THE MOUNTAIN OF WEALTH OF
THE ROTHSCHILDS.
Rcsardin^ as a Mere NothliiK tlie Loss l' $-2.",000,000—Founder of Hie Family ami Ills I'ivc Kcmarliable
Son*—A Fortune of $1,000,000,000.
A few weeks ago tlie entire world was startled bv the news that Uuntave Rothschild lutd lost $'25,000,000 in various speculative ventures and that he had even attempted suicide in the presence of his misfortune but the loss of those millions made no more inroad iu the colossal fortunes of the grand old house of the brethren of the red shield than the loss of as many hundreds would bo 1 Ii\e 1 to make on the wealth of a Yaiiderbil't or a Jay Gould.
No one knows, it is true, how much the Rothschild fortune is exactly, but it is safe to say that it exceeds §1,000.000,000. In times of severe panic and trial its magnificent solidity has been proudly pointed to as one of the most enduring monuments of human probity and industry.
In the great storm of 1857, when, for a few days, George l'eabody's credit was gone when Baring Brothers were anxiously surveying the wreckage all around them when a hundred leading mercantile and banking firms of London were scudding under bare poles,
Rothschirds alone showed no distress. They did just as much during the panic as loan contractors, dealer* in bullion, stock purchasers, sellers of securities as ever before.
Even when the Bank of England had to cry to the government for help, they
swept
on undismayed. Losses do not seem to affect them. In 1848 they lost $40,000,000 at one swoop. In 1870, at the time of the Franco-German war, thev lost as much more.
In the citv of Frankfort there is a

dirty narrow lane called the Judeugasse, or .lews' lane. In this foul-smelling lane lived Meyer Ainschel Rothschild, the founder of the great linn. He lost both parents at an early age and was destined by his relatives for the priesthood. His taste for business was stronger, however, than his relatives' wishes, and he entered a small banking house in Ilanover.
Having at list, amassed sufficient capital lie return"'! to ihe Judengasse and started as iM»• lender under the sign of the I'ed S eld.
In 181*2 lie die won li $.rj,000,000. This fortune, wtcch ne in.: listed to his five sons, is now estimated at over a billion, and is still growing ike a snowball.
The harmony and union which Meyer Amschel made his live sons swear when they were assembled around his deathbed has never been hr'-ken. Each Rothschild's business and !'ortune is a compact to protect the lien's name. How maiiy partners are there in this immense firm which 'oos business with empires and kii:..iluins every day'/ A few years ago there were.no less than 70 of these'partners, and the number goes on increasing. These are the fourth in descent from Meyer Amschel Rothschild. The rule of intermarriage is still kept up almost as rigorously as in the royal circles of Europe, and intermarriage seems only to increase the brghtness o' these phenomenally bright people.
The advent Hre of the unlucky (iustave -de Rothscvhihl brmgs the Paris -ancli of the family rather prominently into view. The first of these Paris Rothschilds wa6 Baron Solomon. Solomon's brother, Baron Jamea de Rothschild, took charge of the Paris house in 18'1'i.

the great financial operations unaer Louis Philippe and the second empire. Men called him the pretenr des rois (the King's money lender).
He took the initiative in building railroads in Franco—notably the Northern of France. The Rothschilds to-day virtually own this vast mentioned road.
He never carried on his person more than 50 francs ($10) at a time. "I have 400,000 francs that way," he I said. "One lets himself be carried away by chances for investment if he carfles flioney with hiui," lie used to say. I Toward the end of his life he was a litffe eccentric. At his club in the

little key when he wanted to stake 10 c«nts at cards. Baron James had four children—Edward, Alphonse, Nathaniel and Gustave, who recoutly lost the much-talked-of §25,000,000.
The Vienna branch of the House of Rothschild estimates its wealth at
what in American coin would sum up fully $70,000,000. Albert, the grandson of old Meyer Anschelm, is tho head of the house, which still bears the title one of the five famous founders gave it, "S. von Rothschild." On the old. stalely building in the Rennst.rasse this sign, regilded. is still to be seen.
The Paris and Vienna Rothschilds stand high, socially. But perhaps the greatest eminence in the presence of most serious obstacles has been obtained hv those members of the family who set led in Loudon. The story of old Baron Nathan has been often told, hut its romantic incidents and its splendid financial genius shown iu his career are ever fresh and striking. Baron Nathan was born in Frankfort in 1707,

