FRISCO SCANDAL
GMS WO BSE
WITH TBE
American fCredit Abroad in Dan
ger of Being Assassinated
by It.
'BY 8. C. FORBES.
The latest scandal in American
High Finance grows worse on closer
acquaintance. Nothing quite go bad
has oc/curred in years, America'
credit .abroad is in danger of being
assass Inated.
* • •
Let me assure the Government
that sin investigation of the St. Louis
& San Francisco Railroad, if it gets
at the real, full facts, will disclose
something worth the pains. I am not
spealting at random.
• • •
Thte proposed probe by the Inter
state, Commerce Commission is im
peratively demanded. BUT THERE
IS A LARGER PROBLEM IN
VOLJVED: THE COMMISSION
SHOULD HAVE JURISDICTION
OVF.VR RECEIVERSHIPS. MEN
WHO RUN A ROAD TO RUIN
SHOULD NOT BE LEFT IN
CHARGE WHEN THE CRASH
COMES. INVESTORS ARE EN
TITLED TO PROTECTION.
• • *
Frtiendly receivers used to be ap
pointed when banks failed, and de
positors seldom got any satisfac
tion, the funds usually going into
the pockets of the receivers, their
lawyer friends and other hungry
gentlemen during long-drawn-out,
go-as-you-please, leave-us-alone pro
ceedinos. Former State Bank Super
intendent Clark Williams had the
Legislature empower the Banking
Department to handle failed institu
tions, and the cost to depositors was
infinitesimal.
• « •
Could not the Interstate Com
merce Commision achieve similar
results with bankrupt railroads? Why
should this body be given almost un
limited control of solvent roads and
have not one word to say after dis
aster comet, when investors are in
urgent need of protection, when in
telligent, expert supervision is more
than ever necessary?
• • •
To allow President Winchell and
Director West, of the Frisco sys
tem. full sway in treating the thou
sand of investors who have been
caught in disaster was fraught with
danger, for it would stir up public
antagonism, public distrust and pub
lic suspicion that could not fail
to feed socialistic clamor. In
deed, a Socialist said to me yester
day: “This is fine. It shows that
the present capitalistic system is a
failure. These men wreck a prop
erty, and then they are allowed to
treat the sufferers —the security hold
ers as they like. Let’s have more of
these little deals, and our party will
get into the saddle sooner titan you
may expect. Government ownership
—a necessary steppingstone—is al
ready within sight.”
• • •
! ?sked B. F. Yoakum, chairman
of the Frisco road and its control
ing power, a few plain, courteous
que-.ticns.
••Si- eeks ago your company
gave French, investors assurances
that earnings were doing very well,
and that ycur maturing indebtedness
wou'd be taken care of." I said. ‘‘Can
you not explain, for the satisfaction
of all Interested, what has happened
since then to cause you to throw the
road into bankruptcy? . Don’t you
think the public are entitled to this
information?"
Mr. Yoakum said he did not care
to make any statement on the sub
ject.
"Did you notice that it is pro
posed to start an investigation by
the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion. Mr. Yoakum?"
Mr. Yoakum indicated that he had
no objection to any investigation.
Reports were again plentiful in
Wall Street. Spever 4 Co’s legal
representative is due from St. Louis
and a statement describing exactly
what preceded the sudden appoint
ment of receivers is expected. Friends
of this old-estab'ished hanking firm
are urging it to come forward with
a full explanation showing how it was
misled, how the management failed
to fulfill certain pledges and how the
application for receivers upset all pre
vious calculations. Speyer & Co.,
however, have so far made no official
statement further than that they were
not consulted about the appointment
of receivers. Later the whole inside
developments may be made known.
In the battle that is pending cer
tain reputations can not but be mor
tally wounded.
Extraordinary disclosures co n -
cerning the operations of the French
bankers who distributed the $3,000.-
000 Frisco bonds in Paris in April
are made in a communication I re
ceived last evening from a friend
in Pans who is in the inner circles
of finance there. This letter was
written before the receivership pro
ceed'ngs—a fact that makes it more
significant and prophetic.
THE FRISCO BONDS WERE
FLOATED IN PAR'S AT 91 AT
THE MOMENT THEY WERE
QUOTED IN NEW YORK AT 78 1-4.
WHEN THE NEW YORK QUOTA
TION WAS 65 3-4 THEY WERE

| COTTON GOSSIP |
NE¥V YORK. .Tune s.—The principal
feature of The market to-day was the
strength in July. Cone, Schill and Wa
ters purchased the option heavily, caus
ing the advance.
Marsh, Hentz, Myers and Montgom
ery were the leading sellers.
Sentiment continues very bearish.
• • •
The, market was extremely dull yes
terday. there being practically no out
side business. The only feature was a
little strength in July on buying by
waters, Hentz and Liverpool. This
near-month firmness held the new crops
steady, but there were no operations
In the latter of any significance. Some
of the gossip affecting July was that
Liverpool would take 10,000 bales more
out of the local stock, that a prominent
New Orleans operator here was arrang
ing to finance what uould be left of the
certificated supply and that there was a
short interest in July of 200,000 bales.
* * •
Those buying the near options are ap
parently selling the new crop.
♦ ♦ •
Sentiment continues bearish and no
advance of consequence is expected as
long as this feeling prevails. With the
favorable weather and crop advices
coming in, lower levels are predicted.
♦ • ♦
Liverpool continues to report firm ca
bles, with big sales. The English op
erators, however, have discredited the
bullish bureau report. The advance to
day was said to be based on rumors of
hot winds 1n Texas. Unless certain
sections of Texas receive good showers
the next few days the crop will
suffer materially.

