ATRANSPLANTED A IDEA.

Since Western investments OF many
sorts, Western banks. Western building
and loan companies have fallen into de-
served disfavor in the East, and no more
money is forthcoming for them from this
rich section OF ever-ready investors,
there has begun marked invasion OF
New England by the shrewd young men
who have had their training at sailing
down Eastern money in Western securities
on the spot. These bright fellows or
ganize banks, loan and investment COM
panies among us on "new and improved
plans" often quite startling for their
originality of conception and scope OF en-
terprise, and give us thereby, right at
home, a taste OF Western "hustling meth
ods." Then they appoint themselves to
the salaried Offices aud securing an i'm.
posing list of local names OF prominence
for directors, presidents, e-presidents
and such inocuous positions, proceed to
hunt for the small capitalist who, tired OF
sending his money West and wanting
to put it in right at home, may thus
have "brilliant opportunity" opened up
to him that his savings bank, or the con-
servative loan associations under response
BILE management, and organizations and
institutions that already exist and that he
knows all about, have heretofore some

When old Crocker's pile had risen to Mon
umental heights, heconcluded to build for
himselfa house that would outshine any

Then Yung wanted $ll 900. Crocker put
up the money, and Yung hois ~ the price

This bunko business made old Crocker
