14 THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, AUGUST 19, 1906. COFFEE'S HER SECRETS BARED Discovery by Hindu Student ' Shows Percentages of Chicory. EXACT ANALYTIC METHOD Mahesh Charan Sinlia, O. A. O. Graddato Solves Chemical Prob lem That Has Long Been Bane of Pure Coffee Exponents. That coffee sold to American consum ers has been adulterated with chicory baa been a "known secret" for a long time, but the adulteration was difficult of de tection and credit for the discovery of an easy method to determine the exact percentage of chicory . Is now due . to a ORIGINATES METHOD TO DKTEK MINTE CHICORY IN COFFEE. Malirsh Charan Sinha, Hindu Stndent and O. A. C. Graduate.. recent graduate of the Oregon Agrlculr tural College, Mahesh Charan Sinha, a Hindu student and a graduate of the Al lahabad University. His discovery has been hailed with great enthusiasm by different experiment stations in the United States and chemists freely sfate that the new method will be a great help to food laboratories. Mr. Sinha advances the theory that the capacity of coffee ashes for holding hy droscopic moisture is greater than that of chicory ashes. The percentage of moisture taken by the ashes from the air when exposed for from 16 to 24 hours varies according to the condition of weather, but the difference between the ratio of moisture absorbed by the ashes Is always sufficiently great to furnish the exact data for calculating the exact per centage of adulteration. There Is a dif ference In appearence of the two ashes, coffee ash being gray, while that of chic ory Is brown. ( No Accurate Analyses. There seems to be considerable guess work usually when the exact per cent of chicory Is to be determined. In one in stance samples exactly alike of mixed coffee and chicory were submitted to ten different chemits. The result of each analysis was different. With Mr. Sinha's method It is now possible to determine the adulteration with unvarying exactness, and the entire Oregon Agricultural College- takes pride In having one of Its students make the valuable discovery. In his experiments with coffee Mr. Sinha noticed that, after thoroughly burning samples of coffee and chicory for the determination of ash In platinum dishes and setting them aside until the next day. It could be observed . that the ash of coffee was very hydroscopic, while the ash of chicory was only so In a slight degree. .It was then suggested that this differ ence in the properties of coffee ash and chicory ash might be made of use In de termining the per cent of chicory pres ent Known mixtures of coffee and chic ory were prepared and a comparative . - t i Abe Ruef Tightens His Grip Recent Primary Election Was a Sweeping Victory for SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15. (Special correspondence.) The primary elec tion of. yesterday was a complete tri umph for-Abe Ruef.. The local boss is mora securely .Intrenched than ever be fore. He not. onjy captured 134 out of 159 delegates to the Republican State Convention from San Francisco, but he cut into the Democratic machine to such an extent that he may be able to dictate the nominations of that party. Ttuef has always controlled the Labor Union . party. His -victories of yester day give him a threefold grip ukion the city. . The methods by which the boss brought about this result are In keep ing with some ofshls practices in for mer campaigns. 'Ruef gained his tre mendous victory by colonizing the burned district. The helpless'oondltlon of the city - offered abundant opportunity-for fraud, and it was abundant ly seized. In fact, the election was more of a colonlzlnx than a voting con test Ruef out-colonized his rivals; therefore, the Ruef ticket won. In the downtown .. districts, where usually the heaviest vote Is polled, there is little at the present time but ashes, debris and an occasional build ing. The legitimate vote In these pre cincts could be counted on the fingers of the hand. ' However, retainers by the hundred were nerded Into the burned dlstrlot by the Ruef faction. Thugs, water-front loafers and muni cipal hangers-on were quartered in phacks,- tents, barns, saloons and even In box stalls. ' From ,pne bouse - 47 registered. Twenty-three occupied the back room of a notorious saloon in the burned section. Over a score of men regis tered from 123 Hawthorne street At 123 Hawthorne street is a tent It sheltered an aggregation of adminis tration heelers. From the House of Publto Works Commissioner Eagan right voters registered. The whole election wss a travesty upon popular government. Out in the unburned area Ruef's suc cess was as great as in the lower end of town. Other men have been too much occupied with business, lnsur- table established of the