MAKES BIG PROFIT
ON EXCHANGE SEAT
Edward Pepper Bought in 1879
for S15.OO0-Sells at $4,000.

The sale OF the Stock Exchange seat
Of Edward Pepper last week marked
the passing from membership Of one
of tho famous forty" who bought
their seats in 1879. Mr.. Pepper paid
only $4,000 for mis- seat and has just
sold II for $4,000, realizing a profit
OF. the two transactions of $4,000.
Concerning the period in which Mr..
Peppers membership was obtained
Robert Losing Niles, the Stock Ex-
change historian. wrote in 1914:
"In December. 1879, to provide funds
for the erection OF new building,
forty memberships were offered TO
competitive sealed bids, which brought
an average OF about $4,000. This
brought the total membership 70 LOO,
at which figure il has ever since re
manned.
Edward Pepper was the highest bid
der and secured the first seat, paying
$4,000 for IL. The lowest seat was
purchased by James Barnes, who paid
S13,450 and was at that time the young
est member Of the exchange. OF these
forty memberships the Alpha and the
Omega Mr.. Pepper and Mr.. Barnes,
are with George Arents at this date
the only survivors"
Mr.. Pepper, with his son-in-law. Sid
ney VI. Sternbach, and Arthur Pepper,
conducted the brokerage firm Of Pop
per s. Sternbach Il was through this
concern that the late James X. Keene
carried out some Of the most brilliant
Of his speculative coups.

gone. that "he was tired Of her" and
intended 20 transfer his affections 10
more congenial woman. He offered
to permit his wife 20 remain ms mis-
tress Of his home. This allegation.
if proved, might be important in

Kerfoot, whose late wife was a sister
Of Hunter, WAS Hunters classmate az
Columbia College. Kerfoot answered
the alienation suit by saying no afec-
