FIRST TEN MEN OF WALL STREET DID NOT KNOW When Started Stork Ex change I 'nder Button wood Tree l.ittle Knew How It W oulil (?rim SET NEW KECOIIDS Hulls and B. *ui> S?*t iNi'w Standards in Saturday's Irudinu Session and Is Still Shooting lly ItOWi.AM) \V(M)|) lCc?)n?H|; IMS. By Ihr A<mnt?) New York. Oct. 20. ? Tin* ten men who started New York's first slock exchange under n Wall mi reel huttonwood tree u century ami a half nmi would stand speec li lies with amazement could liny return to "tile street" today and watclt the antics of their 1100 successors us they "shoot at" rec ords for total transactions In u day. Ami speechless they mlf.ht well remain, for their comment would he k wallowed up without a trace in i he meat throaty roar that ris es from tin* pit when- the "btillH" and "ie-ars" cavort today. They Met a new record for all time Saturday when in a two-hour trading session they d?-alt. In 1 6H2.55il share* of stork. And to day Willi that record fresh in their minds Ihey are "shooting" at the record all lime. Met on the historic April .SO. lfiOI. the day of the Northern Pacific panic, a total of S.28 1.22fi shares were bought and sold. It doesn't matter greatly to these shouting, clawing. gesticu lating hundreds who mill about the 20 "trading posts" where slork are bought and fold, wheth er the market goes up or down. Just so it goes fast they are hap py. for ihey pet their profit. In commissions, either way. Indeed, their happiest days are when (lie market is fluctuating wildly, for ??very fluctnalion inspires some customer with a desire to huy or sell something. Old traders in the street were surprised at the comparative calm witii which today's market opened. They had expected a veritable ava lanche of selling orders from n scared trading public after the had break the market experienced Just before the close on Saturday. Th?* explanation of experts was that the hie operators, fearing lest Ihey had scared the dear public too badly in their efforts to "un load" toward the Saturday clone had created a diversion by push ing up pi Ices of such leading rail toad stork ? as New York Central. Atchison. It. & O. and Southern. This maneuver had Its effect for a lime, but the market had not been i mining long before It be came apparent that the move had been only partly successful. Ily 1 1 o'clock the stock exchange pit had worked Itself Into consider able of a bedlam albeit an order ly bedlam in which every shout and gesture had a meaning all Its own. Whether or not today was to bring a new record was something concerning which th?? oldest trader on the floor was the least willing to express an opinion. Hut there was a pretty general feeling that a record day and marl*'- several of tin nt. was Just around the cor ner Which means general re joicing all through the street. For Christmas Is coming and when Wall street has had a prosperous year it distributes bonuses with a lavish hand. ?MI \ I N I m i x K Kit TO AHIMiKKM IMMTORM A distinguished speaker, in the plfMI of |)r, W.

On the path to the still, the dry , agents found five bags of coal, ob ; vlously used as fuel at the plant. Itoach claimed to have served on ! ly as fireman for the outfit. He 1 said he returned recently from i Pennsylvania, and helped nt the Mill because he couldn't find much work elsewhere, and needed the ' little tliut he could muke. ANOTHER FLOWER FOR MRS.

"They ? have plenty of good thing* to en: for the prisoners, and give them; aH kinds of opportunities for rec j reatlon. It Isn't like a prison, ai all.

"The prisoners are divided Into three classes. I whs Informed. The worst ones are confined In dun geons until they are willing to h< - have themselves. The others. 1 classified according to their be havior, are given light work. They do not wear prison stripes, but are dressed In suits made of blue over all material. They look healthy and mostly contented enough. You'd nevei take them for prison er?." Messrs. Ilurgess and Seymour, left here Thursday night to take May to Atlanta. They aaid he gave them no trouble on the way. but after bearing glowing reports of the prison fro?i people aboard the train, appeared decidedly anxious to get there and observe condi tions for himself.

Moreover, such subscriptions are of Utile or no value to tho advertiser, and therefore they are not sought after by The Ad vance In this canrpaiKn. That Is why no votes will be Issued for them and no commissions will he allowed on them. This same rule has been in force in the. last two subscrip tion campaigns put on by this newspaper and explains largely why ground gained In those I wo campaigns was held, while ?10 per cent of the uronnil gained In the first campaign was lost.
