the agricultural. manufacturing aud

series of conferences which ended dur

In this the leaders canvassed tue sit

immigration is insufficient to meet the
needs of agriculture and industry gen

HOW SCIENCE CUT COST
OF MAKING FINE CUT GLASS

Aside from chemical control in max
ing the very dense and brilliant lead
glass blanks used in making cut glass,
chemistry formerly had little to do
with producing the finished product.
All operations were mechanical. Pat
terms were marked out on the blank,
and steel wheels. with nlftered edges
and armed with trucking sand and
cuts and the finer tracery. Stone
wheels next smoot1aed the roughly
cut surfaces. Wooden wheels with
pumice and water gave an approach
to a polish, and finally rapidly re-
vopving brushes with putty powder
(tin oxide) gave the high finish The
men who operated these four types of
apparatus were all highly skilled and
highly paid. About 1895 attempts were
made to utilize the action of hydro
flu oric acid on glass. in order to e1imi-
nate the two final processes almost
entirely. Many difficulties were en-
countered by the chemists who at
tempted to control this reactio. Fin

appropriations of money from pri-
vate persons. as we'll as Soviet instf-
tutions, were organized by the fight
ing detachments as means to carry on
their work
Their chief aim, however, was to
prevent the Germans to carry off the
gold paid to them by the Bolshevists
under the Brest-Litovsk treaty, was
not being carried through. The plan
was to deraI the train which carried
the gold to the border. The plotters
thanks to the assistance of one rail-
wayman, made all necessary arrange
ments. For the purpose Of derail-
ing they selected a hilly spot several
miles from Moscow. But the engine
driver failed to slow down the train
to allow the attempt to take place as
1t was prearranged.
In the summer of 1920 at the time
of the war with Poland, Semenoff, the
informer, who at that time was a
member of the minority section of
the Social Revolutiary party offered
the services of his little group for dis
organization work at the rear of the
Polish army. The Cheka helped
him to get through the front but he
was soon arrested and under the
threat of capital punishment was sent
to the Varsow fortress.
Semenoff then wrote to General
Boris Savinkoff, formerly Russian
Minister of War and member of the
Central Executive Committee of the
Social Revolutionary party, and
thanks to Savinkoff's influence Sem
enoff was set free, this time for dis
organization work in Soviet Russia
In December of 1920, Semenoff left
Poland for Russia charged with the
task of killing Lenine. But Semen
off betrayed Savinkoff and instead of
carrying out his mission, he went with
a report to the Cheka.

MOSCOW, May 19-Particulars of

Lenane and Leon Trotzky in 1918
nave Just been revealed in a pamphlet
Semenoff-Vasiieff, formerly head of
the fighting detachment of the So
cial Revolutionary Party, organizer of
the attempted assassination and now
an agent of the Cheka, or secret po-
lice.
1t was owing to Semenoff's revela-
lions and charges that a, number of
members of the Social Revolutionary
rested and imprisoned by the State
Political Department and also that
members of the Central Executive
Committee of the Social Revolution
airy party are now about to be tried
before a Bolshevist tribunal
The announcement that these trials
were about to be held has evoked
numerous protests from the Socialist
Party of Sweden, of which Premier
Branting is the head, and also from
the American and Vienna Interna-
tionales and Arthur Henderson. head
of the British Labor Party. The at
tempts to assassinate Lenine and
Trotzky were the signals for the So
called Bolshevist Red Terror" which
cost Russia thousands of lives

Semenoff who is now supposed to
be in the service of the Cheka, tells
in his pamphlet of the military and
fighting activities of the Social Rev
dictionary party in Russia. in 1917 and
1913, and denounces well-known per
sons of the opposition parties, many
of whom have been in the Cheka pris-
ons for nearly two or three years.
Semenoff says that in the beginning
of 1918 it was, decided to remove
Lentne and Trotzy in Moscow and G.
E ZinOv1eff, president of the Third
Internationale, Volodarsky and Ourit-
zky in Petrograd. It was first re-
solved to kill Ienine and Trotzky by
administering poison in their food or
inoculate them with an infectious dis
ease.
This plan, however, was abandoned
owing to some difficulties of a tech
nica1 chara cter.
A new plan to kill them by shoot
ing was arrived at after prolonged dis
cuss1on and full arrangements were
made. Both Lenine and Trotzky
were watched for a long time to
their movements and habits. Lenine
was overtaken when he left a work
mems meeting at a factory outside the
town and shot at with poisoned bull
lets by revolutionary Fanny Kap-
Ian.
The attempts upon Trotzky failed.
He was several times ambushed at
the Moscow railway terminus at the
time of the departure of his train

beforehand. One attempt on his life |

A number of arrests, estimated at
from 100 to 800, were recently made
among the inte1ligentsia of Samara
province, supposedly for counter-rev-
dictionary plotting. Among these were
eight employees of the American Re
lief.
1t is generally believed in Samara
that most of those arrested will be
released shortly but efforts on the
part of the American Relief authori-
ties to learn the charges against their
employees have so far failed.

The most beautiful of the women
passengers on the Maurctania was
Mrs. II. Abbey, Australia" as the
passenger list described her. Her ap-
pearance is so striking that she was
the subject of much of the ship gossip
on the voyage, and when the Maure-
tania reached New York the passen-
gers were generally agreed that she
had come to this city to marry n man
of great wealth and social prominence.
Mrs. Abbey was met at the pier by
a stout, middle aged man who, mani
festly, was glad to see her. He Joined
her as she was talking to n reporter.
Don't say a word, John; he's a
reporter" warned Mrs. Abbey as her
welcomer approached. He didn't say
word. Mrs. Abbey said she was 60

Vanderbilt, to have her 1919 taxes
here reduced from an appraisal of

Mrs. Colford claimed the major por-
ton of her property holdings at that
time were in Newport, II. l.
Mrs. Anne f. Tiffany of No. 81
East 92d Street also was granted an
application by Justice Delehanty to
reopen the default taken against her
for unpaid personal taxes amounting
to $74O.93 This amount was levied
in 1909 on sac, 900 alleged to have been
owned by Mrs. Toffany in the Bor-

declares that the taxable personal
property owned by her in Richmond
at that time was only $l,l77.60. She
also claims TO have owed rent and
wages amounting to $3.50, making the
net taxable sum $927.60. a hearing
on her application will be held later.
