The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options required we can say the following.

How did the "Old Money" (landowners and aristocrats) feel about the "New Money" (factory and business owners)?

Well, it was not an easy process for aristocrats that were used to be the few that were considered powerful and wealthier. They could control and exert some influence in legislation.

But then it came the time when rich industrials started to have an important presence in the US economy and grow very powerful, We are talking about big industrial names like John D. Rockefeller with his Standard Oil Company and Andrew Carnegie of the US Steel Company.

Both those businessman, as well and Vanderbilt, they grew so much until they created monopolies during the Gilded Age.

As these men became very rich and powerful, aristocrats felt somehow threatened because they used to be the dominant ones. From then on, they were not. Industrials and businessmen started to have a larger presence in US politics and economics.
