Democratic Financiering.

The profits of the Morgan, Belmont
and ROthchild syndicate which took
the last issue of United States bonds
can now be accurately figured up. This
is done by Mr.. w. ID. Curtis in a New
York letter to The Chicago Record.
The bonds amounted in value to
500, III, 800, and were sold by the gov
eminent at a premium of $4.4S above
par to Messrs. Morgan and Belmont.
They disposed of them to the syndi-
cate which they organized at an adj
vance If 1915 on each bond of 800.
This gave Morgan and Belmont 4
profit of S4,S3l,575. OF this, however,
they retained only three-fOurthso of one
per cent. as their commission, or the
sum of SISS,372, and the remainder
was divided among the members of
the syndicate, giving them profit of
6.612 per cent. on their investment,
which with the Is per cent. interest
accrued on the bonds was equal TO a
profit of S.422 per cent. Their
money being tied up about six
months. the transaction netted them
at the rate of 1854 per cent. year.
But the bonds were soon worth a
premium of from - to % cents, or an
advance of nearly $l7 on each 800, so
that the members of the syndicate,
if they have sold the bonds. lave had
profit of $l2, 494, 3S4, or, if they
retain part of them, can, by selling,
realize that amount.
1t was nice transaction for the
| syndicate, but does not reflect great
credit upon the financial ability of
| the administration. The latter,
however, can plead that much of he
blame rests upon Democratic con-
| gress, which refused to take any
action for the relief OF the treasury,
while the administration waited fol-
| il To act until the treasury was on
the verge of bankruptcy, and then
was obliged TO make the loan with
/ the utmost haste to avoid national
| insolvency. milwaukee, Sentinel.
