BRICE’S BTART TO WEALTH.
A Telegraph Operator’s Blunder Made
the Senator-Elect a Fortune.
From the Chicago Herald,
A year or so after Mr. Calvin S. Brice
had been made attorney of Foster’s rail
road, the Fosters concluded that, as the
read didn’t pay, they would extend it down
through Fostoria, their own town, to a
junction with some trunk line, and then
trv and sell it out. They did this, but the
construction of the road nearly swamped
them. They built it with bonds and stocks
secured by their individual credit, and by
the time they got to Fostoria the Foster
shin was carrying a frightful load. Both
stocks and bonds were listed on the New
York Stock Exchange, and both were
nearly worthless. The stock sold as low as
per share.
Matters ran along a few months, when
all at once things began to boom in north
western Ohio. Oil was discovered, the
Hocking Valley coal fields came into prom
inence, new aud great resources began to
reveal themselves, and right at the same
time railway values all over the country
took a sharp visa in Wall street. The Ohio
roads were all very strong, and Fosier’s de
preciated securities weut up with the rest.
The owners of the road made a calculation
that if they could unload their huge blocks
of stock at sl9 they would get out whole.
The stock had got up from $7 to sll, and
though it seemed like a forlorn hope, they
sent Attorney Brice to New York with a
truiiaful of securities aud orders to watch
the market and feed it out whenever the
upset figures were reached. The boom
lasted over a mouth and finally the stock
in the Foster road got up to sl9 and S2O,
with a stiff demand. Brice then telegraphed:
“Stock is up to S2O. but I think going
higher. What shall I do?
“Now here is where the fun comes in,”
continued the jfriend of Mr. Brice. “Just
about tins time Charley Foster was setting
up a deal in Stark county to knock out the
democrats in that district, and Foster had
sent Cien. Gibson up to Cauton to arrange
the details. On the very day that Fos er
got Brice’s telegram from New York about
the stock he also gotone from Gibson, which
read: ‘Can do nothing without you. Better
come up a day.’ Foster, who was then in
Columbus, went into the Neil house to reply
to the dispatches. To Brice he wrote: ‘Sett
’em all out quick as you can.’ To Gibson
he wrote: ’Do nothing more till I come.’
“New, the amiable lady operator at the
Neil house —she is not here now, for she
afterward got $5,000 for her blunder—got
these messages mixed. Gen. Gibson was
flabbergasted to get a message instructing
him to sell out anybody or anything, and
would not reply to the message, but started
for home, muttering that if Charley Foster
wanted any dirty work done he could do it
himself. Brice, in New York, who got the
message ‘Do nothing moro till 1 come,’ of
course sat down and waited. Meanwhile
the Wall street movement increased in im
portance, and the whole market seemed on
the rampage.
“The stock that Brice was watching and
had a trunkful to throw on the market kept
on climbing. Brice Heard no more from
Foster, and the latter naturally supposed
Brice was obeying orders and selling. He
was doing nothing of the kind; he was
waiting for Foster to come.
"Matters ran along for a week or ten
days, and the Foster stocks were quoted at
37. Brice then telegraphed: ‘Think it is
time to let go. Are you coming on V To
say that Foster was puzzled and astonished
doesn’t express it. Then followed a tele
graphic correspondence which explained
every thing, and Brice began to unload. The
deal was so strong, though, and the boom
had been so admirably worked, that he Bold
nearly three-fourths of the capital stock of
the road at from $37 to $45. It was a great
piece of financiering. Not only did the
Festers clear themselves, but they netted
something like $2,000,000 besides. And that
deal was worked by their young sl,ooo-a
-year attorney, Cal Brice.
“And what did they do for the young
financier?” was asked.
“That is another thing that has never
been published, but it was very handsome.
Charley Foster wentmnd bought $.500,000 in
4 14 P®r cent bonds, had them registered in
the name of Mrs. Calvin S. Brice and sent
them to the lady, with his comp iments.
But Brice was spoiled then for the law. He
liked finance, he liked railroading; he felt
he was intended for great enterprises. But
he was hampered; he had no money. His
fortune, or rather his wife’s, was of no avail
to help him in his ambitious sbemes.
“One day he said to Mrs. Brice: ‘My
dear, $500,000 the way we have it is about
as good as 5 cents. Let us sell those bonds
and let me do something with the money.’
Mrs. Brice made a tremendous kick. Air.
Brice coaxed and teased, and finally Mrs.
Brice went to Charlay Foster aud begged to
know what to do. Fos er winked to him
self, and with a grave face told her it was
a wife’s duty to obey her husband. ‘Be
sides,’ said Mr. Foster, ‘there is a little
scheme on foot by which I think we can
make some money, and 1 don’t wa it Cal to
be loft out for lack of means. You had
better let bim have the bouds. I don’t
think he will lose them.’ And so he got
them, ar.d the whole amount and half as
much more borrowed money, went into the
Nickel Plato deal, and.out of that deal Cal
Brice made $1,500,000.
NOT DEAD ,BTJT SLEEPING.
The Strange Case of a Young Woman
Near Kansas City,
From the SI. Louie Republic.
Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 25.—There is a
sleeping girl at thehomeof a farmer named
Carpenter, six miles south of West Port,
that has puzzled the atteuding physicians
f-r the past nine days. No case is recorded
in the hetory of the oldest practitioners in
Kansas City that is exactly like it. Her
slumber is not like one in a peaceful trance,
but is agitated, like that of a person in the
throes of the nightmare. For the past nine
days she has been plunged into this strange
somnolent condition, during which she
sometimes beats herself on the head and
breast, and utters inc > erent and unintelli
gible exclamations. Chicken or beef broth is
poured down her throat when she opens her
mouth, an 1 by this means she is kept alive.
The girl’s name is Anna Parker, and she
has been working as a domestic in the
family of Mr. Carpenter for a year or more.
■She has had brief fits of drowsiness before,
but none of them have lasted as long as this
one. The atteuding physicians are com
pletely nonplussed over the case, and it is
expected the unnatural sleep will be fol
lowed by death.

