U. $. LEADS THE WORLD IN WEALTH Sir George Paish, statisti- clan, Proves American
 Superiority.
IS GROWING RICHER
Increase in Population Keeps Pace With DOllars-In Big Banks. Though, This Country
 Lags Behind.

London, July 2.-The wealth of the United States-income producing property of all kinds, including land, factories and railroads-is now not far from double that of any other country on the earth, according to Sir George Palsh of the Statist. He fig ures that the increase in wealth of the four chief nations in the last cen tury has been 58O per cent, in Britain, 400 per cent, in France, 700 per cent, in Germany and $500 per cent in the United States. The wealth of these countries now stands, he says, as fol- lows:
 Germany - ......... 80,000, ,000, ,000 Britain :. .................... 85,OO0, ,OO0, 900 United States . ............. 15O,00O, ,000, 900
 The increases in population in these four countrie sin the last century have been as follows: 13 per cent in Brit ain, B per cent in France, 18O per cent in Germany, and 1,125 per cent in the United States. The annual savings of these peoples is now about as follows:
 France :. ..................$1,0 $1 ,00a 0OO, ,000 Germany :. ........................ 1,50O,0OO, ,000 Britain . ...................... 2,O00. .O0O 900 United States :. ............. 4,O0O, 900 ,0OO
 The expansion of banking and credits, Sir George says. is responsi- ble for these vast increases in na- ticnal wealth and industrial develop ment. About $2.25O.0 100000 of British 3c {,, fhn Iic count of international bills, and at least $20,000, 100000 of British capital is yearly invested in colonial and for eign countries France yearly invests over $400,00O.000 abroad, and now has total of $10.000 900. .O0O thus invested. Germany's foreign investments are $250.000.000 year and now total $S.- O00.O0O,0o0.
 In the whole of North and South America there is now invested s2O.- O00,000,O0O of foreign capital. includ- ing the investments of the United States in Mexico, Canada and other countries. About $6.000.0O0,0O0 of foreign capital is invested in the United States: $3.50O.OOO.OOO invested in Canada: $2,50O, 100000 in Argen- tina. and $1,5O0. 100000 in Brazil; $2,- 500,000,00 in Australia and New Zea- land, and $2,500, 0,000,000 in South Africa. About $4,000.0O0.000 of for eign capital is invested in Russia.
 Of the foreign capital in Argentina, about $1.455.000,00 was supplied by Britain. $395.000,000 by France sand $500. 100000 by by Germany.
 The Concentration of capital in fbig" banks has been much less in the United States than in foreign countries. According to Sir George no New York bank occupies place ih the first sixteen banks in the world. These sixteen and their de posits are:
