Into the oflice of one of the best: known of these agencies at a foreign station there entered late one night, when a. recent. War was in progress, a distinguished~looking gentleman “ho introdumd himself by a noble title, and “ho produu-d a desp-atch; which he said he had received from‘ the seat. of hostilities, which. if true. was of a. most important character. He generously offered to make the agency a present of the information. The manager thanked the Visitor and said they would make their mm inâ€". quiries immediately. The cauer then showed anxiety, and, producing a roll of notes. of- fered the agency managor $5,000 if he Would put the story on the wires without further delay. The money was refused, but a promise was given to forward the story. Am! so it was telegraphed to headquarters. but. with a. full statement of the circum- stances and of the bride that had been offered. Needless to say. this war "news.” was nm'cr published. If anybody could persuade one of the great, foreign news agencies to circulate an exceptionally big and important lie in a Very \‘emcious- looking manner, there. are thousands of people who could make fortunes out of it. This idea has been thought of many a time, but has al- wnys failed. MARKING ‘ MESSAG IS London newspapers have to be very much on their guard against this kind of thing, and in at. least. one ruse all the correspondents of a cer- tain newspaper now in the far east have a particular sign by which the editors in London ca n tell whether their telegrams are genuine or not. 'A certain word is placed near the beginning of each message and the correspondent always spells it in a particular and unusual wav. Then the editors lino“ that nobodv else is making fraudulent use of their car- respondents name and authority. Whilst. the public were doubting and the stock markets hesitating, what had every appearance of being a. true report, reliable confirmation came to hand. and prices then shot, up with a tremendous rush. l-‘RANTIC BUYERS. The public were in a frantic hurry to buy all they Could. When enor- mous profits were to be obtained, the people who had nought the mil- lion's worth of steel: sold out as quietly as possible. Then it. began to be noticed that there had been no Government confirmation of the story, and shortly afterwards it be- came Very apparent that the whale thing had been a “plant" from be- ginning to end, news being soon re- ceived of fresh movements by Napo- leon, who was still very much alive. Thousands of speculators who had bought stock at the inflated prices were hopelessly ruined. Many ef- forts were made to bring the con- spirators to justice, but they all failed. ‘ About the beginning of 1814. a circle of individuals who had never previously dabbled in stock exchange matters btgan, in the most mysteriâ€" ous fashion, to buy up all the (lovâ€" ormncnt stock that, they could lay their hands on in London. EVCntual- 1y they had collected about $5,000.- 000 Worth among them, and then on February 2‘lst a staggering report was spread that the Allies had over- come the French and that. Napoleon had been actually killed. FORTUNES MADE; ON THE STOCK MARKETS. Precautions Taken by the News and War Correspon- dents. 0n the Very first. day of the war in the far east. between Russia and Japan a sensation was caused by the telegram which was sent from St. Petersburg announcing that there had becn a terrible fight ofl Port "Arthur and that fourteen Japanese ships had been sunk. A few hours later the report was denied, but in the interval it is likely that, many Operators an the Continental Boursc had made iox‘tunos out 01‘ the ru- mor; jUSt as in the same way Pru- cisely, in the case of past wars in .‘vhich European powors have been inVolved, thousands 01‘ dollars have been made in as many seconds by those "in the know." Over and owr again in history has this trick boon perpetrated on a gigantic scale. For example, one of the most sensational war reports on record was inVentcd for this purpose. It was during the European war at the beginning of the last century, when everybody was living in daily dread of Napoleon. In the great. majority of cases these false reports are circulated by interested financial magnates, and not by too enterprising nmvspapers, as is generally imagined. There are few newspapers in the world in these days, and certainly none in England that would deliberately fake a. re Port of a. battle. for the result would inevitably be, after the truth was known. to discredit the paper for the rest. of the War. SIMPLE PROCESS. The process is, of course. simple enough. At the beginning of every war the stock markets or the world are invariably in an exceedingly ner- vous state and susceptible to the slightest influences. When a story is spread of a great disaster all stocks and shares immediately fall in price. llihen the ne\\‘s is provad to be unâ€" true they rise again. Anyone who knows far certain that the report is false buys all he can during the momentary slump, and when the market. has recovered sells oil at the increaSed prices with large profits to himself. Sometimes the process is reversed with similar results. EFFEBTS OF WAR NEWS THE JLLS 01¢ CHILDHOOD.

It is the intention of the Grand Trunk *0 mm through cars from Montreal and Toronto to St. Louis, commencing June 13th. and possibly before. The total expenses of n trip to St. Louis based on half railway rates, is within the reach of a}! and pc-râ€" mits stop o\'or at Chicago, and other points, and the trip is made quickly and comfortably. The beautiful Electric lighting of the Pan American Exposition, which few thought would ever he approach- ed is entirely eclipsed by this Mon- ster Fair. One of the features of the fair, is the “Inside Inn.” 3 hotel accommo- dating 6.000, splendidly run, and at reasonable rum-s. When you consider the immensity of the building's, one alone having over 20 acres of floor space, and reâ€" flect that they are filled with the choicest of exhibits from all over the world, one exhibitor vying with another to obtain the coveted Cold Mala}, it sot-ms to suggest the thought of what a grand opportun- ity and an education it will be, to the young men and women of our land, to spend a Week or two at St. Louis this year. Really no inâ€" telligent man, woman or child can an‘ord to miss this grvat World's treat. An Electrical railway, called the Intramural, makes it easy to get: from one part of the grounds to another, and follow out the daily programme, enjoying an hour listem ing to “Sousa's” or other famous bands, or taking in a lecture or ad- dress, or Art Gallery. The site of 1240 acres being two miles long and one mile wide, is covered With beautiful building's, broken with lagoons. canals, grand courts. monuments, statuary, parlis, etc., all forming a picture that must, be seen to be realized.
