The stories of the great fortunes that
have been made on Wall street recent
~ are such as VIII lead a fresh batch
OF lambs to the shearing.
A great many men are so constituted
that they think they can tell how a
market Is to be manipulated. They are
anxious to get rich without work, and
reading the stories Of the fortunes that
are made in stock gambling in Wall
street. they begin to gamble the same
way.
This class makes up the mass Of
those who furnish the pickings for the
stock manipulators. They do not stop
to think that every dollar that is made
in Wall street is lost by some one else
usually by some victim who is foolish
enough to think he can beat the manip-
uiators at their own game. Nor do they
connect the great crop Of embezzle-
ments and shortages and suicides with
board of trade gambling. Yet when
some trusted employe OF q bank or
other commercial institution is found
short. how often is it discovered that
he has been one of the lambs in
stock manipulation!
The supply Of lambs appears never to
run short, and therein is one of the
great evils of stock gambling If 1t
was only the big gamblers who prey on
one another It would not be so bad;
but the small fr~ hearing OF the for
tunes made by some of the manipula-
tors, but blind to the losses of others,
rush in with their savings and cast
them into the great whirlpool of spec
ulation. Too often they send after
them the funds of others entrusted to
their care, and then the world hears of
more entertainments, ard there are
more suicides or prison stripes.
