ARTIFICIAL GOLD

Washington, Jan. 1S-The recent
revival of interest in alchemy and
published suggestions that artificial
gold might become so abundant the
natural metal would lose its value as
a basis for currency brought from
the United States geological survey
today statement that no occasion
exists for chemists to hope for. nor
economists to fear the prospect Of
the precious metal being produced
in. the laboratory. 49,.
mo one has yet succeeded" the
statement said, 'in making gold or in
obtaining it from any other chemical
element. The feat cannot be safely
called impossible blu. 1t is fairly GER
tain that if any chemist should sue
coed in Transforming into gold some
that has hitherto been re-
garded as a simple element the pro-
cess would be so difficult and costly
as to make the gold far more ex-
pensive than the natural metal"

Hitchcock Favors
Bank of Nations with
u. S. Biggest Owner

New York, Jan. 1S-A bank of ma
tions, with the United States as ma
jority stakeholder, an international
trade dollar" as substitute for
gold, and conduct Of world business
on a credit instead of a cash basis,
were advocated by United States
Senator Hitchcock Of Nebraska in
an address today before the Ameri-
can Manufacturers Expert associa-
ton here.
Senator Hitchcock discussed bill
he has introduced in the Senate pro-
viding for establishing such bank
of nations with $2,4OO,OOO capital.
The United States. he said, would
hold 81, 800, 100000 of the stock and
bankers. importers and exporters of
this country another 100000, 600,
leaving the remaining $9OO,OOO,OOO to
be purchased by the leading nations
of the world through the President.
The United States. by virtue of
its stock holdings, would choose 13
Of the banks "a directors. Head
quarters would be at New York.
The directors would have power to
issue currency to be known as the
international dollar, which would
eliminate the continual shipment of
gold between countries, according to
Senator Hitchcock's plan.
1--WE ought to use it as basis for
currency and seize this opportunity
to make the international dollar the
money of the world, the medium of
exchange between countries" he
said. "If we do not do this our
gathering of all the gold here in the
United States is worse than folly. 1t
crime. We are playing dog in the
manager with it. We have drawn it
here and we have very much more
than we are using"

About Old Steamer HuntreSS
and Its HallOwell Captain

Calvin A. Cole, who is something
of an authority on early steamboat
ing on the Kennebec river, has just
received letter from M. H. Ames,
a Portland tailor, of 40 Middle street.
asking for some information about
the old steamer Huntress. The rea-
son he is seeking this information is
because he happens to possess an
unique clock.
Il recently came in possession OF
an old ships clock, round in shape.
10 inches in diameter and about II
inches thick" writes Mr.. Ames. 1.-THE
case is made of pine wood and COW
cred with gold leaf. The back has
a label of the steamer Huntress.
There is also label of the maker on
the back, of the Marine Clock COM
pany, patented April 1S47. The clock
does not strike, but only records the
time. I have been anxious to know
when this steamer ran. This world
imply that it was on the Portland
& kennebec line.
"In a newspaper recently there
was an item which said that Mrs.
Josiah E. Watt of RoXbury. Mass.
had donated to the Maine Historical
Society here in Portland silhouette
of a Haliowell sea captain made on
the steamer HuntreSs down the Ken
nebec river in June. 1S47. 1t is
thought that the silhouette may be
that of Capt. John Blanchard. This
might infer that the steamer Hunt
ress ran on the line between Halo
well and Portland. I have been to
the custom house here, but their
records were all burned in the fire of
1856. They suggested that I might
learn something about it by writing
to the deputy collector at Bath, but
before doing so / am writing you. /
wish to know about the steamer
Huntress that ran between Portland
and the Kennebec and at what time,
so that / can be sure of the age of
this clock and its history so far as
the Huntres is concerned
Mr.. Cole is preparing a reply to
Mr.. Ames which will give him the
desired information. The year 1871
opened with a brisk competition in
transporting the increased number
of passengers between the kenne-
bee and Boston. The steamer John
w. Richmond, Capt. kimball, was
on the outside route by night, twice
n week. and the Huntress, Capt.
Thomas Ct. Jewett. was on the same
route by day. twice week. This
plan continued until June, when the
Huntress. by arrangement with the
railroad company, took the line to
Portsmouth. The Huntress contin-
ued for long time between the Ken
nebec and Boston, but touching at
Portland. On July 4. 1849 the Ken
nebec & Portland railroad was open
ed to Bath and the steamer Huntress
commenced her trips from Hallowell
to that place, connecting with the
railroad. The railroad having reach
ed Augusta in December. 1851, the
palmy days Of steamboating on the
KeprCber river ended
