ALL ABOUT THE RICHEST CITY or
EUROPE And IT'S MILLION. ="
ARE MONEY MAKERS

During my tour | asked one Of the
experts whether an imitation diamond
had ever been made which could de-
ceive him or any one who knew much
about diamonds. He replied that real
diamonds are like nothing else upon
earth, and that any one who under
stands them can easily detect the real
from the false.
sTRlNGING DIAMONDS LIKE
BEADS.
The man showed me models in glass
of all the diamonds cut by the factory,
Including some OF the largest In the
world, lie showed me real stones
ready for sale worth thousands OF dol
lGrs ana among others several dia-
monds strung upon wires as fine as q
hair, pust as though they we're beads
The holes IN these diamonds were
made tere In Amsterdam There Is only
one man upon earth who Knows how
10 do Il. His process Is a secret and so
far no one has been able TO initiate II.
Tho holes he makes are az fine as a
hair but Notwithstanding this they
are polished on the inside. Those |
SOW were made at the tip Of the dta-
mond,
talked with my guide about wages
and learned that they vary according
10 the work from 81 to $40 a week. The
polishers are not so well paid as tue
splitters ana the best work commands
the big money, The great money In the
business goes to the capitalists not

would be one Of the best places in west
ern Europe for pushing our commercial
invasion. Holland itself is rich, and
the big firms here have wires which
roach out 10 every part Of the world,
end especially TO the vast population OF
the Dutch East Indies.
The big factories of Java are largely
owned by Amsterdam capital, and our
sugar making machinery and other
such things could be sold through
Amsterdam.
The government operates many OF the
railroads IN the East Indies, and rail-
road materials for Sumatra and Java
might be placed here and the same is
true, as far as the government Is con-
cemod, as TO waterworks, gas plants
and electrical undertakings.

tlans, The Jewish population Is large
comprising altogether some $4,000
Many Of the Jews are descendants Of
those who came here from Lisbon dur
lug the middle ages and engaged IN
lending money and In shipping projects.
Others came from Germany and eastern
Europe. The Dutch themselves are
among the safest and best business men
OF the world and with the Jews make
strong combination. They have never
been afraid to invest In ventures that
promised well and they have always
pushed out for new things.
Amsterdam laid the foundation OF her
wealth through her spice trade with the
Dutch East Indies. She had the mon
upoly Of this trade when the Dutch
East India company was formed and
she Is today one Of the chief spice mar
kets Of the world. She has had to
have plenty OF money to back her en-
terprlses and this has led to the growth
of a large banking business,

Leishman's Demand Promptly

Constantinople, September 12.-
Not content with simply the sending
OF Nazim Pasha, vail OF Syria, to
take charge OF the administration oil
affairs at Beirut, Minister Leishman
demanded OF the porte the summary
dismissal of Reshid Pasha, the vail
OF Beirut. under whose rule the recent
disturbances occurred. This demand
was placed on the ground that under
his incompetent administration the
lives and property Of Americans in
Beirut were insecure. The porte
promptly complied. Reshid Pasha
was dismissed and Nazim Pasha for
mally appointed vail Of Beirut in his
place. Nazim Pasha received an en-
thusiastic reception at Beirut, crowds
at the station cheering him warmly.
ffhe compliance of the sultan with
the demand OF the United States min
lister has had a quieting effect at
Beirut. Christians who had fed are
returning and representatives OF for
eign governments have decided not
to ask Admiral Cotton to land
marines. The admiral expressed him
