Making Diamonds.

who succeeded In producing minute ar
tificial diamonds I'm a manner differ
ing, In one important particular from
the method Of MOissan, the French
chemist. whose operations in this d.
rection were a sensation at the time.
MajOrna heats a piece of carbon
with the electric arc. and then submits
1t to sudden pressure developed by
explosions driving piston and
amounts to 5000 times the ordinary
pressure Of the atmosphere In the
mass Of carbon thus treated he finds
microscopic crystals which answer the
tests for diamonds. Moissan's method
was first to dissolve carbon In molten
iron and then allow the iron to cool
under great pressure. The Italian
chemists experiments indicate that
great heat and great pressure are suf-
ffcient to transform ordinary carbon
into the diamond form without q
metallic solvent.
