 Tracy Lay, a Gadsden man, has been promoted to consul of the eighth class at Paris. The information came in a cablegram to Captain w. P, Lay, his father, today. MT. Lay has had a re- markable career in the consular service, especially in view of the fact that he has declined from influential friends at Wash ington to work for his promotion. He says he desires advancement only through his own merit.
 The Coosa river today reached a stage of 28 feet at Gadsden, but it is believed that it will pass it's crest without going
 more than a foot higher. Farmers in
 many sections of the county are pre- vented from reaching Gadsden because

 Hundred Million SON IS DEMOCRATIC

By HOLLAND

New York, July I1.-?(SpeciaD. .-Colonel Edward Rowland Robinson Green is now in possession of capital and resources ot such magnitude that should he wish to demonstrate his power as a leader of affairs he would have abundant op- portunity to do that.
 Nevertheless in the financial district the presumption prevails that Colonel Green will not depart in any way from the example and instructions of his mother, Mrs. Hetty Green. In one respect he may not be found thoroughly to have adopted some of her principles of economic con duct Mrs. Green was not a miserly woman, but she had an extraordinary gift for making every penny count and for preventing waste. In that respect she resemble Russell Sage. although Sage when ang man had litle or nothing and therefore made every penny count. while Mrs. Green in her girlhood and early womanhood inherited some millions.
 Colonel Green is one of the most demo- cratic of men and one characteristic which has made him very popular is his keen appreciation of humor and his dis position always to indulge in it when opportunity opened. In all probability, he Will find his chief responsibility and em- ployment in conserving the estate and the properties which have come under his direct control. He may be able to dc what George Gould is understood to have accomplished as trustee of the Gould estate. For MT. Gould is pre- stunned, by prudent husbandry of re- sources and by accepting large and re- munerative opportunities to have doubled
 the Gould estate by about s75,0O0,0 ,0oO Business men who have been in associa- ton with Colonel Green speak in high terms of his prudence, excellent Judgment and absolute command of himself
 It will never be known probably what the value, measured in dollars, of the fortune accumulated by Hetty Green was. In this respect, however, the Green estate does not differ from some of the other large estates which were accumu- lated by citizens of New York after the big development of our great resources and our railroads began. No one ever knew accurately what the estate accumu- lated by Commodore Vanderbilt was. Not even his relative, the late Samuel Bar ton, who assisted in administering part of the estate was able to tell what the aggregate estate of the commodore was. MT. Barton assumed that ninety millions of the estate passed into the possession of William H. Vanderbilt, who kept that sum intact so that it might be divided nelius Vanderbilt and William K Van derblt. Forty-five millions, according to the understanding of MT. Barton, was the ninety millions was not all of Con1- pda tot

THE VANDERBILT FORTUNE

No one was ever able to tell accurately
 what the estate of William H. Wander
 bilt, measured in dollars, was The req
 sons were excellent, however, for pre-
 suming that MT. Vanderbilt accumulated
 about hundred and thirty millions
 Some of the estates of men of millions, but not many millions, have always re- nained closed books. The late Commo- dore Van Santvoord was presumed to have left an estate of about $.vo,- GOO GOO. But that presumption was about all that was known about it.
 Of course in New York state some definite information is obtained by the operation of inheritance tax, but 1t is informant insufficient on which to base an accurate judgment upon the total value of an estate Moreover it some- times happens that securities which were appraised for state tax purposes at cer- | tain tow figures afterward appreciated greatly in value, and these were securi- | ties that were parts of estates upon | which the tax was levied. That is under stood to have been the case with the estate of Collis P Huntington. At the | time it was inventored, the average market quotation for securities was re- | latively speaking, low Afterward there came great appreciation in security values, great enough, according to the common understanding, to have increa sed the money value of the Huntington estates from $S,OO0,OO0 to s1o0o0, OO0
 At the time of the leath of Russell
 Sage and perhaps a year or two later, quotations for market securities were lower than they were after several years had passed The appreciation is urtar- stood to have begun after the Sage estate had paid the inheritance tax. a small one in view of the fact that Mrs. Sage was. with the exception of few minor benefciaries. the sole beneficiary of the estate. She has devoted large sums to
 to phianthropies and there have oeen some fairly profitable sales of securities
 which in MT. Sage's life time were deem eo almost worthless.
 Mrs. Greens estate will be compelled to yield some information to the state of New York and perhaps some other states. But it seems likely that no in- formation will be obtained which twill positively justify any of the estimates
 of the amount of the fortune she ac- cumulated. Some think it quite as likely to be two hundred millions as one hun | dred millions. but there is no estimate | smaller than hundred millions. What | ever the amount may be, 1t was all ac- 1 cumulated, excepting about $40 ,0000 to | S5, 100000 which Mrs. Green inherited | by woman who demonstrated | by her career that it is possible for a | woman to succeed well in building ur | large fortunes as any man has done.
 | In the last thirty years of Mrs. Green s | life, she had ability if she were so dis

posed greatly to influence the money market, at least until the Federal Re serve bank law was enacted. There IS no evidence that she ever did this although some of the veterans of the Wall street district have reason to be- lieve that at times she did, with great ability and success influence the securi- ties market. None in the Wal streel district believes that her son. Colonel Green, will be tempted in like nannel to test his power in the securities mar ket, The day any one man or Tn rac' any group of men can control the money market has passed.
