mm mi nt of it may if realized from the
fad that .luring the last month alone,
when tlic market wua already seem
ingly glutted, companies connected
with Nontli Africa ami Australia for
muling and other purposes were reg
istered at Somerset house with it capi
tal amount log altogether to more Ilian
million dollars. These were ex
clusive of tiie new liarualo hank, out
ot vflilch the former stowaway and
circus employe, already a multi-mill
iouaire, is said to iiave made .< million
dollars within tvsenty-four hours after
putting his scheme on the market.
A serious note of warning of tile
coming collapse Is ^ivcu in a thought
ful article In the Nineteenth <’eutury
from the pen of an obvious expert,
showing i hut the market for these
shares Is largely artificial, that its con
trol is in arbitrary, often unscrupu
lous, hands, und that the most favora
ble output, for next, year will not pay
iulei|iialc Interest upon the capital in
vested. lie gives some startling in
stances of the magnitude of the specu
lation. The uggregutc quotation of
Witwutersuiid shares, for instance, lias
risen from jfi.V),000,000 a year ago to
9750,000,000 now. Shures in certain
mines which actually iiave not paid a
far-tiling dlvideud have risen within a
few month* .i,0o0 per cent or more
above their face value are common.
More tiiuii a year ago a man familiar
with South African affairs said Unit
most of the shures ottered were us
high us they ought to be, but tiie ad
vance since would Iiave surpassed the
wi dest imaginations then.
The craze began in October, I »'•*I,
when speculation turned in tiie direc
tion of South African mines For some
years before that tiie public hud been
given little chance to speculate, for
good securities hud risen so high there
was no use in buying them In the hope
of another rise. America and Aus
tralia were in bud shape and tiie spec
ulators Unatly turned to South Africa
There was enough reul work und protit
in the mines to warrant it at llrst, and
some of the big tinancial houses of
1‘uris soon hecumc interested. Then
company after company was formed
und Moated. Fliiuneiul liou-es bought
the shares in many instances and then
when tiie boom began, split up their
holdings und sold certificates of own
ership. even us low us one-tenth of a
share, to tiie small purchasers. Kng

, opinion I* espressed here by certain
•l>ortit>g men I hut Corbett le buibimg
np a foundation to get out of hi* light
If possible. It wee noticed Hint to
•very newapeper men who Inter
viewed him. for lie tt talked only on
one subject, end that waa on the many
airing* that wara attached to the Pits
; allomone stake Kvery eon vernation
the pugilist Indulged In this subject
would promlaently bn brought for
ward by blm.
When It la taken Into consideration
that the attachment* against Kltssim
won*' money in Hwyer's bands were
! Issued more than a month ego and
CorbeU refra ned saying anything
about It at that time, give rise to the
suspicion that the conqueror of John
I,. Sullivan hue kept this as hi* last
card
Corbett very bluntly said that Fils*
•Immune would have to put unflO.bUO
In the stakeholder's bunds, without an
attachment tied to It, or he would not
tight. He claims that k it/slminon*
only has f.’.OOU of thn side bet up. Ilia
other $1,000 bring attached by the
Metropolitan Printing company and
Attorney Friend, formerly the Aua
tralian's lawyer. Corbett la claiming
I tint l-tiil lltvvcr Lfibl him lust before
he left New York that If Fie won he
would go I hut of I he side hat,
Corbett also says that lie will fight
Kit/simmona for the side bet alone,but
puts in the old proviso that aio.noo un
attached must tic put up.
Local sporting men are of the opin
ion that this provision of Corbett'*
will occasion considerable trouble be
fore October 31. Just why the chum
fllon is anxious to have the referee se
eded at this time cannot be learned.
Both Corbett and Ills manager, Killy
Hiady are clamoring for the referee
to be chosen Immediately, When
asked the difference It would make in
selecting ttie referee the day lie for*
the tight, they say that In such un Im
portant case us this the referee should
be Uuown several weeks ahead in or
der to give confidence to tho public.
The general feeling In New Orleans
Is that ttie tight will never tuke plan*.
