Encouraged by the recent heavy

fragettes of the city now have their
own magazine for the propagation
of the truth about the cause they
espouse. 1t is called The Suffra-

size at the present time. In addi-
ton to forceful articles on the sub

own staff of editors it boasts of con
tributiOns in support of it's creed
from many notable writer's, includ-
sing Ebert Hubbard, Jane Adams and
others. 1t is said to have an in
tluential circulation and to be ex-
tending it rapidly. If this is to be
accepted as any evidence of the
strength of the suffragette move

NEW YORK, Sept. 26, 1910
Standing at the end of Peacock Al
lev" the fashionable promenade OF
the Waldorf-Astoria hotel. the other
day two men were discussing the de-
preston in Wall street Each Of
fered an explanation for it, and
sought to account for the present
day aversion to The Street among
small investors. Said one:
The public's been trimmed sew
eral times too often, and they have
got wise to the crooked ways of Wall
street, and the gentlemen OF pred
atory wealth who grow rich and ar
r0gant there on the good faith of the
credulous The unprincipled meth
DDS they employ in depreciating the
market value of stocks of genuine
merit and in boosting the price of
stocks they are exploiting which have
no intrinsic value has sickened and
disgusted the public.
Said the other:
Stand here with me fifteen min
Utes and I'll give you a visual dem
onstration of one of the most power
ful reasons why the investing pub
JIG has cut away from Wall street,
and is now buying on its own jud :
ment. Take a good look at the first
fifty men who pass down this Alley
and see if you recognize them. If
you do try and recall their records
and see if you can not reconcile them
with the loss of confidence suffered
by the public in the integrity of your
so-called high fnanciers. "
Of the first fifty men who glided
by nineteen have been indicted in
the last three years for illegally eX-
plotting the public through cOmbina-
tons in restraint of trade, embe8-
Element, conversion and other trans
gressions of the law. In the group
were Representatives Of Standard
Oil, magnates Of the copper, cotton
and wheat pools which have boosted
the market quotations of these com
m0dities to fictitious prices for their
personal enrichment and others who
looted national and state banks that
they might continue their gambling
operations on a gigantic scale.
All were a well-dresed, over-fed,
prOspeTOus-loOking lot of men, who
might have been decorated with the
Legion of Honor instead of having
been made the subject of grand
jury presentment, so far as any out
ward evidence of concern was APP
parent. AS they strobe by half a
hundred hats were dotted in salute
by that picturesque group of near
fnanciers who make the Warldorf-
Astoria their stalking ground and
look upon the Great Captains of FL
nance as examples of a class worthy
Ct their consideration.
"Of the whole nineteen, said one
Of the men, but a few have been
brought to trial, and not one has
been convicted. although the offenses
with which they have been charged
have enabled them to get millions
out of the public Can you blame
the public for giving Wall street a
wide berth"
