A Queer Corporation.
New York Tribune.


 When Frank Stockton wrote "The Great War Syndicateo about . com- pany of capitalists who would carry on war for any country for a consider ation, 1t was thought to be a wild flight of fancy. But here is a com- pany formed h Illinois for the pnr- pose of conducting executions, which will employ competent executioners, work of criminals in any part of the United States, furnish shrouds, cofiins, etc., and hang or electrify, according to the wishes of its customers. Many a stock company has been started for less laudable purposes. There would be none of the horrible butcheries which now and then disgrace our civilization If this corporation should be successfully established. It may seem a ghastly source of dividends, but that is matter Of taste with the stockholders.

THE EASTERN WAY.
Information Fished Up in New York
by the Real Estate Men.
POINTS FOR TIE LOCAL EXCHANGE.
The Bulls Sustain Another Waterloo Defeat
at the Petroleum Mart.
GAS STILL LEADS THE STOCK MARKET

One of the committee of real estate men
who went to New York on a tour Of dis
covery in the interest of the proposed Pitts
burg Exchange, in an interview yesterday
afternoon. gave an interesting account of the
manner in which realty is handled in the
metropolis. Some of the ideas thus acquired
will be utilized in the organization and
management of the Pittsburg institution.
The New York Real Estate Exchange was
organized five years ago. The first step toward
putting the institution in working order was
the purchase of handsome, substantial build
Ing on Pearl street at a cost of S500,000. The
rental from this property brings revenue into
the Golfers of the Exchange of $4,000 q year.
The par value of the stock is slO0; it now COM
mands premium of 25 per cent. Shares are
sold to whoever wants them. Ten shares
entitle the holder to the privileges of the floor.
Stock brokers are admitted to membership by
paying yearly assessment of $50, but they
have no voice in the management of tho Ex-
change. This is done to increase the revenue,
All the real estate business transacted in
New York passes through the Exchange, even
sheriff sales. which are called "knock-
downs" This is great saving of time and
trouble to the courts There is full corps of
officers, from president down, and general
manager, who supervises the entire business of
the Exchange. There are various committees,
to each of which is assigned special duty The
most important of these is the Arbitration
Committee, to which is referred all disputes
between buyers and sellers.
The most thorough system prevails in all
parts of the Exchange, and all transactions
are governed by strictly business principles.
Stool pigeons, or bogus bidders, are rigidly ex-
cluded. There is no pretense of making sales
every offer, and bids must be in good faith.
Owners of property bidding it in must pay the
commission the same as others. This is a pro-
lection to both buyer and seller. The result of
all this is to concentrate the real estate busi-
ness under one roof, instead of having i: scat
tered all over the city, as it is here under the
present system.
The gentlemen of the committee are highly
pleased with the workings of the New York
institution, but are still seekers after knowl-
edge. They understand that Chicago and
Denver have made Improvements upon the
metropolitan system, and some of them will
visit those cities and investigate before recon-
mending plan for adoption here. They will
report to meeting OF real estate men to-day
the results of their observations, so far as they
have gone.

bountiful supply for the capacity of our mar.
kets, and as consequence finds hard roads to
travel. The tone of markets all along the line
of cereals is weak, with the situation in favor of
buyers. Jobbers of flour are reluctant to make
concessions on quotations below, but unless
there is change for the better soon. they will
be compelled to concede. The drift of wheat
continues downward at grain centers "A Gus
