CANS office, 20 Broad street, where Mr.
Laffan was waiting by appointment
handed the books to Mr.. Laffan, who
took them to Mr.. Morgan, and then
for an hour | sat down and waited.
Naturally | wandered what the verdict
would be, but / wasn't specially wor-
ried. / had done the best l could and
/ was by no means sure that any one
else could have accomplished much
more. So | simply sat there and waited
and waited.
Then Mr., I.affan came out of Mr..
Morgan's office smilng-you see he
had recommended me to Mr.. Morgan as
being competent to carry through the
work. And when rose to meet him
he said, Mr.. Morgan is very much
pleased That was all; but it was
enough"
AS already mentioned, the catalogue of
Chinese pOrcelains was bound in crushed
levant with narrow gold tooling at a
total cost If less than $4,000. OF the
$50 copies printed 200 were bound in
a dark green, % in deep red and 25 in
the royal yellow. Color work, lltho-
graph stones, type and all else was de-
stroyed as soon as the limited edition
was finished. Mr.. Morgan presented
the books to libraries, museums and
personal friends throughout the world.
More than seventy plates in many
colors are included in the catalogue,
which Is a royal octave de luxe printed
on hand made French paper, water
marked and deckle edged and Is SUI
perbly bound, The Innings are Of heavy
silk MORE matching the leather of the
bindings, and the front and back fly
leaves are crushed levant of the same
color, exactly matching the covers but
without any tooling whatever.
In giving instruction for the design
Mr.. Morgan laid emphasis on the size
of the book. He did not want a huge
unwieldy volume, even though 1t would
contain large pictures of the porcelalns
What he desired was book that could
be held easily in ones hands and not Sc
large that 1t would have to be spread
open on a table. A person really inter
ested in studying the porcelains pic
tured and described therein could do
so without fatigue or Inconvenience
This suggestion of practical utility was
also carried out. The title page reads

London. Feb. 3.-In a desperate ef fort to halt the French advance through Champagne and the adjacent Argcnne region. the Ger mans during the past A4 hours have maae seven distinct counter attacks without sue cess in single venture, according tc the French War office report, receiv- ed from Paris today.
 The official statemec. from Berlin says the French were on the offnns- i've near Perthes Gin the R.leims sectionl and their attacks were re- pulsed.
 The German efforts were directeH against the French position west O.

 Of late :nc German, Ir ihe re,ion of LaBassee and Lens have adopted a new form of attack. They open ter- rife muskctry and machine gun fusillades which sweep the crests of the French and British trenches. forcing the allies to hug the walls of their earthwOrks. but almost never do they follow these fusllades with infantry attacks. Today's afternoon report chronicles the silencing of one such effort by the use of artillery. The French batteries fire quickly overcame the German riflemen and , they were soon content to remain quiet.
 l Novelty was introduced into the fighting north of Albert when the Germans flOated several blazing rafts l on which were launched high explos- ives. These came down the Ancre river, but were sighted by the sen- tries and the guns of the French bat teries were brought into action, de- stroying the rafts before they reach ed the bridges which they were l meant to destroy.

Paris, Feb. 3.-The fighting in Alsace is being carried on with the greatest fierceness by both sides. The French began their new attack with an army which had been amply re- inforced and were able to successful lv storm the German positions at Hartmannsweiler-Kopf, Molkenreign and Hirzenstein. They met with a check at but one point. in the valley between the first named places.
 The Germans. thinking their posi- tions were secure. again tried to take the offensive. At oyify one point, north of Hirzenstein, did the enemy meet with any success. and this triv- ial gain cost them dearly. At every other point the French held their ground.

 The grand jury, which returned the Indictments, and on whose warrants the arrests are being made, was em- 'paneled last November at the order of Attorney-General Farrar, after the district attorney had declared the procuring of a grand jury impossible.
