LEEDS ( HARRINGTON
r. r. CO.
First Mortgage 6 per cent Bonds,
DUE JULYI, 1896.

We have bought $633,O00 Maine
Central Consol. as, due 1912, and
offers the holders Of Leeds and Far
mington 6's,. the opportunity to ex-
change the same for the former on
the following favorable terms.
On or before Nov. 10Th, 1895, we
will deliver Maine Central Consol. As
at par, and prepay the interest due
April 1st, 1896, at 4 per cent per an
mum for the unexpired time, receiv-
ing in exchange an equal number of
Leeds and Pennington bonds, allow
ing par and 6 per cent accrued in
terest to date Of exchange.
The above is equivalent to selling
the Leeds & Pennington bonds on a
3 7-S per cent interest basis, and OBJ
tanning the long consolidated As at
par, by using the premium obtained
on the former in purchasing the As.
We beg to call attention to the
fact that these 4 per cent bonds are
now practically first mortgage on
the road, as there will be only ST.
253,30O outstanding when the
Leeds & Pennington are converted
out of a total of $4,000, 1000, to take
the place Of prior lien bonds; in five
years this balance will have been re-
tired and the consolidated mortgage
become first lien.
The saving in the interest charges
in the next few years is approxi-
mately $4,000; this is in addition to
amount saved in 1894 of $4,000,
making total OF nearly 100000 or
2 per cent on the stock; increasing
the present net earnings to over
100000 or 10 per cent. on the capt.
tai; 6 per cent. is now paid, the bal
ance going to surplus und improve
ments.
We recommend the proposed ex-
change at this time, the holders
thereby obtaining long, choice Sc
curity at a moderate cost.
The As not exchanged, as above,
will be offered to the public at an
advanced price.

TheiDuke of Marlboro and his friends
IN England have pretty well filled the
New York custom house with presents
for his bride, and cannot get them out
without paying the duty, wherefore he is
extremely wroth. He thinks as long as
the presents are to be exported along
with his bride the duty ought to be re-
mitted. But the law is memorable and
the only way to get around it is to allow
the presents to remain in bonded ware
house until he gets ready to depart. This
would interfere seriously with the show
however. SO the Duke will have to go
down into his pocket, or what is more
likely, into the Vanderbilt pocket, for
the duty and fork it over to Uncle Sam.

If Secretary Carlisle had ordered the
complete cessation of the coinage of silver
six months ago there would have been a
tremendous storm, but at the present
time his orders to that effect will produce
scarcely ripple. One of the most striking
things of recent politics is the subsistence
of the silver agitation, and nobody quite
knows how to account for it. The
question is scarcely referred to upon the
stump in any state where an election is
pending Even in Kentucky it has
dropped out completely.

1t is not quite clear what is the matter
with Mr.. Rose who recently challenged
for the Americas cup. He has backed
out of his challenge. So much is GER
tain, but the reason is yet to appear.
Rumor says that Dunraven has inspired
him with the idea that it would not BIS
courteous to him to challenge at this
time, though the theory on which this
proceeds is mystery. Perhaps the fact is
that since talking with Dunraven, Rose
has contracted hears failure.
