SPECULATION DECLARED LEGAL.


A Massachusetts, Judgs Declares Specu
lation on Future Conditions the Life Of
Trade.
Philadelphia C,mms cidl Bulletin.
Judge Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., pre-
siding in tie Supreme Court Of Suffolk
County, Massachusetts,, has rendered a de-
cision which will at -act attention wherever
stock and grain and other exchanges are
medium Of commercial transactions. The
case was one of speculative purchases Of
grain and meat in which Boston aud Chi
cago opera o.s were interested. The loser
in large transactions repudiated his orders
and declined to meet his obligations on
the ground thst spet nj atiy &c iliDgs, in an.
ticipstion of &c line or rise of prices and
without view to actual purchase, were in
violation of State gambling laws and
contrary to public IO,ity, and therefore
could not be eufortel by the courts. The
questions of law being brought to test be-
fore Judge Holmes, the Legality Of such
transactions was upheld, t e Coart hold.
ing thst speculation YVES not only legiti-
mate, but that any ra-iyibad right to I,

of delivery arrived, and thus settled by
mutual adjustment of the two contracts,
or receive upon the contract of purchase
and deliver on contract OF sale and that
there was 10 rpls of law prohibiting such
method of carrying on spect lative opera
tions. Judge Holues also declared that
speculation was not only the lie of COM
merce, bat that almost every event IN
modern times which had contribute to ad-
vance the standard of civilization and in
crease the comfort and welfare of mankind
had been the direct outgrowth Of specula-
tive enterprises, in which daring and reso-
Lutte men had Tisked their fortunes upon
the forecast of the future.
Judge Hclnes hss rendered sound de-

with look of triumph.

Chinston.

Kilsip, with shrug of his shoulders,
''It's down in the book as being bought

Gallon, cautiously. Who was the wit

Again Kilsip smiled triumphantly.

"Moreland?"
Kilsip nodded.
"And 1 suppose" remarked Gallon, in
slightly sarcastic tone, tint is another o

"He may have been an accomplice,
suggested Cation.
"What's the good of all this copjectul

thoroughly tired of II discussion. "Rsa

Cation assented, and all having settle
