 (1usa SUBJECTED TO A RIGID ANALYSIS
ChemfcaI Department, south Carolina College.

Columbia, s. C.. January IT. 1906. Columbia coca-cola BottIing Co. Co.,
 lumbia, s. c.
 Gentlemen This is to certify that, pursuant to your request I have bought in the open market (from the Murray Drug Co.,. an original package of five gallons of .Coca-Cola Syrup. bearing the label of "rhe Coca-Cola Co, Att lanta, Ga Il" and have subjected the same to careful analysis.
 The object of this investigation be- ing to establish the presence or ab- sence of cocaine, and possibly of other injurious alkaloids, I operated on quantities of three to five times the amount contained in a bottle of the carbonated beverage The extractions of the syrup were repeated until the aIkaloids were entirely removed, and different immiscible solvents were us- ed on different portions. The crys- taIIine substance thus obtained was further separated by fractional extfac- ffons. after which 1t was concentrated and tested. Since this concentrated product, which would contain all of the cocaine, failed to respond to the tests for cocaine, 1t is clear that the aIkaloid is absent, or, if present at all, then. in quantities too minute to allow of detection = The active con- stituent of Coca-Cola Syrup proved to be caffeine, and in quantities seeming ly less than in cup of good coffee or tea.
 There was no evidence of the pres- enee of other alkaloids.
 yours truly, (Signed)
 W. B. Burney Chemist.

 Washington, March 2s.--President Roosevelt has concluded to increase the number of American delegates al the second Hague conference. pro- ceedInr which will not have any ef- feet. however, upon the disposition e the various projects that will be cor sidered by that gathering, because each nation represented is entitied " but one vote.
 But because of the compiexity ana importance of the program 1t is feit by the president that the American init of a sub division into committee 1T need be. When the announcement was made last June of the intention to hold a second conference, 1t was Hl- so stated that America would be rep resented by General Horace Porter, formerly ambassador to France, Joseph H. Choate. formerly ambassador 70 tie Rock. Ark, formerly president or the American Bar Association.
 The president and Secretary Root have also selected the additional dele gates but 1t Is not deemed proper 10 announce their names in advance or formal notice that the second confer ence actually is to be held. For not withstanding the fact that searceiy more than sixty days intervened be-. tween this date and the date suggest ed by the government of the Nether- lands as suitable for the beginning of the conference at the Hague, possibly, through some oversight, the formal in vitations to the nations to participate have not been issued This fact may cause some embarrassment to the na- tions remote from Europe which would find it difficult to select their delega- tions and send them to the Hague by the first of June.
 Tn the case of the United States It's only effect is to delay the announce ment of the names of the additional delegates and deprive them of the op- portunity to give proper preliminary study to the program. asffS

Schiff's plan for a conference between the interstate commerce commission and a commit tee of railroad presidents that the best way to clear up the railroad situation was not to arrange conferences. but for congress to amend the Sherman antt-truct act.

 "Fhen we railroad men could look each other in the face and do busines as other people do. Give the railroads chance make contracts between themselves regarding the handling and distribution of trafic and the railroad situation would pretty soon right it. self"

COMPANIES
AND THE PANIC
Most Remarkable Development Of The
Banking Business in the Last
Tee Years,

The most remarkable develop
ment Of the banking business OF
New York City during the past
ten years has been the growth Of
its trust companies. BY paying
interest on DEPOSITS, thereby
attracting business; by not
observing mot being obliged to
do so by law-certain safeguards
required of the national banks,
as, for instance, IN the matter of
reserves, they have cut heavily
into the banks business. In
New York City alone they have
deposits Of hundreds Of millions.
To be able to make money after
paying the high interest on
DEPOSITS that they paid, they
were naturally obliged to take
chances and run risks tnat no
conservative banker would ap
prove. They engaged in ven.
undertakings, develop
ment schemes, etc, that nothing
but the amazing prosperity of
the past decade prevented from
