| Curb Bubbles"
i The entire history of New York;
curb market Is speckled with Incl
dents such as that just witnessed
many Of its pages are actually blotch
ed. Persons whose memories rur
back no more than ten years will
i recall some Of them. Not all, either
have been Of mining stocks. The
incident of International Power or
April 80, 1902, for instance, when
Its price fell headlong from 1919 te
1870 in a single day, because q brok'
err concerned in the manipulation Of
its Hotpoint rise earlier in the month
admitted that the insiders had failed
to give out counterbalancing order
to buy 5000 shares when some one
tried to sell that amount, Is one OF
the speckles, and the incident OF Gem
eral Carriage, in exactly the same
week of 1902, is another. That
stock had no assets except the char
ter of the company, which was gen.
orally admitted to be worthless. It
was selling on the curb at 81 per
800 shares, when one night group
of ingenious schemers sent out q
bushel of anonymous letters to all
the spectators and Wall Street
houses whom they could think Of,
announcing that General Carriage
was going to 25." In those days
nearly any kind of tip was suffl-
cient to send a stock hurtling upward
and General Carriage actually rose
to LOh. Then, one day, some one
tried to sell, tho bottom dropped out,
and in couple of hours the stock
was 5.
These two were instances where
Wall Street was landed" more than
the general public. For notable ex'
ample of other direction, however,
an example of which this weeks Ely
Central case is hardly more than a
shadow, one need go no further back
than the crazy speculation in mining
shares which swept the entire coun-
try no longer ago than three years.
Then it was the Cobalt stocks which,
by their Wild activity, seized the
public fancy, causing them to plunge
blindly into the market, buying right
and left of stocks about which they
knew nothing, until their speculations
had reached stupendOus proportions.
When 1t is said that In the closing
six months of 1906 the transactions
on the curb aggregated not less than
10, 900 900 shares, the extent OF the
speculation can easily be appreciated.
Mining stocks SO predominated mi
public interest," then that OF those
10, 900, 900 shares probably one
tenth represented industrial COM
panies ordinarily finding their legiti-
mate market in Broad street; theI
other nine-tenths were speculative
mining securities, pure and simple.
The craze began, 1t will be recalled
early in the year, following the deal
whereby the Heinze copper proper
ties we're acquired in the interest OF
the Amalgamated Copper Company.
United Copper, which had sold around
8 in the preceding year, scared to
10; Butte Coalition rose until 1t was
200 per cent over its par value and
other copper stocks advanced almost
correspondingly. A b(eak warned
many intending purchasers off them
lust in time, but the public's appe-
tite for speculation was whetted;
times we're good, and there was plen-
ty of money being earned with which
to buy stocks.

A FORTUNE WASSuhk
Priest Made Visionary Invest
ments and Foolish
Ventures.
CARDINAL TO PAY DEBTS

Baltimore, Md. March 12-That
Rev. Casper p Ebert. until recently
pastor of St. Katlerine's Roman Cath
Ollie church, had become financially in
yolyed to the extent Of $780, 900, and
that notes aggregating at least that
total would be shouldered by Cardi-
nal Gibbons, has been disclosed by
MIR. Edgar H. Cans. to whom the un-
travelling of the ENHANCEMENT of the
priests affairs has been intrusted by
the Cardinal.
Following an exhaustive investiga-
ton of affairs Mr.. Cans made plain
three facts:
L. Not a holder of any of Father
Elbert's notes will lose penny, as
the obligations will be taken up as
presented.
2. The genuineness of Cardinal
Gibbons alleged signature as purport-
ed indorser of any note will not be
disputed ON any instance.
s. No prosecution of Father Ebert
for any possible irregularities is con-
templated.
While the task Of clearing up the fl.
nancial affairs of the priest and ais
parish has not yet progressed to any
stage, the opinion is entertained that
an effort may late- be made to re.
cover some portion of the amour;
sunk by Father Ebert in visionary
ventures
