Not Know Identity of Man
or His Victim.

vsrioua cities were today asked to In
stigate a search for a tall, slender

hat, who is wanted to clear up the
murder of a handsome woman found
dead from strangulation last night In
the Hotel Bryant, at Forty-fourth-st
and Slxth-ave.
Today, twelve hours after the dis
covery of the crime, ths remains of the
woman were still unidentified at the
morgue and the assassin was still at
large. The man and woman had reg
istered early yesterday morning at the
hotel as "Ur. and Mrs. John Smith, of
Montclair, N. J.,’’ but the police de
clared today that these were fictitious
names.
Ths murderer had fourteen hours
start upon the police, which led the
authorities to believe that he had left
New York. He carried a suit case
when he left the hotel, but the hotel
attaches were unable to., furnish the
police with the Initials upon It. An
autopsy performed today proved that
the woman had struggled against
death. The muscles of her throat were
contracted and there were dark
bruises upon ’the outside of the neck
and upon her arms and shoulders. Her
tongue was lacerated by ths murderer,
who stuck a towel down her neck.
telephone call may lead to the
capture of the assassin. Hotel at
taches remembered today that about
an hour before the man left the hotel
he called up a number on the telephone.
The police refused to divulge the num
ber, altho they declared that they had
secured t valuable clew from It. Ed
win Craig, the bell boy who discovered
the crime, was taken to police head
quarters this morning and questioned.
“When the woman In the room failed
to leave It, I was ordered to Investi
gate," said he. "I knocked but got no
answer. I opened the door with a skel
eton key and there was the woman ly
ing on the bed with something white
sticking from her mouth.”
There was neither card nor trinket
In the woman's handbag to help Iden
tify her. Her clothing led the police
to think that she was not a resident of
New York. She was about 45 years
old with reddish-brown hair and blue
eyes. Attaches of the hotel said they
had never seen her before.

CHARLESTON CHURCH

Many Georgians would not be sur
prised to hear the cry soon that the
1911 peach crop had been killed. Al
tho It may be a little early for this
annual wall, It Is timely to say that
there Is a strong probability of a great
loss to the crop this year. Captain
R. F. Wright, assistant commissioner of
agriculture, said Monday that If the
warm weather kept up for several days
longer and was followed by a cold snap,
the crop would be ruined.
"Many trees are budding, now,” said
Captain Wright. "The weather has
been as warm as spring and the sap
In the trees has been rising. I have
noticed young leaves and tender foliage
growing on many trees and I expect to
see some real cold weather pretty soon.
When that cold snap strikes us, all the
young foliage Is going to be killed and
all know that means a short fruit crop,
and especially poaches."
LABELS REQUIRED ON TEA
IMPORTED PRODUCT, ARTIFICIAL-
} LY COLORED, TO BE
BRANDED.
Confersnce of Dealers and Officials Re
suits In Decision to Co-operate—Re
lections from Warehouses Have
Forced Issue.
F. L. Dunlap, chairman of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
board of food and drug Inspection, ot
Washington, D. C„ officially has notified
the wholesale dealers in tea that on
May 1, 1911, all the tea Imported Into
the United States, If artificially col
ored, must be ao labeled or branded;
likewise, after that date, all the tea en
tering Interstate commerce njust con-
forpi to the above ruling In regard to
the labeling of tea.
This coloring Is applied by the pro-
dueers of tea In Its native countries,
and It Is generally applied to low grades
that are not uniform In color. By this
coloring they produce a tea of fine ap
pearance, which will sell at 4 cents to 5
cents a pound higher than if It was
marketed In Its natural color.
A conference of representative tea
dealers of the eastern cities with offi
cials of the United States Treasury de
partment was held in New York a few
weeks ago. It was decided that all tea
entering this country should be properly
labeled, and the Agricultural depart
ment shall, In arty case where there Is
reason to suspect that teas are not
properly labeled: make examination ot
the facing of such tens In warehouse,
and shall co-operate with the tea exam
iners to subjoct any tea under suspi
cion to chemical test.
Tea dealers believe that what has
forced this Issue stronger than anything
else Is the vast amount of rejections by
this country In the last few years, re
garding artificially colored teas, which
examiners would not permit to be taken
from the bonded warehouse on account
off the coloring. -
This large rejection of teas, which
had to be taken out of this country',
caused quite an advance In market
prices. Lower grades are up 3 cents to
6 cents per pound. English breakfast
tea ts also considerably higher.
The shortage of Ceylon tea for this
year will be considerable, so with on In
creased home consumption prices must
remain high.
Tea experts say that the tea trade In
this country Is Increasing, where deal
ers handle a good cup quality, but
where the dealer handles only the lower
grades the tea business Is very light.
In his opinion, all artificially colored
tens should he so labeled, and this will
work a great benefit to India and Cey.
Ion black teas.
The process of making tea In India Is
different from that of Japan and China
In the latter countries nearly everything
is done by hand, and the methods are
Insanitary. In China the leaves are
sorted by women and girls, and the
mixture Is pressed nut by treading with
bare feet. They are rolled over and
over on bamboo trays with the. hand,
and are fired In red-hot pans by half-
naked, perspiring workmen.
It Is the same In Japan. A visitor at
one ot the large firing establishments
preparing green tea for the American
market found natives curing It by what
Is known as pan firing.
Imagine a long row of oven* filled
with copper pans, eacn 20 lnchea wide
and 30 inches deep. The tops of the
oven were at about the height of a
man's waist, or just high enough to
enable one to stir the contents with
the hands
There were at lean thirty of these
pane, and over each bent a Japanese
woman, her dress hulled down to her
waist and the upper part of her body
bare. Each was stirring and kneading
and rolling the drying tea. The fires
were hot and the steam rose. Drops of
perspiration stood out on the backs of
the workers, and It seemed as It the
tea might be brewed by the sweat. It
took those women almost an hour to
finish each lot, and after that the teas
were put up by hand.
In India the tea Is rolled by machin
ery. Every plantation has Its facto
ries, where the leaves are withered and
rolled between steel plates, so care
fully graduated that they do not Injure
the tea. The drying Is done by hot
blasts and revolving cans, and the in
sult Is that the tea comes out perfect
ly pure and clean. It Is carefully
graded and packed while warm In lead-
Ined chests for shipment abroad.
