NEW YORK. Aug. 29.-The
bucket shop people have given a
pyrotechnic show with the failure
of M. ]. Sage & Co, who were the
kingpins of the business. This firm
kept 30 telegraph operators busy in
their Jersey City establishment,
and had four trunk lines of tele-
graphs to the south alone, with
agents in many cities. to the num-
Der of 1876. They handled about
$4,000 shares daily, and got caught
by the bulls to the tune of $4,000
900, which is quite tidy sum to
lose even for a bucket shop. 1t Is
estimated that the notorious "Al."
Adams. who served a term for pol
icy playing on a gigantic scale, and
who is said to have backed the
bucket shop, is out about million,
and refused to put up any more
mash, letting them drop with dull
thud.
The passion for bucket shop deal
ings is widespread, the disease find
ing its victims throughout the en-
tire country, no matter whether
there has been a recent exposure or
not. Wall street firms say this fail
ure will lead to the diminution If
not the extinction of many others
in the same line of business.
The swindle Is palpable, as in
many cases there is no transaction
in the stock market to base the
business upon. as the proprietors
simply mark a stock up or down.
The collapse in the case of Sage &
Co. came so suddenly, so surely and
irretrievably, that even the arch
conspirators could not get out in
time. There appears to be in this
case, at least so the managers say,
about $4,000 assets to meet the
