The manufacture of lithicum salts is a sugges-
ted new American industry. Lithium is usually
regarded as very rare metal, but it occurs in
considerable quantities in the spcdumene and
ledidolite of New England, the Black Hills, and
California, the most important source of sup
ply now known being the lepidolite deposit of
San Diego Co., Cal. This deposit is estimated at
100000 tons. the lithia being estimated at three
to five per cent The lithium carbonate used
In the United States for making artificial lithia
water is variously estimated at 10000 to 100000
pounds annually, and this all comes from Ger

from this end with the active assistance
Of Mr.. Strauss
It is believed here that but for the in
terpOsition of Russia and the demands
that were made by Great Britain, Italy
and France to have their claims paid
when they learned that the United
States had taken the lead in these nego-
tiatfOns and succeeded in having the in
dennity claims not only recognized, but
had received a promise for payment, the
Turkish government would have prompt
y carried cut its promises The govern
ment, however, did not intend TO be
sidetracked on this question and the re-
suit has been that through direct pres
sure, exerted at Washington. the Turk
ish government fulfilled its promises for
the rebuilding of the destroyed school
house and for the additional building.
Robert college; SO that all the matters
at issue have been satisfactorily settled
with the exception Of the payment OF the
indemnity claims
Government officials here do not be-
Heve that extreme measures viii become
necessary, especially as the Turkish gov
its promises, which have been repeated
to the United States charge, Mr.. Dris-
coll, since Mr.. Strauss return The
whole negotiations have been difficult
and are considered highly creditabIe to
the state department and to the diplo-
matte skill of Mr. Strauss.
In his reports to the secretary of
state, Mr.. Strauss has expressed his be-
lief that the indemnity would be ad-
justed and that the relations between
the two countries would again be as
they were in former years, pleasant and
auicable. especially as the United
States keeps itself entirely neutral in
the shifting phases Of the eastern ques-
ton Two years ago Il was believed by
high officials OF the government that
nothing short OF a warlike demonstra-
ton could bring about an adjustment of
the pending questions. The situation
has been szillfuly and decidedly i'm
proved. although the administration is
growing weary of the dilatory tactics
resorted to BY the advisers Of the sui
tan
