should Guaymas ever become large sized

indicate, the bocd dulce will furnish one OF

While we were here the United States
Fish Commission steamer "Aloatross"

@here were enough fishes in the Gulf OF

Mayer Amschel died in the year 1912, leav-
ing a widow and five sons. The widow died
thrty-seven years LITER, aged ninety-six
years, in the old house IN Jew alley which
had witnessed the growth and expansion Of
her husband wealth and influence. When
MAYER Amschel died, he summoned his five
sons to his death-bed to give them his last
advice. The advice was to remain true to
the Jewish law, to remain united TO the end
and to do nothing without con sulting their
mother "Observe these three points,
said the dying fnancier, "and you will be
rich among the richest, and the world will
belong to you"
The five sons fulfilled the precepts incul-
Gated by their father. Until very recently
they kept all the money in the family by ia
termarrying. To achieve financial suprem-
acy the brothers separated, however, the
eldest son remaining In Frankfort, the four
younger ones directing houses in London,
Vienna, Paris and Naples. In accordance
with the fathers wishes, all large operations
were conducted by the several firms In COM
mon, and are so conducted even at this day.
In 1915, on account of their support of the
allied armies by their generous supplies of
money and credit, the whole family was
raised TO the ranks Of the nobility, and In
1922 received the baronial dignity.

FRANKFORT, GERMANY.-I notice in recent
American papers that various syndicates
have lately been formed in the United
States by the Belmont banking house of
New York. Readers, even though they be
but specifically acquainted with financial
affairs, know that the capital so invested
is controlled by the Rothschilds pronounced

a field for enterprise to be neglected By the
greatest money power of the world, and, al
though it may not be generally known, 1t IS
nevertheless fact that some of the most
promising railroad, electrical and mining

Any attempt TO give an idea OF the wealth
Of the Rothschild family would be mere
guess work The affairs of the syndicate
are conducted with the strictest secrecy,
and a system of bookkeeping has been de-
vised by the heads of the various houses
which leaves clerks as much IN the dark
concerning the affairs Of their employers as
the public at large. Every body knows,
however, that the Rothschi!ds are an in
fuence in the political affairs Of Europe,
and that they can dictate war or peace
whenever it may suit their interests.
Whether their purchase of American Sc
