BROKERS MUST OBEY INSTRUCTIONS.

New York, Oct, sSA decision just
rendered by Judge Woodward in the
appellate division of the supreme court
has caused considerable agitation am-
ong stock exchange brokers'
The complainant in the case sought
to recover balance due on an account
and claimed that after having notified
the broker not 10 invest this balance,
he bought stocks and used the money
as margin. The plaintiff was y woman
and acted as her sisters agent,
In ruling for the plantin. Judge
Woodward declared that brokers must
obey instructions from their clients OF
stand responsible for money lost on
margins,
1t is also held that discretionary or
ders," are legal despite the rules of the
exchange. which forbid such transac-
tions; the rules of the exchange are
not binding on innocent third parties
and that brokers are responsible for the
actions of their clerks when instruct
ions are misunderstood and that the
plea of misunderstanding is not a
good defense.

NORTH SHORE ROAD.

A dispatch sent out from Vancouver,
Wash, yesterday would indicate the
Northern Pacific is actually figuring on
building a road on the north side Of the
Columbia. The dispatch follows:
THAT the Washington Railway and
Navigation Company, said to be the
real property Of the Northern Pacific.
intends to build it's lines along the
north shore of the Columbia river at
least to the Cascades. is proven by
maps that have been placed on file In
the United States land Office here.
These maps, six in number. show the
definite location of the company s
lines from the mouth of the Columbia
river to Kelso, and from Vancouver to
the Cascades.
"The length of the road as indicated
by the maps, is 6s.6 miles from the sea
coast TO Kelso and III from Vancou-
yer to the Cascades, or total of SET
miles. As indicated on the maps filed,
the course of the line through the mil
itary reservation at Vancouver Bar
racks would be over the Fifth street
roadway, passing thence through the
city over Fifth street to about F street,
where it makes curve to the north to
d junction with the present w. & 0.
tracks,
The completion of survey and filing
of maps are evidence that the buildingl
of a road down the Columbia is at least
receiving serious consideration at the
hands of Mr.. Hill. The report that
Hartman is dickering for the Astoria
& Columbia River road also bears the
earmarks of truth and the ownership Of
a railroad on either side of the Colum-
bia by the two magnates is a very rea-
sonable probability.

StEClAL
New York, April Awhile in Switzerland
during his recent European trip. Charles NJ.
Schwab, president of the United States
Steel Corporation. purchased five watches.
costing 1900 each. which he will present
to the five superintendent of the corpora
TONS manufacturing plant, who get the
most and the best work out Of the armies
OF laborers under them
Not until recently has the significance of
Mr.. Schwab's purchase OF these watches
been nown. even to his most intimate
friends, for he has kept IL very much of
a secret Those who knew that he had
bought five 1900 watches were surprised.
There was never any doubt that Mr..
pocket Of his entire wardrobe IL he felt
SO inclined. but even multi-millionaires do
not so burden themselves with expensive
c-hromoneters.
Mr.. Schwab's idea in getting the extraor-
binary watches was an outgrowth OF his
own experience. Every one knows that he
rose from the ranks to the highest sal
aried position in the world. What helped
him most to rise was the magnetic tenn
peramen that made his soft-toned requests
more Influential among those around him
than the sharp OF others.
He was reminded OF the idea while on
a sightseeing tour through one of the won
derful matchmaking establishments in Lu-
cerne. and when he asked the price OF five
watches of exceptional value he was not
at all abashed when told that the bill
would be $500 francs.
Recently. he announced to his superin-
tendents that he had bought the watches
did the best work. and now there Is great
rivalry among the small army of men who
direct the manufacturing operations of the
great corporation.

The reason for the company's change Of

800 have been offered and refused. Mr..
Finley said the company's price for a GER

made was 1900.
THE Belgian hare craze is over now"
