DIAMOND LuxuHEs 60 UP.

New York. Oct. 14.--Leading diamond
merchants in this city have received
advices from their brokers In London
Amsterdam and Antwerp. that the dia-
mond selling syndicate OF the De Beers
Company Of South Africa, has adyanc-
ed the price Of all trough" goods per
cent and the price Of the larger rough
diamonds 10 per cent. The syndicate
handles the output Of the De Beers
Company which produces. II is said,
about s5 per cent Of the total output of
the world.
The advance is the third since Febru-
AIRY, and diamonds were then selling
higher than al any time since the con-
solldation of the South African mines
In the seventies. Accompanying the ca
bles came advlces from the diamond
market centers OF Europe, indicating
that conditions there are unprecented
for 90 years. German buyers have In
vaded Antwerp and Amsterdam. the
principal cutting centers OF the conti-
nent, and purchased all the cut and
polished goods in sight Another fea-
ture OF the new market conditions is
that European dealers have refused to
sell goods on time. The reasons given
for the advance are manifold. but the
general opinion seems 10 be that the
output Of the Kimberly reid Is decreas-
ing. Diamond imporations to this
country show decline Tscently.

BOOKER 7. ON NEGRO AND DAIRY.

New York. October l4.--Booker
T. Washington, who is Just back
from a short vacation in Europe, has
been welcomed home by a meeting of
5000 negroes here. In responding to
numerous addresses, he said the oppor-
tanitles for education and labor for the
negro here are much better than the
poorer classes get on the other side.
"The poorer classes there" he said,
save more money than the colored peo
ple here, although they earn less. On
the other hand, In point OF general
morality, think that our people COM
mare fnvorably with the lower classes
Of EUROPE" While abroad, Washington
took up the studies Of dairies and dairy
products in Normandy. He believes
the conditions there can be adapted to
Tuskegee with 9fcat success.
