I ? ?! s Chemistry Revolutionizing Detection of Crim< *r Pans, Dec 24.?A chemist of r? cent years has become the best know detective in France. Edmond Bayl if a small, dark, quiet man; he work .. in a modern equipped laboratory i the Palais de Justice; he is feared b .?>< riminals of all classes, and his ult mate fame promises to surpass th; "f Alphonse Bertillon, the Frcnc 50 finger print expert who died in 1914 ? Dr. Bayle is chief of the technic) en- Bureau of the Paris police depar k, ment. Here all the criminal inform) th'1 tion of the republic is concentrate classified and studied. From this bi reau the expert ehemist and physici rn gives directions in the field of erir y? inal detection. So successful has I .-.i been that thi ignorant crimin ?:asses have come to regard him as worker in Black Magic. His uniqi )2'2 methods have been studied by the p Ih i' department of New York Cit 0f Dr. Bayle rarely gives much atte ion to the personality of criminals tr" tl.eir particular psychology. He wor rather with material things. II ire workshop consists of many rooms a iat passageways, equipped with all t paraphernalia of a big industrial la oratory, and includes a photogrn u ' gallery. Ho has spectroscopes, mici n' scopes and X-ray machines by t in dozen, each fitted for a special pi )ur P?se such as examining blood spo e,j forged documents, counterfeit mom powder burned clothes, and the wrec as age that is picked up on a crirnir inn trail. ng Dr. Baylc's study is lined wi iat b'-oks on science, and catalogue ri .jj ords of his wo;k. In the "words | his bureau there are registered ^ 0 less than eight million names of pi ion sons involved in crimes, past a iat present. ith "The detection of crime today something very different from t OS ' popular conception," said Dr. Bayle t nc Associaicu 1'ress corresponciei ?as "The Sherlock Holmes an<l Arse L?c- lupin stories of great criminals a their feats are no doubt most ent< Laming, but that is all I can say < ' iieni.

Th" uneducated man usu ' commits crimes of passion and bi lality; the cemented man runs fraud. "My methods astound the ignorc criminals, and the have come to f? nit when I enter the courts. The i in called intelligent professional cri ir.al.s seem to have begun to try thwart me, in a small way.

The fear f detection a?.d punishment will not prevent it. "I would like to point out that part of our endeavor has been to help to protect innocence, and prevent the i miscarriage of justice. Science does] no? seek to convict. It looks for the t truth, no more and no less. "During the war a spy ease, that of la certain Vigo, alias Almereyda, at-1 j t<acted much public attention. The] man was found dead there. The only evidence was two spots on his shoe laces. By comparative analysis of these, one I found to be mud and the other paint off his bed, and 1 was able t-> conclude h<> had hanged himself am' thus clear the jailers of guilt. "Another case: During the war a young captain wrote his mother the night before .1 battle in which he was killed. A postscript to the letter revoked a former will in favor of his v ife. I?y analysis of the ink and the ( handwriting in this postscript, it was shown that th?* mother had forged his signature. .She confessed it. though ' y. 1 confession added nothing to thi ^ 1 vjilne of the proof. 2 "We are beginning to eliminate eye itiu-ss proof in crime.

Kor instance it is asserted that 4 at some 20,000 institutions, both re- ' t- ligious and secular, as well as many 4 a- individuals enjoy salt doles, that is , d, free salt from the government mon- , u- opolies. These are of very ancient st origin and bear curious titles, such n- as the "Salt of Grace," the "Must fie Salt." the "Salt of Alms," tho "Salt al of God's Healing," and so on. a Then it has been disclosed that ue great numbers of l'ree doles of wood o- or other fuel exists, also dating back y. to olden days of the monarchy. ?- The Minister for War confessed or that obvious economies could reduce ks the army cost by 21 billion crowns t? lis year without material reduction of nd personnel. The debates showed a suhe nerfluous number of officers in the b- army. In the Tyrol, for instance, ph there are nearly two officers for each soldier, counting: serpennts as offihe cers. >r* The most serious disclosure, how ever, was the overmanned railway adty. ministration, Dr. Odehnal, the railk way minister, admitting: there were ia' 10.4 employees for every kilometer, or five-eichts of a mile, 'th A modern scandal also was reveal:c* id when it became known that the director general of the government nu map and lithographing: bureau, who >r~ is also an owner or director in six n<' other similar establishments privately owned, had closed down his shops 18 and was doing: private work in the government establishment, with gov l" eminent labor, and paying notmng in at. retxlrn ne ? ml Dullness in Silk Trade r" Threatens Shut Down 'or 'L Shimo.suwn, Japan, Dee. 24.?Many ' of the silk factories in the Lake Suwa ' region. where the finest grades of silk ncr . are manufactured, are threatening to close down before the end of the year wing to the dullness in the silk trade ruIf this threat, sholud be carried out it would affect not only the ^0,')00 women reei. i s. but practically the whole community, which is engaged in one way or'another in the industry, so- m m~ Japanese Using More Gas to M Tokio, Dec. 24.?Japanese are l?e? * j ^ coming greater users of gas and gas int t0O,t stoves a"d heaters gradually are , replacing charcoal fires and braz/ers.
