WHERE THE MONEY KINGS LIVE.

According to a statistical article
in Chambers Journal, we have in
this country seventy citizens whose
aggregate wealth amounts to near
ly $4,000, ,OOG 900, giving an average
of $42, 800, 600 to each one. One es-
tate is returned at $15O,OOO, 900.
Five individuals are rated at $780,
900, 900 each; one at $1,000, 900; two
at $50, 100000; six at $5O,OOO,OOO;
six at $40, 100000, four at $35,OOO,-
900; thirteen at $3O,OOO,OOO; ten at
$50, 900, 900; four at $22, 100000 and
fifteen at $40, ,OOO,OO
Besides these seventy big for
tunes, there are fifty other persons
in the Eastern states worth over
81, 900, 900 each. Pennsylvania has
sixty-three milionaires, with in the
aggregate $3OO,O0O,OOO. Sixty per-
sons in three New York villages are
worth $5OO,OOO,OOO. Boston alone
has fifty families whose wealth
amounts to 100000 each.
We have nothing to compare with
such individual cases of wealth in
Great Britain. Baron Rothschild
and Lord Overton each left about
$l7 900, 900; the late Lord Dudley
left $40, 100000; the late Duke of
Buccelngh, estimaced to be the
richest Scotchman, left estates
valued at $3O,OOO,OOO. One living
English Duke is valued at $5O,OOO,-
600 and another at $40, 900, 900, but
not many names could be added to
these to place against the above
list of American fortunes in the
United Kingdom whose income
from business profits were returned
as over $25O,OO0 year. In 1886,
there were only seventeen estates
which paid probate duty on 81, 25O,-
900 each.
These are bewildering figures, If
wealth continues to concentrate in
the hands Of a few in the East for
another generation as it has done
in the past, the Southern and West
ern States will be mere provinces,
and the politics, legislation, com,
merce, industry and society of the
entire country will be dominated
by a few hundred families in several
OF the New England and Middle
states.

out of the house and sold, he claims,
without giving sufficient notice, and
thus Beagle alleges to have been de-
prived Of his right, for instance II he
wanted to avail himself Of the exemp-
tion laws. The value of the household
goods was about 5000. The action is for
damages, and the case went to the jury
