Interview With the President OF One of 1
Prominent Financial I%natitutInna.

Interview With the President of One of Its
Prominent Financial Institutions.
A reporter called upon Joseph Samp-
son. president of the Fidelity Loan and
Trust company, Of Sioux City, Ia, at the
company's new western headquarters In
the United bank building. and found
that gentleman extremely busy. After
showing the reporter through the new
and magnificent building In which the
company is located, some inquiries were
made regarding money matters.
All through New England, Mr.. Samp-
son explained, there is continued sus-
picion OF western farm securities. The
eastern newspapers are full OF alarmist
articles from week to week, decrying
further loans to western farmers. Free
trade organs insist upon dragging in
the western farmer as downtrodden and
oppressed, an object Of pity, and in al
most every article manage to drag in
the farm mortgage Indebtedness OF the
west as q part OF their argument. To
make the matter worse, q number Of
farm mortgage companies have failed to
carry out their agreements with their
eastern clients during the past few
months. This has led TO the exercise
Of renewed caution OF the part of in
vestment seekers who have heretofore
put their money out on farm security,
believing 1t to be the best going, free
from speculative tendencies and yield
Ing the largest rate OF interest.
Through fear that the mortgage com-
panies generally we're going to lie down
under their engagements people have
been and still are slow to take hold and
buy western mortgages. Very fortu-
nately, however. the Fidelity company
occupies a unique place in this line of
business, SO that they have access to a
large list of clients and friends, who
know a great deal about the section OF
country in which they are doing busi-
ness, as we'll as the class and quality of
security our people can give for funds.
They have, therefore, got an abundant
supply of money ready to put out upon
either farm or city property at fair rates
of interest and on favorable terms OF
repayment. They have plenty of money
to loan, and with them it i'd merely a
question Of collateral.

To b Continued
Tin Go Billiard Balls.

The news that Emin Pasha has left
behind him his load of ivory has had
n surprising effect upon billiard inter-
csts in this country, says the New York
Sun, and its effect may be soon felt in
n further bulling of the market for soft
ivory used in the manufacture of bill
iard-balls. The price of billiard balls
was recently advanced to 1872 a set of
four balls of standard 23-8-inch meas
urement. 1t was the last boom of a
slow rise in price that had been going
on for nearly Il year. Last year, be-
fore the advance set in. Il standard set
of balls of the best ivory could be bought
for $26. Footballs were a trile cheap
err, because such true spheres Of ivory
are not needed in pool.
The billiard-ball manufacturers at
tribute the increase to the war that had
been going on in Zanzibar for n year
or more between the Arab traders aud
the natives Oh the one hand and the
German leaders Of the protectorate at
Zanzibar on the other. These costly
discussions, the manufacturers say,
had the effect of greatly retarding the
expectation of soft ivory from Africa,
and created II scarcity of good ivory
that made the increase in prices of bill.
iard-balls necessary. Only a certain
part of the tusk can be made into bill.
iard-balls. and that select part has to
be in perfect condition or it is useless
for the billiard trade. The select part
is cut into square blocks, and these
blocks are turned into spheres. Any
imperfection in the tusk will produce
q ball that will be cracked when turn.
ed, or that will not season, which il
just as bad. The trimmings of the cor.
ners of the square blocks arc utilized
for the manufacture of ivory rings used
in harness.
