Chrome MINING In Asia.

For many years past chrome min
ing has been pursued as an industry
in Asia Minor The chrome is usual
ly found on mountains from 1000 to
5000 feet high, and is removed from
the pits TO the railway station or mar
ket on the backs of camels.
But while the chrome in the neigh
borhood of Smyrna brought $40 a
ton, it now commands a very small
price, being In this respect like anti
mony, so that it scarcely pays to mine
it, and certainly not in districts re-
mote from railways. AS the chrome

worlds markets that of Turkey
whose mines have never been worked
on a scientific basis with up-to-date
machinery, must necessarily. decline

ARTICLE XIII
Eminent Domain

Section I. Private property shall not
be taken by the public nor by any cor
poration for public use, without THE
NECESSITY THEREFOR BEING
FIRST DETERMINED AND JUST
compensation therefor being first made
or secured in such manner as shall be
prescribed by law.
This section is a substitute for Secs. and
10, Art. XIV OF the present constitution. The
am.ndment consists in the insertion OF the
language without the necessity therefor be-
ing first determined" and the requirement
for Just" compensation.
Sec. q When private property is
taken for the use or benefit Of the pub
lie, the necessity for using such prop
erty aud the just compensation to be
made therefor, except when TO be made
by the state, shall be ascertained by
a jury Of twelve freeholders residing
in the vicinity of such property, or by
not less than three commissioners APP
pointed by a court of record, as shall
be prescribed by law: Provided, That
the foregoing provision shall not be
construed TO apply TO the action Of
commissioners or highways OR ROAD
COMMISSIONERS in the official dis
charge of their duties.
This section adds to Sec 2, Art XVIII Of
the present constitution the words "or road
commissioners" in order to conform with the
existing road laws of the state
Sec. 3. Private roads may be opened
III the ndIl er prescribed Dy law, DuI
in every case the necessity for the
road and the amount Of all damages
to be sustained by the occning thereof
shall be first determined by a jury Of
six freeholders or by not less than
three commissioners, and such amount.
together with the expense of proceed
ings, shall be paid by the person or
persons to be benefited.
This section changes Sec. II, Art XVIII
Of the present constitution by emitting the
first sentence which is fully covered in Sec.
l OF this article. The jury is limited to six
freeholders and interested parties may, at
their option, submit the entire question TO
three commissioners These changes simplify
the proceedings and decrease the expense
thereof.
Sec. 4. The regents OF the university
OF Michigan shall have power to take
private property for the use of the uni
verslty, in the manner prescribed by
law.
without the power TO condemn lands for
its use the university IS at the mercy OF
private owners of such land as may be neces-
sary TO meet the needs and growth OF the
institution. II is deemed essential to the
highest welfare OF the university that no
individual, or private corporation, should
have power to thwart its development, plans
or purposes. This provision places In the
hands OF the regents the necessary power TO
protect the state apd the university from
the exactions of mercenary private owners.

SEBR|NG IN A
BROOKLYN SUIT
IS EBBEI'S PLAN

President Charles Ebbets, of the
Brooklyn team, had a long conference
with Harry c.. Pulliam, the National
League executive, yesterday afternoon,
with a view of materially strengthening
the 1909 S%uperbas.
Ebbets is angling for no less a brace
of performers than Bill Dahlen and
Jimmy Sebring,. For the latter he has
had his snares set since last year.
There seems a more than passing fair
chance that Sebring will be gathered into
the Brooklyn fold. Jimmy has once again
applied for reinstatement to the National
Con mission, and his case will come TIP for
consideration when that board convenes at
Cincinnati January 4. Sebrlng, 1T Will be
remembered. with Joe Ward, of Philadel-
phia; Owens and various other stars, were
doomed by the commission to exc out eter-
nal existence in the Tri-State League for

Tri-State has tired of the high salarled
attractions. They feel their presence is a
handicap, and are anxious on this account
that the offenders find grace with the
supreme court of baseball. The commits
sion. too, is inclined to believe that the
contract jumpers nave ben quite SUFFICIENT
ly disciplined, and there Is q good chance
That Sebring and the others will he rein
stated before spring. If Sebring Is re-
stored to good standing he will surely be
found next season with Brooklyn. Charles
Murphy, of the Cubs, 10 whom SebrlnE
was under contract, has renowned all
claim to the player, and Ebbets will have