per cent of mois ture absorbed by the two ashes. As a thorough test of this method, 12 samples were carefully prepared and submitted for analysis. Kach sample was burned In a platinum dish, weighed and then exposed to the atmosphere for from 12 to 16 hours and then reweighed. From the per cent of moisture absorbed was exactly ascertained the amount of chicory present. . Although the samples submitted to Mr. Sinha were of mixture unknown to the young" student, the results obtained ex actly agreed with their true compositions. In the opinion of A. L. Knlsely, head of the chemical department In the O. A. C, In cases where the microscope shows that the adulteration In coffee Is chicory, the per cent of adulteration can be easily and quickly determined by Mr. Sinha's method. For his valuable contribution Mr. Sinha was given the degree of mas ter of science by the college and the president, Thomas M. Gatch, personally congratulated the young Hindu student for his remarkable achievement. All the officers and professors of the college have nothing but praise for the young student and he has many letters of con gratulation from scientists of the state. Young and modest, Mr. Sinha does not claim ary credit for himself. 'He main tains that the credit is due to his coun trymen and that he Is proud of being able to do something on behalf of his people. He expresses the greatest admi ration for this country, where he says every one la given an opportunity. "The courtesy of all to me while I have been In this country," he said in perfect Eng lish, "will always remain ; a cherished memory." Flans American College In India. The young Hindu stndent came to Ore gon about two years ago at the Instance of the Swaml Ram Society, of this city, which assisted him In his experimental work at the Oregon college. Mr. Sinha Is now going to England, where he will stay for several months, continuing his researches, after which he returns to India. In an Interview with an Oregon lan reporter yesterday he expresesd his Intention to return to his mother country and endeavor to establish an independent college, adopting the American system of education. - - ' "When I go back home," he concluded, "I will find before me a field which will furnish ample- scope for application of what knowledge I have acquired in this great country. I hope the people of India will be encouraged to visit the United States and see for themselves what equality of rights and liberty has done. This would help India to break down the caste system, the great obstacle In the way of reform and progress. It would also help the world, because the Hindu mind, when enabled to learn the modern sciences, may yet tap some of the great scientific problems that today perplex the minds of scientists." HELD BUCK BY PUBLICITY WHY CAPITAL IS LACKING TO EX TRACT IROJf FROM SAND. Dr. David T. Day in Addreaa Before : Academy of Science Telia of ', " Experiments. Had It not been for the wide-spread publicity riven the black sand dis coveries, Dr. David T. Day, who has charge of the mining experiments at the fair grounds. Is of the opinion that much more progress would have been made in the development of the steel industry In the Northwest. Columns have been printed in the newspapers and magazines regarding the experi ments and this Dr. Day says has dis sipated the hidden-treasure incentive Idea which leads many people on. to make Investments. "Had we kept the outcome of our success secret and told only a favored few I believe capital would be at work to develop this great industry," said Dr. Day at a meeting of the Academy of Science at the City Hall last night "But we told everybody about It and because It is such common knowledge people are not so apt to believe that the Investment would be a profitable one. "I think that we have demonstrated that It would pay to smelt the black sands to extract the Iron ore in blast furnaces. But it will all come In time and some day the Pacific Coast. will be able to supply its own market with both structural and refined steel. "Concentrating tables to separate the precious metals from the black sands of the placer mines are being placed. They will soon -be found at nearly all the placer mines and mil lions of dollars will thus be saved. Concentrating tables have recently been Installed at Lewiston and Cen terville, Idano." By the latter part of this week Dr. Day hopes to have his electric smel ter and mining smelter running In full blast. 