ATRICKOFWALLSTREETi
How the Captains of Industry
Secured a Favor.
SHREWD MOVE 01 MONET POWEE ,
Flattered Onr Granger Secretary of
the Treasury Into Throwing Open
to Them the Nation's Money Vaults.
Law Stretched to Aid Bankers.
When a granger gets to meddling *
with a stock ticker , trouble usually re
sults. When a country lawyer or bank
er is introduced to the mysteries of
"high finance" of the Wall street va
riety , he is likely to be an easy mark
for our "captains of industry , " as Pres
ident Roosevelt cnlls them.
Captains of industry of the Wall
street stripe are like three card nioiite
men , the only difference being in de
gree. They are all gamblers trying to
make something out of nothing.
When President Roosevelt discov
ered Mr. Shaw , he was a banker in a
small town on the Iowa prairies. He
knew the price of hogs , and he had a
keen appreciation of the advantage of
good crops and the prosperity that fol
lowed when nature showered her fa
vors upon that fertile state.
When Mr. Shaw was selected as sec
retary of the treasury , his first step
after being sworn in was to visit the
subtreasury in New York. That gov
ernment building is in close proximity
to Wall street , and when the bankers
and slock jobbers heard tliaf Shaw
was in town they called on him and
showered him with invitations to ban
quets and entertainments. He held
conferences with the loading finan
ciers , and a programme was fixed up
to aid the waning fortunes of what is
known as the money market.
The bankers said their stock of mon
ey was fast bciug depleted by the calls
for money from the west "to move the
crops. " This is the usual annual sub
terfuge for a raid on the United States
treasury. The west was simply call-
Ing for the money its banks had on de
posit in New York , which the New *
York bankers had loaned to the Wall
street gamblers.
Secretary Shaw , from his experience
as a country banker , knew that this
fiction of Wall street furnishing the
money to move the crops was merely
a blind to cover up the operations that
Were to transfer the treasury surplus
to his new found friends. He was
anxious to aid them and "save the
country" and his party , for Shaw is a
partisan.
The Chicago Chronicle , which cannot
be said to be antagonistic to the money
power , in its issue of Oct. - gave a full
account of the connection of the ad
ministration with the New York bank
ers , in which it said :
"The secretary of the treasury ex
tended a favor to these men , which ,
it is admitted , saved Wall street from
a disastrous panic. The favor was all
the more valuable because the secreta
ry was compelled to put aside some of
the most sacred traditions of the treas
ury department and place construc
tions on laws that may not hereafter
be sustained by the courts. The favor
was not the secretary's. It was the
administration's. Wall street can
charge it directly to President Roose
velt. "
From this it will be seen that the
extraordinary aid to Wall street that
has stretched the law in favor of Mor
gan and the trusts to the point "that
may not hereafter be sustained by the
courts" was a well concocted scheme
to aid the stock gamblers at the ex
pense of the people.
The country banker who had hardly
warmed his chair as the secretary of
the treasury had been introduced to
the Wall street game and had at once
fallen in love with it. Perhaps he had
a tip in return on how the market
was going. Like many an unwary
granger seeking gold bricks in Gotham
he may later be a wiser but a sadder
man.

Last Saturday the E'litor in com

o id hearted men despite the posi
tions thev hold wbicn require of
them severity in manv cases in which
they areperforming a duty and tntist
overlook immediate surroundings in
the endeavor to bring about a great
result. Yet we found thase men gen
ial sociable hospitable generous
broad minded men who could be royal
entertainers or stern commanders as
the occasion demanded. Lieut
Enochs escorted us to Major Brush's
office where we found him busy at. his
desk , a man ef mature years but of
sound physique and many days of good
service yet before him. Capt. O'Neil
is a hale hearty man who enjoys
health in any climate as his good na
ture.1 Uugh would convidce the most

thinks this is the best climate in the

Donald and Straat are young men of
sound health and good habits who
will in time reach higher .positions.
Dr. Shockley is a young man of
more than common ability as a sur

who says he can now enjoy 5 hours of
exercise in the open air and thinks
this-the finest climate in the world
and that there is no better place for
invalids to recruit lost health. The
Major came here an invalid but
walks aronnd now and enjoys life
