It was easy to find money backing: for these enterprises. Africa was a name to conjure by. The Dark. Continent was a mystery not unmixed with ro- mance. Its resources were unlimit- abie. its possibilities incalcuiabie. New "4-; nun. nu "v... strikes of rich veins were reported. With each strike sprang up a. company to work it. Kamr stocks were in every man’s mind. The English newspa- pers helped on the widespread public interest by publishing ions letters and despntches iron: me scene of activity. Conservative English papers inveighed against. it. but the people gave no heed. Barney Barnum got into the Rank swim. He plunged deep. His natural daring and cool eflrontery stood him well. He won enormously. Then he brnnnhed out Independently and drew shout him his own loiioving. It was mother case of the lucky gambler lead- ing the wsy for the nnincky.

The nominal capital of this bank was £2,500,000. The shares were £1 each. and on the morning of the issue there were 1,500 brokers, with orders to buy hundreds and in some cases thousands, o! shares at. the market. The shares opened from £3% to [4% premium, and the capital of the bank is now valued at nearly £0,000,000. At the last set- tlement, when there was talk about dlfâ€" acuity in carrying over stocks, Barnato announced that he would lend £10,000.- 000 on the stocks of companies in which he was interested. The trading in these shares develâ€" oped one at the most startling scenes ever witnessed in the London market. For a time there was an aimost Inde- scribable frenzy. and the shares were bid up to more than [our times their face value.
