 Vanderbilt. Gouldt Drew, Addison ara Leonard Jerome, Woerishoffer and others who in past years have ruled i the stock market. Yet, when leader tship was needed, conditions produced the man. But Flower t.-fers from all i his predec cesscrs in one essential par lticular. He is the representative Of syndicate Of spsculat3rs.
