whose operations are recalled by the
Ponzi speculative scheme in Boston.
He was John Law, a Scotsman, who
through his friendship with the duke
of Orleans, established a credit bank
on the theory that money is the cause,
not the result of wealth. He obtained
for the bank monopoly of the ma
TONS foreign trade, the profits Of
which would repay the investors.
In 1T16 Law established a private
bank with a capital of 100000 livres.
with power to issue notes. 1t became
an instant success, and his paper cur
rency became more valuable than the
minted currency of the government.
Then he formed his company of the
west, developing Louisiana territory,
with a capital of 100.000,000 Iivres.
New Orleans was built. Trade ex-
banded. Shares in the company rose
In value until first Paris and then the
whole Of Europe went mad. Every
one was growing rich. Law hecame
director e ,neral of finance for France.
But the height was reached In De-
cember of l719, when his enemies, by
side schemes, began to break him. He
suddenly found himself bankrupt. He
escaped from France, became wan
derer and died in poverty.
