Defence Of tho Big Board.

President Aguero's defence of Stock Ex-
change methods was occasioned by the
receipt OF the following three questions;
What Is the matter with the Stock EX-
changer How can the evils admitted
10 exist by officers Of the exchange best
be corrected, by federal or state legisla-
tionY Would the incorporation OF the
Stock Exchange under the state. compel
ling supervision and regulation. best guar
antee the reforms that seem necessary
Replying to these questions in their
order, President Aguero said in part:
There is nothing the matter with the
Stock Exchange. It's constitution, by
laws and rules are made up from the
experience of generations or trading III
stocks and bonds and are an epltome o,
regulations for honest brokerage ana
fair dealings. There is only one trouble.
A few men have sought to control the
policy and the destiny OF this great m
stitution. and they have made MISTAKES
for which the whole body is made TO
suffer.
The only evil that thinking Wall Street
men can admit Is over-manlpuiatioh'
which IL rarely the work or the mem
bers. but is practised by the larger opeI-
ators. who distribute orders simultane-
ously at times, thereby causing indue
imitation or depression. Usually tne
broker who executes the order only
knows his part Of IT and should not NC
held responsible for the result. ,,,.
The so-called evil OF short sellins'
which has been dwelt upon until IL Is
bugaboo. has proved In many instances
blessing in disguise. as without .he

short interest there would De no puyeaS
I'm times OF panic. when every holder or
securities wants TO liquidate at the same

Now as to the mistakes of the Stock

SANITATION in the city or state or coun-
try or lin the world. 1t is mistake for
one coterie of men TO think that they

100 O00. 600 people. 1t is a mistake 10
consider that the quotations made upon
any exchange are the property OF the
exchange. when as an item or news they
should be the property or the whole peo-
really the property of the man who pays
n commission for having the order exc
cuted.
In conclusion Mr.. Aguero said that
