LoCH1SyARs OF FINANCE.

Young Lochinvar is coming out OF
the west and carrying off Wall street
from the very clutches of the old finan
ciers of the east.
Not only does London stand aghast
at the present bull movement in Amer
lean securities, but the old-timers of
Wall street, the experienced financiers
who have previously been to. the stock
market what the operator behind the
scenes is to a Punch and Judy show
have found the reins jerked out of their
hands and the situation entirely beyond
their control AS for London. which
used to be such a powerful factor. it is
now eliminated from the situation en-
tirely and English fnanciers, long ago
having gotten rid of their American Sc
curities at far below present prices, are
now standing by with their hands in
their pockets, watching open-mouthed
the progress of these same securities in
their soaring flight 1T would not be
much of an exaggeration," says the
New York Herald, to say that even Wall
street itself-the Wall street of former
days-is ceasing to be a factor to be
considered in calculating the future of
American stocks Young Lochinvans
are coming out of the west on special
express trains attended by bank presl-
dents and armed with apparently un-
limited credits and carrying away con-
troll of great corporations from the very
arms of their effete Eastern owners"
Wall street like the brides father in the
poem. challenges in vain the impetuous
newcomers. 1t mutters words of caution
and contracts its credits, but the West
ern men scott a cautions. open up their
strong boxes and cry. "On with the
dance,"-and as it proceeds Wall street is
beginning to forget its fears and is re-
entering the giddy whirl. However it
may end, this movement has revealed the
fact that as London has ceased to WELD
the financial sceptre over New York, SO
in like manner has New York ceased to
WELD it over the interior.
After long period of stagnation and
contraction the country has in five years
plunged forward generation. The eXpan-
sion of industries and the accumulation
of wealth is something stupendous.
Bankers fifteen hundred miles fYom the
Atlantic seaboard are lending money on
call in Wall street, and commission brok-
ers get orders to buy and ship blocks of
securities to investors in towns they
never heard of. Westward the course of
financial empire has taken its way with
a vengeancei The imitation of values and
expansion of credits have been enormous.
Every thoughtful person recognizes the
danger of scare in such a situation,
but the optimistic throng cries, There
isn't q cloud in the sky" and SCOTS at all
warnings-and the end is not in sight