Five arrests were reported at police bar
racks at 1 o’clock this morning. One of the
prisoners was a white boy for stealing a
monkey.
The mayor had twenty-three prisoners

five for disorderly conduct, one for at
tempting to rescue a prisoner from the
arresting officer, two for gambling, one for
carrying concealed weapon--, one for
larceny, and one charged with committing

THE JESUP LYNCHING.
The Mayor States the Offenses of Those
Who Were Lynched.
Jescp, Ga., Feb. I. —Editor Morning
News; In your issue of Jan. 31 I notice
some errors under an editorial headed
“Bring Them to Justice,” and looking upon
your journal as one which does not wish to
circulate errors or misrepresent facts, I
hope you will allow space for a correct
statement. You state that “there was no
reason to think that the two men, or either
of them, aided or abetted the desperado
Brewer. They were in jail for some minor
offenses, and, if we are not mistaken, one
of them was it mere boy, and the other was
not more than bulf-witted. They were shot
to dea h in cold blood, and, if justice is
done, those who murdered them will be
punished as severely as the law will per
mit.”
There were reasons, and not alone reasons,
but proof, that the parties referred to did
aid and abet Brewer. Will Hopps was ar
rested on Monday before by Marshal Barn
hill for assaulting his father, who was then
sick in bed, and ho said he would have Mr.
Barnhill killed before Saturday night.
When Mars ial Barnhill went to assist in
arresting Brewer this unoffending Will
Hopps followed him, armed with a pistol,
and after Mr. Barnhill was killed, as he lay
dead upon the ground, Will Hopps
fired upon bis dead body, and tnis
was the minor offense charged against Will
Hopps. The other negro was arrested com
ing out of the swamp where Brewer and his
posse wero ambushed, and he would not
surrender until fired upon, and was stub
born and defiant after being arrested, it is
natural for those at a distance to hear many
false reports, and we regret that the Morn
ing News has been misinformed. There
were other prisoners in jail who were
charged with minor offenses, but they were
not molested. Bv inserting this in your
columns you will correct a wrong impres
sion, aud justice to all demands its insertion.

Mayor of Jesup.
