The loan of $685. 100000 which Rus.
STA has Just made in New York is n
of many recent evidences that the.
worlds center of financial gravity is
shifting to this side of the Atlantic,
observes the St Louis Globe-Demo-
crat. For many years that center was
in Lisbon. Then it went to Amster-5
dam. Afterwards it travelled to Lon
don, and 1t remained there two and
a half centuries. Now it is moving
to New York. Russia had the whole
world open to it, but it came to New
York to float its big loan. The loan,
which is guaranteed blythe government
Of thesCzar, is to be paid, principal and
interest, in American money, and in
New York. This is not the first loan.
of a European government which has
been 1oated In this country. The
United States is the wealthiest coun-
try in the world. In this respect, in
deed, it has gone so far beyond the
United Kingdom in the past twenty
years that its holdings Of property of
all sorts very nearly equal those of the
United Kingdom and France together,
which stand second and third on the
list, respectively. There is more
wealth in New York than there is in
any other spot on the globe. New
York, in the near future. is destined
undoubtedly to figure more conspicu-
ously than London in the great fnan-
eiaI enterprises of the world.

because of the preponderance of argu-
ment in opposition to the theory that
the provisions of the constitution were
at nee extended TO these islands, and
until the matter was adjudicated by
the supreme court of the United States
it was properly held that the islands
We're simply the property of the United
States and that congress had power to
do as it pleased with regard to them.
undoubtedly it was President McKin-
ley's first view that the provisions of
the constitution extended to these pos
sessions at once upon their acquisition,

ing republicans everywhere until light
has been thrown upon the question BY
the expressed wisdom OF able consti-
tutional lawyers. 1T must be assumed
that the house would not have passed
the fifteen per cent tariff measure with
out some reasonable assurance that the
president had changed his first views
the subject and favored this COM
promise as the best way to treat the
emergency. His message on the ap-
preparation of the accumulated rev
enues of $2,O0O,0o0 from Puerto Rico
for the benefit Of the island and the
speedy passage of the bill by the house
has, however, partially destroyed the
logic of crying necessity of the tar
if, and now the amendment offered
by Senator Davis may be ae-s
cepted a a proper solution of the
whole question, as while it extends the
constitution e Puerto Rico by so
doing it implies that it cannot be
tended to the Philippines or other ter
ritories except by act of congress. 1T
is believed this meets the views of the
president and the republicans Of the
northwest have faith in the sagacity,
Integrity and wisdom Of MI. McKin-
ley. The republicans in congress en-
terrain the same view and whatever is
done by that body will be done in per-
feet harmony with the mature judg-
ment of the administration.
