cisco Bulletin.
This is the object Of the Stanford
university trustees and the result OF
several of their business steps of late.
Some of the old vineyard land has al.
ready been sown in rice and much
more will be so cultivated next year.
By attacks Of Johnson grass and
phylloxera, coupled with the fire losses
of some months ago, when the United
States internal revenue wine and
brandy vaults and warehouses were
destroyed, the vineyard has been re.
duced to questionable asset.
This condition led the trustees to
make radical changes. Rice was de-
cided upon because its cultivation in
that part of the state has become a
great industry.

finding it unusually difficult to obtain
it and some refners will not sell it to
anyone except jewellers.
Metals which are frequently mixed
with platinum are osnium, iridium and
palladium. The fumes from osmium
are very dangerous and workers with
this metal must exercise the greatest
care in making alloys, etc. Platinum
is generally hardened with or 20 per

fountain pen points,
Platinum is also used extensively in
the electrical industry, and now, owing
to its scarcity, molybdenum is being
substituted. Many attempts to make
other substitutes for platinum to be
used in jewelry have been made, but
without much success. These include
cheap alloys as well as white gold,
which latter, in many cases, however,
eventually turns yellow. The success
Of white gold was rather precarious

While all Europes spare cash is being

tinues to find money to bestow on the
acquisition Of the flashing stones that
are turned out by the famous diamond
cutters of Amsterdam. The position in

CUT diamond trade is almost dead, ow-
ing to the cessation of orders from the
Balkan states, where before the war,
4 regular demand existed for stones
cut in what is called the 'old-fashioned"
way.
The Amsterdam diamond trade has
always been closely connected with tho
worlds wars. IT owes its origin to a
war, having been transferred here after
the capture of Antwerp by the Span
iards as far back as 1885, and since then
no big political crisis has ever occurred
but the diamond trade has Immediately
felt the consequences. When the pres

TRIAL OF ALLEGED MURDER
SYNDICATE MEMBER ENDS
Claim Band of Gunnen EN-
pIoyed to Kill Reputable
Business Man

NEW YORK, April THE case
against Giuseppe Arichiello, the first of
four men put on trial for the murder of
Barnet Baff. poultry dealer, in Novem-
Der, 1914, awaited only the judge S
charge before submission to the jury to
day. The case is regarded of more than
usual Importance owing to the fact that
a band Of gunner is alleged to have
been employed to kill a reputable bust
ness man.
Baff had incurred the hatred Of some
of his business rivals who are alleged
to have contributed to a fund of $4,000
to pay for his murder. He was shot
down as he was leaving his place of
business by men who fed in an automo-
bile.
The prosecution charges that the muir
DER fund was distributed by a man who
made q speciality in employing gunner
to commit murder and who was subse-
quently killed in dispute over the dis
tribution of a murder fund. None Of the
men higher up in the Baff murder con-
spiracy have been arrested.
The prosecution asserts that the con-
viction of Arichiello and the others who
actually took part in the murder is nee
essary before their employers can be
punished for tho crime.
