STILL INVESTIGATING
COAL TAR DYE PROCESS
Government Official Unable to Con.
firm Alleged Important
Discovery.

DR.. C. C. Pratt, chief Of the bureau of
foreign and domestic commerce of the
Department Of Commerce, could offer
this morning no absolute confirmation
of the statements recently published
as to the claims of inventors to have
found new processes Of making coal
tar dyes and of extracting potash from
feldspar.
DR.. Pratt returned this morning to
his Office from New York. where he
has been for the past week upon de-
partmental matters. While there he
was IN consultation with Dr. Thomas
H. Norton, commercial agent of the de-
partment, he said, and they had dis
cussed the alleged discoveries. but
neither had as yet been able TO verify
the truth of the claims made for the
inventions. ,-.
DR.. Norton is at present working upon
these matters, DR.. Pratt declared, and
as soon as his Investigation Is com
plete will report to his chie1.
skeptical as to Report.
The news of the discovery Of new
process of making coal tar dyes hes
been taken with grain OF salt by
those engaged in the business of cot
ton manufacture throughout the coun-
itry. IL is pointed out. While desiring
that the alleged invention may be a
verify, manufacturers who use dyes are
not placing much faith in it as yet. The
new process. 1t was pointed out by one
oficial of the bureau of foreign and do
mestic commerce this morning. is not
smnnosed to be one Of extracting dyes
from coal tar SO much as it Is thought
n he a method for utilizing the waste
nroducts Of munitions manufacture
little is known of the claims Of the
inventor, and, as stated. neither DIR.
pratt nor DR.. Norton is yet ready
to talk upon the matter.
