IN THE WORLD OF FINANCE
DIAMOND APPROPRIATIONS
Is SHOW BIG INCREASE.
$36,00O,0 900 Worth Sent Here
in 1909.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 14.--Al-
though the Payne-Aldrich tariff law
a increased the duties on all sorts
of luXuries, 1t seems not to have given
a p~erceptible check to the importation
of diamonds, which had become some
what restricted by the financial de-
preston of 1907. In fact, the imports
of diamonds into the United States
in 1909 increased to $3.50, 600, 900. after
having dropped from about the same
amount in 1906 to $11, 500,O 600 in 1908.
Lack of general prosperity, fear of
what the administrations attitude
toward corporations may be and the
high price of living have, apparently.
had no appreciable effect upon the dia-
mond industry or the diamond market.
as is shown by the following extract
from the interesting report of Consul
Henry H. Morgan, of Amsterdam. to
the bureau of manufactures of the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor:
: conditions have steadily improved.
INC the trade prospects are exception
ally good. The increased demand for
diamonds during the spring of 1909 was
followed by a raise in price OF the
raw material by the London syndicate.
which continued to advance the price
from time to time until now the rough
iamon is fully 20 per cent. higher
than a year ago. The increased cost
of the rough diamond is said to be due
entirely to lack of labor and the in
ability of the De Beers Company to
supply the demand. During the lgO7-S
depression the company reduced its
working force, and finally shut down

WARNS AUTO OWNERS
TO SIGN LICENSE CARDS,

TRENTON, Feb. 14.-State Motor
Vehicle Commissioner Smith has found
1t necessary to send out a circular let
ter explaining to holders of owners
automobile driving licenses what they
must do in order to avoid trouble when
the display of such licenses is required
by inspectors.
All owners license cards must
bear the signatures of the hold
ers, and if they are not signed when
shown to an inspector, he has no choice
but to bring the matter to the atten-
ton of the commissioner in this city.
Commissioner Smith in his letter points
out that much Inconvenience can be
avoided by signing the licenses as soon
as they are issued.

ASBURY PARK, Feb. 14-Founder
Bradley's resort on the New Jersey

tightly that even the drugstores locked

dows printed notices We're placed o n
tanning this legend:

ated when Chief of Police Smith was
ordered by Mayor Appleby to close the
fruit stands and cigar stores at Il
o'clock noon. Acting pom advice of
other officials. the order was ignored.
The directions were repeated In such
peremptory form that yesterday it was
literally obeyed. drugstores having
been included in the movement.

PENNSY PLANS TO RUN
ALL-STEEL CARS ON TRAINS.
ga Coaches Have Already Been
Installed.

NEW YORK, Feb. 14-What is prob-
ably the largest street passenger car
equipment owned by any railroad in the
world is that of the PENNSYLVANIA.
winch, with the airs Just completed and
those in course of construction, has $50
an-steel passenger cars. With these.
the Pennsylvania now plans to start the
operation of all-steel passenger trains
on some Of it's densest traffic.
On August u, 1906, the Pennsylvania
that all future passenger
equipment would be built of steel; not
only steel frame. but steel and non
collapsfble in every particular. No.ex-
pense was spared to build a coach which
should provide the greatest possible
strength, a steel framing which could
not be affected by fire, an inside lining
which should be absolutely u~nburnable.
and, at the same time, one that would
not conduct heat or sound.
Since November, 1906, when 100 all
steel passenger cars were ordered, addi-
tional orders have been placed, and
there are now in service PAS coaches, 10
dlnlng cars, p combination passenger
n baggage cars, 20 baggage cars, IS
postal cars, and one company car. a to-
tai of 324. In course of construction
there are 140 coaches, "a dining cars, As
combination passenger and baggage
cars, 4 baggage cars. AZ postal cars, 27
mail storage cars and II baggage and
mai! cars.
Tine Pullman company, at the instance
of the Pennsylvania, has for four years
been designing all-steel parlor and
sleeping cars, 500 such ears are to
be placed in service on the Pennsyl-
vania.
With the all-steel passenger equip
ment now in service or IN order, and $50
to. be ordered this year. the Pennsyl-
vania will have. in a short time, about
800 of its w steel passenger cars. and
800 steel Pullman cars.

UPTOWN SENTIMENT.

NEW YORK, Feb. Alt Is the opin-
ion of those who nave given the matter
the most careful consideration that
highly speculative interests will at
tempt to depress the stock market be-
cause of certain u~tterances by Presi-
dent Taft in his speech on Saturday
night.
1t is thought, however, that the larger
interests will not be disturbed by what
the President said on that occasion,
and will see no occasion for parting
with the security holdings. Most in
terests thought hat the market would
be lower during the early trading and
might be irregular throughout the ses-
sion.

TRENTON, Feb. 1.-THE numerous
candidates that are springing up to
succeed the late Henry X. Straley as

who wishes to become parole agent
must pass a civil service examination
for the position of deputy keeper be-
fore he can become available as a can
