Others explained it by the fact that a I large amount - of stocks, carnal on i margins, have hccn sold, in conse-" oience o: tiie holders being unable to ; put up any mere collateral. It is said ' tu.:t YandVrbiii has been a free seller, 1 and that Jay Gould told out stocks ! 1 which he bought in, and could not deliver, and has been buying up gold.
