Fate of a Sucker.

I dropped into one of the downtown restaurants for an early cup of coffee a day or two ago and my waiter, a wiry little Scotchman, handed me morning paper to glance over, at the same time pointing to a paragraph of comment on the purchase by J. Pierpont Morgan of an antique cup for $S1,000 Trough, ain't it. he said, and then I remembered that the little man had told me a sor

Bull Play Failed.

Some months ago Q bull campaign in Chicago Great Western common was widely advertised in the street. The house entrusted with the management of the manipulation issued "calls' on the stock for a large aggregate total and distributed them freely among the touts and financial laborers of the district. The deal dragged through several months and finally fiattened out, the announce ment being privately made by the di- rectng spirit that conditions were not right for a bull play, but that later on
 something would be done for the crops of helpers who had contributed their services gratuitously to the enterprise. It how turns out that the sole purpose of the deal was to market a block of Si4,00O 900 of the stock issued in exchange for the Fort Dodge road, little Iowa line cast off last year by the Rock Island system Wide public interest was aroused in Great Western stock by the very general and generous advertising given the alleged bull movement, which, as stated was little less than bunco game. The literary contingent of Wall street is getting leary of calls issued to gain their good will 1t .s familiar and ancient trick of market manipu- lators to buy the help of an industrious and possibly influential element in Wall street by the issuance of worthless calls, but the practice has latterly grown into distinct disfavor The worst frost of that kind which has vieited Wall street in recent years was in connection with the Notation of Steel securities four years ago. Calls were distributed to the ex- tent of tens of thousands of shares, and 1t is not of record that in single indi- vidual instance a dollar was realized on them by their holders. That fiasco may account for the i'll will which Is so often shown now in talking clubs against rep resentatives of Morgan & Co.

 Morton Surprised Street.
 Other Gossip.
BY W. G. NICHOLAS.

New York June 3.-Eyery indication points to a period of market dullness. Conservative commission houses are ad- vising their customers against purchases and are counseling patience. They ad- init they see nothing very bearish in business conditions, but explain that there is an obvious lack of bullish en- thusasm, coupled with the absenteeism of a lot of influential traders. A ma jority of commentators have settled among themselves that the decline ot the last sixty days is in large part merely a reaction from overspeculation. The overspeculation referred to was within very much narrower bounus than is usually found in big market advances and was confined to a very much small CT number of persons. The multitude re- fused consistently to engage in the game and the buying and selling was done by the professional and semi professional element, which was abundantly provided with funds with which to carry on a speculative campaign. The investing pub lie put large amount of money in bonds, but even that demand appears to be satisfied for the moment and busi- ness therein is shrinking. The sales made these days are at concessions from best prices obtainable a few weeks ago and the drift seems to be still down. ward, although not strongly so. Crop uncertainties, Hull in industrial activi- ties in certain directions, broadcast dis trust of financial management ill high places and a slight touch of uneasiness over the political situation are among the things talked of in explanation of current market indecision. Slight fear is entertained of serious further decline, but most people appear quite willing to hold off. It might be recalled, however, i that commission men and market ad- visers are generally found lukewarm or bearish when prices reach the lowest point after a break. 1t takes courage to advise purchases in a dull and sluggish market, whereas anybody can advise in vestments when things are booming.