and in 1778 his father sent him to Loudon: thence he went-to Manchester, where he began his career as a HIOIWY lenjicr with an actual capital of His genius is sufficiently shown hv the fact that in five years' time he had $).- 00(\H0l. NafSian was a speculator.
What the Barings, the Goldsmids, the Colitises and the Hopes did not dare to try he had the nerve to^undertatce. Like the Paris Roths«hilds, he secured large gains by supplying money to the armies in the field, lie purchased Weiriagton's drafts, which England's treasury for a moment cotild not meet, aud renewed them to the government. This-gava him his first null on the government business.

pigeons, last sailing noats ana WTOW in cipher. He went to the tield of Waterloo, saw the great fight, dogged "Wellington so closely that the Iron Duke threatened to hang him if he did not clear out, and when the great vetre.'^ begun Nathan was away,to the Belgian coast, ahead of all army couriers and everybody else, mounted the best horse money could secure.
Arriving at the coast no sailor was willing to venture to sea because a storm was raging. He offered successively ."00, 1,000, l,-"i00, 2,000, and 2,500 francs [or a boat to Dover within an hour. Tliat last offer was too much for a hardy fisherman, who yielded and took h'im across. Both risked their lives,but at sunset Nathan was at Dover. Oq swift horses he rode through Hie night to London. In the morning he was on 'change gloomy asjan ancient prophet, selling down, down, down against Wellington, whispering of defeats of England and Prussia by Napoleon, annbuying through a Secret channel everything that he sent down..
Forty-eight hours afterward camo the n?M's of Wellington's victory. Everything went up! Nathan sold out, and is iid to have made millions by this little transaction.
The rise of the Rothschilds in Enlisli i-oi'iet'V began with the removal or the political disabilities of Lionel Rothschild so that he could take his place in the House of Commons as its leading Hebrew member. He was elected as early as 1S47, but did not occupy his seat because English stupidity persisted in demanding the oath "on the true faith of a Christian.'' He was-
•MMK LKOPOI.n DE ROTHSCHILD.
elected 11 times before the odiousproviso was removed. The Italian house which was establishd in tho early days of jibe Rothschilds at Naples was ably iflnd.ucted by Charles Rothschild, but was given up after the incorporation of the Two Sicilies with the Kingdom of Italy.
It is perfectly natural that some of the vast Rothschilds wealth, which is
1
diverted into thousands of channels in I Europe and Asia., should li .id its way to America.
Fifty millions is the ligure at which shrewd ones in Wall street place the I American investments of the Rothschild family.
The amount of American railroad stocks in the market is placed at $9,000,000,000. Of this, #4,500,000,000 is in bonds and the remainder in stocks. Fullv 25 per cent of this vast investment is held abroad, and the Rothschilds control no small proportion of the American stocks on the London market.
The secret of the house's succes is, of course, the rigid following of old Meyer Anselm's maxim of buying cheap undsellinsr at a high price.
It would require a Ion- calculation to get at i:ven a proximate estimate OL the Rothschilds" wealth. They never tell fanul 'secreis. One of their mottoes is: iold never repeals what it

ami another: "A intui will not tell what he has not heard," but some ice.i can bo had from the fact thar since they have raised for Great Britain alone more than §1,000.000,000 for Austria, $250,000,000 for Prussia. $200,000,000 for France, $'100,000,000: for It.'lv. nearlv ,f,1300,000.OIK) for Brazil. 1. en '••0,000.000 to $70,000,000, and for siu.^ I States, certainly between *200,o..,000 and .^00,000,000 more, perhaps 000,000,000.
