Missouri Pacific
True to Traditions

Missouri Pacific is true to its tradi-
tlons. Nearly every one who has traded
in it recently has lost money, especially
the customers of commission houses. So
keen was Wall Street for something
safely ito bull' that Missouri Pacific,
representing a property of great poten-
tialities, which was going to be prop
erly financed, efficiently managed. and
miraculously rehablltated, was almost
Irresistible. Commission houses issued
special letters on ii around 50, advising
their clients to buy il for "a long pull,
and people went TO and fro saying there
was stock in which you could put
your money, with the assurance that 1t
was going alongside the most successful
money in Wall Street. Also, the idea
of contest for control appealed strong
ly to the Imagination. The result was
acquired more Missouri Pacific between
80 and 60 than they had bought in sew
eral years before. The sequel is that
in one week the price has declined be-
low the line of enthusiasm. 1t sold
under 80 yesterday. Between 30 and 80
there was such a market for the stock
as would have enabled the holders of
the block privately purchased last July
from the Pearson Farquhar syndicate to
sell out very handsomely. 1t cannot be
said that they did, but it is evident
enough that they could have done so.

The United States Supreme Court will
decide against both the Standard Oil
and American Tobacco trusts. The news
will come a little after l. o'clock some
Monday, and it will be the particular
Monday in which nobody expects it.
Everybody will be out to lunch. Prices
will fall headlong. Those who have
stocks which one-half hour before were
quoted below par will tear them up, to
evade the liability.
Those who have stocks which have
been worth more than par will gather
them together in bundles, like old news
papers. carry them down to % Broad
way, and say: Here are the stocks
What will you give for them?" The
cashier there will say in a lofty man
ner: "One at time, please, and no
crowding. If anybody doesn't like our
way of doing things. he may depart
There is no money anywhere else
He cannot sell his stocks anywhere else
Those who have st. Paul stock please
come forward
Some will become impatient and doubt
the statement that there is no money
elsewhere.
They will take their bundles and re-
turn to the stock exchange, but the
stock exchange will be closed.
The governors will have decided that,
since the money is all on one side and
the stocks are all on the other. il is no
use to keep open.
Many will tire of their burdens and
drop them, saying, wearily. "Oh, what's
the use? We will apply for the Jobs of
the striking express drivers"
Before 3 o'clock securities will be
found fiuttering in the cutters.
Messenger boys will walk on them.
The panic will last for three DAYS. and
then the discovery will be made that
things are very much as they always
were, and that the Supreme Courts de-
cision was blessing in disguise.
