PRECIOUS GEMS AREIMIIATED
Gem Expert Warns Buyers of Sap
phireS and Rubies.
European PawnbrOkers Chary OF
Lending Money Because of A
Perfect Product.

St. Petersburg, Aug. 20.-A gem expert
of the British Museum, in a lecture the
other day. warned lay buyers Of precious
stones against investing in sapphires and
rubies, which, he said. could now be pro-
duced artifcially in such a perfect con-
dition that the difference between the
product Of the mine and that Of the lab
Oratory was all but imperceptible. The
latest synthetic stones, indeed are so
perfect that even under a microscope
their .genuineness or not as a natural
product cannot be positively guaranteed.
European pawnbrokers are very chsry
of lending money on rubies especially.
and consequently there is a slump In the
value Of that stone. The Russian Car
suffers in pocket by this. as he owns one
OF the finest collections Of rubies In the
world. The st. Petersburg court jew
elers estimate the loss IN value Of the
Cars rubies at 100000. Some time
ago he tried to take out policy Of insur-
ance on them. but no company would &C
cept the risk.
This is the second great material loss
the Car has suffered Of late. Only a
year ago several valuable pictures in
his private gallery disappeared. In order
to avoid a scandal it was officially given
out that the thief had been captured and
all the pictures recovered.
That. however, Is not the case. and
secret emissaries OF the Car still watch
the international picture markets; but
as the cataloguing OF the gallery had been
kept up in a very slovenly fashion. the
chances are that the Car will never see
his collection completely restored. After
the theft became known the Car ordered
that an exhaustive inventory should be
taken Of all his goods and chattels. Hun
dreds OF functionaries were appointed,
but all they have done so far, If st. Pc
tersburg advlces are 10 be believed, is to
draw their salaries with the utmost regu-
larity.

KAISER'S new CASTLE OPEN
Rulers Attend Ceremony, Which Is
Auspicious.
Thousands OF Visitors from East
Prussia Pour Into Decorated
City of POsen.

Posen. Aug 20.-The festivities with
in the Kaiser's castle here. which Is
intended as a warning TO the Poles TO
recognize Prussian mastery. and which
is the flfty-eighth residence Of the En-
peror. were began 1t o'clock this
afternoon. At that hour Emperor VIII
liam. the Empress, Crown Prince Fred
erick William, Crown Princess Cecile, the
Princes Eitel and August. with their
wives; Prince oscar, and Chancellor Won
Bethmann-Hollweg arrived. and the
programme of the formal opening was
started.
Thousands OF visitors from many
parts of East Prussia poured into the
gayly decorated city.
At every place throughout Germany
the celebration was watched with the
keenest interest, owing TO the uncer-
tain attitude OF the Polish population.
The majority OF the Poles announced
their purpose Of keeping aloof from
the ceremony. While anti-German
demonstrations are not feared. It is
probable that the Kaiser's reception
at the hands of the public for the next
few days will be significantly cool.
The anti-Polish press in Germany is
clamoring that the government must
avoid encouraging the idea that it is
inclining in the direction of a con-
ciliatory policy toward the Poles.
