is A YANKEE INVASION

A prominent banker ana capitalist OF
Paris. one OF the group Interested In
the exploitation OF the French African
colonies, stated 10 the Brussels CORE
spondent OF the New York sun that the
entrance of Thomas F. Ryan and bis
associates into the field OF African de

most important movements IN many
years.
Although there is some OF the usual
talk about the Yankee INVASION he
said, "there are some solid reasons why
European investors In foreign countries
are glad OF this movement For one
thing, we regard II as evidence OF con
ndence in the commercial and financial
stability OF our colonies, Then, too. II
affords US the opportunity To- demon
strate to the Americans the need of
reliable and responsible government in
the undeveloped parts Of the world
where European or American capital
may be invested.
For example. when Americans have
substantial Investments In any OF our
African colonies they can better appre-
ciate our desire for responsible and
conservative government In South
America. where some OF us have very
large interests. We know that the
Americans have no political intentions
In Africa, 80 that their commercial In
terests In that continent win stand re-
lated to the European powers exactly
as our commercial interests across the
Atlantic are related to American pow

An English capitalist interested In
Africa when told the views OF the Paris
financier practically agreed with him.

useful to us in South Africa" he said.

in finding a good many Of them, and
you would have to search harder for
profits.
Let us take concrete case which
shows the way of most of these COM
panies. During the height of the
anti-Standard Oil excitement in Kan
sas in 1905 large company was for
med with headquarters in the midst
of the oil region. The promoters
owned a few wells that promised
much" An elaborate advertising
campaign was started Full-page adj
vertisements were printed in leading
newspapers all over the country Of
fering the stock at twenty-five and
forty cents share and promising
great profits. Thousands of people
bought shares. Altogether. the COM
pany took in more than one million
dollars in cash.
But all the money was coming in
and precious little going out to the
stockholders. Some of them got an
xious and applied for a receiver. Then
the company collapsed. 1t developed
that while more than million dollars
had been taken in, just exactly ten
thousand five hundred dollars had
been paid out in dividends. The pro-
moters had spent quarter of mil
lion dollars in advertising. All that
the great majority of stockholders
received was the certificate of stock,
which was handsomely engraved.
So with hundreds of other COM
panies that deluded the investor
with promises of quick profits. Of
course, much money has been made
in oil; but, as in the case of the Ne
vada goldfelds, many of the big
Strikes" were made by individuals
who got private capital to develop
them, and the public did not have
chance to get in. Besides, there was
always the Standard Oil Company
ready to take the lions share of the
finds.

BUNCOED IN OIL.

1t was before the day in which
Standard Oil was christened, bur not
before the business world was amazed
at the vast outputs of oil in Pennsyl
vania and Ohio. One bright April
morning, at work in my field as far
mer, there came over the still air the
soft, mellow notes of a flute-the air
of Annie Laurie, followed by other
pieces of od-time music. This con-
tinued day after day, until curiosity
as we'll as business led me to an in
terview with the musician.
On the roadside, quarter of
mile away from my field, lying be-
meath a couple of broad boards raised
on stakes at one end, with a blanket
or two and sack of hay for pillow and
bed, kettle, frying-pan and coffee
pot in which to cook his frugal meals,
was the person who had charmed me
with his flute. His sole business rur-
suit was, in local mining terms, goph-
ering for lead-that is, digging such
holes with pick and shovel as one
man could put through soil and gravel
on lines distinctly marked by ochre,
which, if not always, is frequently
associated with the lead mines OF
Wisconsin. There was some lead
about, as knew, having myself often
picked up little cubes of ore styled
float mineral In such manner this
humble, civil, suave person passed
the summer away.
The next time I saw him, however,
1t was i'll new role. 1t was late aut-
umn, in the beautiful little city of
Prairie du Chen, and l had sold my
load of oats at the principal hotel in
the town. In its office were many
business men, and in the midst OF
these was my quondam acquaintance,
