THE TRANSM OF METALS

The most remarka be achievement of science in generations, and perhaps in history, is announced by Sir William Ramsay and some other chemists. who believe that they have changed an atom into another, or have created an atom. Sir Oliver Lodge is not quite convinced that they have done either, and it may be some time before the scientific world shall be convinced that the atom ic theory the foundation on which all physics rest. must be discarded and the alchemists who spent their lives searching for the philosophers stone be rehabiltated
 If the discovery of Sir William Ram say and Professors Collie and Patter- son shall be Substantiated to the com plete satsfactio of the scientific world much time will yet elapse before the commercial utility of the discovery can be demonstrated. It is. of course, pre- mature to attempt to speculate on the results of what is now at the most only a startling scientific possibility, but this possibility cannot fail to sug gest the replacement of clements which mankind is consuming at an enormous rate and which nature is not repro ducing, so far as our scientific men can discover
 It is no consolation to Great Britain, which is already eXhausting it's sup plies of iron ore and must within meas urable time exhaust it's supplies of coal, to be told that there are incalculabe supplies both in China. The United States is vastly richer in minerals than Europe. yet the duration of anthracite is calculated in generations, and not in centuries, and the experts think they can calculate roughly how long iron can be mined in the Lake Superior
