THE NEW ARTIFICIAL SILK.
1t Ii Made From Wood Pulp, Old
Rags and Vegetable Waste.

Ita8S ana VeHctaDle waste.
An interesting new product, to lie
seen at the Philadelphia Museum, 22M:
South Franklin street. is artificial si!k,
which is made from wood pulp, III
rags, cotton stalks and various other
sorts of vegetable waste. From in
formation received from correspond
ents, the museums are enabled to give
Il description of the process of manu-
facture of this new fabric.
All vegetable fiber, such as WOOL.

cess Of digestion, treatments by acids
and alkalies, be reduced to what, in
the commerce Of chemistry. is known
as ccllulose-in other words, they be-
come mere cellular tissue. the sub
stance secreted by the living proto-
plasrl OF a vegetable cell, in order to
form its investing mebf&ne or cell
wall. Cellulosc is. indeed. made from
wood pulp, the debris from cotton,
jute and other spinning industries,
etc, for n variety Of commercial pur-
poses, and it is this material which is
the basis Of artificial silk.
The process Of preparation OF this
fluid is a purely chemical one. 1t is in
the subsequent treatment Of the fluid
and its conversion into q textile fiber
that the main interest centers, from an
Industrial point Of view. The process
is shown in operation upon a machine
which is a modification OF the ordinary
flyer spinning frame. The fluid, q
muddy, yellowish substance, is con
tanned in a glass jar, from which 1t 10
conveyed through n pipe to a row OF
small bent glass tubes, each having an
extremely fine nozzle Or orifice. Ihese
tubes arc arranged in a hollow tr':lgh
of water. the oriice being beneath the
water level. AS the fluid leaves n
nozzle the water removes ca per cent
of the solvent, and tie fluid immediate
~ coagulates, and 1t is drawn OIL III a
remarkably fine fl!snlont of brilliant
luster, and, when dry, of great tenaci-
ty. Half a dozen such flaments are
gathered together and spun. The yarn
can be spun to any thickness OF count,
and a thread, it is claimed, Is OF even
diameter throughout, %unbrokcn, 1t
may be produced OF unlimited length.
The artificial silk Will stand washing
and ironing, without losing luster or
without suffering any impairment OF
color.
a company has been formed to man
ufacture it, with {. capital If SloS.0OO.
Its works are near Manchester, Eng.
The samples now on exhibition at the
commercial museums show all the pat
tiers that have yet been turned out. 1t
| believed that samples of this fabric
are to be seen nowhere else In the
country.
1t is bling turned out in England for
the South American markets at ~
cents per yard, and the fabric Is made
of a uniform width Of 10 IL inches

will come into general use for goods III

yoy KorzE FIGHTS A DUEL.

He Wounds Baron Schrader, Who Is Like
ly to Die-The Kaiser's ex-Court Cham
berlain and the Master of Ceremonies of
| the Prussian Court Shoot Mt Each Other
| at Distance of Ten Paces-Anonymous
| Letters, Etc.
Berlin April 10.-A duel with pistols
was fought this morning near Pots
dam between Liebrecht Won Kotze, e&-
Court Chamberlain, and Baron Won
Schrader, master of ceremonies of the
| Prussian court, in which the latter was
wounded, perhaps fatally.
The conditions of the duel were that
the principals should stand ten PAGES
apart and shoot until one was disabled,
The combat grew out of the old scan
dial over series of anonymous letters
affecting the character of a number of
court personages which Won Kotze was
suspected Of having written.
He was subsequently exonerated,
however, and has since been involved
in several encounters with persons who
had accused him or intimidated their
suspicious of his guilt.
Baron Won Schrader was taken to a
hospital, and DR.. Bergman was sum-
moned to his bedside.
| 1t was found that the baron had
been shot in the abdomen, and it is
feared that his wound is fatal.
| The duel that took place this morn
ing is one of the series arranged by
| Won Kotze with a number Of persons
who had accused him Of having some
thing to do with the anonymous letters
which made trouble in Berlin society
about five years ago. In the duels
which have been already fought Won
| Kotze came out successful There is
a long list of individuals with whom
he has yet to settle.
| Won Kotze has been in Jail for one of
these encounters, and will probably
have to pay dear for the one that took
place this morning.
! The scandal out of which the trou-
BILE arose began about four and a half
years ago. Persons of both sexes high
in official life in the Prussian capitol
received anonymous communications
accusing them or their relatives of all
sorts of moral delinquencies.
The result was a violent commotion
in the best circles. In a number OF
cases families were broken up. Even
the household Of the emperor himself
was not respected, and in one case at
least there were intimations that the
highest person in Germany was no
better than he ought to be.
At first it was suspected that a wo-
man was the cause of all the mischief
Then information was given to the eff
feet that Won Kotze was the culprit
The only proof was the finding on a
plotting pad in his possession the i'm
print Of a postal card which had beer
sent out some time before, and which
was like the rest. Won Kotze was i'm
prisoned in fortress. tried and fin
ally acquitted. Public opinion shifted
to his side before and during the trial
Since acquittal he has been occupied
with getting even with all those who
were the cause of his troubles.

Probate Court-Judge cleveland.

Evidence was taken in the probate
court yesterday~in an application for
permanent commitment of the Rev.
A. A. Lathbury to the Hartford sani-
tarium. DR.. Moses c. White and DR..
Adams of Hartford, who examined the
patient, both filed affidavits to the eff
feet that in their opinion he is insane.
Rev. Clarence A. Lathbury, a broth
er, testified that the patient imagined
he had special mission to save the
world and that he saw the heavens
open, disclosing the realms of paradise.
He said there was no record of insanity
in the family, and his brothers condi-
ton was a great surprise to him.
Owing to the failure of other wit
nesses to arrive the case was not def
nitely decided yesterday morning, but
there is no apparent doubt that Judg
Cleaveland will grant the petition.
