A STRAIGHT TIP.-A prominent New
at the expense of Philadelphian:
Some time ago Mr.. w. gave dim -,
and at it were several Wall street
operators. w. is always on the look
out for market tips. AS a rule. he is
rather cautious in his habits, but that
night he dined bit too freely, and
awoke the next morning in a rather
muddled condition. But he was per-
feCtly clear on one thing.
Sornehc dy had given him a tip to
buy corn. Who gave him, the infor-
nation, w. could not recall:~He knew
nothing of corn, or any other grain.
But he went ahead and operated in
cora with a vengeance, brought 100000
bushels, and the price began to climb,
then he bought more. The shorts
got scared, ran to cover, and on the
final jump w. covered and cleaned up
$4,000.
That night he hunted up his guests
and tried to find the man who had
given him such valuable advice, but
in vain. w. was becoming worried.
His coachman drove him home, and
as he stepped from his carriage, his
man said:
Excuse me, sir, but did you order
corn? Last night you promised to
buy forty bushels. We're clean out,
SIR"
He gave the fellow $1,000 bill, say
ing, Buy the corn and keep the
change.

81 a bushel, and then sold it for $3.50.
"I made $3.50 out Of that pig he
remarked to me the day after the an
imal was takenjaway.

forty bushels Of corn, at 81 bushel,
