HISTORY BUILDERS.
A Lucky Misleading of the Cable
Code.
BY DIR. +. j. EDWARDS.

"A year or two after Roswell P.
Flower retired from the Office of Gov
ernor of New York, one of the most
extraordinary incidents of his entire
career happened. and 1t was one with
which | was familiar"
In this way, the late Norman B.
Ream began a narration to me of an
anecdote which he said could not be
matched by any other incident of like
character, based upon an error, of which
he had ever heard.
II was sitting with Governor Flow
er in the London office OF J. p. Nor
gan one morning when he of sud-
den called my attention to cable
gram which had just come from New
York" continued Mr.. Ream. He said
that a certain stock in which he was
interested was quoted at ninety-three.
He was excited, saying that he would
send a cable dispatch to New York to
buy a large block of this stock. The
governor asked me to get the code
book and look up code for him while
he attended to another matter.
II did that and the governor put
into the code a dispatch which he in
tended to read Buy ten thousand
shares at ninety-three. one thousand
on each drop of one-eighth OF a point
Having codifed this message, II was
Immediately cabled from Mr.. Morgan's
office.
"A day or two later Governor Flow
er sailed from Liverpool for home. He
was on the ocean for about eight
days When he arrived in New York,
he was Mortified to learn that the bro
kers had translated the code incor-
rectly. They thought It read: Buy
ten thousand shares at ninety-three
and then a thousand-lot shares for
each drop OF an eighth of a point The
stock dropped and the brokers bought
until they became frightened at the
amount of stock that was on their
hands. There was no wireless tele-
graph at that time, so that they could
not communicate with Governor Flow
er. TheySstopped buying when they had
accumulated all that they dared buy.
within a few hours after Governor
Flowers return and before he was
able to do stroke of business. this
stock took a sudden jump. 1t rapidly
scared and the governor was able to
get out with a handsome profit, the
transaction constituting the chief part
not been for this mistake of the brok-
ers they would have bought ten thou
sand shares instead of forty thousand,
and had IL not been for the sudde n
turn the governor would probably have
been in very serious difficulties. 1t
was, he told me, the luckiest mistake
that he had ever made, or that had
ever been made on his account"

Professional Outlook

The professional outlook on the New
York list is reflected in a summary OF
yesterdays session wired w B. Hibbs
K Co. by their New York correspondent:
While the list was irregular in spots
the tone was firm. Motor shares, ap-
Darently, have supplanted issues of other
kinds, as the conspicuous feature OF
strength Combination and deal talk is
being heard in all directions and the
large earnings Of the majority of cor
porations appear to establish a rather
fair Foundation for the current bullish
tactics. The furious pace which has been
established, however. can hardly be ex-
pected to be prolonged for an indefinite
period. The naval losses on both sides
are revealed to have been greater than
anticipated yesterday, and it is quite evil
dent that new factor has been injected
into the situation of a sort that is likely
to crop up every now and then as a dis

Streets View of Battle.

Wall Street accepted the big naval bat
tie as promising a prolongation OF the
war and renewed land offensives BY the
allied governments. The following state
ment was made by a prominent Wall
Street operator:
Considering the resources on both
sides. 1t looks like an even break ip the
naval battle though the German plotting
and seamanship must have been superior.
The question that naturally suggests itself
is. why with victory In its hands as
claimed, the German feet returned to
Kiel without finishing Its work. II will
not be wise to look on this battle as the
forerunner of early peace. 1t will. prob
ably mean redoubled efforts in France
and Belgium on the part of the allies

Ing. The near approach of the conven-
tion will doubtless restrict dealings in the

of a sort which would warrant an alter

WOMEN SuFFRAGE

The Hughes female suffrage party
claim that their candidate has zone
back on his party platform and is in
favor of constitutional amendment
forcing all of the states to adont fe-
male suffrage This the plank in the
Rennblican platform on the subject:
The Republican Party reaffirminq
its faith in government of the people.
by the people. for the people. as A
measure of justice to one half the
adult peonle of the country. favors
the extension of the suffrage to wo-
men, but recognize the right of each
self"
The Democratic platform on the
same subject reads:
we recommend the extension Of
the franchise to the women of the
country bv the States upon the same
terms as to men"
The only difference in the platforms
seems to be few old catchpennv
platit1des which have heen injected
into the Republican plank.
