Weiltb of too Rothschilds A statistician had just complet ed figures which he asserts, show the fortune of the famous house of Rothschild. The entire fortune is estimated at ten milliards' of francs. A milliard is a billion, eo that in dollars the Rothschild fortune equals $2,000,000,000. Placed at 4 per cent, the Roths child fortune would produoe an annual . revenue. . of $80,000,000. But this sum is far from being reality, sfs the great part of the Rothschild .riches is in property la Lancashire they own immense thread mills, while in Germany they possess numerous coat mines with a capacity of millions of tons per annum. In Braxil the Roths childs own immense rubber for-? estSf atfd iu Persia factories where the most beautiful carpets Jn the world are made.
