The report grew out of the recent
visit here of attorney general Mercy

nor denied It was sufficiently cred
tied to cause much interest in Southern

Retirement of those bonds would be
an essential part of any plan by the
Southern Pacific to dispose of the Cen

OF course it may be nothing. more
than a coincidence that the rise in
these bonds followed Immediately on
the conferences between the attorney
general and capitalists representing
the Hartman lines. but in any event
the buying was apparently Of a very
good kind.