'If everything comes off. as he expects he can tell exactly how much It will cost to manufacture steel, from the black sands; .Dr. Day believes It can be extracted and refined at a very low cost ance and home-seeking to pay heed to politics. Not so Ruef. His forces marched to the polls with solid front, unbroken by fire or earthquake. In general, the result was not unex pected. The Republicans realized that Ruef would gain the crown he had long coveted, but had never really at tained. He had been able to control city politics through the Union -Labor party, but had never been able to dic tate to the Republicans, although the master of one of the party's factions. The greatest surprise of the day was Ruefs appearance in the Democratlo lists. He caught tlfe regular Demo cratlo bosses off guard. As far as can be discerned, Ruef has entered the Democratic fight with but one object, and that the overthrow of Superior Judge Lawlor. It is this phase of the situation which has attracted the most widespread attention. It was about two Bears ago that three of Ruef's closest henchmen, Wy man, Steffens and Rebstock, were con victed of ballot-box stuffing. They were tried before Judge Lawlor and sentenced by him to prison terms. Ruef threw all his vast power into the tight to save the three men, but Law lor is a Judge of the highest Ideals, and refused to treat with the city boss. Now Ruef is to have his revenge. Lawlor is a Democrat, and will come up for renominatlon this Fall. ' Ruef has sent out word that Lawlor s head Is forfeited. It was for this purpose that he entered the Democratic fight It is claimed for him that he controls enough Democratic delegates to defeat Lawlor for renomination. In case he succeeds in this, an effort will be made by the better element to persuade Law lor to run Independently. ' A feature; of yesterday's election, too Intricate at the present time to be posi tively figured, is Its relation to the state campaign. Delegates were elected yes terday in every county to the state con ventiop, which will meet early next month to nominate a complete ticket from Governor down. The aspirants for the Governorship, as far as known, are: TRAIN KILLS THREE Fast Express Runs Down Au tomobile at Allaire, N. J. HURLS IT HIGH IN THE AIR Wealthy New Yorker, With His Wife and One Guest, Meets Instant Death Fourth Occupant Is Fatally Injured. FREEHOLD, N. J., Aug. 18. (Special.) An automobile accident that cost the lives of three people and will probably result In the death of a fourth occurred this afternoon at Alalre, N.- J., nine miles front here on the road to Asbury Park. The express from Freehold on the Pennsylvania Railroad, which was 10 min utes late, struck the large touring car of J. George Laffarague, of New York. The dead: J. O. LAFFARAGUE. MRS. LAFFARAGUB. MRS. CHARLES J. LEERSCH. Fatally injured, Charles Leersch. The automobile was crossing the tracks just as the train, running at a great rate of speed, whlrjed through. The: engine struck the automobile squarely in the middle, hurling it high In the air, 30 feet, to the platform of the station, where it crashed down upon a baggage truck, a mass of twisted iron and wreck age. Mr. Laffarague, who was driving when the accident occurred, was fearfully crushed by the Impact of the engine against the automobile, and was burled under ; the wreckage. Mrs. Laffarague was also crushed, her head being partly severed vfrom her body. Mrs. Leersch had several bones broken and -was killed instantly. The only member of the party not killed outright was Mr. Leersch. but although he was alive when witnesses of the accident picked him out of the wreckage, pbvslcians say he was mortal ly injured. He was rushed to the hos pital at Spring Lake. The train was Immediately stopped and backed to the crossing, several physi cians who were aboard alighting to ren der aid. It was quickly seen that all of the party save Mr. Leersch were dead. The automobile party was on its way from Asbury Park to New York when struck by the train. Mr. Laffarngue had a cottage at Asbury Park for the Sum mer. OKers Clark County to Gory German . Vancouver Acrent Say It Is Close Season for GrlKislles. but That All Other Kinds of Game Are Avail able. R ALPH SMITH, the bloodthirsty mem ber of a Herbesthal, Prussia, hunt club, who has written to almost every railroad office In the Northwest seeking information as to the best place to hunt grizzlies, panthers, bear, deer and other wild beasts, will probably bring his club to Vancouver, Wash., as the result of a letter in reply to one of his circulars ask ing for Information. H. S. Mclntyre, de pot agent for the Northern Pacific at Vancouver, lately received a specimen of pigeon English wherein Mr. Smith sought enlightenment on the hunting question, and mailed the same to his superior, A. D. Charlton, assistant general passenger agent. With the letter came advice that Clark County, Washington, is the best place for Mr. Smith and his fellows to come to on their quest of game. "This county