A Colossal Bank.


The London correspondent of the
New York World is authority for the
statement that j. Pierpont Morgan is
engaged in arranging for the establish
ment of great Anglo-American bank,
with capital of 81 100000 .OO0. 1t is
said that it is proposed to abolish all
of the principal financial agencies and
banks already engaged In Anglo-Amer-
lean business.
Mr.. Morgan, it is understood, has
associated with him IN the stupendous
undertaking not only the principal
capitalists who aided in the organiza-
ton of the United States Steel Corpora
ton, but also the Rothschilds, of Lon
don.
The creation of a bank with CAPT
talization of billion dollars is an un-
dertaking OF nature so colossal that
nothing approaching it has ever been
limited at before. The aggregate of the
capitalizations of the sixty-four ma
tional banks in the city of New York
is barely one billion. Two banks only
are capitalized at $lO,O0O,OOO each-tht
National City and the National Bank
of Commerce. The greatest bank IN
the world, the Bank of England, has {
capital of IA 553 900 pounds sterling, OF
about $72,765,000. The Bank of Franc.
has capital of 1s2,5OO, 900 francs, OF
about Ss6,5OO,OO0. The combined CAPT
talization of the Bank Of France, In,

Comprehensive Reports on the
Southern Oil Fields to Be
Made for the Manu-
facturers' Record

The Manufacturers Record of last
week says:
The Texas oil field promises to have
a revOlutionizing effect upon the
Southwest, and to create a most re-
markable industrial and railroad growth
in that section. 1t may broadly affect
the worlds industrial life. Certainly
it will work mighty change in very
Large part OF the South, at d it will
stimulate the whole South to search
.or oil. We seem to be entering upon
an oil age, in which the introduction
of this cheap fuel will very greatly add
to the wealth of the South. With a
view, therefore, TO the broadcast possible
study OF all the great questions arising
out # this TC xas discovery, questions
OF international interest, the Manufac-
turers' Record mas secured the services
of Mr. G.. +. u Caracrsti, G. Z. + NJ,
who has presumably studied nearly all
OF the known oil fields Of the world, to
investigate and make a series of COM
prehensive reports upon the Texas and
Louisiana oil fields. These reports
will be written exclusively for the
Manufacturers Record. which under
takes this expensive work for the gen
eral good of the South. 1t is possible
that the other oil fields of the South
may also be covered by Mr.. Caracrisi.
The conditions of this engagement, in
which Mr. Caracristi undertakes to
make this investigation, are that his
reports are not in any way to deal
with individual properties, but with
the field at large, as expressed in the
following letter to the editor OF the
NJ manufacturers Record:
DEAR SIR-Replying to your enquiry,
wish to say that l am now ready to
undertake the proposed examination of
the Southern petroleum fields for your
journal, and will start South for that
purpose tomorrow. 1t is understood,
however, that L am not to give techni-
cal reports on individual properties,
but to deal with the various oil fields to
be examined according to their worth
territorially, scientifically and COM
mercially. with special reference TO the
effect the product itself will have on
local and foreign conditions, and on the
existing fuel and Illuminating oils, etc,
of America and elsewhere.

THE SNOB IN SOCIETY.
Ultra a-Exclusivene.s of Persons Who I'm.

Observation-Disclosures of Persons Who I'm.
agine Themselves Social Leaders.
The accepted definition of "snob,"
together with its attendant adjective
"snobbish," is not the same in Ameri-
ca as in England. On the other side it
means social pretense of some kind.
and Thackeray has shown under that
head what a great variety of the spe-
cies there is. But with us it does not
necessarily include pretense. When
we call a person snob the idea in
tended to be conveyed is that he or
she is ultra exclusive and wishes to
associate only with persons who are
considered very smart In fact. to be
smart" person must necessarily be
somewhat snobbish, according to the
American acceptance of the word, for
extreme eXclusiveness is even more
necessary to the maintenance of a
smart set in republic than in places
where the lines are defined by rank.
The so-called Four Hundred is. as
everyone knows, divided up into any
number of sets and cliques, but new
ertheless, despite assertions to the
contrary, there is always one set that
is fashionably paramount. That is to
say, invitations from it's leaders are
more priced than any others, and to be
admitted within it's limits is coveted
honor. And here we come back to our
accepted definition of the word
'snob." People who make an effort to
get into this society, and by so doing
overlook and neglect old friends, are
termed snobbish. while the members
themselves, who have no desire to en-
large their small coterie or to hide
their Indifference to the world at
large. come under the same classifica-
ton. Thackeray's people, with their
miserable little attempts to pass them
selves off for others than they are
land we may safely assert that there
are more of that ilk in England than
America, we would call cads-so that
the use of either term by an American
does not necessarily convey the same
idea as when spoken by an English
man-New York Tribune,
