The coloring process is applied after the picture has been developed and
the print made.

A colorless liquid is then applied to the print, and after that it is
washed again in blue, green, and red liquids. After each application the
print is wiped dry. The various parts of the picture choose their
original colors, and the result is an exact representation of the object
photographed.

Several pictures have been brought over by Mr. Anthony, of New York.
Among them were several portraits in which the flesh tints and the
colors of the clothing were beautifully rendered. A view of the _Jardin
d'Acclimatation_ in Paris showed a group of storks, the red coloring of
their legs and beaks being distinctly visible.

The liquids which produce these results are to be put on the market on
July 1st.

It is but fair to say that there are some doubts as to the success of
this process.

A Chassaigne photograph was sent to the State Department, which persons
who have seen it claim is a very crude affair, and cannot be pronounced
a success, as it only resembles a very poorly tinted photograph.

These persons declare that the Chassaigne photographs are not nearly as
fine as those of Kurz, of New York. These latter are obtained by making
three negatives of a subject--one which photographs only the yellows,
one the reds, and the third the blues in a picture.
