THE TIMES
EDlTORIALlY EXPRESS ES
BELIEF THAT THE
GREAT TRADE ACTIVITY
Will Continue to Suffer a
Reaction.

London, Sept. 2.-(London Times.)-
The Times, in an editorial concerning
business conditions in the United States
expresses the belief that the Reaction
from extreme trade activity, which has
been in operation in America for sew
eral months is likely to last longer than
some very sanguine persons imagine.
The American people. The Times says
lave teen encouraged 10 imagine that
the laws Of economics do not apply TO
their land because it is too vast and too
rich and inhabitated by too energetic
race to be judged by the standards ap-
picable to the "effete old monarchieJ
of Europe"
This was the sort of talk" the
Times says, with which all sugges-
tions that the boom of 1900-19O2 was
extravagant and dangerous we're met.
Since then much has happened to dis.
enchant, for the moment at least, the
believers in wOndrous United States,
with charmed business life that neeG
take no account of the laws of econ
omics. The industrial activity did not
begin to diminish until about a year
ago, many months after the breali-u,'
of the frantic speculation of Wall
Street, which had accompanied it, and
which was based on it. But during the
last twelve months 1t has beAU steadily
growing less, though It is contendel
by some optimists that the contraction
of legitimate business is not very
great"
1t seems to be the view of the Three
that the United States is in fer a some
what prolonged period Of business
stagnation.

EXPERIENCE
In Matrimony Proves
Disastrous

Portland, Ore, Sept 2.--Married
Monday in her fathers house at Salem,
Ore, seeing her husband clear their
room in a lodging house OF everything
portable, going through the same ex-
perience the next night and now in the
city Jail, with the bridegroom, is the
experience of the daughter of Judge
w. +. Bonham, formerly United States
consul at India, former postmaster of
Salem and one of the best known at,
torneys on the Pacific coast
Clay LarlSins and his wife were ar
rested late last night for the looting
of the rooms of the two lodging houses
and a quantity of silver from q promi.
nent restaurant was found in their
rooms. Mrs. Larkins is much esteem
ed in Salem. While living in Calcutta,
India in the SOS she was married to
an attache of the English embassy.
This man, Charles Abbott, proved
worthless and divorce was secured
by the wife about year ago. Her sec
ond venture in matrimony, it appears,
has proven quite as unfortunate as
her first.

FIRE DESTROYS
Big Lumber Plant at
Toledo.

Toledo, o., Sept. 2.--Fire today
totally destroyed the plant of the
Mitchell G Rowland Lumber COM
pany, in volving loss of $175OO0 with
$l1S,O0O insurance. The lumber schoon-
er Verona which was cast upon the
company's wharf by the flood and ice
OF last winter, was also burned. 1t
was owned by the Gilchrist company,
of Cleveland, but had been abandoned
to the underwriters, who had recently
let contract for the floating of the
boat. 1t was valued at $4,000. About
1000 feet of the floor of Fassett street
bridge was also burned
The fire was caused by spark from
locomotive igniting sawdust in the
lumber yard. It was thought to have
been eXtinguished but a stiff wind
sprang up and in few minutes "a
shee OF flame again spread over the
yards of 60 acres, consuming lumber,
mills and other buildings.

10 PER CENT Law
Popular Action Of a Cleve
land Justice

Some Canton justice of the peace who
wished to immortalize himself could do
SO by taking the stand taken by JUS
per cent law which allows the attach
ing of mems wages for debts for neces-
stiles. From all over the country COM
plants have been made that this law
is cnstantly being used to persecute
poor men especially in the matter Of
piling up costs greatly in excess of the
amount of the debt. There have been
many such complaints in Canton. The
Cleveland Press has the following with
reference to Justice Reilly and his de-
termination to stop all such abuses:
Reilly, ]. D., has turned against per-
sons suing for small amounts. Yester-
day he decreed that the plaintiff in a
suit for SLIGO should pay the costs,
though he was given judgment in the
case.
II do not intend that my court shall
be the instrument OF torture when per-
sons wish to get even with Others" said
Reilly yesterday. ut is a disgrace to
W dllOW d DOOI, ndTu WOlhllS
man to be brought into court for
small debt and then assess the costs of
two or three L,mes the amount upon
him.
I'm many cases these creditors have
not made a reasonable effort to COL
lect their bills, and possibly having
something against him, want to get
even by making him pay good sum
for the privileges of paying his debts.
Although I can't very well refuse
these cases, hereafter | will stick to my
rule and look out for the poor man."
The case which aroused Reilly's
wrath was one brought by j. W. Kauf-
bolz against John Beyers, a tug engi-
neer. The plaintiff sued for the sum OF
SLIGO On account All of Beyers' pay
for the past month was held up. Yes
terday Beyers was forced to leave his
work and attend the trial.
Kaufbolz's claim against Beyers was
valid, and without a moments hesita-
ton Reilly announced Judgment for
the plaineiff. Then he added, as the
plaintiff and his attorney were gather
ing up their papers with a half satisfied
smile, but the costs are assessed on
the plaintiff"
When the plaintiff discovered that
the costs we're over $500 he loudly OBJ
jected to the finding Of the court. His
attorney gave notice of appeal, saying
he would geta the upper court to
change the costs.

