MONOPOLY BROKEN

Operations of Mysterious
American Arouses Finan-
ciers Who Held Control.

SHANGHAI, Sept 1s.-Representa-
tives of the foreign financial interests,
which hitherto have regarded China as
their private monopoly, showed much
perturbation today at the news that
the first installment of the s5O,OOO,OOO
loan arranged for by the mysterious
American. A.'Wendell Jackson. actually
was being paid to the Peklng govern
ment.
The six powers" group, with its Of
ficial diplomatic backing. had counted.
sooner or later, on starving the new
republic into accepting it's terms for a
loan--terms which would not only have
netted the bankers an enormous finan-
cial profit. but would virtually have
given them control Of the government
When the government demurred the
group sat back to wait; An unofficial
Belgian syndicate, which attempted
some time ago to break into the situa-
tion, was successfully scared off. Being
unknown. Jackson was not taken seri-
oosly at first, any by the time the
group realized the danger, 1t was an
nounced that the transaction was closed
and the money being paid.

Unidentified Visitor
Asks for $4,000

An aged man who said he was Hen
derson NJ. Powers, of 715 Beaver street.
Lancaster, Pa. this morning walked
into the Commercial National Bank.
and N a matter-of-fact way asked the
cashier for $4,000. Powers explained
that the money was coming to him in a
business transaction.
The bank officials, after talking with
the man, decided that he was suffering
from some mental trouble. They refer
red him to Sanitary Officer Robert
Sroufe, who preferred a charge of in
sanity against the man, and sent him
to the Washington Asy lum Hospital for
observation.
Powers had IS in cash in his pockets.
He accused the detectives who took his
money and watch and other property
from him of being pickpockets and
thieves.

GOSSIP OF DAY.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-Every COM
mission house was a center OF inter-
est to a large number of spectators
and spectators this morning. The
sudden, unexpected and sensational
gain in the last half of Tues
days session gave cause to much
spt culation Traders discussed the
rise, wondering whether the banking
fraternity had given encouragement
to the movement that started the
shorts to covering with more urgency
than they have shown for months and
finally decided that the unweildy
short interest had become panic
stricken and rushed the buying to
their own loss.
Just at present nearly all the big
interests are in favor of a construc-
tive policy but they are against be-
ginning construction work with the
banks losing part of their surplus re-
serve every day, today's figures show

Naturally the unexpected advance had
the effect of bringing some stock on the
market, the profit, compared with the
buying prices of the last few days, hav-
ing a tempting size.
With the immediate opening further
advances were scored. but selling orders
checked them. In the case of Union
PACIFIC the advance was ". Reading, u,
and Steel a fraction. These prices
proved to be the high of the early hours,
and almost Immediately the recession
started. Union Pacific came back to
170%, Y point net loss; Reading to 1874
also a fraction net loss. Steel lost Y.
In the less active group there were
fewer changes. The grangers, HIS,
st. Paul, Southern Pacific, New York
Central. and Pennsy prices remained
comparatively steady.
500 line gained 2ss; Westinghouse
gained a point; l.. & N. was Y off.
During the first and second hour
Of the afternoon the market moved
extremely slowly, while the changes
were of no Importance, the huctua-
tions bring prices back to noon levels
