WASHINGTON, ID. C.-SpecIaI.--
VirGInians here who are familiar
with the Suit pending between Vir-
Etnta aud West Virginia I'm the
supreme Court over the liability OF
West Virginia to assume One-thIrd
Of the debt OF the old State are
amazed at the passage by the Sen
nte of Senator HaIsey's bill
thOrizinR the employment of cOun-
sci at $4,000 to aid the Attorney
General of Virginia In the prose-
cNtton of the suit. IL IL asserted
that the statute of 1901 authorizing
the Euit expressly provides that the
state of VirEfnin shall not incur
expeus~ Tn the prosecution OF the
suft.
The State cannot derive n penny
Of profit fr6W the suit, as the GER
tf1cates of WSSt Virginia Indebted
ness are held b. individuals. The
certificate holders have deposited
with the commission, appointed by
the Legislature, all these certif-
Gates, and have employed two OF the
commissioners TO act ns counsel.
Messrs- John II. Moon, of AIbemarle,
burg.
II Is asserted that the statute will
be violated by employing counsel ut
the expense OF the State.
Attorney General William A An
derson, who will be succeeded in Of
flee by Judge Samuel w. Williams on
February 1st, and who has for many
years been in charge OF the prosecu-
ton OF the suit, was retained by the
Legislature to continue the work
Section 2, OF the act approved March
6, 1900, chapter S25. providing for the
settlement of the debt Of West Vir-
ginia. the following occurs as the con-
cluding sentence OF said section 2:
"All the expenses involved I'm con-
ncctiOn with any OF the matters afore-
said (the bringing and prosecution of
the litigation now I'm the courts) shall
be borne by the certificate holders, as
provided I'm the joint resolution afOre-
said, and the State shall not be sub
tected TO any expense on that account -
Halsey's Statement.
Senator Don p. Halsey, patron Of
of Major Anderson as counsel for the
State in the litigation, said Friday af-
ternoon that the matter had been dis
cussed in the Senate Finance Commit
tee; that that body agreed that Il was
necessary to employ someone; that
the State OF Virginia 70 vitality inter-
ested and has considerably more at
stake than appears on the face OF the
agreement. and that he and the mem
bers OF the Finance Committee stood
ready to assume all responsibility in
connection with the matter of having
him retained as counsel.
Senator Halsey said that the FL
nance Committee was thoroughly cog
infant OF every phase of the agree
ment and the contract and that there
was no disposition to spend any part
of the States revenues unless abso-
lutely necessary. but that this was q
case which met the approval of the
members and that the wisdom of the
action would be reflected when the
case is finally adjudicated in the
courts.

General samuel $. Knabenshue
makes the Following report:
Some time since this consulate re-
ceived letter from a florist in the
United states. enclosing a sum Of
money, with the request that he be
furnished with its value in red tuhe-
rose bulbs He stated that he had
been informed by q gentleman who
had travelled in China that he had
seen red tuberOses grown by native
florists In Tientsin
Inquiry was made OF q German
florist here, resident for many
years, who stated that there is not ma
tural red tuberose but that the flow
ers are artifieially eolored. As the
tuberose of the ordinary white va
riety Is near Towering, the flower
stalks are cut Off close TO the ground
and are placed in water in which Is
dissolved red earth. Of whose COM
position he IS ignorant The coloring
matter IS drawn up into the flowers,
tintng them red-the first that APP
pear being very slightly tinged. but
the color becoming More pronounced
in those which open later, He also
stated that the red color can be pro-
duced in this way by using aniline
colors, not only red, but any other
aniline color which may be desired.
Native gardeners, however. insisted
that natural red tuberoses were
grown. but declined to sell bulbs of
the alleged red variety with n guaran-
tee that the bulbs would produce red
flowers, the payment to be watched
until the bulbs were tested
Finally 2 native gardener admitted
that these are bulbs of the ordinary
white tuberose, reared in ordinary
flower pots ia this way: The open
ing In the bottom OF the pot is closed
with a. cork; the pot Is filled With
earth mixed to q mud with water in
which the colorine matter has been
dissolved; the bulbs are planted in
this after number of small incisions
have been made in the lower half Of
the bulb above the roots, q thin COW
eiing Of uncolored earth is placed
over the earth in the pot TO conceal
the colored portion below. and the
plant is supplied with water in which
the coloring matter has been dis
solved. The resulting flowers have
the tint of the ccioring matter used.
