SOME SCANDALS"
IN WALL STREET
Stock Exchange Should Establish Sys-
tenn OF Inspection and Observation.

The authorities of the New York
Stock Exchange have scarcely dis
| posed of "the Rock Island scandal"
when they are called upon to solve a
puzzling problem growing out OF the
collapse of the Columbus and Hooking
Coal and Iron pool.
Much of the current comment upon
these incidents is based upon a mis-
taken conception of the functions OF
the exchange. 1t claims to be merely
voluntary association, the purpose
of which is to provide it's members
with facilities to meet for the buying
and selling of securities.
The system pursued is that of an
open auction upon the floor" the
! seller being bound to accept the high
est price publicly bid and the buyer
being obliged to purchase at the low
est price for which the securities are
offered. This is admitted to be the
best system pursued on any Of the
worlds bourses, but like all others
it is subject to abuse.
Keeping in mind that the stock ex-
change is a big auction room, il is
not clear that sudden rise of $50 a
share in the Rock Island shares the
other day and the almost equally sud
den decline was in any way a reflec-
notwithstanding the fact that in yield
ing to the general clamor of scandal"
and the fear of legislative interfer-
ence it's officials punished the brokers
who executed it's buying orders by
suspending them from the privileges
OF the floor.
The collapse of the Columbus and
Hooking pool is an entirely different
matter. A group of men took hold of
the stock when 1t was quoted not far
above $50 a share, and in the course of
a twelve-month advanced IL to more
than $50 without any convincing rea-
son-merely on circulation of aIiuring
reports as TO promised developments
on the property. Now, on the theory
that the duty of the stock exchange
is merely to provide a meeting place
for presumably responsible buyers and
sellers, it could not be held response
bic for this movement in the resulting
collapse. But the exchange, as a
matter of fact, is great public insti-
tuition and as such owes certain duties
TO the community.
Self-interest-as evidenced in the
trial to which il is now subjected by
the collapse of this pool-demands that
ii shall, so far as possible, prevent
its facilities from being used by such
dishonest and mischievous combina-
tons.
The progress of such pools" as that
in Hooking Coal" became known to
all close observers of Wall street
movements, and in defense of their
own institution il would seem that the
stock exchange authorities must be
impelled TO establish some system of
observation and inspection which will
give them warning when such manip-
ulation is under way and enable them
to exclude the conspirators from the
facilities of the exchange before the
harm is done.

KING OF ALL FISH.

ing his place just beneath the flyer"
and ready TO seize it the moment it
fell into the water. This rarely failed.
The moment the fish began to drop the
tuna would spring at it like a tiger,
turning and tossing the spume into the
air with a splendid and electrifying
rush, a maneuver that was repeated
all over the blue channel

MODERN DIVINE

Kaiser Has Transformed Old Theory
of Monarchy.

That the right of Kings to rule is
of divine grant is a doctrine as tena-

as by all his predecessors in the king

relation between King and subject, re-.
quires OF King the care, the foster

graphic description of this trans
formation, this modernization of the
divine right theory is given in an
article in the current Scribners by
Elmer Roberts on "Monarchical So
clalism in Germany" 1t dates from the
so-called Prussian common law pro-
mulgated in 1894 by Frederick Will

right OF man to work, with its correla-

ton OF the State ito take such meas
ures as will prevent restitution of it's
subjects and check excessive extrava-
gances."
But II was ninety years before Bis

socialism, applied the doctrine. "Give

lodged. "Of course" he replied. LET
them be undertaken. Why not? 1t is
the states duty"
And the state, under him, did it's

POSTAL SAVINGS
IN GREAT BRITAIN
Bank Officials Have Many Grievances
Against DepOSitOrs.

The growing habit of using the post
office savings bank as purse-paying
in shilling to-day and drawing 1t out
a few days Afterwards only one
of the grievances which the officials
have, against many of the depositors
The official view on this misuse of
the bank was given yesterday.
"Reminiscences and carelessness on
the part of many depositors is another
subject of complaint. The fact that
twenty-five clerks are engaged at the
office at West Kensington in tracing
missing and lost deposit books in
dictates that the authorities have
ground for their complaint.
Can you wonder that the average
cost of each of our transactions is
5 3d." said a high official yester-
day, when you take into account the
expense entailed in the upkeep of so
large a staff for what should be so
trivial a purpose? Savings bank de-
posits have wandering careers, even
the very smallest of them. When a
depositor at Little Pedlington lodges
a shilling with the local post-office the
clerk makes out q form and sends it
by post to the accountant generals
branch in London. There some Is 900
accounts are kept, representing the
receipts at each of the post-offices in
the country The totals received every
day at each branch are recorded by
the accountant generals staff, and
then each deposit form, together with
the deposit book is passed on to u.s.
"In this building we have a clerical
force Of 200. In some cons cotton,
either as bookkeeper or correspondent,
each man, woman, boy, and girl of
our staff is kept fully occupied with
part of the many thousand transactions
we complete daily. The trouble is that
shilling deposit entails exactly the
same labor as one for G 8, and as the
post-ofice charges us a fixed rate per
transaction the actual outlay Is also
just as great. Last year the total cost
of the savings bank was E679,678,
and that amount, divided by the num-
Der of transactions. yields the aver
age cost of 3-4d"

