in prqportion , na great to the man who

No matter what , may be the immediate
1 course of the market , there can be no
' I question that the center of interest will
bo in tim Villard stocks. Many uncoizi-
pliinontary things are said about these
scuritiea , but , as usual , some of
th' mmt important arc overlooked
- by the majority of people. After the
cole&sal junketing expedition , which
must have cost the Northern Pacific a
pretty penny , Wall street was not nunat-
7.irally surprised to find that retrenchment
'was the order of the day. Vice Presi.
dent Oakes has gone out into the sno
west to reduce expense , at least such is
the ostensible reason of his departure ,
though some unkind people are hinting

and several accidents have occurred on
the road , owing to the reduction in
ieflicicncy of the switchmen. Tiia there
s something in'th o reports is proved
by the caustic letter written by General
Haupt , who han been general nianiger of
] te road since 1881 , and who has just ro-
\ iiignod his office rather than. hold it and
) o unable to perform his duties efficiently.
Probably the president of a railroad
never received a more scathing rebuke
1t9IIi lu $ subordinates than is coil-
. . tainod in General ITaupt's letter when
ie says : "i : have received from you in.
iitruction.s to curtail expenses in every
department , to .diBcontiltuo the work in
progress , and to discharge employos who
bavoaorved the company efhiciently. The
- restrictions that have boon placed upon
ts general manager are of such a nature
that I cannot sea how it is possible to con.
tinue in management , and secure resultn
that will beat the same time creditable to
myself and satisfactory to the stock.
Ji'4ders. " When a man gives up a lucra-
41 tWo and important office for sUch reasons
as those , it is evident that things must ho
in a very bad way indeed.

Wall street has beeii expecting for
some time a statoinent of the fiuiancial
hOttiOn of the Oregon Transcontinental
cinnpany. The date of its isuo has boon
poatponod from day to day aiid it is now
whispered that several of the hroininent
bankers interested in that company have
refused to sIgn or in any way to endorse

the concern was Iegarded by the public

'Villard stocks has directed public atten.
thou to oiio point which ought to be von.
tilated thoroughly , Is the president of a
company R1)1oifltCd , as a trustee of the
atockholdors , or as thto speculative nomi-
flee of a fov Wall street operatoral Of
course every one knows that a man like
Mr. ittissehl Sage becomes a director in
a railroad cotnpzuiy or a bank
merely to have his information
5)1 months ahead of every vne else ,
RflI to be able to ninke out Ins puts and
calls accordingly. But it seems as if the
president of a railroiul1 at all evcut , if
not thu directors , should have other aims
than personal notoriety or gain.
