DEMANDS OF THE DIAMOND
TRUST.
The wicked and nefarious diamond .
trust has just announced its policy i
to restrict production. The Do Beers
syndicate owns that production could
be doubled with profit, but it prefers
to run up prices instead.
The vis'ble supply of diamonds if j
large; in fact, most of the supply for
obvious reasons is visible. Mr. Ca
telle in his work on the subject fig
ures roughly that 100,000,000 carats
are being treasured by possessors all
over the world.
Though we have seen proeedings by
United States prosecuting officials
against a shipping pool in London,
and against a coffee trust in Brazil,
we fear no attempt to enforce the
Sherman law against the De Beers
syndicate may be ant’cipated. This
particular trust will resist production
at its own sweet will. General apathy
prevails the world over. Except to
(he assessors of personal property for
taxation, the quotations of diamonds
mean little, and it is the direct in
terest of the taxing power to have
prices as high as possible.—Ex.

Deserted Twenty-five Years Ago.
LONDON, Jan. 6.—Samuel Boat, a
resident of Philadelphia for the past
25 years, was divorced by his wife
in London today on the grounds of
desertion and misconduct. The mar
riage took place in England in 1884.
Four years later Boat left his wife
and went to Philadelphia, taking their
only child, a girl. The evidence of
witnesses, one of whom was from
Philadelphia, showed that Boat had
been living in Philadelphia practi
cally ever since then with another
woman and has five children.

TWENTY-FIVE dollars isn’t much
money to spend for a suit of

first-class quality of materials and
tailoring, and what restfulness of
mind as to style that price commands,
you will almost think it isn’t enough
to pay. We carry a large line.
