leading up to that city's becoming the worlds

Another great impetus in that direction is the
immense concentration of accumulated wealth here.
Another advantage is the fire and burglar

and securities absolutely safe from every kind of
danger What New York now needs more than
anything else make its harbor the greatest in the

control at least one-third of the world gold and

The primary factor in bringing about the change
is the Russo Japanese War. Apart from the great
loss of human life which it has involved, it has

blessings to all nations and the world at large
The reason is that it seems much like the last of

fact 1t is finality of settlement not only in the

the great, portentous shadow over Europe through
out the nineteenth century, has been shown,
strategicay, to be Colossus weak and inert.
Starting out, grandiloquently and contemptuously,
to drive the japanese into the sea, she has been
whipped to humiliation by pygmy nation that has
known only fifty years of civilization. Within her
own borders has arisen social whose end no
