OIL FUEL IN STEEL PLANTS.

Biologists and other experts diner

Vast areas of coal deposits exist IN

the time required to consume the coal
deposits of America and England at
the present rate of consumption. In
the meantime vast changes In the

simple reason that all power used In

The diamond is pure carbon and
the hardest substance in nature. II
burns in a temperature of 800 cent?
grade, producing carbonic acid. All
diamonds are not equally hard, and
there is sometimes a varying degree
of hardness in different parts of a
large diamond Some diamonds glow
In dark room; some are forescent,
appearing milky in sunlight Dia-
monds are of many colors-pure white,
yellow, jet black, dark brown. light
cinnamon, green, blue, pink, and
orange, the diamonds of each mine
having a distinctive character. An ex.
pert can usually tell the mine by ex'
aiming the stone. Most Of the dia-
monds of today come from the famous
Kimberley and De Beers mines, In
South Africa.

With only two stops, neither OF

Forty-seven minutes after Brookins
rose from the ground in Washington

attached in which travelled Wilbur

THE SITUATION CRITICAL
Yet There is a Hope at Washington That Events Will So Shape Them selves as to Leave No Rift In the Party.

Washington. Jan. 9.-The present week probably will determine whether there will be a prolonged conflict in- volving the president of the United States, within the ranks of the re- publican party in congress. Conditions had tended in that direction for some time, but instead of adding to the impulse, the dismissal of Pinchot has apparently caused a halt.
 There is no denying. however. that in some respects the situation is crit ical Pinchot has large number of personal friends in both houses who would be inclined to take up his cause if a favorable opportunity presents itself. if they can do so without en- dangering the peace Sf the party. On the other hand many are saying that the personal fortunes of Ballin- ger and Pinchot are of little import ance compared with party harmony and they are urging the necessity of preventing a sharp conflict in congress over the differences between the sec retary and the former chief forester. Whether the conservative council of this element will prevail depends up- on the course of events in congress during the next few days.
 No doubt the investigation of the interior department aud the forestry service will proceed along the lines iE- dicated by the Jones' Humphrey res olution. but it will be competent for the investigating committed either to broaden or narroy the inquiry. If the advice of many leaders IS followed the xa-i1i ha cfrif as possible. especially as Pinchot is eliminated from the dispute as an off cial public factor
 The question will receive next at tention on the floor of the senate. The present situation is this: The house has adopted resolution pro- viding for ths appointment of mem- bers of the committee by the house itself. rather than by the speaker as was originally provided. Without awaiting official notification as to the action of the house the senate com mittee on public lands has decided to report the resolution in such a form as to authorize the selection of the house mefnbers by the speaker. Unquestionably this action was taken with the intention of complimenting the speaker. and it will be reported to the senate.
 Speaker Cannon. it is said. feels that it would be impolitic to take advan- tage of this condition. and override the expressed order of the majority of the house. and it is probable there fore tbst-the senate will steer clear of a controversy with the other chamber
 It is now said that the speaker pre- fers that the house elect the com"It- tee. In case this course prevails the republican members will probably des- ignate the members by caucus. and it is certain in that event that the in surgents will participate in the eau GUS proceedings.
 NJ matter how the general situation shapes itself the controversy between the secretary of the interior and Pin cnot is exrected to be the principal tcpic in congressional circlcs during the week. Officially the question will not come up again in the Ihouse until after tho senate acts

GOVERNMENTS ASSURANCE
Is Not Accepted Generally By Press and People That Peace With Their Late Enemies Has Been Per manently Established.

St. Petersburg, Jan. 9.-The Jap St. Petersburg papers and government assurances that there is no cause for alarm has little effect in quieting ap- prehension that the situation is seri- ous.
 It is stated on high authority that the government has been informed that Japan is purchasing large stores of military and surgical supplies and that Japanese naval and military off cers on leave have been ordered to re- join their colors.
 Bearing in mind the quietness of Japan's preparations previous to the late war. Russian newspaperdom not Asiatics are getting ready for more trouble. Either Russia or the United States must be. in their opinion, the object of any hostile movement on the part of the Japanese. As the situation in Manchuria has given rise to much friction. it is believed here that in case the Japanese are looking for trouble. Russia will be again called upon to bear the white mans burden in Asia.
 The "Novoe Vremya" says:
 No appeasement of the public alarm has resulted from the governmental communication. for it can no longer be doubted that Japan is arming. It is ri fohf har AxrrE cci has the same right and the same duty. Japan assures her conquests by mili- tary armanents. Russia, on her side. must not forget the principal basis of peace. Nobody is excited or provoked or threatened by the silent strength ening of ones position, but everything is saved by it. We insist upon that without respite in the future. as we have demanded it in the past"
 The "Birzheviya Viedomostf' says:
 'Of course the official communica- tion cannot set upon one side the fact that Japan is making feverish military preparations. and as there can be no position of the proximity of a new Russo Japanese war. Japan's enorm- ous outlay on her army and fleet is evidently directed at Nnother object. According to precise information and news arriving from Berlin. Japan is preparing to annex Corea shortly. and it is evident these military prepara- tions are the best guarantee of the forced consent of Russia to the annex ation."
 The "Rech' says:
 We are willing to believe NJ. Izvol- sky's declaration. butrin order to be really sure of the morrow it is indis- pensable that not only our diplomacy should be in order. but also that our means of defense should attain the de- sired standard"

FRANCE AND GERMANY
 BECOMING FRIENDS
Reported Coming Meeting of Kaiser
 and President.

Berlin, Jan. 9-Evidences are not lacking of a growing friendliness be- tween France and Germany. It is cer tain that the governments of both countries are doing whatever they can. to dissipate the traditional enmity between the two peoples and to es- tablish if not an entente cordial at least a. more f-iend'r feeling. An evil dence of this is the report that meet ing between the kaiser and President Fallieres had been arranged at the in auguration of/the Oceanogrophical in stitute at Monaco in the spring.
 Despite the denials of the French press that such a meeting has been arranged. the matter has been unoffi- cially discussed and there is a strong probability that the two rulers will meet at Monaco.
 Another evidence of the growing friendiness is the publication in Der lin of a French paper. the Journal dAllemagne devoted to the interna- tional commerce between the respect i've nations.
 The prospectus contains the state ment that no politics will find place in the coiunnS or the new puDhcdtion, and it expresses the sentiment that the relations between the two great "Kul- tur nations" are now, and should con- tinue to be, much better than simply correct"
 The spectacular feature of the enter prise-this being regarded here as the necessarily French phase-is the sale of the paper on the streets of Berlin by "camelots." specially imported from Paris.
