Exchange Collecting Evidence
for the Government.

With the abolition OF all bucket shops
in view the Stock Exchange is gathering
evidence against such concerns, which
will be turned over TO the state and FED
eral authorities with recommendation
that they take drastic action and impose
the fun penalties OF the law. owing to
the activities Of the government In other
fields, 1t is said that out-of-tovn bucket
shops have been doing particularly
fourishing business. particularly in up
state cities.
lillian c. Van Antwerp, a MEMBER or
the exchange. who recently made trip
upstate tells OF seeing bucket shops run
ming wide open in hotel lobbies at Buf-
fslo. Syracuse. Rochester and other cities.
and he says this evil. which was thought
10 have been almost wiped out. is four-
ishing with it's oldtime vigor.
In order TO verify his suspicious Mr..
Van Antwerp bought twenty shares OF
Reading on point margin In place
AT Syracuse. He said he managed 10
break even on the transaction. but inc
man In charge Of the customers room III
receiving the margin money ADDED 1t to
a personal roll which he drew from
his pocket and paid OF from the same
source \ false telegraph key was sup
posed 10 have sent the order 10 Ne"
York
The bucket shop men explain their
business by claiming TO De members OF
the exchange" and advertise In the local
newspapers. but they refrain from say
ing that they are members Of the New
York Stock Exchange or any other sh-
istng institution.
The Consolidated stock Exchange has
also been carrying on an active campaign
against the bucket shops. and evidence
will soon be produced and turned over TO
the United States government that should
assist in driving these undesirable ciu-
zens" TO cover. The amendments 10 inc
New York State bucket shop law passed
BY the Legislature just adjourned ana
signed bv Governor Sulzer. were sug-
cestcd by the Consolidated Exchange
through NJ. f.. de Aguero. its president.
