NITRATE OF LITTLE VALUE
So Far That Found In Western States
Cannot Be Worked to Finan-
cial Advantage.

In connection with the search for
potash and nitrates in the United
States the government receives many
reports of supposed valuable discov-
cries. A letter recently received by
the United States geological survey
of the interior department describes
cave in one Of the Southern states
which was worked by the Confederacy
during the Civil war for potassium
nitrate. This cave is said to contain
at least 100000 tons of nitrous earth,
which, however, contains only 1 or 2
per cent Of nitrate. The survey now
states that it seems very doubtful
whether such material can be profit
ably used as a source Of nitrate salts.
The minimum grade of caliche now
worked in the Chilean fields contains
12 per cent Of sodium nitrate, and
though there has been much criticism
of the crudeness of the methods en-
ployed there, the work is done by very
cheap Indian labor, and it is doubtful
whether leaner material could be
worked to advantage here, where the
price of labor is so much higher. Sew
eral hundred thousand dollars has re-
Gently been expended in one Of the
Western states IN testing the PROPOSE
ton to utilize low-grade nitrate. The
results have been negative.

Peace Feelers Reported.
Meanwhile, there was much dis
cussion here today of the reports
that new peace terms may have
been offered directly to Great Brit
ain through Spain and rejected with
out consideration. This report grows
out Of the statement by Lord Robert
Cecil. the British minister Of block

peace proposals are being considered

that denial was not made that fCelers
along this line had been put out is

feelers actually were put forth and
very likely through Spanish sources.
What knowledge of any such
proposition Pres't Wilson had is