can furnish everything he asks about," wrote the Vancouver agent "He will find here plenty of wild game and fish, including plenty of lobsters, al though the grizzly crop is protected just now by the close season." Mr. Charlton's office is almost flooded with copies of the same letter from the Prussian sportsman, who apparently had hundreds of them printed for a wide dis tribution. As they were received by agents, they are sent to headquarters with the request for Information how to proceed. If the flood of inquiries keeps up, it is likely that Mr. Charlton wn is Bue a circular letter to his agents advis ing them in the matter. Street Sprinkling. PORTLAND. . Or.; Aug. 16. (To. the Editor.) Bearing in mind the legend in "time of peace prepare for war" may I make use of the columns of The Oregonian to suggest that the Initia tive One Hundred, the Get Together Club, the Executive Board of the City Councir or last but not least the Board of Health proceed by the proper on Bay City the Republican Boss Governor' Pardee, who desires to succeed himself; . Congressman Gillett, Warren Porter and J. O. Hayes, a . brother of Congressman Hayes. There will be 825 delegates in the con vention. These are now divided among the candidates as follows: Pardee, 359: Gillett, 66; Porter, 86; Hayes. 43. All of these are pledged or instructed. The n pledged votes are distributed as follows: Ruef, 134; Los Angeles delegation, 64; doubtful, 133. By this it will be seen that no candidate has the fight won. Ruef occupies the position of candlestick in the game of "teeter," and with his weignt can throw one candidate down and boost the other as he pleases. In fact, Ruef may be able to name the candidate, m though Pardee has a good lead, he is still several votes short of the 418 'necessary to choice. In the state campaign Ruef and Her rln have clasped hands. It Is understood that Herrin controls the Los Angeles del egation. This makes the combined strength of the united bosses, 188 ' . Three theories, each deserving of con sideration, have been put forward by the wise ones as to the plans of Messrs. Ruef and Herrin. All of these theories agree that the early ballots of the con vention will show a deadlock. It Is on the deadlock that the block of 1S8 dele gates will be used to turn the trick.' To whom will they stampede? One theory has it that it will be to either of the three In the field against Pardee on the cry of "Anything to beat Pardee." Par dee and Ruef do not hitch. Though not an aggressive Governor, Pardee has never worn the collar either of Ruef or the Southern Pacific - The two other theories as to Ruef's plans differ simply as to the man to whom he will turn to break the deadlock. One view Is that he will bring out Schmlts at the 11th hour; the order is that he will turn to ex-Governor Gage. Either of the two would take programme and the guess may not be wrong. How ever anj- attempt to fathom Ruef's pur pose at present must be fruitless. Call- j forata must be oontent to watch and ' hope !n the three weeks before the con- I ventlon, i I means to give us street sprinkling regulations, ordinances or by-laws (as our Canadian friends have the word) that will sprinkle the streets of Port land at any and all times of the year when the dust Is flying, regardless of the calendar? v This Is a long preamble, but I have before my mental vision scenes of dry, dusty, September days, when never a sprinkler, either cart or car, takes is sue with fogs of dust that rise with every passing street car or swiftly moving' auto, carriage or express wagon. Why? 'Tie September and Au tumn has' come. The street sprinkling service in this neighborhood has been above reproach all Summer (since it commenced) and I feel that we should have ordinances that will require the sprinkling of the city streets at all times of the year when the dust flies, even in January if need be, as It often appears the case. - Will some of our organizations take the matter up and carry It to success?

When the three men took hold of Arnaud he tried to fight his captors off, but was finally subdued and taken to - the station.

BODY FOUND IN HIS HOME Matthews Huntley Had Evidently Been Slain by Robbers. SAN DIEGO, Aug. 18. The dead body of Matthews Huntley, with his throat out and bullet wounds in his head and heart, was found at his residence on Fourteenth street early this evening. The ghastly discovery was made by his son-in-law. Rev. Stephen Millin. That rob bery was the motive Is inferred from the fact that Huntley's watch was missing and his money gone. It is presumed that the crime was committed a day or two ago. V AT THE HOTELS. NThe Portland 5". C. Dunning. M. M. Lw ler Chicago; L. Fragel, Indianapolis; C. F. Minnott, New Zealand; E.
