High Rates Of Interest IN New England

EdiIor of the lntelliRencer.
In the October, 1898, number of the
Forum, David A. Wells made the stale
ment that 10 the period through which
the country had passed and l. passing
the rates of interest have been lover
than eve before. In answering this
in the Arena for December, 1894. /
denied that the rates are low, or nave
been, except on call loans TO Il favored
few spectators in the cities of New
York, RosIon and Philadelphia. and
showed that the producers OF our great
staple crops pay high rates OF interest,
| knew this TO be the case outside of
the Northeast, but did not know that
in New England, right under Mr..
Wells's own nose, the rates are very
high. also, except 10 a favored few.
The proof is found IN the extract below,
from the Springfield (Mass.) Repub-
lican:
'.Loanlng money In this city at rates
which amount to so and 60 per cent Il
year is a very common thing. 1t can
not be traced in the mortgages on real
estate, for the reason that the money
sharks, fearing possible trouble, care
fully conceal the rate of interest from
curious eyes. Instead of stating the
rate of interest, they say In the mort
gage that 1t is that which Is named IN
the note on WHICH the money 10 lnaaed.
For some years the registration of
chatlel mortgages has read 50 that the
rate Is not gwen.
"A common rate OF interest Is 8 per
cent a menth; 8 per CEN is less often
seen. Very common rats are II and
10 per cent per year. According 20
law only 10 per cent per annum can be
collected on loans of less than $1,000,
and all payments of interest at u rate
greater than IL per cent are to be APP
piled to the payment of the principal.
Ii money lenders tried to COLLECT inter-
est in a greater amount by legal action
they would fail. but they easily get
the law by taking their interest
in advance.
