was in this condition for two years

TURNED OWN

The unanimous refusal of elections
committee No. | to ever entertain
the Taylor resolution relative to Mr..
Glass settles the fate of Crumpacker-
ism in the present Congress. Mr..
Glass, of Lynchburg, Va, was elected
to fill a vacancy, and when his ere
dentials yer presented in the house
Representative Taylor, of Ohio, Of
fered a resolution calling upon cleo
tons committee No. / to institute a
Crumpacker Investigation of Vir-
ginia's constitution and election laws.
The resolution was referred to the
committee in question, together with
MI. Glass credentials, and that coEa-
mittee has decided to squelch the
resolution, and to report in favor of
the seating of MI. Glass. The Lynch
burg member will be sworn in in
due season, and no Crumpacker in
vestigation will be attempted. This
postpones the crusade of the Indian
ian to next December at any rate.
AT the same time the circuit court
of the United States, presided over
by Chief Justice Fuller, has thrown
out of court the suit begun to test
Virginia's new constitution, and par
ticularly the suffrage scheme. The
case was thrown out because it was
one brought by a citizen against the
State, and the Federal Courts lack
Jurisdiction in such cases. The plain
tiff was told to seek justice in the
State courts. An appeal will be
taken, and the broad question will
of course come up in the Supreme
court; but no good lawyer expects to
see the new Southern Constitutions
upset, although the effect of the war
amendments in limiting action by
the States as to suffrage has not been
fully passed upon by the great and
final court.

A MARVEL in FINANCE.
Colossal Profits of a New York
Banking House.
RICH RETURNS FOR THE PARTNERS

RrIvate Firm 81 100000
ed States Steel OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Partners Share Alone Amounted
to rs Per Cent of Earnings.
On one Of the news slips that are left
Internationally during the day at almost
Ill Of the Office of bankers and brokers
On New York there appeared the other
lMfternoon a paragraph substantially as
tSo1lows, writes Holland, the regular
correspondent OF the Philadelphia
Press, under the date OF Jan %: cit is
&he understanding that n New York
Banking house earned during the year
1901 profits aggregating $17,0OO,OOO ex-
elusive of the profit that may come to
Iehis banking house as a member of the
United States Steel Financial Under
writing syndicate"
This little paragraph is an echo Of a
report which is quite generally believed
to be accurate and which has been in
circulation in the Wall street district
for some ten days or two weeks. The
inn1y difference between the imprinted
rumor and the brief news paragraph
circulated the other day is that the re-
port hat circulated from mouth to
mouth was more definite as to figures
and as to the identity Of the banking
house which comprised this unparal-
leled achievement.
The earlier report put the figure rep
r~esenting the profits at SIT, 100000 and
mentioned the name Of the banking
house which had experienced this un-
noroI1nJo6 GOOD f0T+r7nn Tho n,~infod
slip did no more than to hint at the
partnership name of this banking COM
pany. Yet every one associated the re-
port with the pre-eminently active and
organizing banking institution in New
York city, whose chief and Junior part
ners have had conspicuous part in vari-
pus organizations and reorganizations
In the past ten or twelve years.
The exclusion Of the earnings Of the
United States Steel Underwriting syn
dicate from this estimate is probably
due to b fact that, while this syndi-
cate has been practically lfquidated,
the pool disbanded and probably a lar.
ger part If not all of the profits have
been received, nevertheless the syndi-
cate has not been formally disbanded
and its affairs permanently closed.
OF course, the report has been the
main subject of discussion and Of COM
,partson with other great achievements
ID the way Of rich earnings all through
the financial district. 1t is said that
these figures represent a reasonable in
eonse upon a capitalization of $500 ,00O,-
coo, SO that, looking at the matter from
this point Of view, this banking institu-
zion stands relatively second to the
United States Steel corporation itself,
at least so far as capitalization is con
eerned. if the partnership were to be
capitalized upon the basis Of 6 per cent
return.
Tie report asserts that of these CO.
losaeI earnings the senior partner re-
0eived 70 per cent, one of his associates
one-seventeenth. or in round numbers
$4,000 and among the other associ-
ates Or junior partners $3.OOO,O 900 is to
be divided, making for each Of them in
the n~eighborhood of S5OO,O 600 as their
Fctrrn for Tho years business.
