IS CLEARED
 UP

PADIS, Sept 12.-How an Amel- can white pearl worth $l4,4OO was treated with a chemical, given tenn parlly the rosy hue of an Oriental pearl and then sold for $52,OOO has beer disclosed here. For doing this, Barboza, pearl broker, and Varma Hindoo, were fined and sentenced to imprisonment for faking. Bu use of chemicals they endeavored to in- crease the vaule of the pearls four fold.
 This case clear up the mystery which has existed in the Paris mak- ket for five years since a dealer m precious stones first learned tn e"man pulated pearls" were being sold here.
 Varma, who is lapidary, claimed in court that he possessed amethod of improving American pearls and that he had been promised a share in all profits derived in treating the one which led to his detection, if it were sold for more than $2l 500. He was at work at it when it was seized by the police. The evidence showed that Varma has used on the pearls acetate of amyl and collodion.
 A pearl expcdt, ReinaCh, told the judge that Varma had given pearl the rosy tint of the Oriental pc by glazing it with chemicals but the glazing disappeared when tho pearl was placed in alcohol. Wanna was sentenced to six months in prison and to pay fine of Sl ,O0O while Bar boza was sentenced for three months and to pay a fine of $lO0. In it's judge ment the court stated that sea pears from the Orient are very luminous and attain high prices while the fry less fine, generally white and fol w"" value. The pearl treated by Varma the court added has been offered '" leading Paris and American jew houses which had failed to detect the reception he had practiced The court declared that Valma's treatment add ed no value to the pearl and that it had only a temporary effect which disappeared if the jearl were rubbed or placed in alcohol.