NEW ORLEANS, June s.—The
weather map excellent, shows fair over
south-central belt, partly cloudy else
where. Nice scattered rains in North
west Texas, parts of Oklahoma, Arkan
sas. Alabama and Atlantics. Warm
temperatures will prevail. Indications
are for rain; cooler in Western States,

• • •
Memphis wires: “Showery and unset
tled weather is indicated for most parts
of cotton belt during next 24 hours.
Further light rains are reported from
Atlantic States, which is quite favora
ble.
• •
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says: “New’ Orleans declined and New
York advanced, the net result being the
practical restoration of the parity be
tween the two markets existing prior to
Friday, when the holidays began Most
everybody is bearish on favorable
weather, but in spite of the fact the
bears have predicted toboggan price
slides ever since last winter, the mar
ket continues to move along a well
beaten path, with the actual stuff hbid
ing its own in a confidence-generating
manner.
“Nevertheless, the spokesmen for the
bear i>arty are talking, with increasing
assurance, about the splendor of the
crop prospects, the rapid progress being
made, and the favorableness of the
weather when contrasted with the
weather during April and May last year,
and they now go even so far as to
prophesy a very early large movement
of new cotton. Only a short while ago
the talent was busily engaged in prov
ing to the world that while the chance
for a large crop had not been destroyed
by cold weather and by dry weather
the necessity for replanting had de
stroyed all chance for an early maturing
crop.”
• • •
A very reliable party writes from
San Antonio, Texas: “We are certain
ly having ‘growing weather’ here for
cotton, and where rains have been suf
ficient the plant Is doing nicely. There
is a section including all the country
between San Antonio and Beeville and
west of that line where no rain * fell
w hen we had our rains about the middle
of May and where crops are doing very
poorly <»n the whole the crop is still
very backward in this section and e
good rain would be of great benefit in
all of South and Southwest Texas.”
One of our most trusted corre
spondents from Georgia writes: “Do not
agree with the Government condition
report of this State. They state, how
ever, that it was only made up to May
25, <»r a little before, and at that time
we were badly in need of rain. We
have had ample rain since then, how
ever, and the weather is hot and favora
ble. Stands practically perfect, fields
chan and well cultivated, and while a
little late, possibly conditions Just now,
w ith a week rnore_ of clear weather to
complete rhdppibg odt, could scarcely
be more favorable.’’

Bulls Send Near Month Leaping
Up 3 to 5 Points at a Clip,
“Nothing Between.”
NEW YORK. June s.—Amid wild
scenes of excitement, shorts struggled
for July contracts during the last hour
of trading, when bulls grasped the op
portunity to “squeeze” this option. Hot
winds in Texas and Oklahoma w'ere
given as the main reason for the
‘squeeze.’’ Bidding was aggressive, but
offerings were practically nil. resulting
• n the net option jumping from the noon
level of 11.47 to 11.79. aggregating a net
gain of 32 points from last night’s close
The advance was recorded in jumps of
two. three and five points at the time,
“nothing between.” Attention was en
tirely discarded from other positions,
which held steady at the midday high
level, barely fluctuating a point during
the interval that the “squeeze” was be
ing operated. The bulls’ aim was true
ami was engineered to perfection.
The last sale mad on July was at 11.75
and the closing prices were 11.73-75. ag
gregating a net gain of 26 points from
last night's close. Other
showed net gains ranging from 9 to 32
points over the previous close
Spots were quoted 20 points higher
than the previous day.
Despite the fact that Liverpool has
discredited the low percentage given the
condition by the Government, rumors
are to the effect that ocean freight room
has been engaged for shipments of
fifteen thousand bales from the local
stock during June. This has caused a
material decrease in offerings.
During the forenoon prices worked a
shade lower than the early best, offer
ings became freer, based on advices
from Georgia saying that the Govern
ment figures are disbelieved. They
stated that the weather has been hot
and favorable since the report was
made up to May 25, and that chopping
is near completion and the crop could
scarcely be more favorable.
An extremely bearish report came in
from San Antonio. Texas

ST. LOUIS CASH QUOTATIONS.
CHICAGO. June s.—Scattered show
ers in some sections and good rains in
other parts of Kansas were the signal
for general selling at the opening this
morning, and while Rome strength was
shown at the first sales, there was a
slump almost immediately of ’4 to He.
There were reactions from the b»»st
prices reached. Northwestern receipts
were more than double those of a year
ago and the run at Winnipeg was much
heavier than for the seine day in 1912
Besides the additional moisture in the
Southwest there were reports from the
spring wheat country that the crop out
look there could fivt be improved upon
Corn was to ’4O lower and was
under some pressure becausg of the im
proved w’eather.
<>ats were to ’«c lower, and the
foelir.g was easier right after the open
ing, but it soon turned strong
There were fractional losses in the
market for provisions.

OPINION ON GRAIN

fit <’o : Wheat-The bearish temper
which was prevalent at the close yes

pression at the opening to-day «>n ac
count of rains and a lower market will
dotibtless rul» We would advise can
tion, however, about pressing the short

Corn <>n any fair setback from pres
ent prices we believe the market will
meet good buying again <>n the part of
those holders who liquidated yesterday
on the advance
Oats—The edge seems to be off the

was a good < lass of buying on the de
