D. Rahner, gen- eral passenger agent. As on the two previous excur- sions at this rate, the destinations to which such bargain tickets may be purchased include all local points, all points throughout the southeast, and in addition, such cities as Chicago, Cleveland, De- troit. New York, Philadelphia and Washington. The reduction in travel expense offered by these excursions is ex- ceptional the round-trip fare being about one-half of the regular one- way rate. The next selling dates, July ist, 2nd and 3rd, should prove convenient for those plan- ning a trip over the “4th’, or leaving on their summer vacation. The return limit is longer than usual for such a drastic reduction, allowing full seven days at destina- tions. The tickets carry the usual baggage allowance and stopover privileges. Pullman rates are al- so reduced for this event on the basis of one ‘and onethalf the reg-j ular charge for space. As Chicago is included in the destinations this excursion offers a very opportune time for visiting Negotiable coupon bonds _ shall state the amount of existing in- debtedness to be compromised, re- funded or extended, the aggregate amount of bonds to be _ issued therefor, their’ numbers and de- nominations, the date of maturity, the rate of interest they shall bear and the place or places of payment of principal and interest.
