Friend Mark,
Mr Corning gave me report of business of the Express Co. I placed them in my right hand drawer (upper one) I would consult with Corning and fix the [?] prices and tell the secretary to give [?] to the Cos what they will have to pay hereafter. Those Dutch [?] Flat Chinamen have passed on to the graders, yesterday morning about 25 men left and this morning 15 say they want to go below. I shall put the forces at work from the other end as much as possible.
Yours truly
Leland Stanford
