carry them through. The sequel to this the
public too plainly see in the developments in
Wall street in the last ten days. Where it will
end no person can tell. But if such uni
versal undermining of all sound financial rules
and regulations does not carry down a large
portion of those engaged in it, then it will be
miracle indeed.
But there are lessons to be learned from
these transactions, come though they may to
many with sad realities. We have shown that
the bitter fruits now being gathered by the
Wall street inanciers have all sprung from
the seed sown under the system of manage
ment of the government finances by Secretary
Chase. That system has been abrogated by
Secretary McCulloch, and, as far as the
government is concerned, is now conducted on
a policy directly the reverse. Now let our
bankers and merchants, who have any self-re-
spect left, and desire to show to the world that
the finances of Wall street are not conducted
by set of defrauders and maniacs, unite to-
gether and put down the Evening Exchange
one of the creatures of the system of Treasury
favoritism-and they will then have gained an
important step towards assisting Secretary
McCulloch in bringing our monetary affairs
back to a sound basis. This is their only hopc
and only salvation. Unless something of tho
kind is done the evil will increase until banks,
bankers, brokers and merchants are involved
in the maelstrom of disaster and ruin.

pers, bankers, brokers and operators should
unite in discountenancing an institution which
has already done so much damage and has so
transformed our honest and orderly business
community into wild, disorganized and crimi-
nal set of Adventures and spectators. The
very name of Wall street is now synonymous with
fraud and defalcation. Old business habits
have been broken up, and the new race of
gamblers who have usurped the lead OF the
street lind the ordinary channels of business
too confined for their desperate transactions.
In former times the word of tinancier was as
good as bis bond. Brokers trusted each other
more implicitly than any other class OF men.
Now every precaution has to be taken to pre-
vent deception, and even this is insufficient to
keep the oldest houses from being swindied.
To such a condition have we come that man
may not trust his brother or his son in the uni
versal greed Of speculation. For the sake OF
one more chance to add to their gains or re-
trieve their losses the operators desert their
families, neglect all social amenities, and spend
their nights in the poisonous atmosphere OF
heated room, screaming and struggling and GEES
ticulating like fiends rather than men. The
deleterious influences of the Evening Exchange
are mainly responsible for this changed state
Of affairs, and we believe that it will be
better for business men, better for business
better for their wives and families, better
for society and better for the city and
country generally, if all respectable per
sons should unite to put down that institution
and restore the stock market to its regular ant
healthful condition. We therefore call upor
all our bankers and brokers who have any self
respect left to join together and suppress thu

The Evening stock Exchange and sOms
OF It's Effects.

Tho Evening stock Exchange and some
OF It's Effects.
Some time ago we excluded from our col
umns the reports of the quotations at the Even
ing Stock Exchange II would have been we'll
for the community had the other papers fol-
lowed our example, and had our reputable
bankers aud brokers dlscountsnanced the even
ing board. This exchange is at once the off
spring Of the reckless spirit Depreciation which
has infected the country, and the cause Of the
continuance of that Juror. II bears precisely
the same relationship to the regular Board Of
Brokers that the concert saloons do to the
theatres. It psnders to the very worst forms
of financial greed, and has done more to de-
moralize our financiers than almost any other
agency. Our Windsors, Jenkinses, Ketchums,
Townsends and Mumfords graduate there In
the feverish scramble for gain which takes
place there every evening all sorts of crimes
are engendered.
During the past four years our Wall street
financiers have been excited almost to madness.
Beginning at the Board of Brokers in the morn
ing, they have whirled through exchange after
exchange until midnight, like pack Of howl
ing dervishes. They were 10 be found at the
first and second sessions of the regular board,
at the first and second sessions Of the open
board, at the continuous session Of the curb
stone board and at the gold room and when
the Evening Exchange was opened they carried
their pale faces, hoarse voices and nervous
frames to that board, and bought and sold, and
sold and bought, until midnight This was not
business; 1t was frenzy. Body and soul were
alike debilitated by this constant and unnatural
excitement Its victims we're as insane AZ the
| opium eaters. AT first they managed to pass a
little time at home with their families, and thus
recupsrated but the Evening Exchange robbed
them of this pleasure, made them strangers to
their wives and children, dragged them into
the worst phases ot dissipation demoralized
their chsrastsrs add their habits, and rendered
them uaabls 10 resist temptation when theiI
losses were heavy and the opportunities were
favorable to crime. The path from The Even
