WILD TIMES In MINING SHARES.
San Francisco Enjoys, for Few Brief Hours,
Taste Of the Glories of Former Days.

SAN Francisco. Dec. 2-The excitement
which prevailed to-day in mining shares has not
been equaled since 1873 Old stock specu-
lators who thought the glory of the Golden State
had departed with the new Constitution, braced
up and looked on with amazement at the
crowds that besieged the brokers' Offices. The
fact that Consolidated Virginia had reached
nearly 90 seemed only to whet their appetites
to get more, and when the more prudent ones
told them the tide was about to turn they only
laughed in their faces ard said: mo, it's good
for hundred" When the morning board
opened ODhir was sent to 81, the
highest price reached since the big Sierra
Nevada deal, when it sold for an even hundred.
Gould & Curry. not to be outdone went to 13a,
and then Consolidated Virginia, which closed
last night at 49a, opened at so. At this moment
everything doomed, and futures were to be had
for the asking. The session, however,
had hardly closed when news arrived from
Virginia that the Frankes had gone up for a
million. This was a staggerer and the weak
ones sold off. Hardly had they recored from
the blow when the announcement was made that
H. o. Hooker, one of the stanchest brokers of
Pine street. and son-in-law Of ex-senator Stew
art, of Nevada, had pulled down HE blinds
with liabilities running up into the hundreds
of thousands. Had this latter announcement
been quickly followed by another of equally
grave character, the result would have been a
ruin to many. Fortunately none took place,
and those who were playing for their all were
given few minutes breathing time before the
worst overlook them. Owing to these features
the San Francisco board resolved to hold no
session at 1l:30. but to have the next one at 2
p NJ. This to allow brokers to overhaul
their books and give them chance to
see where they stood. When the sec
ond session opened Consolidated Virginia
dropped to A. The news was quickly commu-
ncated to the street. and for the second time dur
ing the day panic seemed imminent The
agony was rendered still more acute when the
announcement went forth that Greenbaum &
Strauss had suspended for nearly million.
They were correspondents of Frankel of
Virginia. whose failure had been announced in
the morning. When, on top of all this. it was
publicly stated that two other prominent specu-
lators, r. F. Morrow and Maurice Schmidt, had
failed, it was generally believed that the
beginning of the end had come, and
things were by no means improved when it
was announced that Consolidated Virginia. after
rallying point had closed at 40. the lowest
touched during the day The statement that
Morrow and Schmidt en- barrassed Is posi-
lively denied, and, as far as can be learned, the
liabilities Of each have been promptly met

Extent and Duration of the Gold Wave.


WASHINGTON. Dec 2-It is learned at the
Signal Office that the cold wave which is now
passing over the country extends from the upper
lakes to the gulf, and from the Rocky mountains
to the Atlantic. Its point of origin in the United
States was in the Northwest and it has main
tanned southeasterly course. The cold-wave
signals of the Weather Bureau are displayed
throughout the Atlantic, Middle and Gulf States.
At A. M. to day the thermometer in Washing
ton indicated ITO, and it has varied little since
that time. I'm northern Minnesota it was 200
below zero. and further north there was a still
lower range. The isothermal extends
throughout the upper lake regions, then bends
southwark to Milwaukee and Chicago passes
through the counties lying between Keokuk and
Springfield, and westward past Fort Buford. D.
T. The temperature maps of the Signal Office
indicate no change in the weather, and the Off
GERS of the service are of the opinion that the
present condition of things will be maintained
for at least two days.

"samuel of Posen" Sues for Damages.

New YORK. Dec. 2.-It is rumored that papers
have been served on John B. Jeffrey, president
and treasurer of the Jeffery Printing and Pub
fishing Company, of Chicago, by Edmund E.
Price, attorney for the plaintiff, Maurice B.
Curtis, better known as Samuel of Posen" for
false imprisonment. The story is that in 1883
and 1884, M. b. Curtis travelled as the proprietor
and manager of his own play Samuel of Posen. !"
In 1885 he travelled in the same capacity with his
play. Spot Cash." About June 2, of the same
year. he sold out to his brother. r. w. Curtis, as
proprietor and manager, and agreed to take a
stipulated salary from f. w. Curtis, while he
(M B<|Curtis) was to play the leading role in his
old play of Samuel of Posen." The ftm of
Jeffrey & Co. furnished quantity of printing,
for the payment of which NJ. B. Curtis alleges
they resorted to very harsh and unjust measures,
though he alleges, he never, in any way ac-
knowledged himself partner of his brother,
nor was he in any way accountable for the debts
of the management. Out of the transaction the
suit has arisen, and it is expected it will create
great interest in theatrical circles.
