Governing Committee OF New
York Board Probing Deals
of Last Saturday
MATCHING" SALES is cHAReEp
Evidence Of Deal Between Brokers and
Sellers to Make Fictitious Sales in
Order to Create Aetivity-Enormous
Transactions in a Few Securities,
Other Trading on Small Scale.

New York, Aug. PA meeting Of
the governing committee of the stock
exchange will be held at 3:15 this at a
ternoon to Investigate the character OF
the dealings on the floor of the ex-
change Saturday, when eleven secur-
tiles furnished total transactions in exc
cess of 100000 shares, leaving only
72,OOO shares for all the remainder Of
the list.
The dealings created no little excite
ment while they were in progress and
while by some the extraordinary ac-
tivity for the half holiday session was
believed to be due to possible strug-
gle for supremacy between big mar
ket factions, yet by many were ascribed
to pure manipulation. This element be-
lieved they saw many evidences OF
matched orders, or transactions In
which both brokers buying and selling
act for the same operator, whose de-
sign is to create a semblance of ac-
tivity without running the actual risk
of buying or selling.
If matching orders is found to have
been the explanation of Saturdays &C.
tivity, measures will be taken to pre-
vent a repetition of the tactics on the
floor of the exchange.

considerably.

of the city. Within it's walls are the
Saraglio, the principal mosques, the
nausoleums Of the sultans, the baths.
the bazaars, the public offices of gov
ernment, and the existing remains OF
ancient Constantinopie.

poses into three municipal circles and
into a large number of quarters. Sep
arate quarters are allotted to the Ar
menians, the Greeks, and the Jews.
In 1865 the quarters were destroyed
by fire. The general appearance of the
older streets is that of a city built of
wood Many of the buildings, however,
are Of much more solid construction,
some of brick and some of brick and
stone.

FITZGERALD EXPLAINS
Man Arrested for $4,000 Theft Ex-
plains His speculations and Who're
the Money Came From-Government
Not Prosecuting.

Chicago, Aug. 24.-George W. Fitz-
gerald, arrested yesterday on q charge
of stealing $4,000 from the United
States sub-treasury in February, 1907,

states attorney to collect further evil
dence.
Il have not nicEle that does not
belong to me-" exclaimed Fitzgerald.

ton of the money used in his specu-
tion. When he was discharged from
the government employ he declared
he had $1,000; his wife possessed about
$1,000, and later he inherited between
$4,000 and $4,000. His egg specula-
tions began with an investment of only
$500, he asserted, as he had only put
up sufficient margins to cover prob
able fluctuations in prices This deal
netted him $500. He then interested
several and together they made up a
pool Of $4,000, by the use Of which
they made some profit.

it was offered for $4,000, with a $4,000
mortgage. He and Mrs. Fitzgerst.a Sc
cured the property by paying down
300.

worked up by a private detective
agency, and no move was made by the
government authorities in court today.

torney Davis, and Chief Porter, of the
government secret service, declared to-
day that they did not believe the, pres
ent evidence warrants holding Fitz-
gerald. Porter sent a telegram to this
effect to Chief Wilkie, at Washing

the greater the amount of work DONE

other diplomat accredited to Washing
