Show Wild Times on Stock Exchange. New York. There was an episode in the New York stock exchange Wednesday that was more spectacular, spectacu-lar, in many respects, than the recent Rock Island fiasco. With a break of more than 60 points, the so-called Columbus Co-lumbus & Hocking Coal and Iron pool was smashed, two stock exchange houses were forced to suspend, and the market generally . underwent severe se-vere declines, involving the heaviest trading since the day of Edward H. Harriman's death. A rigid inquiry by the governors of the exchange Is expected. |
