pean papers concerning the case Of
M. Lemoine, the alleged diamond
maker Of Paris, whom Sir Julius Wern-
her Of the De Beers Mining company
recently prosecuted on the charge OF
swindling him out of 100000 In con-
nection with the financing Of COM
pany to exploit Lemoine's artificial dia-
mond formula. Since Lemoine's arrest
it has come out that he did not con-
fine his operations to Wernher, but
sold a half interest in his secret to one
Edgar Cohen, a London capitalist, who
has made public the formula attached
to the contract drawn at the time of
his investment. The main points of
this formula are the heating Of mix
ture Of iron, thirty parts: boron, fifty
five parts, and animal charcoal, fifteen
parts, in an electrical furnace heated
to temperature Of 1000 degrees. A
current of carbonic acid gas is turned
on at the same time to drive out the
oxygen. Diamond makers and chem
lists appear to be skeptical about the
genufneness Of this formula.

In message to congress President
Roosevelt asked for prompt action
looking to the federal improvement
and control of all the inland water
ways, at the same time transmitting the
preliminary report Of the inland water
ways commission appointed by him
last March. This report finds that it
was the unregulated competition Of
railroads that destroyed or prevented
the development OF commerce by wa
terways. The: president wants congress
to provide for co-ordinating of the
various bureaus dealing with. river and
canal Improvements. He says rights
to water power should not be granted
to any corporation In perpetuity. Only
such charges and tolls should be made
by the government as will pay the cost
Of improvement and maintenance.
