Wall Street Notes.

Munsey’s Weekly, It is quite as hard for a broker to live on his income as it is for a beggar to live on his outgo. It is eminently proper that a young Napoleon of stock-gambling should meet his Water-100. The early bird catches the worm, but the early spring lamb on Wall street is lucky if he catches any of the mint sauce. If Jay Gould does not go slow in his aqueous career he will rapidly degenerate from a financial to a water power. Young speculators who hold for a rise will do well to sell before the enterprises in which they are interested have entirely gone up. If the worst ernes to the worst a large number of the western railroads will be able to pay off their gold bonds in railroad iron at 5 mills on the dollar. The fondnees of gay young broken for comic-opera troupes is quite excusable when it is remembered that they have been brought upto admire stoss companies. z
