MORE ABOUT COFFEE.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: In a recent OF the Tribune found a
very readable article "A Coffee Making Meth
cd" In It the writer more than once refers 10
Mocha coffee. BY Mocha coffee 1 understand IS
meant coffee that is actually grown in the Mocha
district Of Southern Arabia. not far from abe port
of Alden. I have recently been told by man
who has been in the coffee importing business for
more than fifty years that not for many years
has a single pound of genuine Mocha coffee come
into the United States He says the quantity
grown in Arabia is very small indeed and that
not an ounce OF it ever gets out OF the hands of
the Turks He also tells me that what is being
sold for Mocha coffee in the United States is coffee
grown in the Santos district of Brazil. and hence
is Brazilian (SaEtos) coffee. and no better than
what is known the country over as Rio. the poor
est and most worthless coffee that comes from any
country He says that at Santos are men who buy
of the right size. and sack IL in bags similar 10 the
bags used in Arabia. Sometimes they ship their
screened berries to partners of theirs in Alden
and other Arabian ports, where II is repacked in
Arabian sacks and then reShipped to America
Often however, he says, the coffee Is sent direct
from Santos and is here sold by reputable % job
bers as Mocha coffee. He also says that no living
man can tell genuine Mocha even Java coffee by
seeing ii in the roasted berry or in the ground
berry He further says that coffee dealer IN
YOUR city will acknowledge the truth OF this story,
though true it is. il such dealer knows IL IS
true. He says many of them DO not know this
