NEW YORK NEWS LETTER

New York, Nov. SIT is a trite
saying that "things are seldom what
they seem" in Wall street, and we'll
posted men down town declare that
this IL just as applicable to the cleo
tion betting in the financial district
a. Il 10 TO the manipulation Of securi-
ties, Wall street makes the prices or
odds for wagcrs on Presidential con-
tests as IL marks up and down the quo
tatlOnH for securities. There is a diff
ference Of opinion as to the effect on
public sentiment Of the betting on an
election, but some Of the party man
aQegs on both sides have an abiding
faith in the influence that the prepon.
derance. of money wagered on a GER
tain candidate is supposed to exert.
When the odds favor one side, as they
do the Republican candidate at the
close OF the national campaign now, IL
Is customary for the "outsiders" I'M
the betting to charge that the betting
is being manipulated. Democratic
hettors and partisans who do not bet
declare, that the same methods have
been used to force down the odds on
Parker or force them up on Roosevelt,
which amounts TO the same thing as
have been used to wash y sales oRI
the stock market. The brokers in Wall
street have ever an eye to the main
chance, and it was not long after the
betting opened on the curb that they
saw the possibilities When the bet
ting opened it was on the ratio Of l0l
10 8 and 10 to Z on Roosevelt. This
was soon hammered down to 2 to /,
and the hammering process has contin-
ued until to / ratio has been es-
tablished. A majority Of the 8 to /
bets being made are being laid, it is
naid, by those who are hedging on the
former bets made, and there is another |
class which by the same methods en-.
deavor 10 force the odds back again,
enabling them to hedge and make
heck that cannot lose. Whether one
side of the other wins the bookmaker-
oy In this case the brOker-has a good
proat.

"All right, son. n.y. said the cobbler, as he picked up the shoes and tied them up in news paper; but the boy seeing the picture of one of the presidential candidates whom he had no use for, absolutely re- fused to take them with that picture on them.
