EXAMPLE: My first moves in welding the power of
National Stock for the benefit of its stockholders the
public will be certain and aggressive operations in Aneri
Smelters National Lead, Trinity and First National
Copper St Paul r. r.. and Yukon Gold. An event still
soggy in the public mind will show the procedure. At
when the market hardly OF the commissions OF

that govern such transactions turned the Gug-

pay thereby leaving the stock unprotected and exposed
the attacks of the SYSTEM who. fearful of my success
jumped its value thereby inducing spectators be-
eve they had been trcked and causing them to SELL cav-
ing the market price under the thumb of the System.
Had National Stock" handled Yukon, the money paid
by the public would have been retained support the stock
in the market buying all the stock that offered either
by those who wished to sell for profit by those who by
selling freely wished attack the value the result being
that a short time the stock would be firmly established

accomplished the money received for the stock then out
