Advance Pointers a Failure in Goldfield Stock Plot
A San Francisco Call report from Reno claims Nevada politicians and prominent state figures lost nearly ten thousand dollars in a failed attempt to profit from Goldfield Consolidated. They pooled about forty thousand dollars to buy on margin via brokers Harry Epstine of Tonopah and others, facing margin calls as the stock slid from six to five and a half, then to six and fifteen tenths as more shares flooded the market. The loss spread with continued selling, and by today an Eastern syndicate showed interest at five and a portion, while several named figures near Governor Sparks were implicated though Sparks was ill. One financier reportedly lost most of a lifetime of savings. In Chicago, Josephy Brown & Co. wholesale jewelers faced bankruptcy after American Trust and Savings Bank was appointed receiver following a petition by Racine & Co. of New York.
