Till his great angel calls
Til the summons falls,
Guarding your holy halls,

NEARLY s2,oOooOO,OOO INVOLVED.

This AMOUNT Is the Par Value Of
Stocks and Bonds-some s8oo.0OO.-
600 cash Tied Up In Operations Of
Underwriting syndieates aud Pro-
motors.
J. r Morgan recently called the at
tention OF the financial world to the
ailment from which Wall street is suf-
fering, says the New York Herald. He
said it was suffering from indigestion.
that there were too many -undigested
securities" and since that time the
capitals Of two continents have been
ringing with the term.
In a list Of some Of the leading secu-
rites which have been issued by New
York bankers and capitalists and which
is here given it viii be seen that near
" S2.000,OO0,000 is involved in undi-
gested securities. This amount is the
par value Of the stocks and bonds and
does not represent the exact amount OF
capital tied up in the various enter
prises. 1t is safe TO say, however, that
fully S30O.OO00o0 capital is tied up in
ventures against which securities have
been issued. In the following list 1t
will be seen that in some cases an esu-
mate is made of the undigested stocks
and bonds, while in other cases the en-
tire amount Of capital is given, for tho
reason that Wall street has regarded
them as undigested.

one thing that annoys them Is that
they are compelled to hide their pretty
faces behind unprepossessing masks,
but this, III the opinion Of the fencing

with the splendid result Of the vigorous
