When Wall street tlrst caught tho fever for 'Industrial combinations" and begnu the reorganization of every thing lu sight one of the votaries of high finance fouud himself lu Chicago In extreme need of communlcntlng with his New York otllce. Ho almost completed an arrange ment for the consolidation of several western enterprises, but In 'order to get the tlual authority he needed from Now York ho must explain all ho had done by wire to his partners. There was no tlmo to write. He had no cipher code. For n long time he tried to think out some way to send tho Information so that It wouid be plain to tits partners and meaningless to any one else U U secret was a val uable one and once sent over the wire might be sold out to his rivals in Wall street fur a large sum. At last he decided to take the chances In plain English. Accordingly be wrote the message and gave It to his assistant to send, naif an hour later, when the assistant came back, he asked him If be had sent lu "Not lust that way." said the clerk. "I rewrote It-the llrst word on n Postal blank, the second on a Western Union, and so on I sent half by each company, aud neither half meant any thing Then 1 seut a second message by one line, saying. 'Renjl both mes- Mgi-s together. Alternating words." The scheme was too simple for the high financier to have evolved, but It worked 'perfect It HENS NOT STUPID.
