Kcctless and Ignorant Operators Are

EEAL CAHTAI- IS WHAT IS XECESSAKT
fSrtCIAI. TIXEGKAM TO THE DISPATCH. 1
Xew York, Sept. 13. Matthew Marshall
reviews the financial and speculative situa
tion for to-morrow's Sun as follows:
There Is no disputing the fact that the
mass of operators and brokers on the Stock
Exchange have made up their minds that
the recent advance In stocks is going to he
maintained, and that prices are hound to go
much higher than they arc now. Still, they
have their misgiving, which shows itself in
their impatience with the expression of a
contrary view - Even much mild suggestions
of a possible disappointment of their ex
pectations have been received with some
thing very much like anger, and only this
last week I have been twitted by more than
ono or my friends with what ther are
pleased to call the failure of my prophecies,
weeks ago, in regard to the market.
Considering the aains I always take to
cxnres my opinions modestly, and to give
the grounds for them, so that my readers
mav be able to estimate their value for
themselves, 1 think it is veiy nnkind to
poke fun at me when events do not cor
roborate my Judgment.
LESS GROUND FOR JOKING.
In the present case there Is less ground
thaninany othcufor making merry at my
expense, since my forecasts have been con
fined to saying that there was an overstock
of new fecurities on sale, which would
probably have to be reduced in Drice to I
attract purchasers, and to doubting the im
mediate realization of the good results
almost universally expected from our
abundant harvests" in the shape of copious
arrivals of gold and ot large orders from
Europe for the purchase of out securities.
A little gold, it is true, has arrived, or is on
its way, and it is averted that London
operatoi s are buying our stocks and bonds,
but for the lRSt few clays a halt has occurred
in the upward movement and the entire
list or speculative fancies closed on Satur
day at :i marked decline fiom the highest
point of the week. It is too soon, therefore,
to eav that my judgment uns entirely wrong,
and it may j et prove to have been substan
tially correct.
no bold srrctriATiov.
The feature of the present situation which
strikes me as more noteworthy than the
scattering advance of particular stocks. Is
the absence of any prominent and trusted
leader of speculation for a rise. Conse
quently operators are acting each for him
self, and with the timidity and hesitation
which mark the individual who does not
feel tho encouragement of a crowd. Few
men have confidence enough in their own
judgment to buy or to sell upon that judg
ment alone They want somcuodj- to tell
them to do this or to do that, and as soon as
they have done It they -want that somebody
to tell them whether "to undo it or to let
it alone. Thev find it easy enough to buy,
but then, if what they have bought docs not
goup In price and thus confirm their good
opinion of it, and particularly if it falls ever
so little, they become nervous and discour
aged. A bold, self-reliant man, therefore, who
will take old of stocks courageously, and
not hesitate to advise evcrvbodv to do the
ame as he doe--, and who will hold the mar
ket up by main strength for a few days.mav,
in cirenmstrnces like tho present, confi
dently reckon upon securing a following
which will carry prices up and up, until on
tho momentum thus acquiiedhe can sell out
nnd leave his following to take care of
thcm--cl es.
ms puorrrs are stjbe.
Of course, as soon as they discover that he
has deserted them they become panic
stricken and tumble out their purchases as
recklessly as they bought them, but in tho
meantime tho market has had its boom and
the manipulator of the boom has gathered
in his pioflts. I have seen no indications of
anv t-uch performance latoly, and for that
reason I do not believe th.it the recent ris
is going to develop immediately to a wild
rush.
Indeed, I rather think that pretty much
evcrj bodv who was disposed to buy stocks
for a rise has already bought all he can, and
is now waiting for other buyers to come in
and take his purchases off his hands. There
Is a story ot a schoolmaster in a Gorman vil
lage who persuadedall tho people in it to
follow him to the top of a high hill one night
when the moon was shining brightly in tho
heavens for the purpose ol all shouting to
gether, and thus making the man in the
moon hear them and shout back. He gave
the signal for the united outcry, but, to his
disgust, 't w.ts followed bj- absolute silence.
Kverv one of thp crowd had listened to hear
his neighbor hhout, and no ono uttered a
sound himself.
1'os.sibly the crowd who have lately been
During stocks in all street mav, like the
German villagers, bo waiting to hear from
their neuihbon., and thus there will be quiet
where lively excitement has oeen expected.
KIlA.Ii CAPITAL NEEDED.
Whatever fluctuations in prices may be
brought about by gambling purchases and
sales, nothing can obliterate the everlasting
truth that a healthy and nennauent advance
in financial securities can be produced only
by a surplus of real capital seeking Invest
ment, just as a permanent depression is
caused only bv a deficiency of such capital.
It is an equally incontrovertible truth that
the market price of a security will in
evitably be decided in the long run by the
amount and the certainty of the income it
j Jelds.
It is tho investor who ultimately Axes the
value of an investment, hile the speculator
who seeks to anticipate his judgment by
buying or selling on tho hazards of an un
known future docs so at tho peril of failing
to secure the approval of the investor's
judgment at tho last. Many men have been
sagaciom enough or lucky enough to buy at
low prices apparently worthless securities,
which have subsequently pioved to be valu
able as Interest or dividend payers, but
until the event confirmed their good opin
ion, they weie at best only skillful specu
lators. As to tho mass who buy and sell as the
whim takes them, or because they are told
by other people to buy or to sell, they might
better stake their money on cards or dice.
