Advanced Valuation on Diamonds.

Word has reached the Treasury Depart
ment that the board Of general appraisers
has advanced ten per- cent the value Of a
lot Of diamonds, valued at something over
$175,OOO imported by flfrn OF Cincinnati
jewelers.. The contention of the importers
was that they had bought the diamonds
at bargain and that the Invoice correctly
stated the price paid, The government.
however, holds that duties are assessed
upon the actual market value of goods i'm
ported and that duty must be paid on that
basis. There is no appeal in case Of this
kind, as under the law, the decision of the
board Of general appraisers is final as to
values. Similar ADVANCES have been made
on imported diamonds entered at Kansas
City, Minneapolis and Norfolk. An impor-
tant legal question involved in these cases
is whether the government had a right to
remove the diamonds from the place at
which they were imported In order to Sc
cure expert testimony as to their value
The government has no appropriation from
which to pay the expenses Of outside ex-
perts to the port of entry, and therefore in
a number Of cases the diamonds have been
sent to experts in other cities under proper
safeguards. e.

The young colored woman was under

Rama Kratta at 7th street and Pennsylva-
MIA avenue this morning about 100 o'clock.
At the time the trouble occurred. the
thoroughfare was crowded with pedestrians
on their way to market and the sight OF
the colored woman running across the ave-
nue. attracted a large crowd of the more
curious ones.
Deed, mister. didn't take It." the woman
protested. Policeman w. E. Sanford in
formed the woman that he was not per-
mitted to try cases on the street and sent
her to the first precinct station, where she
was charged with robbery.

lived at Orange. Va. until two years ago,
when she went to Passaic, N ]. Three
weeks ago she came to this city and found
employment at the house of Mrs. Collins
near 9th and K streets. She said she picked

Kratta, she said, made an effort to pick 1t
up at the time she did. but she Uucille) got

THE NEW BoRELLI COMET.
It is in the Northeastern Sky-May Be
Seen With the Naked Eve.

The new Borelli comet is growing brighter
every night, and it may be seen any clear
evening If you know where to look for II,
says the New York Sun. The best time Is
about O'Clock. The comet is then plainly
visible to the naked eye. in the northeastern
sky, northwest of the constellation OF Cyg-
nus. With a fieldglass il is still more plain
ly visible.
The best way to find the constellation or
Cygnus is first to locate the Great Dipper,
then draw an imaginary line through the
two pointer stars forming the outer side
of the Dipper. Extending this line north
ward, 1t will touch the North Star. The
constellation of Cygnus lies about as far
to the northeast of the North Star as the
pointer stars of the Dipper lie In the
opposite direction.
DR. William r. Brooks director Of the
Smith Observatory at Geneva, \. y, who
has been observing the comet since II was
first seen, says that II is now moving north
west about five degrees daily, and, although
the rate of motion will increase, the comet
may be readily followed from night to
night While Borelli's comet may not have
the last century have had. he says, II will
prove a very interesting object as 1t ap-
proacheS the sun.
According to the measurements of the
new comet Borelli, based on photographs
taken by the Yale observers, the tail OF the
comet is at least 100000 miles long Prof.
William L. Elkin. director of the Yale OBJ
servatory, said last night:
1.-The comet Is the only important one
seen in the past eight years 1t is tho
years ago. 1t will be at it's brightest from
now until July p. Just now it is as bright
as the pole star According to the observa-
tons 1t is about 26.OO0,OOO miles from tho
away. 1t is travelling at about twenty-five
miles a second"
