THE MAD SCRAMBLE FOR
WEALTH

On Thursday of last week the New
York Stock Exchange was i'm a paude-
monium and the speculation fever wa.
on everybody. Some clever msuipuia-
ton was being done, and the lambs
We're cut out for slaughter, yet they
came up to the block, bleating play
fully as if in a gambol on the green.
One stock had the cal-Northern
Paclfc-and the rest Of the market
went to pieces No one could tell
what to do and some stocks declined
fifty points. Many fortunes We're won
and lost in the days fearful battle.
Northern Pacific was in corner, and
the price about noon went up from $50
to 81 600 per share with closing price
of 1925. The par value of this stock is
500 per share. People were mad and
in their delirium threw money away.
Many a family had the bread taken
from its mouth by the parents bad
luck, and no one can ever know how
much was lost
Since the present speculative boom
began, says press dispatch, seven ofli-
cials of as many national banks have
gone wrong aud been found out.
While details a, to what all the de-
faulting officials did with the money
they took have not been received by the
Comptroller Of the Currency, it is be-
Heved that in every case speculation iii
some form was the cause of downfall.
10 four cases the banks have been
obliged to suspend.
With the exception Of one case, all
the defalcations came to light while the
bull boom in stocks was on, and when
many of the spectators, who thought
there was no limit to the advance in
prices, were making money. 1t is too
early for returns from the crash Of last
week, but it will not surprise officials
lere if some bank officers and employ
ees were found to have been caught on
he wrong side of the market with /
money which they had taken from the /
banks, expecting 10 be able to replace
t after they had made fortunes for
themselves.

Weekly Crop Bulletin Of the
Maryland Weather Bureau.

The most fattering reports con-
tinue to be received respecting
the present condition and future
prospects of wheat. rye and bar,
ley. There are practically no ex-
ceptionS to the general favorable
outlook. unless it is that in some
places the wheat is of too rank
growth, on account of which it is
feared that the grain will be
easily tlattened down if disturbed
by high winds or local storms.
The color is still very healthy
and the growth quite vigorous,
and the probability OF damage by
fly grows more ana more remote
as the season advances. Rapid
progress was made in blowing for
corn during he early part of the
week, and planting was a general
accompaniment to other field
work. although in Garrett and
Allegany counties no corn has
yet been put in. In western
ashington county a few fields
have been planted, and in eastern
Washington about two.thirds of
the crops is in the ground in many
localities. Generally throughout
the northern central districts fair
progress has been made in break
ing ground and planting. and
some OF the earl Y corn is TWO in
ches in height; owing to the late.
ness OF the season. however, the
advance has been very irregular.
and a general statement cannot
we'll be made. Throughout the
southern counties the work in
corn fields is one. half to three
tourths completed. and in few
localities the entire crop has been
planted. The weather of the
week has been very satisfactory
for growth, but no; altogether
favorable for termination on &C.

Says China Can Easily Pay

ST. PETERSBURG, May 13.-
The ViedemoSti publishes an ar
ticle from the pen of Prince Ouch.
tourmsky, who has just returned
from China, the substance of
which is that China can easily
pay the sum demanded by the
powers from her by means of in
creased taxation on exports and
imports. So great is the volume
of trade, he says, that taxation
might be doubled or trebled
without commerce being affected.

DEPOT LoITERERs WARNED.

\ warning notice comes from the
Companys officials to loitererS VINO
hang about the city station of the
Delaware and Hudson company until
their presence becomes an intolerable
nuisance.
The warning is that these offenders
will be vigorously dealt with II they
persist by their uninvited presence in
annoying passengers and interfering
with the employees i'm the discharge of
their duties.
The company has posted in a Conspic-
uous place at the station that persons
who have occasion to visit In" depot
have due regard for good order and
behavior but this reasonable advice
seem To have no effect and are disre-
gardod and dsobeyed. when offenders
can do so With impunity, There are
numerous hangcrs-on who are sure to
ho on hand when train is about to
leave or enter the depot and ii is a
difficult matter for passengers to con-

Ot the depot employees and embarraSs

Others have taken to committing nul-
sanccs about the depot that, as men
toned before. are we'll nigh intolerable
and it is chiefly this misbehavior that
causes the warning to come from the
officials at this time.
The issuance of the warning Is not
prupmted by IA narrow spirit, nor with
the view To deprive the public of the
accommodation of the depot, but is
intended for that class who frequent
the station and seem to have no sense
of behavior.

THE LIGHT CONTRACT AGAIN.
1t Will Come Up Again Tonight in
Common Council, When the May
ors Veto Will Likely Be Disposed

The lighting contract of the city
streets, which should have been award
cd i'm May last, which has been enter
tdined between both councils since this
date, will be in hand tonight for the
customary attention bestowed on Ii
at regular Intervals for the past four
or five months.
1t may be disposed Of tonight, for
positions depends on the temper or
pleasure of either one of the TWO SIDES
arrdyed against the measure. What
| phase of the contract remains to be
acted on is the veto of Mayor kilpat-
rick, who is opposed to contracts OF
more than one year, on the ground that
| the city might be a possible loser, there
| by. refused to sign the resolution
awarding the job of lighting the streets
| to the Lackawanna Valley company
| for Il period of three years. Select
council at least all but two members,
did not seem to think there was much
| if any merit in the mayors objection
and promptly passed the veto over his
honors head. Then the veto received
| the attention of common council. The
members in this body did not appear
To think the same and such opposition
! was manifested as to prolong Its dis
position by different courses, for sew
cral weeks. 1t so continued until today
when the veto is to be found in the
! hands of the light, fire and water COM
mttce of common council, who, it Is
expected, will make a report this ev-
'oninC. But more than one report is
looked for and at least the appearance
of a minority and majority would
be no surprise, for on the committee
are two or more members who are de-
termincdly opposed to a three years
contract. 1t is known how the mem
bers of council stand on the veto. with
the exception of Mr.. Pughano. All but
hc were present at the last meeting
when the polled vote showed seven
against the veto and four in it's favor.
1T requires eight votes to reject the
veto. Now Mr.. Pughano's might make
the eighth vote, or it might make the
firth as opposed to the contract. How
this may be no one can say positively
for Mr.. Pughano was not present at
the last meeting and at the meeting
prior he was wavering as to his choice
1t might be said, then, that it is on
his vote that The fate of the contract
depends.
Whatever may be the result, 1t, is
hoped that the matter will be finally
disposed of this evening, for while the
citizens are divided somewhat on this
question as are the councilmen, yet
they are united on one point, and thai
| ig the wish that the veXatiOus matter
be disposed of forthwith.

to whom the contract was awarded, il
