Wall Street Surges in New York & Erie Shares Amid Rail Expansion
The article notes a dramatic rise in New York & Erie Railroad stock, boosted by a Northwest crop boom and the Atlantic & Great Western connection planned to link St. Louis to New York. It details construction progress, a projected 1200 mile six foot gauge route, and says bulls drive prices through speculative expectations. It also reports Paris-based fears about the Emperor of the French and a policing tactic in Nice involving cellar key seizures.
