They have been wiped out in the terrific selling orgy on the stock exchange. Fifteen millions of dollars were lost in the last five days by residents of Oshawa and district. This was de- scribed by those who know as a "con« servative estimate," $15,000,000, a 'sum equal to thé entire assessment of this city; a sum therefore equal to 40 per cent. and more of the entire value of all real estate in Oshawa. A loss of $600 for every man, woman and child in thigcity. Tremendous, al- most unbelieveable. Yet it is true. Tight-lipped, with strained faces, hundreds 'of citizens of Oshawa clus- 'tered around the tape in the local brokerage offices as it ground out the story of stocks that were going down, down, down.
