The Rothschilds have handled millions in
the shape of loans for the great countries OF
the world They have taken government
bonds by the bushel and peddled them out
by the piece. They have placed more than
$1,000, 900 900 worth of securities for Great
Britain within the last 100 years. They
have placed $3.50 100000 for Austria, $780,
900 900 for Prussia, $500 900, 900 for France
5000, ,OOO, 900 for Italy and smaller amounts
for the different South American states

will have 1t no more. Europe can now
raise money in a score Of ways that were
not known a half century ago. Its saw
ings bank systems swallow up vast amounts
of government bonds, and there is plenty of

Rothschids are still powerful, but their
power Is on the wane.
Frankfort has long been noted as finan-
cial center. 1t has more banks in proper
tion to its population than any other city
of Europe, and n has been a school for the
bankers of the world. There are many
bankers in the United States who have
come from here; and, indeed, 1t is said that

which is still one Of the strongest of the
world. Nathan Mayer came to England
and opened a bank at Manchester, which
he afterwards removed to London. The
fourth son, Charles, founded a house at
Naples and the fifth established one at
Paris. All of these banks worked together.
The children of the different sons inter-
married and the fortune has as far as pos
aible been kept intact. The descendants OF
each son have their own property, but rs
far as financial investments are concerned
any one can rely upon the others to help
him.
Today the English branch is perhaps the
most important, the Naples and the Frank
fort houses having been discontinued. This
was founded by Nathan Mayer Rothschild
who was a cloth merchant in Frankfort
part of his life. Much of his cloth was
brought from England, and the trade in
certain patterns was controlled by one man
who had crusty business methods and who
for some reason or other refused to deal
with young Rothschild. The result was that
Rothschild went to Manchester to buy
goods. He at once saw the opportunities
for money making there and stayed and
opened bank. The bank paid He moved
it to London and did better and at the end
Of FIVE years was worth $1,000, 900. $50
He then went into speculation on plo"u
scale. He bought and sold stocks, and at
the time Of the battle Of Waterloo made
81, 600 900 in one day out Of advance news
OF Napoleon's defeat. He sat on his horse
and watched the battle, and as soon as he
saw that Napoleon was defeated he rode
post haste for the English. channel. He
had relays of horses and galloped night
and day. He paid $4OO to a boatman to
carry him across to England and then he
took the horses and galloped on to London.
When he came on the stock exchange he
looked sad and in strict confidence told how
Blucher had been defeated by Napoleon,
neglecting to mention Napoleon's defeat
later on. The result was that stocks went
down like a shot, and ROthschild through
his secret agents was able to buy enough
to make this enormous sum.
This Nathan Rothschild had several prin-
ciples of business success. He believed
like Andrew Carnegie, in putting your eggs
into a single basket and watching that bas-
ket. At one OF his dinners a guest said ia
him that no hoped the Rothschild chill
dren would not be fond OF money and bust
ness to the exclusion OF more important
things. Said Rothschild:

THREE ROADS GRANT
SPECIAL LABOR
RATES
Chicago Lines Give Reduced
Fare to Workingmen Tray
cling In Parties of Ten and
Oye1-Southern Railroad $
Secure Laborers In St.
Paul and Minneapolis.

Although the Western Passenger as
ISOLATION has not yet announced rate
for labor traffic between the Twin
Cities and Chicago, several of the Chi
cago lines have adopted labor sched-
ules and filed them with the interstate
commerce commission. The Chicago
Great Western, Omaha and Wisconsin
Central have granted a rate of $S.05
for parties of ten and over travelling
on one ticket and Sc rate where the
number exceeds fifty.
At the Milwaukee and Burlington Of
fees it was said yesterday that neither
road made a labor rate to Chicago, but
We're waiting for instructions from the
Chicago offices. The Great Western
issued a circular yesterday announcing
the special rate, and was followed by
the Omaha. The Wisconsin Central
has been selling the reduced rate tick
cts for several days, having filed it's
new schedule with the interstate COM
merce commission last week.
To the St. Paul officials, the granting
of a special labor rate to Chicago, is a
decidedly new proposition. In former
years the lines in the Northwest were
obliged to seek help in Chicago and
Eastern cities. However, this spring
several of the Southern roads have
had agents in st. Paul and Minneap-
oils, employing men to work on rail
road extensions throughout Illinois, In
diana and Ohio.
Two weeks ago the Southern and
Eastern lines made their first recruit
ing expedition to the Twin Cities,
when the Wabash awarded a grading
contract to the Winston company, of
Minneapolis. Railroad labor was so
scare in Chicago that the Winston peo-
pie We're obliged to ship men from
Minneapolis and st. Paul. The COM
pany applied to the Wisconsin Central
for special rate and were granted a
fare of $8.05 for a party of ten and Sc
for a contingent numbering fifty or
over
Other contractors, working south and
east of Chicago, then entered the
Northwest field to secure labor and
application was made to the Western
Passenger association to adopt labor
schedule. No action was taken by the
association and yesterday the Omaha
and Great Western followed the Wis
Consin Central lead and announced an
$S.05 and Sc rate.
The question of establishing a labor
rate for all the Chicago roads will
probably be settled at the meeting Of
the Western Passenger association, now
in Chicago. If a rate is not establish
lished by the association it is eX-
pected that the roads running to Chi
cago, which have not yet announced .
special schedule, will adopt the same
rate as published by the Chicago Great
Western, Wisconsin Central and
Omaha.
The labor rate from Chicago to st.
Paul and Minneapolis is $5.75, where
parties numbering fifty or over travel
on one ticket.
