Indiana Man gets Option on
Block of Panama Bonds
and Sells it for $4,000.
TWAS WITHOUT ANY CAPITAL
FOR YEARS AN INSIGNIFICANT
CLERK HE is NOW SOUGHT AT.
TER BY coRPoRATIoNs-wlLL
TAKE EUROPEAN TRIP.

New York, July Ga quiet, mod
est Hoosier is the wonder of Wall
street and financial circles through
d out the country, just now. From an
ordinary clerk in the central office of
the American Express Company, in
= Broadway, he has developed in less
: than week. into one of the shrewd-
\ est, bOldest financiers in the metrop-
s)lis, outwitting the keenest sharps in
f'-he bond market, and realizing a snug
Efortune of $4,000 on the invested
VCapital of a 2-cent stamp.
Wall street is doffing it's hat to
samuel Byerly, formerly of Indiana,
and wondering what manner of man
he is to win out from 1900 competit-
DTS for $5,000,000 worth of Panama
anal bonds and then successfully to
{ dispose of them at the neat margin
o fs1O,OOO without, practically, a cent
0 Eassets back of him
Better Place and Many Offers.
A few days ago Mr.. Byerly was one
of 100 clerks in the express COM
pa ny's employ, position he had held
for. five years without attracting at
ter ttion for unusual merit Today he is
pie inning for two months vacation
to Europe, and has risen to a much
bet ter position of responsibility in the
tire aSurer's Office of the company
wit alluring offers from some of the
gre attest financial corporations in
New York tucked in his pocket.
His Story of the Deal
Here is the story OF the deal as Mr.
VByerly related it to the representa-
tive of The News: Il studied 1t out
The Government bonds are the
! Nest investment in the world-2 per
c ent. bonds selling for little more
IL IAN par. Then, too, I based nv cal
Gu Nations on the conditions of the
COZ lntry. studying the immigration
phf se. The 1903 per cent. bonds
wer selling at 1O3A. and it seemed
to m that these Panama bonds were
bette +. A shade under 1O4 would get
them cheap, l reasoned and it did.
Saw His way Out.
81 had planned, beforehand, to dis
pose ofNthe bonds, if they should be
awarded me. Through the outside
channel Sof a friend I.sounded several
bankers in regard to buying my op-
ton, which eliminated any entangling
alliances
"WfNenT bids for the Panama bonds
were opened I sent in mine for S.
000, 000C worth. Secretary Shaw awar-
ded them TO me.
"Of> co urse, my bid would not have
been pos Ible had Secretary Shaw de
a, CASH deposit from all bid
ders. Under the existing circumstan-
ces my bidf was as good as that of
any muffin Gllionaire
SHE to Brokers.
GAS soon as | had secured my
award of $1,000, 600 of the bonds, be-
gan to negotia tiate'with several firms
with the result that the J. S. Bach
card Company bought my option, and,
in turn, disposed Of it to Fisk and
who had ALREADY subscrib-
ed to 15,000.00O of the issue, and
thus acquired control of two-thirds,
instead of one-half of the,total issue
of Panama canal bonds.
THAT is the story; of the deal-the
story of what has made spossible the
realization of the dream, of my life.

that a better way to accomplish
things.
