Special Correspondence o; The Sunday Republic
New York. Dec 1T was In the Chem
ical National Bank. on lower Broadway.
that I had my second interview With the
richest woman OF the world
The first was held seven years ago, when
Mrs Hetty Green In the midst of the
hard times. was worth perhaps $5o.ooo, 600.
1t was then estimated that her income
was 5000 day, more than 500 an hour,
day and every night.
Since then she has prospered with our
prosperity. and what she ix worth to-day
no one but herself knows
! doubt II even she could tell offhand
She is 20 busy watching those who are
trying to get what she has, and investing
the surplus to make more, that she does
not stop to take account OF stock. She
said to me to-day that she found Il far
easier to make money than to keep It, and
that she kept on making because she liked
the game and wanted to be In the thick
OF things.
When asked how long she would con-
tinue at It she replied Just as long as the
dear Lord gave her the mental and phys
ical strength to do 80.
IN THE CHEMICAL NATIONAL.
When ! called by appointment at the
bank to-day was told to present my card
at the last window In the brass network
which walled the customers out of the
millions behind.

Green's confidential clerk. who was busy
