PR|NCELY
SALARIES

Salaries paid to public officials in
the richest countries often compare
poorly with those which public func-
tionaries receive In the realms near
est bankruptcy. The Turkish minis
ter of finance has $4,000 year.
Even he. however, is less we'll paid
than the official who Is In charge of
the admiralty. His salary IL as5,
900 year, and the pickings are so
plentiful that the present holder Is
said to have piled up the neat little
fortune Of sl2,O0O,O00.
without doubt, however. the best
paid statesman on earth Is the grand
vizier of Morocco. Ben Hamed, the
recently deceased holder of the
vizierate, left sum equal to nearly
$40, 100000. 1t was stored in gold
bullion In the cellars of his palace at
Marakesh.
Compared with riches such as those
of these eastern statesmen, the $780,
900 which the president of the
United States receives Is poor sum,
even though 1t is backed by free resi-
dence in the White House, and q
handsome allowance for entertaining
foreigners OF distinction.
A very few years ago the great in
comes Of state officials we're looked
upon with envy az quite unapproach-
able by salaried workers in private
life. Today there are number Of
the latter whose emoiuments abso.
lutely dwarf even such q salary "a
that Of the president of the United
States.
There is a man who received an
offer Of the large salary Of 5000, 600
a year, and. incredible as 1t may
seem, refused It. This is Herr
Ballin, the gifted German. who is
managing director Of the Hamburg.
American line Of steamers.
A dozen years ago the public had
never heard Of Clinton Dawkins, Of
London. Then he became Mr..
Goschen's private secretary of I'm
ance In Egypt. There, aud later on
In India, he made great name as a
financial expert. His fame attracted
the notice of J. s. Morgan Il Com
pany. He now draws 5000, 900 a year
in their service. His Is said to be
the biggest salary paid by any bank.
There are not more than three
ba nix managers In England who get
one fifth Of Mr.. Dawkins' salary.
The great life insurance companies
pay very high figures to the men who
control their Investments. The two
largest In the world each allow their
presidents $3.50, 900 year.
The richest corporation In the
world is said to be the Standard Oil
Trust. John ID. Rockefeller is presi-
dent. But the sl5,0OO,O00 which
forms his yearly income from the
holdings Is not salary, but interest.
His vice president, however, Alex.
ander Mcdonald, u Scot, with mar
velous head for finance, receives q
regular salary Of 100000 a year,
aud has bis fare paid to Russia or
Burmah whenever he wishes to in.
spect the oil fields Of rival cOnpa.
MES.
Railway companies are not stingy.
J. Pierpont Morgan paid Samuel
Spencer $50, 900 year to give ex-
pert opinions on the railway proper
ties he was buying up.
As managing director Of the Con.
solidsted GoldHelds Of South Africa,
Ltd, MIR. Rhodes used to get about