The operation would be much more quickly
performed, and with less cost for cammis
hlontand interest.
SPECULATING OS KISK.
Now it Is possible, for example, for an out
sider, not familiar with tho railroad busi
ness In general and with the business of
each railroad in particular, to Judge intelli
gently ot the value of Atchison, or Erie or
Union Pacific stock. He maysaythnt tho
earnings of these companies, owing to the
good crops, are likely to be very large the
next few months, but suppose they are. The
crops next year may be as bad as they were
last vcar and what then! TTiiIasq tho mirn-
cates of higherprices are prepared todemon-1 '
Millie utiii wv imve eumreu upon an era ol
prosperity hich is to last, not one or even
two years, but a frerici of years, they are
building upon saud. The investor is not go
ing to come in to take their purchases off
their hands until he sees more clearly than
he can see now that ho Is making a good
bargain.
I do not deny that a certain amount of risk
and certain fluctuations of value are In
separable from even tho best investments.
Alter taking every precaution and making
every inquiry, a purchaser is liable to disap
pointment in the results of his best con
sidered action. Tho income he gets may nut
prove so largo as ho expected, nor the se
curity for it so good. Changes In the money
market, too, may compel him, when he
wants to sell, to accept a lower price than
he gave, and sometimes unfoieseen calami
ties may destroy the Investment entirely.
MUST ACCEPT RESULTS.
All these are contingencies which a rea
sonable man counts upon and in which ho
accepts tho outcome with resignation. He
had to do something with his money, and if,
after doing the best ho could, ho loses some
or all of it, he need not repine. But the man
who buvs a thing about which he knows no
more than that it sells for so much to-day
and that he hoped w ithout reason to sell it
fora little mote to-morrow, has no such
consolation.
The latest illustrations or tho risks which
buyers or speculation stocks unwittingly
take are the Union Pacific Railway Company
and Richmond Terminal Company. I ven
ture to say that not one in ten of the pur
chasers of Union Pacific a month ago knew,
what since moved to be the fact, that tho
Union Pacific Railway Company was then
in imminent danger of going into tho hands
of a receiver. The peril has been averted
for the present, but not completely, and, at
the best the company has secured only three
years' resnite. The stocc has, nevertheless,
risen four or five points, but why, I cannot
conceive Now, the Richmond Terminal
Company has suddenly been discovered to
be in a similar condition to the Union
Pacific It owes a floating debt of $9,000,000
and more, and it can only be saved trom a
receivership by the forbearance of its cred
itors, as tho Union Pacific was.
EFFECT OP THE THING.
The effect of this dlsolosure has been to
depress the company's stock, but, as usual, I
expect to see it rise again as soon as the Im
mediate danger has passed. How many
more corporations, largo and small, are in
the precarious situation In which the Union
Pacific and the Richmond Terminal have
been discovered to be, only events, will show.
Enough of theni are, at all events, in the
money market as borrowers to keep the
rates of interest well up, and the creditors
oruiany of them would much prefer to be
paid the principal, if they could get it, than
the interest.
Until these embarrassments are removed
there can bo no settled confidence In a sun
shiny mture. That they will be removed
ultimately, and that the proceeds of the sales
of our crops will be tho chief contributing
element, not only to this result, but to a
general business prosperity, is very proba
ble, but Rome was not built in a day, and
until chickens aro batched It Is not safe to
coun t them.

And that's where our country cousins show their wisdom. The
nearer they come to our store the bigger get their dollars, and, when
they're once-fairly inside, every dollar of theirs assumes the purchasing
power of two. Our friends from Western Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio
and West Virginia recognize the fact that when THEY PAY US A
VISIT, THE VISIT PAYS THEM. But this isn't all, for they save
not only money but time as well. Here, under one roof, can be found
everything, in the largest possible variety, to clothe man, woman and
child, from sole to crown", while our Mammoth House Furnishing
Goods Department supplies all the needs of house and kitchen. Then,
everything is arranged with a view to making shopping at our store as
pleasant as possible. After you have made your purchases you are not
bothered with bundles and packages. We will check them for you and
you can call for them when ready to leave the city, or we will send
them to any railroad depot in Pittsburg or Allegheny, or, if you prefer it,
we will
Express Them Free of Charge Direct to Your Homes,
Where you will find them on your return. In short, we will make your
shopping at our establishment not only a matter of profit for you, but
pleasure and comfort as well.
THAT BANKDUFT 911 IF SUES
Is Still Drawing Immense Crowds Daily.
And no wonder, for never since calf and kid furnished footwear for
the human race have sound, solid shoes been sold at such ruinously
low prices. They are the goods which, as nearly everybody knows, we
bought at the
Sheriff's Sale of Sclmiertz & Gos Stock,
Held in This City (43 Fifth Ave.) Three Weeks Ago.
All who yet intend to avail themselves of this GENUINE Bankrupt
Sale of shoes we would most urgently advise to come at once. Already
the sizes of some lines have become broken, and, in a few more days,
only odds and ends will be left. Be wise and come quickly.
