The largest diamond in the United
States is among the gEttering objects
of interest in the show window OF Col.
Andrews diamond palace on Mont
gomery street. 1t attracted a great
deal of attention yesterday. It's weight
is 81 1-16 karats. 1t was found in
Africa two years ago and was taken to
Amsterdam, where it was cut and pol
ished. twenty-five months were ,oc-
cupied in subjecting it to these pro-
cesses.. 1t is slightly off color, and
consequently its value is only placed
at $4,000. Col. Andrews brother,
residing in London, secured the gem
and forwarded it to this city. The
next largest diamond in America is
owned by Boss" Tweed, and weighs
liz karats. The late Jim Fisk had
one of Is karats weight The most
valuable diamond owned in San Fran
cisco up to this time is in the posses
sion of Lloyd Tevis, and is said to be
worth $4,000.

Arsenic In Green Paper.

n physician OF Louisville, who had
been giving considerable attention to
the subject of arsenical poisoning by
means of green colorIng material IN
wall paper. etc., has accumulated sew
en- specimens of arsenic taken from as
many different samples of wall paper,
each one of which has history In
one case married lady had long been
sick without being able to get any re-
lief by medical treatment, until, on
reading i'll some newspaper that green
wallpaper was poisonous, 1T occurred
to her that her illness might be owing
to the green figured paper on the walls
of her room. A chemical analysis
was made and five grains of arsenic
obtained from one of the green bunch
es of flowers on the paper. The paper
was removed. and from that time the
lady became convalescent The next
case was that of young man whose
disease puzzled the physicians till one
more thoughtful than the rest noticed
that the wall paper in his sleeping
room was deeply tinctured with green.
He was removed to another room and
soon recovered. In another case a
young lady had suffered for quite a
long period with constant irritation
of the stomach and intestines. dry
mouth and parched throat, and alb
seuce of appetite, while her complex.
ion grew more and more paliid aud
bloodless. 1t was noticed tina. during
occasional visits to the country she
recnperated, but soon dropped again
after returning home. Finally sls-
picion was directed to the light green
wall paper of her sleeping room vi ich
on analysis yielded over FIVE grains of
arsenic to the square foot These
cases suffice to show the character of
the specimens, and seem to establish
beyond any doubt that green wall
papers are dangerous. 1t is also said
that besides the danger from wall
papers, are those from handling green
tinted pasteboard boxes, green show
tickets, gas shades. pastry ornaments,
toys, etc. Many children have been
killed by the arsenic sucked from
green toys, sore eyes have been caused
by green gas-shades. aud during the
first year of the Louisville Exposition
all the gentlemen who handled green
tickets were afflicted with slight arr
senical poisoning CT the hands and
eyes, n.

The Mining Troubles.

New YORK, April IA dispatch from
Harrisburg says: Adiutant General Latta,
whom the Governor had dispatched to Halle
ton aud vicinity to ascertain the true situation
of affairs 10 Luz"roe county. has returned aud
reported to Gov. Hartranft that no present
danger OF violent measures exists, but that the
immediate withdrawal If the troops would not
be ADVISABLE He had interviews with the
operators. miners aud commanders Of the mill
tary, and from their several statements he is OF
he opinion that The troops should not be call
ed back. The miners and citizens of Hazeton
were almost unanimous 10 disappearing OF the
military Intervention to settle the coal dlthcul-
ties. None but the operators thought the
withdrawal OF the troops might be attended
with serious consequences. ln accordance with
Gen. Latta report the Governor has decided
not to recall the military until all danger OF
violence in The Luzcrne coal region has dlsap-
peared
A Hazetou, Pa, dispatch says The food
ing of the mines still continues and incalculable
damage is resulting. The miners declare that
they would bQ taking the bread from their own
mouths il they should fire the breakers and
devastate the mines and this points toward the
rufians, who are engaged IN this species of
outlawry. Great Trcsekow Colliery, 1T Au-
denred, has been so ut;er y flooded that If the
pumps were started up tomorrow 1t would take
until September to empty the mine. This
condition OF affairs has resulted from engineers
being driven from the pumps. The foes that
the mine owners now have 10 contend against,
together with turbulent strikers, are water and
fire. All throug b this region the water II play
ing sad havoc, and If the miners should sur.
render it would require mouths 20 place the
property in working order In the Stockton
mine the flames are raging with tremendous
fury and spreading 10 all directions. Strategy
has been exhausted and the only agency that
can extineuish the fire is water, aud when the
mine is flooded all tho others that connect with
it must also be filed At the lowest calcula-
ton the loss by this calamity will amount to
half million dollars.
