"WE -A.EE SELLING THE 
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad 
FIRST MORTGAGE SIX PER CENT. GOLD BONDS, 
at the rate of 94 and accrued interest. They are in denomination® of $1,000, $500 and $100, regis¬ 
tered, or with coupons attached; interest payable May and November in United States gold coin; 
principal payable in 1899, ulso in gold coin. Bonds delivered by Express, charges paid. 
These Bonds, beside being the formal obligations of a well-established, substantial and thor¬ 
oughly responsible corporation, comprising among its Officers and directors some of the most 
experienced and trusted cnplmlist* ami buxines* uien of the country, are also secured by n mort¬ 
gage lien upon the whole great railroad Hue, equipment, property and franchises, whose cost and 
value will not bo less than thirty millions, and which la destined, at an early day, to have a pro¬ 
ductive value of nearly double this sum. 
The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad extends from the deep-water navigation of the Chesapeake 
Bay to the head of reliable inland navigation on the Ohio River, a distance of 427 miles, of which 
nearly three-fourths is already In operation, and the remainder under such rapid construction 
that it will be completed during the ensuing summer. 
Till* line furnishes a short mid reinnrlmbly cony route for travel and transportation between 
the Grout West and the Atlantic coast, and as such will share, on advantageous terms, to a large 
extent, in the vast, volume of through business from the West which now taxes all existing means 
of transit. By means of connecting UtiCs. new under construction In Ohio and Kentucky, It will 
afford the shortest and cheapest mule T,'P ~ : oltiti Cincinnati, Louisville, St. Louis, Chicago, Nash¬ 
ville, Memphis and the Far West and the North Atlantic shipping; and it must at once take rank, 
therefore, us one of the Great Trunk Roads of the country for through transportation. 
Besides these advantages it traverses the Richest and Moat Extensive Coul Deposits in 
the country, in its route through the Kanawha Valery, and crosses, in its course, some of the 
most Important and valuable deposit* of Iron Ore known on the Continent. The coal, of which 
there are throe varieties, will furnish an enormous and profitable truffle; and there is no doubt 
that a large manufacturing act ivity will soon be developed along the line. 
$1,000 bond costs (with the back Interest) to-day $959 56. 
$500 bond costs (with the back interest) to-day $479 78. 
$100 bond costs (with the buck interest) to-day $95 96. 
We buy and sell Government and Central Pacotc Bonds, and receive them in exchange 
for Chesapeake and Ohio Bonds at their current prices. Descriptive pamphlets, with full 
information, furnished on application. 
We receive deposits and allow interest at the rate of four per cent, on balances; make collec¬ 
tions in all parts of the country; issue certificates of deposit, and do a general banking business.
