SLY GAME OF JAY GOULD.
Unscrupulous Means Used to
Sell Wabash Stock.
GRATITUDE TO GRANT.

Greassss InAstIen oG the Valuo o.
shares Ever kuswn In wall
Sarees-The Collapse AZ.
fscteA England Chiefly.
Here il the hitherto unpublished
story of one Of the most remarkable
financial coups ever engineered by Jay
Gould.
About twenty years ago Gould had
in his possession al incense block OF
Wabash shares, and none Of the arts
which he knew how to employ SO skill
fully would induce the public to take
them up. He manipulated the market
artfully. and both the common and pre-
ferred stocks had been advanced to
high quotations. He caused para,
graphs to be inserted in some of the
newspapers calculated to tempt people
to invest, but all to no purpose. The
public fought shy of Wabash, and the
stock still remained on his hands.
The question was how to get rid of
this most unmarketable security. No
body knew better than Gould that it
was almost valueless intrinsically. The
problem, therefore, was to induce the
public to believe that it was worth the
fictitious price at which 1t was quoted,
to obtain for himself that price, and
let the public have the shares.
Jay Gould was, above all things, a
mar of many expedients. He consider.
ed for awhile, and then evolved the
most remarkable scheme to get rid or
the stock at his own figure that the
street rel has known.
THIS IS HOW HE DID 1T.

Could we tell where wa went astrayf
Silent tears through tho coming years,
Darkness for you nnd me,

Fell chill as we sailed a-sea.

Leaving the dark Of the deep behind
For the light Of the other side,
Loosen hands from the ruddor bandsi

On Coarser Goods.

Boston. April 1.-The journal has re-
ceived replies from dozen or more mill
presidents, treasurers and agents to the
queries as to whether the recent action of
the Lawrence Manufacturing company in
going out of the business of manufacture
ing cotton goods is an indication that
the manufacture of cotton goods is going
to decrease in New England; and wheth-
err the Southern competition is too great;
what advantages the South presents over
New England and other similar ques-
tions. The gist of their replies is that
all the coarser goods will eventually have
to be made in the South; that the com
petition of the South on these grades is
too great for New England manufactur
ers, owing to its longer hours of labor,
lower wages, cheaper fuel and cotton
and milder climate; that a too low tariff

Post Office Inspector Sam Brown invited

The exodus was made amid whoops
and yells, and the predictions that the

ty-six delegates and all the contestants
went with them. They organized amid
great disorder and recommended Bradley

a late hour.

CHARGES AGAINST MORTON.
The Secretary Says He Wants Full In
yestigation.

Washington, April 1.-THE Northrup-
Braslan- Goodwin Company, bidders to
supply the Department. of Agriculture
WITH vegetable seeds, have preferred
charges against Secretary Morton in con-
nection with the award The firm bid
S64. 600 for the contract and offered to
make reduction of SO, 200 for the priv
ilege of placing its narue upon the seed
packets. The contract was awarded to
Landreth & Sons of Philadelphia at SIC,
700. The charges were filed at the Depart
ment of Agriculture Tuesday last against
the Secretary and the officers in his de-
partment alleging "collusion, fraud and
false statements" To these charges Sec
rotary Morton has not made specific an
swer.
The Chicago firm say they take excep-
ton to the statements alleged to have
been made by the Secretary i'll conneo-
ton with the awarding of the contract,
but that they have no complaint to make
that the contract was given to another
tirm if the terms were better or more I'D
yantageous to the government They say
they will endeavor to have the matter in
yestigated by Congress if necessary and
that they have retained counsel to pro-
coed against Secretary Morton for max
ing statements which they deem libellous.
Referring to the charges today, Score
tary Morton said: "We shall be only too
glad to have the fullest investigation If
1T is desired, it may be Investigated here
or in Congress OF anywhere else. If nee
essary, articles of impeachment should be
drawn upland the matter tested to the
end! The facts in tbs matter briefly stat
ed, are that the department. last year
bought more seeds of this firm than any
of ths Others Of the grand total of seed
bought by the department last year to rhe
value of $4s, $50, we bought of the North

the value of $40, 683. If we had bought
the seed this spring of the Northrup-
Braslan- Goodwin Company, under pre-
cisely the same contract that we bought
Of Landreth, and their seed under this
contarot proved no better than they sold
US last year, their contract price for it
would be S4S, 600 instead of $64,O0 the
amount which they bid"

The rumor in Madrid last night that
Hon. Ramon @. Williams, American
consul general, in Havana, had been
murdered and mis- body dragged through
the streets, is utterly false.
The farce of holding elections in the is
land CT Cuba will be enacted tomorrow.
The autonomist and Reformist parties
have defied the govrnment and refused to
take part.
The Union constitutional party will
therefore have walkover. This party
is made up of the extreme Spaniards,
who succeeded in forcing the recall of the
humane Martinez CampoS and the sI1 H.
stitution of Weyler as captain general.
They are the people who applauded when
Weyler decreed that Insurgents are ban
dts, and should be treated accordingly.
They constantly urge greater severity in
the enforcement of the DEGREES, and ohafe
at the restraints which the attitude of
the Co gress of the United States has
made necessary. They are numerically
inferior to the other parties. and have
generally sought a union with the Re.
formists on local affairs.
The decision to hold elections WAS
bluff. All the world were expected to
accept elections as proof that no state of
war exists in Cuba.
