Ganeshi Lall, jeweler of Agra, India, one of the exhibitors at the Sesqui left here last week for home, taking with him the emerald he exhibited at the Exposition and which is said to be one of the largest in the world. He sailed from New York for London on the Aquitania and will go from there to Agra. Mr. Lall, who has established a store here for the display of Indian products and jewelry, is satisfied with the results of the Sesqui as far as the East Indian exhibits are concerned. He said it did much to popularize jewelry, rugs and other products of that country and was profitable to that extent.
