Galesburg Bonds Sold To Take Up Floating Debt
Galesburg issued fifty thousand dollars of five per cent bonds at a sale aided by a two percent commission to the negotiating firm. The move will retire all floating indebtedness and allow a fresh start. Capt Hall, the Old Man in the Skiff, is in Davenport after a Chicago trip, boasting new clothes and fourteen dollars cash from a twenty dollar bill. He recalled a Mexico winter with sixty five cents on returning and no debts. The New York Journal of Commerce noted higher money in circulation on Oct 1 compared to 1892, while monetary expansion meets political caution.
