them the committee must give
notice on any previous call. The
committee may also require all
stocks TO be registered in a bank

overissue of stock certificates. To list

information as to the officers, etc, of