CUT IN TWO ny ROPE
AS HE STEERS A SHIP

NEW YORK.-SpeciaL.-O trag-
edy Of the sea and a half dozen minor
but still exciting marine dramas were
described Thursday by the men of the
British steamer Argo, which made port
late on Tuesday night after a, IS
day trip from Seville. including a stop
at Fayal fer repairs. She brought ad-

abled in terrific storm on December
18th. The steamers lifeboats were
washed away. the engine room was al
most flooded and a high wave that
swept the bridge threw the captain
against the railing. breaking his leg.
When the Argo was at Fayal the
Portuguese bark Fortuna was lowed in
with masts gone. Nine OF her fourteen
men had been washed overheard and
both legs OF tenth had been broken.
Worse, the helmsman. who was dashed
TO the wheel. was cut in TWO by the
line. Captain DOVE asserted, and the
two sections OF his body were swept
overheard by wave. The Fortuna
was picked up by the British battleship
Invincible.

OPEN AIN CURES
ARE THE BEST
Physician Says Outdoor Treatment Is
Good Remedy for Pneumonia.

Recent experiments in open-air
treatment of disease were declared to
have shown astonishing results by DR..
William p. Northrup in a lecture de-
livered yesterday at the Academy of
Medicine. DR.. Northrup's address was
the first of a series of twelve on
prevention of disease, which are to
be held at the academy under the
joint auspices of the public health edu-
cation committee of the Medical Socie-
ty of the County of New York and the
hygiene committee of the New York
City Federation of Womens Clubs.
DR.. Northrup declared that the gen.
orally accepted theory that foul air con-
sisted of a deficiency of oxygen and
a large surplus of carbonic acid caus-
ed by breathing was erroneous.
The familiar symptoms of head
ache, dizziness, nausea, and faintness
in crowded Enclosures are caused by
heat storing in the body" he said.
This heat storing is due to increased
moisture in the atmosphere and its
stagnation. In the Black Hole of Cal
cutta the victims died from the increas-
ed heat moisture and heat stagnation,
not lack of oxygen"
1t is steam heated persons who catch
cold, DR.. NOrthrup said, and he declar-
ed that if temperature of rooms was
kept beneath 20 degrees there would
be q great decrease in pneumonia and
many other ills. He said that out
door tr eatmentwasnowreg Oat-hOrr
door treatment was now regarded as
an almost certain cure for pneumonia,
measles, and scarlet fever.
The poor should wear clothing in
preference of crowding in overheated
rooms" he continued. THE body heat
should be governed by coverings, and
not by overheated air.
There is no reason why children
should not be as healthy in New York
as in the country. Anaemic children
are not made so by living in the city,
as opposed to the country, but because
in cold weather they are huddled in
overheated rooms"
DR.. r. G. Freeman, visiting physician
Of the New York Founding Hospital,
told OF haE ing checked an epidemic
of meas s and scarlet fever in that
institution by taking all Of the patients
to the roof, where they remained until
cured.
when the epidemic broke out" said
DR.. Freeman, I'VE expected to lose
many babies. but, thanks to the open
air treatment. there was not one
death"
After the addresses DR.. Freeman de-
clared. in answer to a question, that
no baby was too young for the open
air treatment, provided it was warmly
clothed. He also said that cold baths
were better for young babies than
warm baths if the baby glowed when
taken from the water.
Just dip them in and take them
right out" he said. You need not
be afraid even If the water is very
cold"

TYPEWRITERS IN MANILA.

hear their click and ring from the
busy houses on the Escolta. Manila's

shipping and brokerage Offices in Gale
Anloague, the city's Wall street. Up
to-date filing cases, card index sys-
TENS, loose-leaf ledgers, fiat-top desks
and conveniences of that nature are
finding fast favor with the natives as
well as with some of the foreigners.
The Spanish Office desk was former
ly marvel of beauty, but nothing
else. 1t was of the Louis XIV style,
with bow-legs, nicely carved; and hav-
ing a slanting writing surface. Ev-
erything placed on it had an annoy
ing habit Of rolling into your Ian.
There were no drawers or pigeonholes.
The only receptacle for filing papers
was beneath the writing board. This
had to be lifted, often at the expense
of upsetting the ink, each time one
chose to poke his head into the dark
corners for something.
