(Copyright, 1900, by the Frank Les- lie Publishing House.) Many rogues have trod the shady side of Wall street, great in their ingenuity, great In their achieve- tents, and great in the way they fought themselves out of or into jail. There ts an irresistible fascin- etion about Wall street for the rogue, though the “dead line” of the newspaper police stories, which say that no rogue is ever allowed by the detectives to 3 south of Maiden lane—the upper boundary of the money market—is a pleasing fiction, applicable only to common ctooks, who would rob stores and pedestrians. The Wall street rogue who masquerades in fine raiment as a financier knows no such re straint, and he would be amused were you to mention ft to him Now, Wail street is always full of rogues. They travel singly, in pairs and tn gangs, and represent a dozen different types. More seemingly respectable ing harbors neste of them soldiers of fortune include some highly polished villains, who, un- fortunately, are never found out. bat he had brains and money, and always played for heavy stakes. Albert Yarnell was of French de- scent and probably 38 years of age. Of middie stature, robust build, rather coarse features, and a wearer of eyeglasses, he wan not a person to attract attention off hand. To study his face one would first need the incentive of knowing the man and his deeds, You would then say perhaps, that the man was neither good nor bad to look upon, but that the face lacked cultivation. The eyes were bine, the forehead and chin broad, the nose rather large and the mouth well formed and strong. It just missed the finish ing touches that would have made a strong, manly and attractive per sonality. In financial affairs Yar nell was absolutely lacking in sense of morality. He respected no one, least of all himself. He gloried in hia ingenuity as a rogue, and would as leave rob a widow as #, banker tham ome! Hoth had been his victims, and if ce balld-|the jail doors yawned for him he ‘These | smilingly contemplated them—gen erally at a distance—although there had been times when they had boen dangerously near to closing in upon ‘They maintain what appears to be| him excellent social and financial stand- ing; and, if the ni thin in places, other than those who have had per~ sonal contact with and chipped the veneer until the truth was revealed for the very few to see and wonder thereat. From the leader of this little army of adventurers to the cheap swindling speeulator, who offers a supposedly confiding broker a New York draft on an alleged Spokane, Wash., bank account, is a long leap. The central figure of this story, however, did not represent either type. Still, he was a leader. He bad social status, it Is true; no vr is @ trifle) it is not apparent to) A partner in a Yarnell operation had said of him upon one occasion “Stick a pin in that fellow and you'll get ice water.” That was an other rogues description of an abso lutely cold blooded wretch who had no friends, wanted none, and help od the state with his evidence when ever it sulted his convenience. He would take a weak man, use him as a tool, squeeze him dry, wind erim inal cords around him, and then thrust him into the hands of a dis- trict attorney looking for a victim. Yarnell was versed in eriminal law as far as it pertained to high finance. He knew its highways and byways. In his legal calculations “THE DEAL WAS GOING TH ever worked upon the cupfdity of the public and disgraced God’ green carth, When he was retat: ed, to use bis own words, he had to be “declared in“ on the deal; that ia to may, he wanted and demanded ® liberal share of the profita, If there were no profits, of course he charged his fees nevertheless. The other combined corporation with ertminal Inw, and only accepted criminals as clients, because he w & spendthrift, and Yarnell's re- |talfers were of handsome propor | tlons. In 1899, when several handre thousand men were riotously drunk | with stock speculation; when an wer capitalized trolley road that | was not earning the fraction of a cent In the form of dividends sold at $126 a share out, bankrupt celver, was qu nd ready for a re ted at $312; when electric shares sold at prices in flated to the point of bursting when industrial stock promotions amounted to a couple of billions a |year, Mr. Yarnell threaded bis way down Broad street and surveyed the jeurb market. A prince of schemers, |he had a new scheme, and he knew |for Albert Yarnell. To work out | his complic plan #0 as to get the lion's share of the spolls, while his partners received the minimum, was the basis of the ideas shifting Jabout in his knave's head. “The curb,” or outside security market, is the overflow from the lstock exchange.

Yarnell's brokers bought }and sold the stock by the process | j the newcomer was welcomed represented known as “washing;” that is to way they conspired to manipulate the price. As they bad all the stook, and never contemplated its delivery | unless they sold to an outalder, they | | could readily advance quotations to | any point they desired. ElectrionAx | was launched at $30 a share, and in | a few weeks Yarnell’s four brokers, | who josteled thetr way about in the | unwieldy curb crowd surging ‘wp and down Broad street, had voolf- erously bid the price up to $80. In the interval, Messrs. Bryant & Rice, one of Yarnell’s dummy firms, were sending out 5,000 mimeograph leiroular letters to a selected list.of 5.000 credulous investors \ This etreular letter said { “100 Points Profit—Bverybody re- | members the sensational advances which occurred tn New York Atr Brake and Storage Battery stocks in recent months.

Now its status waa: Rach of the five confederates had $7,500 up as margin, making a total of $37,500; each of the five bad per suaded brokers to buy 300 shares of Electric Ax at 80. Their brokers had bought in the open market 1,500 shares of Ax at $80 a share, or $120, 000 in the aggregate. Yarnell had £120,000 of the brokers’ money had $37,500 of his. Yarnell’s gross profit by the deal was $82,500. The | very day the last lot of stock was delivered Yarnell telegraphed a cipher message to his duymy specu jntors, telling them to fly.
