HIGH PRICES FOfl DIAMONDS Value of the Highly Desired Sparklers Has Bee'i Soaring to Unheard of Heights. The economic situation of the world at largo Is said by Jewelers to he more responstbfe for rhc present-high ^prices of diamonds than any shortage of diamonds In the South African mines or any manipulation of the out put by. the I >e Heers Diamond com pany. The following life lire's concerning dia mond prices were obtained from Ant werp. the European center of the dia mond market. An iBiCut diamond be fore the war cost S'JS a carat and $32 after cut ling. Immediately after the declaration of war, the price slumped. Jn? lOlfi the Oemians began to get nervous regarding the value of paper money and started buying all the dia monds they could find. France. Switzerland, Italy and Eng land followed suit and the price went up rapidly. On the eve of the armis tice, an uncut carat diamond was worth $70. Since the war ended, the diamond market hns boomed, owing to the depreciation of European money, the difficulty of exchange and tbo em bargo on the export of currency from one European nation to another. 'In day a carat of uncut stone tinds h ready market at $b">o. The Antwerp merchants no longer seek customers. The market Is swamp ed with buyers. Credit Is no longer ijlven. The sales are for cash. I he buyer frequently resells and the new purchaser sells again at fat profits. Thus the price keeps going up. Large stones are snapped up at unheard of peiees. The Kaiser's Kitchen.
