demanded seven per cent per month.
That meant exactly 81 per month or sS4
year. AS matter of fact, considering
that the interest had TO be paid every
month, 1t would approach nearer to 100
per cent.
The result is that the unfortunate fish
man, although he has nearly paid double
the amount of money he borrowed, still
owes the money broker 500 on the prln.
cipal and some months interest.
BORROWER BECOMES LENDER.
"A few years ago a Pawtuoket official
was a borrower himself, and was con-
stantly in debt to a well-known real estate
man, who has now retired from business.
The official was an apt scholar, however,
and quickly learned the system. He SAW
that there was royal road To wealth.
The result is that he ~ no longer debtor,
but he IL now able to lend money mt fancy
rates OF interest, and could easily retiro
from his position on the revenue he de-
rives from the men to whom he has ad
vanced money.
The loan offices generally "only" re-
ceive 10 per cent, but there are numerous
instances where they receive as high as Is
that the borrower pays at the rate of $50
per cent. per year, though over 200 per
cent would be nearer the mark.
There is another kind of shark. He is
the man VINO lends money on diamonds at
a very high rate Of interest. There is rea-
son TO believe that there Is only one of
that class in the city Of Pawtucket though
there are more in this city.
The Pawtuoket man is from Boston.
Does his business "slick." he is
smooth talker and when. he meets friend
in any of the saloons or other places. who
are just little short Of money. and pro-
viding that he has a diamond, the Boston
man will lend him $40 or upward, accord
ing to- the value of the article. His rate
OF interest runs from 10 to % per cent per
month.
In this way he does very profitable
business, and as most of his customers are
men who for the time being are just
little too short to continue n nights
racket he can almost lend them the
money on his own terms.
This man is about 40 years of age. He
wears glasses, and carries cane. He Is
dead game sport in appearance, and always
has an eye TO business.
