A rumor emanates from New York
to the effect that the Colorado Midland

According TO the statement of the
New York Journal, certain banking in
tereSts have been steadily accumulat-
ing bonds and preferred stock of the
Colorado Midland. This is taken to in
dictate that there is in prospect a sale
OF the property to some line which, by
its connections. viii make it more val
liable. Clark Dodge & Co. and r. p.
GoldSchmidt are reported to be the
principal buyers of Midland securities.
Though the buyers DO not tell for whom
they are acting, says the Republican.
all indications are that the real pur-
chasers are holders of stock in the
Denver & Rio Grande line.

sorry that the interstate league is like

board track at the inside of the saucer

to the management of the track at an
early date. The reason assigned by
those who desire the track is that in a

on the dirt at the foot of the track.
