"H0N0R AMONG THIEVES"
One Way OF Getting Out of an Un-
promising Mining Venture.

Honor among thieves" Wall
street broker snorted contemptuously
"Of course. there isn't any. And 1t
doesn't matter whether one is talking
Of common pickpockets or Of those
sharp fellows that-get their money
some other way" says the Washing
ton Post
Let me tell you an instance I heard
of this afternoon. There are two men
who. while they are not partners,
have joint control of a large business.
One OF them got mixed up in a min
ing company out West somewhere.
He put $4,000 into 1t before he
found out that 1t was no good 1t
nearly made him sick abed when he
knew the truth, but he didn't say a
word TO his business associates
ON the contrary he suddenly be-
came absolutely non-communicative
about his mining venture so much so
that his friend suspected that some
thing was up. Pretty soon Jones,
we'll call him. the owner of the min,
ing stock. began to ask the stenog-
rapher to stay after hours 80 as to
dictate letters to the managers Of the
mine. There letters he always In
sisted upon mailing himself after
they had been copied in a private let
ter book which he kept locked in his
own particular safe.
Brown, his associate, noticed all
this and tried to pump the stenog-
rapher. but v did no good One night
he had to return. to his office for some
paper that he had forgotten, and.
glancing around. saw Jones's private
letter book lying on the table
The temptation was too much fon
him. and he took a hurried glance
through II. He saw numberless allu-
sions to the discovery of a bonanza
untold millions In sight, got to keep it
quiet until everything was arranged
and all the stock corralled, etc.
That was enough for Brown. He
never said a word to Jones the next
day, but quietly. very quietly, went TO
work and started to buy all the stock
In Jones's mine that he could get hold
Of He found that one curb broker
was the only one that seemed to know
anything about it, and that the stock
was firm at above par
Little by little he got the stock In
during the next four weeks. In ali
that time he went down to the office
at night just twentyfour times and
found Jones's letter book carelessly
left out just twice.
"Joness letters told the manager
that some one was trying to get con-
troll of the stock. accused him of bad
faith and so on. At any rate. II con-
firmed Brown In the belief that he
was going to make a pot of money, and
he kept on buying mining stock until
he had about $50, 900 planted.
"He was beginning to get feverish.
but didn't dare to ask his business as
sociates anything about the property
for fear Of exciting suspicion. One
morning he got down TO the office late
after bad night Of worry. When he
entered tho door and said good morn
Ing to Jones. Jones's face was wreathcd
In smiles
What's up?' says Brown. You're
as clipper as a spring lamb

Of discussion which arose in the senate
today over the effort to fix a date for
a vote upon the SmoOt case indicates
senate without considerable speech
making for and against him. The view
of the subject taken by Senator Teller,
