1.-THE Fruits of Fraudulent Railroad
Management" by J. Selwin TAFT, which
has the place Of honor in the Engineering
Magazine, of New York, for June, pre-
sents the subject in a new light and shows
forcibly that every portion of the commu-
nifty, from the poorest to the wealthiest
is acutely and injurously affected by cor
porate fraud and mismanagement Mr.
TAFT points out: that the deposits in the
savings banks of New York state exceed
those Of Great Britain, indicating not so
much greater thrift as the absence of 9th
er sound investments; that the tendency
of our savings banks is to educate deposit-
ors to the value Of real estate, which Is
thereby driven to excessive figures to the
great injury Of the community at large;
that the small capitalists who do not ia
Vor savings banks also shun domestic
stocks, and invest in business ENTERPRISES
inducing a ruinouS competition unparali-
eled elsewhere in the world. The Engineer
ing Magazine, Times Building, New York
