The Number of Incinerations Is Growing
Steadily from Year to Year.


The advocates in this country of Gre
mating dead bodies will be somewhat
encouraged by the reports that come
from Paris of the number of incinera-
tions that took place there during the
first four months of 1895, says the New
York World. The number of incinera-
tions that occur, either in accordance
with previous request of the person
whose body is disposed of or at the
instance of the representatives, in
creases every year with great regu-
larity, though not rapidly. According
to the statistics published by the pre-
feet of police, the number of crema-
Chaise cemetery from August, 1889, to
the end of April, 1895, were as follows;
1859, 40; 800; 12I; 1891, 1874; 1892,
159: 1898, 1s9; 1894, ZIG, and 1895 (four
montIls), rs.
The furnace would consequently
often DC idle were it not for the remains
from the hospitals, which amount to
from 1000 to $500 bodies per annum.
The apparatus employed is that of
NM. Toisoul and Fradet and works by
means Of gas with recuperator. In
cinerations arc accomplished in an hour
or, at most, an hour and quarter, and
the cost of the combustible never ex-
ceeds three francs per operation.
Another apparatus, invented by NJ.
Fiehet. has recently been inaugurated.
The difference between the two inven-
tions lies chiefly in the application of
oxide of carbon. In the contrivance
devised by NJ. Fichet the body is con-
sumed by hot air alone and does not
come into contact with gases. Accord
ing to this method, incineration taxes
place little more rapidly than in the
Toisoul furnace, but the expense is
greater by nearly quarter as much.

TO ADVANCE TRADE RELATIONS.
Mission of Representative Of
Japanese Industries,

MfsStOn of Representa- tive Of
Japanese Industries.
Mr.. Massana Mazda, ex-vice minister Of
agriculture Of Japan. Is a guest at the
japanese legation here. He represents about
socfations Of Japan and his mission here
Is to advance the trade relations between
the two countries. Mr.. Mazda says the
Japanese are extremely anxious to give the
United States a large share Of their trade.
and his purpose in coming here is IN part
to investigate the prices of railroad and
telephone equipments. The Japanese gov
eminent Is about to expend large sums
OF money in railroad and telephone extern
sions: and 1t would be very satisfactory to
equipments could be purchased in the
United States. For some unknown reason.
Mr.. Mazda said, the people of this coun-
try have never seriously undertaken to
extend tfeir trade with Japan. They do
not seem to appreciate the fact. he said.
America rather than with any Of the Eu-
ropean nations. and 1t was his opinion that
q very large reciprocal trade might very
easily be built up between the two nations.
As rule the important products Of Japan
did not In any way conflict with American
the trade of both countries could not be
greatly extended to their mutual advan-
tage.
In speaking of Hawaii. Mr. Mazda said
there was absolutely no sentiment in Japan
in favor of Japan annexing the islands,
among the common people. Japan did not
wish Hawaii. but she did desire to have
her trade interests protected and her treaty
with the islands kept inviolate.
