bottom of the sea.
curt four-line dispatch from Singa-
pore announces that Selim Habid was
among the passengers drowned In the
wreck of the French steamer Seyne In
the China sea.
1T is believed the message says
that Habid had the Hope diamond In
his possession at the time of the wreck.
If this is so, the mystic gem. at once
the bane and envy OF kings and poten-
tates, has ended its dark story at the
bottom of the Malacca strait.

This was purchased by Henry Thomas
Hope, a banker Of great wealth, Tor S9o'

its possession. He gave 1t to his daugh-

His early career was a wild one. He

They had a troubled life. ending In a
divorce in 1901. Meanwhile Lord Fran

to do so. 1t was bought by simon

After Kidding himself of ii Lord Fran

The diamond was bought in New YORK
and Joseph Frankers Sons & Co. tried to
dispose OF 1T to some American. They
were unable to get their price and the
diamond lay for years in a safe deposit
vault.
Largely because they had such large
amount of capital tied up I'm the stone
the house had financial dlfncultles AFTER
the slump of 1901
The gem was bought in 1903 by Selim
Habib He said the price was $4oO,OOO.
Financial troubles came to him soon, and
last July he was compelled to offer his
fine collection of gems for sale In Paris.
The auction was held July %, and a
report later had IL that he had been COM
PEELED to accept $4,000 for the Hope
diamond. Louis Aucoc, the leading dla-
mond expert Of France, was said to have
bought it for a client.
There is doubt whether Habib would
have accepted this price. and as there
were several other famous diamonds in
the Habib collection one of these may
have been bought by NJ. Aucoc.

Ambassadors Secretary Calls.

Commissioner Gen. Keefe said today
that Bertrand de Salignac Fenelon, sec
rotary to the French ambassador. called
at the department yesterday to intercede
for Vergonjeanne. who. as far as can
be ascertained, is held at San Francisco
as a "stowaway.'
He was informed that the department
had not yet had report in the case.
but, if the decision of the board Of spe-
cial inquiry were adverse to Vergon-
Jeanne, he might take an appeal from
that decision and thus bring the case,
with all the papers. to the Department
of Commerce and Labor for review.
He said the secretary requested that
Vergonjeanne be permitted to proceed on
his way through the United States to
Paris and that a guarantee of payment
of all his expenses while on American
soil would be given. The request cannot
be acted upon until the department is
first advised Of the facts through an ap-
peal from the local board at San Fran
CISCO.
That course will probably be followed
by the French consul general at San
Francisco. who has been advised by the
secretary from the French embassy

LUMBER Is To BOOM.
Puan of ReforestatiOn Approved by
The Public.

AT last some of the great timber
interests of Mexico are to be de-
veloped and within the next few days
the buzz of the saw will be
heard echoing through the vast tim
Der tract of the Mexico Northwestern
Railway company, located at Medera, -
said Charles C. Bladsell, of Chihua-
hua, who passed through this city
yesterday For years we have heard
of the great timber tracts in Mexico
and their development. said Mr.
Bladsell, but up to the present time
very little has been done in pushing
the development forward, for it re-
quires capital and lots of it, but the
march on the forests of Mexico mas
started, it has actually begun. and
the Pearson interests in western Chi
huahua are leading the van. The
Pearson people claim that with their
immense output of pine lumber ,hey
will be able to discourage much Of
the importation of pine lumber that
is coming into Mexico but on the
other hand. they will supply the home
markets and the surplus vii be ex-
ported. Their claim is thai the pine
coming from their forests IS equal to
and in many instances, far superior
to any other pine that is being
brought into this count.y from the
States.
me plan of refOrestation that is
to be adopted by the Mexico North
western Railway company meets with
approval of all thinking people and
is one that should be followed wner-
ever the forestry of Mexico is cIt
away The company has devised
plans whereby their forest acreage
cut away VIII be reforested and these
plans will be followed out at once
at their 3O,OO0,0OO acre tract. These
plans of reforestatiOn will be under
competent men who have made for
estry a study and who have had ac-
tai experience, and it is the expecta=
ton of the company that after so
years of numbering there will be as
much standing timber as there is at
the present time. 1t is not their inten-
ton to have theiri forests fail but
they viii replenish them as fast as the
present timber is cut away
Timber investments are as good
as a gold mine in Mexico and with
the vast acreage of timber in Chihua-
hua, Durango and many of the other
states of the Republic, there is every
opportunity for the capitalist in this
country. for in these forests is to be
found some of the best timber that
can be found anywhere in the world