First Glass Races at Providence.

Providence, r. l., Sept. 2. - First
class racing marked the fifth and
last day of the Grand Circuit meet
today at Narragansett Park. The four

went seven heats before a decision
was reached. Fairview Chimes was
the favorite but acted rather badly.
The 2:06 trot was a grand race, Nc
Kinley taking two heats by nose in
a grand squirt of speed at the wire.
The classes for Saturday failed to fill
and the race was declared off.

ing matter on the leaves or by the skin
of the worms, which might have been
spotted by the dye, some CT them (the
worms) were washed and placed on
freshly gathered branches where they
at once began TO form cocoons as red
as the first lot.
The worms selected from the lot at
the fourth moulting July 23) were fed
on colored leaves only during the fifth
period of life, and they rendered on
August 10, cocoons as red as those OF
the first lot, in which the worms had
been fed on colored leaves during the
entire larval period. The absorption
Of red during the last period is there
fore necessary and sufficient to color
the silk.
A fourth lot was composed OF worms
fed on methylene blue. They ate this
with less avidity; and a number, IN
their efforts to escape this food, fell
from the branches and were lost They
formed their cocoons slowly and rem
dered but little silk, which was Of a
slightly blush color.
Another lot of worms, the Atticus
oriZaba (this is a wild worm which
does not eat mulberry leaves), were
fed on leaves of the troene, tree OF
the olive family uigustrum sp.). These
leaves were dipped in solution OF
picric acid. The well-known toxic
qualities Of that coloring matter did
not prevent it from being eaten, but
the worms did not relish it keenly
and made no cocoons until Septem-
Der 4. Notwithstanding the color
ing power of picric acid the silk re
NAMED white.
Thus we see that the neutral red
passes easily by osmosis through the
tissues, while methylene blue passes
| with difficulty, and picric acid leaves
| no trace of color.
From the Investigations and expert
ments made, it is inferred that a color
| ing matter may be passed from the di-
| gestive tube through the blood upon
| the silk The coloring matter possesses
| in different degree the power to cross
! by osmosis the tissues of silkworms,
| and each race Of silkwOrms is charac-
| teriZed by the osmotic power Of it's It's
sues in relation to different coloring
matters, permitting the passage Of
some to the exclusion of others This
| explains the natural coloring of the
Lepidoptera.

CO[OREDS|L KWORMS
EFFORTS TO PRODUCE NATURAL
LY DYED SILK.
Cocoons Of Pink and Blue Obtained
by Means of Feeding Leaves
That Had Been Dipped
in Coloring Matter.

Several European newspapers have
recently published the statement that
Messrs. Comte and Levrat, of Lyon.
France, had succeeded in so affecting
silkworms, by coloring their food, that
they would make cocoons yielding col
ored silk, thus obviating the necessity
Of dyeing the silk in the thread or
piece.
The subject has attracted so much at
tention that l called upon the gentle
men and asked them what progress
they had really made in their expert
ments in this direction and received
from them full information on the SUBJ
ject
''In experimenting in this line,' said
one Of them, cit is not expected that
any commercial advantages will be
gained or any discoveries made that
will cause any changes in the industry
Of dyeing.'
Thirty silkworms, Matched June 16.
1902, were divided into number Of
lots and reared on small branches. One
lot was fed on leaves dipped in liquid
to color them.
Some of the leaves the worms fed
upon were colored slight red and the
worms ate them as they eat ordinary
leaves in natural condition. They
grew and developed as if fed on COM
mon mulberry leaves. The general
color Of their bodies became a dark
red and the blood extracted from them
was of an intense red.
When the cocoons were formed, Au-
gust y, pink silk was reeled from
