In Chicago, n srm larger than thut
employed In New York, according to
figures of rccont report paid for by
tho "Itussol Sago Foundation," or In

rates charged for small loans In New
York are tho highest tho actual
cot of short tlmo lonns, when oxtrn

na 1731 por cent per annum. No

The banquet here to J. Plerpoat
Morgan continues a subject of kcon
interest, partly becnuco of subse
quent rovclatlons of what ho said in
prlvnto nnd of now glimpses of his
genial luiman bMo, but particularly
becauso ho came at tho tlmo whon
Chicago, put to n test, had muldnnlv
demonstrated maturity as a financial
conior. .Mr. Morgan, Jointly with
tho Marshall Field estate, was tho
big factor In Chicago traction financ
ing nnd ho has como out nt least
onco n year. On tho dny when ho
camo the Chicago mnrkct had nb-
sorned tlio last of over 9,000 Bhares
of Commonwealth-Edison stock
which tho Now York "gas crowd,"
C. K. Billings, Anthony N. Urady
nnd others, throw upon tho Chicago
mnrkct abruptly. This unprccodont
ed soiling found tho Chicago buying
power co broad and sMbstnntlnl that
tho price remnlned nlmo-vt stntlon
nry. Of into tho purchasing power
of Chicago baa astonished not only
the Enst but Itself. Mr. Morgan re
lated his father'B wnrnlng to him on
entering business: "Remember, the
man who h a bear on his country's
ruiuro win go broke."
Tho shoveling of snow and who
should do It or pay for having It
dono hns becomo a problem for tho
courts In Chicago becnuso of tho foot
lncrensinr preference of peoplo for
ltfo In flats Inotend of houses. Tho
lnveatmvnt of $34,000,000 In flat
buildings ns compared with $24.
000,000 tells tho story except thnt
cheapncBn of material nnd the "bulid
now" ngltntlon hns hnd Us stimulat
ing effect on building In- general, tho
total for the last 11 months being
$02,910,230 In Chicago, with nearly
llJ.ouo.ooo in tho month of Novom
her and n prospective $5,000,000 In
December, making a grand total for
1908 of $87,000,000. "First, flat
tenants have In some casoe rebelled
against the rulo of upper flat dwol
lcrn that they nvust keep the front
walk free of snow and that upstairs
the families were exempt from the
snowshovel duty of expense One
mnn protected to Mayor Ruwie:
"Thore ought to bo a Bnow tax. We
are now taxed to death any way, and
the elty and county oMolaln ougat
to put a snow tax on ua Frost this
fund men could bo hired to clean the
Rldewalks "
The new flats would house 10(l,
