Newspaper Troubles In Martinsburg

Newspaper Troubles In MartinSburg.
VIM. E. HoifheinS last Saturday filed
application before Judge ]. M. Woods of
the Berkeley Circuit Court for the ap-
pointment of a receiver for the World
Publishing Company, which publishes
the Martinsburg Daily World aud TIE
weekly Statesman-Democrat and Herald.
The majority of the stock is owned by
COL Stuart w. Walker and State Senator
Gray Silver. Mr.. Hoifheins himSefowns
81 500 of the stock OF the company.
Several years ago he sold to the company
the Daily World and the weekly Herald,
OF which ne was the owner. He was TO
get $1,000 cash for the property, but as a
matter of fact he obtained only about
ST 600 in cash, and agreed to take $4,000
IN stock, though he has not been able to
get possession of the stock. MIR. Hott-
helms alleges that the company is wholly
insolvent, owing large sums TO the Mer-
genthaler Linotype Company, the GoSS
Printing Press Company and the Bur
roughs Adding Machine Company. lie
therefore asks for receiver 10 conduct
the business until il can be sold to advan-
tage. The publishers of the World do
not seem to be much agitated about the
suit, and say that business will go on just
the same.

THE BuCKETsHop REVIVAL.

The reported anxiety in stock exchange
circles in New York City to wipe out the
reawakening bucketshop business in the
territory of northern New York and
parts of New England can serve a dou-
BILE purpose if it is to act as prod to-
ward eliminating the business. First, it
win serve to protect hundreds of people
who are foolish enough to believe that
from their far-away view of the market
they can buck the game successfully and
without being singed numerically; and,
second, it will preserve the good name OF
regular stock exchange business as that
name comes to the more rural sections
of the country. 1t is true that much of
the bad repute which is attached to deal
ing in stocks is due to the chance in
formation which the general public has
secured from reports OF bucketshop deal
ing with all its likelihood of lambshear-
ing; the people, hearing of complete ex-
termination of slender fortunes of the
dabbler in the bucketshop, with the con-
sequent misery, have cursed the game
and lay it all to the parent source OF
stock dealing in New York City. In
that way, distrust of Wall street and its
branches develops throughput the coun
try and the stock exchange circles of
the metropolis have to suffer in good
name whether they be culpable or not.
Hence, it will be move to aid itself if
the New York Stock Exchange, through
its individuals or organizations, carries
through move to eliminate the bucket
shop business in the territory most inn
mediately connected with New York. A
good name goes long way, and Wall
street cannot afford to have its name
dragged down through agencies in which
it is not really interested.
