CURIOUS BASIS OF A FORTUNE.
How the Millions of John Lowber Welsh
Were Accumulated.

The death of Philadelphia's richest
citizen. John Lowber Welsh. brought out
the curious method by which a part of
his great fortune, estimated at $4,000
U00 was amassed. He was, early in his
business life, a member of the mercantile
firm of S. Il j. Welsh, who traded In
Cuban products and exchanged them for
merchandise, which they sent back to
The island. They were also fiscal agents
for many rich Cuban planters. Ship
loads of sugar came to Philadelphia and
the Welsh firm sent back shiploads OF
merchandise.
Often the ship would carry n cargo Of
money. An American 1O-cent piece
passed for an English siXpenCe in Cuba.
and two American dimes made shilling.
Welsh made a handsome profit, there
fore, on dimes sent south. lie employed
large firm of Philadelphia brokers to
procure dimes and Spanish doubloons.
Thousands of these coins would DO
bought every week. 1t was n profitable
trade for the house, and John Lowber
Welsh soon amasscd a big fortune
The following picturesque description
of Mr.. Welsh in his Office has been
given:
although bankers say Mr. Welsh was
worth $4,000, 600, he worked and acted
n his own office like any of his clerks.
A row of old-fashi0ned Office stools aro
in front Of long, slanting desk placed
against the wall. Mr.. Welsh occupied
one of these stools, and several clerks
sat beside him. Ii a customer walked in
to ask question Mr.. Welsh was As like
" as anyone to leave his stool and walk
to the counter. He always wore tam
colored pongce Office coat. New York

His wings are extended To the north.
cast and west Of Mukden. Thus far the
Russians have found little strength or
pressure from the Japanese center.
Oyama seems to ho moving with great

for rapid advance of both wings when
an attempt is made to close the net Al
though the imaginary line connecting the
