One ii f tho questions most commonly heard when men meet in Wall Street Is: "What ia Lawson's game in this Amalgamated business?" Various answers are given, but they are all guesswork. Whatever his real aims, however, he baa for the last two days been playing the game with vigor and success, for Amalgamated Copper, which closed on Monday at n<>-\. closed yesterday at 88%, carrying down the general list With it. The stock lost :ii 2 points on Tuesday, closing at 77 1 -;. Yesterday, un der the influence of the Lawson adver tisement bear agitation, it opened "wide," with simultaneous Bales of 7.500 shares at from 77 to (<5, and under an immense volume of selling, representing orders from all over the country. but principally from New-England, broke in a few minutes to 7-J. rallying to 75% by 11 o'clock At noon the price stood at 72%, at 1 o'clock It was 71%, at 2 o'clock 71> 4 . In the last half hour It broke violently to 68%, closing % per cent above this low level, a net loss of 8% points for th.-- day on sales of about 365,000 shares. If. as is commonly reported, Lawson sold his Amalgamated holdings and went heavily short of the stock after it i.ad. largely through his in utrumentaltty— for it is understood that his fol lowing ha* been very large— advanced from about •!" to 80. he has already realized a great j profit from his bull campaign, and a large paper i profit since ni.s sudden reversal of position; and | if his followers have heeded with safflcieni promptness his vehement advice of the Kim f-tw days to sell out their Amalgamated stock, they too must have reaped rich rewards. The manipulator of thf» Amalgamated "war game" yesterday added a new feature to his well known system of advising the Investing public through a4verti!=em«nts. when to tarry and when to sell Amalgamated Copper, swinging Into action a telegraphic rapid-fire battery, which at Intervals in the course of the day discharged the following paper shells into the offices of The Tribune and other newspapers: 11:30 telegram— Wall Street is spreading the varn through the wlrehouses that a large pool l a form ing to f?i\c support at 70.

The latest and longest missile— or missive— was delivered in the early evening;, also by telegraph. It was as follows: Boston, Dee. 7. I want just one word with the American peopll Who COme into Wall Street. A stranger in Wall Street to-day would think from the gnashing of the teeth of Its "Frenzied Finan ciers" and the keen curses they are hurling at me that I had done some one a wrong. Let Wall Street iii. ike no mistake. I made up my mind after the "shaking down" it pave the American people u >....-■ time. ago. when it loaded them with hun dreds of millions of Amalgamated, Steel and other niad< to-order securities and then clubbed them Into insensibility, that if it was In my power I would nip "Frenzied Financiers" In their nexi trip. Ii has been no easy task to lull them to sleep and catch them off their guard. but I think it has been accomplished, and the people have been able this time to exchange the watered chromoa for the "Frenzied Financiers' " cash.

