Washington, Feb. John f..
Wallace, former chief engineer of
the Panama canal, testifying before
the senate committee today made SER
lious charges against high officials
connected with the canal in regard
to the sale OF the Panama railroad to
the government. He asserted that
before the sale the owners of the road
of which Mr. Cromwell was counsel
declared dividends of 500. 900 more
than the road had earned. which he
said was equivalent to taking the
money out of Uncle sam { pocket He

Benefits of Food Adulteration.

Prof. Stillman Of Stevens institute,
who recently gave dinner at which
most of the viands were manufactured
by chemical means, believes that much
food adulteration Is not really harm
full" writes Lawrence Perry in Technl-
cal World Magazine.
81 sent my boy to the store to buy
pound Of the cheapest rasberry jelly
said Prof. Stillman, by way OF explain
ing his beliefs. The boy brought back
something which looked and tasted like
raspberry jelly. but which never saw a
berry. It cost twelve cents. The cheap
est possible cost for raspberry jelly-it
has been computed-would be thirty
cents a pound-the real raspberry Jelly.
I mean. That represents the bedrock
cost. aside from the labor cost and the
profits. Now I analysed that raspberry
Jelly and found 1t was made Of apple
pulp after the cider was squeezed out
glucose and a few other materials. 1t
is true that II would not appeal to the
educated palate. but 1t brings the lux
ury of raspberry jelly within the reach
of the very poor. 1t was entirely harm
less; It was nourishing. The only harm
was the fact that 1t was labeled rasp-
berry Jam, when 1t should have been
labeled as an imitation. l could give
you many other instances of q similar
kind; but to no different purpose.

Another Expense Account.
Emerald Trebles in Value.

The Qualities for which precious
stones are mostly priced are luster,
transparency, refraction and dispersion
of light. although. of course, scarcity
and demand are the principal FACTORS In
determining the market prices: for In
stance. the emerald today Is treble the
value It was only a few years ago.
This is partly caused by the greater de-
mand. but more on account of the state
of war In which the country, VIZ. Co
lombia from which they principally
come. is now engaged. thereby render
ing 1t most difficult for those engaged
In the industry to procure them.
The emerald mines of Colombia. at
MuZo and CoscuoZ. near Bogota, have
been worked almost continuously since
1858 and have been the means of sup
plying the world with most OF the
emeralds in modern times. There were
mines in Upper Egypt which yielded
this gem to the nations Of antiquity,
but were lost sight of from the time of
the Mahommedan conquest until quite
recently, when some attempts at work.
ing them were made,
The emerald mines in tho Urals were
not known until the eighteenth cen-
tury, and though they yielded fairly
good material for time. their tmpor-
tance is not great, as the stones found
are not OF good enough quality to pay
tho rate demanded by the Government
from the lessees, but they were re-
opened In 1900 by syndicate with lit
tie success, as far as can be learned.
There arc many stones holding the
qualities first mentioned in high de-
gree, but they are little known, because.
In the first place. they are to be OBJ
tanned In larger quantities. and the peo-
pie engaged in the stone trade cannot
therefore mako the profits they are able
to with the scarcer gems, while because
of their abundance and presumably
lesser value, they have been given to
the native cutters, who do not under
stand the laws of refraction and re-
Election, to operate on, with the result
that they are put on the market and
eventually mounted In jewelry. looking
like various colored acid drops, and EN-
tirely lacking brilliancy and those
sharply defined facets which give that
reflection which Is the chief charm and
makes evident the great difference be-
tween the real stone and Its imitation.
The last few years have witnessed
tho great strides which the various
fancy gems have made In the public
favor, notably when used in the neck
chain; at present these are being made
up with all manner OF colored stones,
and If the manufacturer gives as
much attention to the cutting of the
stones as he does to the making OF the
settings, he can produce a really de-
lightful ornament--Mines and Mining.
