CAuaur IN THEIR Own TRAP.-With-
in . few days considerable amusement
has been created among the "bulls"
and "btars" Of the stock market, by
develop nents regarding certain would
be shrewd operators" The San Fran
cisco Bulletin Of yesterday, thus tells
the good story: "A leading Washoe
stock was supposed by the officers Of
the company to be pretty we'll under
their own own manipulation, and they
were therefore much surprised by dis
covering that certain outsiders were
more on the inside than they them
selves were. They discovered 1t in
this way The outsiders In question
would be very active In buying, and
the President here would get a tele-
gram the next day containing favora-
Bic news. The outsiders would be very
active In selling. and the President
would the following day receive I'M
favorable news. Something was radi-
cally wrong. The sacred right of the
President and Directors to manipulate
the Company's stock was violated.
The stockholders were being swindled
and the President and Trustees were
not reaping the benefit. This must be
stopped. 1t was evident that some EN-
ploye Of the Telegraph Company was
tapping the cypher dispatches from
the superintendent In Virginia to the
President here. Having satisfied him
self where the leak was, the President
laid a trap. He Instructed the superin-
fendent BY letter to send him q bogus
dispatch In CIPHER, saying that the
lead had been struck rich. and direct
ing to buy. As before. the outsiders
here received the dispatch before the
insiders got 1t. The former went on
the market to buy, and In their eager,
ness they ran the market up about %
Der cent. The Insiders sold them all
they would take. The next day,
when the buyers figured up their profit
and loss account, they found the bal ,
ance to be some 800, 900 on the loss
side, while the worthy President and
his colleagues were just so much ahead.
The leak was traced to an employee in
the Virginia City Office, and the ell
terprlsing translator OF cypher igno-
miniously kicked out Of the office, a
wiser, II not a better young man."
