"I am convinced that the trip acrox the Atlantic could be accomplished in an ordinary spherical balloon in a much easier manner than In any other airship tnus far constructed.

In fact I -io not believe thut In any circumstances tne voyage would require more man nix days.

London, Feb. 29. England more than America has cause to complain of Ja pan's restrictive control of Manchur, Is the opinion here. Not only has the foreign trade of the country been mo nopolized by Japan, but the nominal sovereignty of China Is not, permitted even to extend to railway construction. Japan's object in the t freemen t with China in regard to Manchuria, which was made in 1906. has lust been mads plain. China at that time agreed not to con struct any main line which should enter into competition with the South Man churian railway or any branch which should divert traffic from it prior to her recovery of that railroad, 16 years hence. Japan has now used this agree ment to veto any railroad In Man churia. The Chinese Imperial railway from Pekln to Manchurfa, now ends at Hslnmlntung, 35 miles west of Muk den, i This is of much importance, as these lines are linked up and a branch has been constructed to the Important city of Kakumen, 50 miles distant. The Chinese government recently gave a contract for this work to a British firm of contractors, wno have just been notified that Japan has forbidden the construction of the road. The Brit ish foreign office has taken up the mat ter, but tnus rar seems to think that Japan Is the sole judge of what inter feres with her interests in Manchuria.

"Feb. 19. An unusual scene was provoked in the house of com mons in the course of a deftate on a motion Introduced by Hilalre Belloo, liberal member for South Salford, re garding the secret administration or party funds. Mr. Belloc said he had no charges of maladministration nor startling revela tions to make. He didn't say that evils even existed, but he expressed fear that some might arise, and in order to avoid dangerous possibilities he proposed that the party funds be publicly audited. Another liberal, Hugh' C. Lea. who seconded Belloc's motion, contended that the practice of conferring peerages ana oiner uonors on tnose wno naa con tributed to the party funds was essen tlally wrong. He remarked that some months ago a sensation had been cre ated by a vehement attack upon the government for what was called its traffic Jn peerages and other honors., 11 was a matter 01 common Knowledge and gossip in the house of commons, he said, that the title and decoration In vogue were a lacking in dignity, prestige, and moral worth aa were the methods by which they were obtained. and were just as loathsome, corrupt, and nauseous. 'Putting aside the Garter Order and other tomfoolery of that sort," con tinued Mr. Lea, the present govern ment has made twenty peers, thirty three barons, and ninety-five knights, of whom thirty-seven were members of the house of commons." Mr. Lea gravely advanced the theory that this high percentage suggested the Idea that some of the memoers entered the house with a view 16 social ad- vancement. Nobody expressed any j douot or tne accuracy 01 tnis view, out Mr. Lea considered lt useful to suppor his contention by a story that had come within his personal experience. He was, he said, a member of commons committee, the chairman of which had been made a knight. One of his colleagues refused to. congratu late the recipient, remarking that was a matter of commiseration rather than -for congratulation. t "Imagine the knight a feelings," ex Claimed Mr. Lea. "when eight months later the man who struck the jarring note was himself made a knight." The house made merry over the story( snd sn Irish member.
