BIG FORTUNES
ARE MADE IN
SOUTH WALES
CARDIFF, Wales, Jan. 9 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Quick fortunes and
knighthoods are the present-day prod
ucts of South Wales, says a special
correspondent of the Daily Express.
He cites numerous examples of rap
idly-acquired wealth and honors in
Cardiff, which now boasts about twen
ty-five millionaires. To be accounted
a millionaire in Wales, it should be
understood, one must possess not one
million dollars, but one million
pounds.
Ships are the golden argosies of Car
diff—not the stately liners that carry
passengers across the Atlantic, but
lumbering tramps, many of them an
cient and rusty. Freight rates are
high, says the correspondent, and ship
ping men are raking in fortunes. One
can meet many men in Cardiff who
before the war were clerks at small
salaries and now have big motor cars,
wives with furs and diamonds, and
country houses.
One man in Cardiff who sailed the
seas as a pilot five years ago put his
savings into a ship,'and now can write
his check for £500,000. A small
tradesman invested £200 in a ship
and received £6,000 for his interest
two years later. A man who held a
small clerkship in a shipping office
before the war came unexpectedly
into a windfall of £4,000. He invested
it in a shipping company and now has
sold his interest for £100,000.
A former railway porter is now di
rector of sixteen companies. A boy
of 21 who inherited £20,000 is now,
at 27, chief owner of eleven ships and
worth many hundreds of thousands.
A man who formerly had a type
writer agency drifted into shipping.
He recently bought a country estate
for £250,000, and his daughter was
heard complaining that he allowed her
“only £21,000 a year.”
BRITISH NAVY’S SUCCESS
DUE TO MEN’S BRAVERY
PARIS, Jan. 9 (by Associated
Press).—Captain De Parseval bf the
French navy, who has just written a
book on “The Battle of Jutland,” says:
“The British owed their success to the
valor of the sailors, the strength of
the chiefs, more than to any material
superiority, because as a matter of
fact the material at the disposal of
the British admirals was relatively in
ferior to that of the Germans.”

The refusal of the engineering com
mission to connect up the ends of
steel between Fairbanks and Nenana
this winter unless Fairbanks agrees
to take 2,000 tons of coal has brought
up a quarrel between the Interior
towns which it will take some time to
allaw.
Fairbanks and Nenana papers are
throwing odorous editorial bouquets at
each other ov.er the non-completion

papers claim the town has been
double-crossed, and the Nenana pa
pers are defending the commission.

charge of running a still, and was
fined $250 and costs, amounting to

and the authorities stated that the
brew was so powerful that it nearly
ate the tub up in places.

the gas boat Harry, was drowned at
his home in Ketchikan last week. He

wood and coal to builid a fire in his
boat, which was moored in front of
his house. When he did not return a
search was made and the body was
found in about fifteen feet of water.
The left side of his head was bruised,
showing that he had 'slipped
and struck a piling near by. Captain
Angel was born in Dayton, Ohio, in
1864. He was attracted to Alaska by
the gold rush of 1898 and spent sev
eral years in Dawson(, Nome and
other camps.
