An Inside View on
 Wall Street Persons

Mexico where he expects to spend the next few weeks. In view of the fact that heads of other industrial corporations have recently booked considerable Mexican business, it would not be at aH surprising if the Judge came back with some orders for steel in his pocket President vauclain of tks Baldwin Locomo- tive Works, it 1s,Nhispered, has had a successful trtps to Mexico. It is significant that Tom Lamont, of the Morgan firm, intends to visit Mexico shortly on a visit of ,an official nature.
 Mayfower in Greater Use.
 Unlike his predecessor, President Harding has been enjoying frequent trips on the Mayflower the past few months when his official duties per nit Former President Wilson used the chief executives boat very rare ly During the last year or so of his term, when he was confined to the White House with illness, the yacht seldom left the navy yard at Wash ington The Mayfiowcr is one of the finest boats of it's type afioat and always ready at moments mo- tice to take the President wherever he cares to go.
 Out1awed Estates.
 The deal that an American syndi- cate is said to be putting through, in the option on the outlawed con tinental properties of''the Arctlduke Frederick of Austria, brings to mind similar happening in the early days of our Republic.
 The properties, both real and per son, of the Roger Morris family were declared outlave ed because he was loyalist. The head of the fam ily,' 'who lived in England, died and John Jacob Astor bought from his children for G2O,O00 all rights to the outlawed property. He then brought a series of suits to prove ! that although the parents property could be seized this did not mean that he children could be held dis loyal to the Republic because they were under age at the time. After fighting the suits in the courts of this country for 16 years, the willy fur trader was awarded over $500, 900 for his purchased claims.
 Samuel Untermeyer.
 That Samuel Untermeyer is highly recognized as an international law CT is apparent from a reading of the cables telling of his selection to rep resent an American syndicate in the purchase of certain properties from the Hapsburgs of Austria. as Untermeyer, dozen or fifteen years ago, was the American repre- sentative of a number of British in vestments in this country extending | from breweries to flour mills and copper mines. Through this affilia- tiOn his fortune was greatly enr hanced A $1,000,00O fee is regard ed as not unlikely in connection with his present trip abroad for the Rcplogle Munsey Sabin syndicate, which would compare with an $800,- the Boston Consolidated Mining Co.,, | largely held in London, into the Utah Copper Co.
 A Morning Bracer.
 All business men have a hobby, but few indulge in it before going to the office. However, Col. Howard $. Borden of M. C. D. Borden X Sons, vice-president of the Ameri- can Printing Co.,, and a director of the Lincoln National Bank of New York, takes seaplane flight at nine o'clock each morning.
 The commuters on the boat from Atlantic Highlands to Manhattan make a practice of giving him a cheer as he passes them in his flying boat by margin of only few yards. Col. Borden is generally driv- en by pilot though he often takes the stick himself
 Livermore the Leader. Close friends of Jesse LivermOre insist that he still committed to the bull side of the market and that his manipulations, directed from his private offices with Hartman x Co.,. have been the. principal influence of late In movements on the Stock EX- change. He particularly favors Lo- comotlve, Woolen and Baldwin. Some of the so-called Livermore fav- oriate embrace few rails but these three have been his pets.
 Actively assisting the recent rise have also been George J. Whelan. the tobacco man. w. c. Durant, Josh Cosden and J. l.. Replogle, while Charlie Schwab has been furnishing some capital. But the chief leader IS Livermore who is displaying as much courage and possibly as much foresight as he did in attacking the market all through 1920 and this year.
 A Profit for Fritz.
 Wall Street hears that Honey" F1tz has made profit. this time not Tn Wall Street. It hears that he has sold his house in Hull under the fog horn of Boston light for $4O,OOO cash which was 40 per cent more than it cost him, but the original cost to somebody was $1OO,OOO.
