Wealth of the Jews.

The American Hebrew avails of the
statistics of the New York Journal to
allay any alarm that may be felt touch
ing the rapid increase of Jewish wealth
and power in our chief cities, and es-
peeially in New York. Speaking of the
wealth of the Jews, it publishes list
of multi-millionaires, in which the first
Jew is 33d, the aggregate wealth of
those above him being $1,315 10000.
OF real estate holdings, valued by the
tax bureau at 1,G4G,02 ,G55, only about
$200,000,00O are in the hands of Jews.
There were counted 1914 signs on
Broadway from Bowling Green to Four
teenth street, of which only 766 bore
Jewish names, and this in the strong
hold of Jewish tradesmen. The Jour
nal goes on TO show that the Jewish
population of the world is 100000 in
81 total of 1,4SO,OOO,OOO, and of these
more than two-thirds are in Russia,
while in New York there are $4,000 of
them in population of five times that
number. 1t thus appears that the pre-
ponderating influence of the Jew is
simply bugaboo, unworthy of serious
attention.

1t is curious that, while Chinese
viceroy is visiting our country, an
American bark should have brought
to San Francisco u cargo of anthra-
cite and manufacturing coal mined in
.Tonquin. The importers of this first
consignment of coal from China say
that it is only the beginning; but they
have well nigh ineXhaustible mines to
draw from, and can afford to sell, and
will sell, at prices far below the rates
established in California for either
Welsh or Pennsylvania coal.
