New York, May ss--(Special. )--Mcre rnonev masses the corner of Broad and Wall streets in New York's financial district than any other single point in the world.
 According to an estimate that has just been made. the amount of money moving pass this corner every minute of the working day is sso0.o0o or ss0,00o for every tick of the clock This tremendous wealth Is the. daily contribution from Wall Street to the Sub Treasury of the United States. Approxinately one-third of it goes by in gold and currency and two-thirds in checks. sss M
 The precautions which are taken to guard this tremendous store of wealth are as little understood as they are unobtrusive. Messengers carrying mii- lions pass this corner every moment unobserved except by the paid shadows" employed to watch and guard the money-bearers.
 While all this money--enough every day to pay the national bebt and q few other things. is at large the old method of safe guarding 1t is no longer in envidence ever since an express company bringing shipment of $7.o00.0o0 in gold to the sub trea- sury forwarded 1t in wagons on which sat men armed with winchester rifles the old method has gone out of vogue.
 The result of this single case killed 1t for such a mob collected, attracted by the sight of armed men, that 1t was impossible ti unload the coin. As a result a new style of garding his treasure has grown up. Few people realize that when they pass the sub treasury they are passing a veritable fortress. Such, however, Is the de- posted behind giant doors which weigh 10000 pounds each and cost $30, 900.
 Within the sub treasury there Is an armament of 100 rifle with 12.O00 rounds of cartridges, 100 revolvers with 1900 rounds and cteif of all { gatling guns with 22,000 rounds of ammunition. With this armament any attacking mob could be repulsed in a few moments. Tn addition there are in this chamber of wealth 150O bombs with cunningly arranged pep holes through which they can be dropped.
 A single shot in Wall Street would call out a company of protectors and a fusliade would sumon a regment to protect the wealth which flows by the corner in the greatest stream of gold in the world.
 While ocean liners have come to have practically all the comforts and conveniences of life on shore, including daily newspapers publishing. wireless reports and, on the newest vessels, telephones connecting all parts of the ship, 1t has been found possible to introduce still another wrinkle which Is shortly to be put into operation. This is an arrangement by which the big liners will be connected by tele- phone with the shore the moment they Dut Into their docks at New York and until the lines are cast off on the out ward journey.
 within a short time therefore it will be possible for the traveller to Europe to say goodbye to his family and friends the last instant before the liner leaves shore or to greet them before he leaves his stateroom on ar- rival no matter whather they are in New York or halfway across the con- tinent.
 As President Wall of the telephone company says that the value of the telephone to any given person depends upon the number of others with whom it enables him to communicate, this should be a great boom to voyagers for 1t will put them into direct touch with every part of the country west to the Missouri and will place at their disposal five-sixths of the nearly 5000, 900 miles of wire in the great Bell system.