Tiier* he met his nephew, Thomas McNeely, nn-i the !'.vi> went to a theatre, reaching homo shortly before H o'clock. Mr. McLaughlin complained to his wife that he was not feeling: as w.MI as he had lifpn. and went upstairs to his room tu go to bed. His wife followed a. few minute* later, and found him partly dressed and semi-conscious in a chair In hi? room on tho second floor. The family physician. Dr. Joseph Kcne, of No. 64 Greene-avo., was summoned, nml Dr. Wunder lich, who lives rioxt door, came Immediately. By the time Dr. Wunderlich had reached tiie old inan'<= side be was unconscious. He di'-d in a f«'\V Sl'( ODfJS. With him when he died were his wife and nephew, his daughter. Mrs. ,T;it'.p Roche, and his niece, Miss May Waldron, Hugh Mclaughlin, known best to his ap<octnt«>s as the "boss" and the "old man," for years held the Democracy of Brooklyn In the hollow of his hands. He was born April 22, ISSs. in what t>t now Furman-st. "under the Heights." His father was an Irish Immigrant, who ran a tiny grocery store. The father died In 1839, leaving a family of Seven Children, of whom Hugh was the youngest He was early apprenticed to a ropemaker It: Will iamsburp. but before h . had attained his majority the boy had be.com© the proprietor of a fish mar ket in the Walla bout market. There lie came In contact with a lot of the poll twines of the time, whose conversation caused his f^rst political aspirations, it was at that time that axne one of the old Brooklyn volunteer flre mcn. At the time the Bremen, half a social or ganization and entirely a political one. were a po litical force to be reckoned with. McLaughlin ran with the engine for years, noi missing a chance to make himself solid with the boys. Then he was mode boss of :< gang of men in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. tliH men grot into the habit of calllne: him "Boss." .-ml when he threw himself with enthusiasm into ward polltlca the name stuck to him, although In later years he swore in the strongest terms In \U>* Knglish language thai the name wan M-.<- ir.^si ab horrent to him of any in the world. id was graduated from ward politics, nn-l . . de himself master of every detail of the work <>f tho machine. McLaughlin realized that when he sot a man ;i job he was quite as likely to uiaJie a friend for himself im "if for the party, and gradually in this way he built up a large personal following n in looking for .1 Job was told to "jfo and hi- Hughey." In 1861, backed by !n.« personal p.ilitir.ii following ;i!ici swinging th>- flrfni'-n Into line for himself, McLaughlin was elected Register, and wa.« re elected three years Intir. In l^iT h« ra:i aga I was defeated. Nothing daunted, h«' ran ;isai!. at i). next election, and was returned to office by a majority of 12,000. That was the last n'll'lie otiice hi held ills rtr.-t recognition in a ;."liti<ni way came about through a fisht against th'* r--ciii.tr or ganisation of th;it il;.if-, and \\*- wax elected .irst a-- Register as an Independent on a "citizens' " . i- : On the day that h< fl: si aasumed office a.<= Reg later he made a present of his rlsii businesa to hi.« !)• ui •lerk. McLaughlin was :i leader who knew how to wait lur- hist the rlplif tirie. H<. waited for his opportu nity and was mnde J.ops of a ffangr of navy yard lal orera.

He was a square man, .is th* political definition of squareness %">■* He w;is accused, and justly. <>f breaking public promises and pledgee on matters of policy, but he was never accused of breaking his personal word. If lie promised a man an offl.-f or job, that man K>>t it or Its equivalent. When n.en tried i>> block liin plans he crushed them without m< •• ■ . but when the affair w;is i.v»-r and th.- man wanted to com- back they were forgiven. I/Ik-- all Lh( leaders of his kind, McLaughlin had at that lime :i physique strong enough to m.ikp him vic torious in -i bout "f fisticuffs if need be, the stub borness oi a bulldog, and an amazing insight into human nature. His shrewdness was of the rather commonplace order of the men of the stamp of "Big Bill" Devery, I'iu his caution and patience and his ability to iiK.k-- men follow him. chiefly because of confidence in ins personal promises, gave him the power t.i keep the whip hand In Brooklyn. His Influence never went outside of Brooklyn The boundaries of that city were the boundaries of his power. He knew ids limitations and never aspired to State politics. His reticence was almost proverbial in Brooklyn, no man In public life being less easy of approach. When he wanted particularly t" dodge questions he would go Oshing, he enjoy a great reputation as an expert with tho rod and line. The most formidable of the early rebellions against Willoughby Street was in 1881 the Jefferson Hall movement. \ lot of the Democrats believed that the McLaughlin machine had not given <;• eral Hancock, the Presidential candidate, the proper support and the charge was openly made thai i,, had been sold out in th" county, in the fall of 1883 Fame* Ho -■ II v..i< renominated tor a third term •■• Mayor.

The gun had been loaded with a 570-pound shell by a de tachment of the 97th Coast Artillery, under the direction of the two officers. The breech had been closed, but the recoiling pear had not been placed in position. Without the slightest warning the sun was discharged and the recoil lifted the piece fnm its carriage and threw it back on it? trunnions, wrecking them, as well as th>^ platform. Fortunately no one was standing directly behind the gun, but every one near it v.as thrown to the ground. The shell passed through the top of the parapet, wrecking it. and continued on out to sea.
