Mahogany. cut from the forests

ton for the rescue OF Emin Pasha,
now reaches this country, says the
WoodwoFker. These forests are said
to DO inexhaustible, and are prob.
ably OF equal, perhaps OF greater,
value than the richest gold or dla-
mond mines OF the darkest continent.
Capitalists were interested Ia STAN
ley's account, and tiourishing trade
In the timber has resulted. Prices
OF mahogany products were In q fair
way to rise to excessive figures until
ths cutting began In Africa. This
las only been within the past year,
but prices have already fallen twenty
per cent. A carload was recently
delivered ut Louisville, ut u net cost
OF *SO o thousand feet, whereas 10
has been . common thing for nahog.
any to sell at auction In Liverpool,
England, for *lOOs thousand. Here.
tOfore the principal sources OF supply
have been the forests OF Central
America, Cuba, San Domingo and
Brazil. Already l2,OOU,OOO feet
have been cut and exported from
Africa. and the trade promises to
yield On immense revenue to the
British and French colonists. who
have seized the mahogany territory.
This African mahogany has u pinkish
tinge In contrast to the reddish vel.
low color OF the American varieties.
The trees are very large. and logs re.
ceived In the shipment mentioned
were two feet to three and half feet
In size. They are squared before
being exported.
