A Personal "Reminiscences OF Wall
Street, Jay Goulo and West
ern Union.

1 am tempted to give a little side In.
cident of my last interview with Jay
Gouldand wrestle with Western Union
in Wall street. I had seen the stock
20 down about eighteen points, and so
bought one hundred. 1t fell five
lower and l took a hundred more.
Five points lower, l took another, and
30 on till 1 was getting alarmed. !
thought Jay Gould under some obligs-
tions to me, or at least a true friend,
and 30 stepped across from my hotel
to see him. He was kind, quiet, and
purry as q kitten, almost playful, and
soon began to point out on his maps
the line of his new Atlantic cable. He
himself opened the subject of tele-
graphs. The occasion was opportune.
I handed him a certificate of purchase
of Western Union and asked him what
to do, as I was already on the edge of
my margin. He looked at mt with a
sweet and innocent surprise, as if say
ing: "Only to think that any man
would touch that worthless Western
Union!"
"I'm so sorry you have bought this
stuff. My telegraph Is the other line,"
he sighed at length.
"Yes, I know. But I bought il
because I thought It cheap, MIR.
Could"
SIT is cheaper now, Mr.. Miller"
"And will 1t be cheaper, Mr.
G5uld2"
swell, we"-looking at his son
shave not a share Of it. 1t ought to
be a great deal cheaper"
"Then l shall sell twice the amount
l hold and hedge. Thank you, and
good night"
And the next morning l did SELL
sell right and ieft-for the whole bot
tom seemed to be failing out of West
ern Union. 1t kept on tumbling,
and by noon l was even. BY l
o'clock l was not only even, but almost
rich. l was a richer man than l had
ever been before.
remained a rich man about thirty
FIVE minutes. The tide began to set
against me. Western Union bounded
up with a rapidity that fairly made me
dizzy, aud by the time the hammer fell
in the stock board l literally had not
car-fare left.
Having plenty Of leisure after that
l wrote down the foregoing converse
tion, and 1 hsvo copied 1t here ex.
sctly. l have not seen MIR. Gould
since. Blu. I find that at the time he
said he had not q share OF Western
Union he had about 200 600 shares,
and was picking it up as fast ss he
could knock 1t down. Honor2
l tell you that where phrenolyeistt
place the bumps of honor there must
be a cavity in the head of Jay Gould.
