A COLOSSAL
ENTERPRISE
j. Pierpoinf Morgan Organizing
Angio-AmericaH Bank.
BILLION DOLLAR CAPITAL.

London, june 1t is reported
this morning that j Pierpoint
Morgan is organizing an Anglo
American bank with capitaliza-
ton of one billion dollars. This
colossal enterprise fairly staggers
Englishmen, but in view of Nor
gan's recent financial doings it
does not surprise them.
Mr. Morgan proposes 10 com
biue all the Anglo-American banks
in England and America. Some
idea of the monumental character
of the enterprise can be learned
from the fact that the combined
capital of the Bank of England,
Bank of France and Bank of
Germany is not tenth of Nor
gan's proposed institution, lE
fact Morgan's bank will equal
almost all the other banks in the
world.
