al the price. This sets the pace
Tor all Who vish TO take part IN the
game. and immense quantities Of the
commodity are thus bought and sold
os,ensibly 10 be delivered al the
same time and at the same price
/ I, may be that the sellers do not
ovn a particle OF the commodity
sold. and that the buyer does no, de-
sire a particle Of Il. and that neither
expects any Of Il delivered at the
time named. the stake played for
being the difference al the specified
time OF delivery between the price
then prevalent and the price agreed
upon. II the prevalent price at the
osiensible time OF delivery Is less
than the contract price, the pur-
chaser pays 10 the seller the differ
ence . u Il is above the contract
price the seller pays TO the pur-
chaser the difference.
To illustrate II wheat be the
commodity and a million bushels be
the quantity sold. II. al the time Of
delivery, the prevalent price, liked
by another gambling deal running
farther into the future, Is two cents,
for instance, below the prevalen;
price. the buyer must pay 10 the
seller $50 900 and II II should be
two cents above the contract price.
the seller pays 10 the buyer $780,
600. This is the sum il would cost
either IN that case 10 make good the
contract, and that is the stake play
ed for. Il is not necessary that
either should have or expect a grain
Of wheat. but is evident that. after
the deal is made, every energy OF
one party, good or bad, Is exerted
10 force the price Of wheat above
that Of the contract, while that OF
the other is as assidiously devoted
TO bringing the price below that OF
the contract.
And thus is made the price OF
every grain OF wheat sold on the
market by the producer and every
bite Of bread eaten by the consumer
: II deiies the Law Of supply and de-
mand, ignores the labor OF the farm

as an example. Every commercial
commodity from the farm must b

The New York Stock Exchange has

laws are entirely suspended when a

OF the harm that the grain gamblers
and the stock gamblers OF New York
do every day, nor did they ever
exercise anything like the corruptine
influences over politics. Il has been
asserted without denial that 90 per
cent Of the New York purchases and
sales Of stock and produce are
merely bets upon the market value,
with no intention on the part Of the
vendor 10 deliver or on the part OF
the purchaser 10 receive. This il
not business; il is not common
vulgar gambling, and when to the
ordinary chances that the gambler
takes are added the extraordinary
chances due TO the secret manipula-
