WE BUY MANY DIAMONDS.
Americans Laying In store of
Precious Stones.
(FroIn the Chicago Chronicle }


During the month of March the Ameri-
can people bought more diamonds than in
any other month in the history OF the
land. That the month Will net be an ex-
ceptionai one in the year is Indicated by
the fact that the record for the first
quarter of the year maintains a similar
position among the statistics of importa-
tons. A pretty safe index of the prosper
ity Of a people is the state of trade in
precious stones. In hard times we don't
lay in a stock of diamonds. and when the
buying Of precious stoees is unprecedent-
ed in its value there can be little doubt
about how business is.
Heretofore the heaviest year of impor-
tation of precious stones on record was
1883 Then came the Boer war one Of the
incidents OF which was the siege OF Kim
berley, the mining and distributing centre
of all rough diamonds, and so the hgures
for 1900 show a1-great decrease.
But last year the trade not only gained
all II had lost but in the face of con-
stantly advancing prices leaped S5 per
cent over the corresponding quarterly
record of 1889. Last month there passed
through the port of New York cut dia-
monds to the value Of 81. ZIG. 10-2O and un-
cut 10 the value Of SSH. 1850. Against this
place the record for March. 1893. sl,l9j.-
5y7 IS for cut precious stones, and S5l6,1 81
for uncut, and the enormous gain can be
appreciated. 1t is interesting 10 know
that In March, 1900. the figures were, Tor
cut 500, 40S 80 and for uncut, $50. 6Jl.S0.
Comparison by quarters Is equally M
structive. For the first quarter of this
year cut precious stones were imported to
the value Of 81. $50. .0S, and uncut. 81
1898. IS, while in the first quarter of 1889
the figures stood. cut, S2,275. $3.50, and un-
cut, S.652. 627.61 and In 1900. the year of
the war, cut. 1885, l64l, and uncut $685.

tons consists of diamonds in the rough

Of Providence in relation to other

on to say in substance that Providence
ceased TO consider slavery a means
of uplifting the negro just about the
moment the guns began TO speak in
1861. In that case, it would appear
that the South was the party which
resisted Providence at such awful
cost. Thus the Santiago hero's worthy
