LONDON, Dec. 15. (Now York World

Yerkos' underground electric traction syndi
cate has encountered an unexpected and
serious obstacle. Tho Central London rail
way, tho modol for Yerkos' projected en
terprlso, was constructed olghty feet under
ground, thus avoiding sewers, gas pipes
and electric lighting mains and obviating, it
was thought, all possibility of damaga to
tho residences tunneled under, but It has
been found that this railroad Is rondcrlug
tho vuluablo overhead residences of Hays
water uninhabitable, owing to the perpetual
tromnrs caused by tho trains. China orna
ments havo actually been shaken off tho
mantelpieces, subsidences are taking placo

alarmed, are petitioning tho government for
redress. Under tho existing law there Is
no redress, but In tho acts authorizing the
construction of tho new Yerkos schemes
provisions for compensation to tho house
holders will certainly bo Inserted, render
ing u heavy lncreaso of capitalization ncccs
sary.
Mr. Yerkes' roprosentatlvo said to mo

visions for compensation to householders
and wo will bo ablo to satisfy Parliament
that our system of construction will obviate

BERLIN, Dec. 16. Tho Rolchstag, nfter
weeks of hard work, has adjourned for tbo
holidays. Besides contributing largely to
clearing tho political atmosphere, It did
much preparatory work. Important lntor
pella.tlons on tho coal famines, Increasing
tho ponslons of veterans and relative to tho
I'OBHdowflky-Duock affair occasioned great
dissatisfaction, incidentally eliciting val
uable government Information regarding
government bills, llko tho supplementary
appropriation for China, tho budget, private
insurance and tho reorganizing and regu
lation of marlnors' provisions, which have
all gono to committees with tho assurance
of their final passage.
Tho clear showing by the secrotary of tho
Imperial treasury, Dr. von Tliellmann, or
tho highly unsatisfactory condition of the
omplro's finances occasioned tormy de
bates and an enormous amount of press
comment, which Is not yet over. Tho In

Horr Muellor-Fulda, pronounced ngalnst a

It was Interesting to note that Count von
Posadowsky-Wehner, minister of tho In
terior, who, under Prlnco Hohenloho, mag--nlfled
tho danger of Amorlcan competition
to Germany, especially In tho Increasing or
American manufactures nnd imports, now,
under Count von Buclow, has minimized
this danger, although tho Imports havo
since doubled. Referring to American coal
ho said that at the most within a few years
America will bo ablo to supply part of the

to increase the duties upon Russian agri

Tho British admiralty has thoroughly
awakened to tho Importnnco of submarine
and similar methods of warfare. It has ar-
ranged to tost Varcos' Invention for steer-

of wireless telegraphy operated by Mr. A.
O. Hlgga, the United States consul nt Wey-
moilth.
Tho United States naval attache, Com-
mander Clover, is following up tho matter
closely. Germany has mado nn offer for
tho German rights. Tho Invention has
been considerably altered since it was first
snown to tno ucrman government.
The inventor expresses tho boiler that

with a different noto nnd directs it from n

the object It is ucsireu to destroy, uy means
of the same current whereby wlreleas mes
sages aro transmitted.

LONDON, Dec. 15. Tho nstoundlng and
utterly unexpected reverse of tho British
nt Magallesberg, tho news ot which was
broken to tho nation exactly ono year alter
General Uullcr's defeat nt Colenso, effectu
ally disposes of any hope that tho war In
South Africa Ib nearly ended nnd completely
abated the myth that thn operations there
wero merely ot a guerrilla nature. As Mr.
LIoyd-Georgo (liberal) Bald in tho Houbo ot
Commons todny:
This is ono of tho most sevcro nwerses
suffered by the British, and It Is qulto
evident tho war will lag on for many month!
to come, Dewet Is making KukIrjhI tho
lnughlng stock of tho world. Wo havo 210,
000' men In tho field, yet wo nro unnblo to
protect ourselves from disaster at the hands
of small commandoes drawn from n postorat
population."
Tho oxtont of tho reverse and tho dis
grace of such n largo body of men sur
rendering to n small contingent ot Boers
has created n feeling ot shnmo and astonish
ment which finds free vcut. With some
what cruel coincidence the Northumbcrlands
aro known us tho "Fighting Fifth." Tbo
Second battalion, to which the captured
companies belong, wns ono of tho heaviest
sufferers nt Stormbcrg h year ago. Tho
regiment hns often been pronounced by
homo and foreign critics to bo ono of tho
ilneBt in tho British nrmy.
Aniilvernnry of C'oleiiNo.
All tho forebodings nnd criticisms which
Colonso gnvo rise to n year ago havo been
resurrected by tho disaster nt Mngalleobcrg.
Tho War ofllco has nothing tn do but "grin
and bear It" nnd truHt to time. Until
General Kitchener's forces nro transformed
into mounted infantry nnd tho mounted
police get to work, Mr. Drodcrlck sees llttlu
hopo ot improvement In the military Bit
untlon. But whoever was responsible for
tbo surrender nt Magallcsberg Is likely
to sutfci, for tho new War ofllco oftlclnla
are determined to make cxumpleii of gen
erals or any other officers guilty ot such
gross mismanagement, or worse, which, It
would seem, must havo caused this last de
feat. This stern attitude on thu part or
tho government, however, by no moans de
creases tbo Ignominy with which certain
members of Parliament who aro avowedly
pleased by tho Boer successes nro regarded
by tho majority of the community. At u
pro-Boer meeting cu Friday, ut which Louu
urd Couituey presided, Goneral Kitchener's1
name was greeted with cries ot "Villain!"
"Butcher!" "Beast!" whllo mention of
Steyn and Dowot elicited liud cheors.
Tho Pall Mall Gazetto today editorially
declares that such men as Courtnoy, Bryno
Robcrts and Lloyd-Goorgo ought to bo put
In Coventry nml bo not spoken to by nny
self-respecting Englishman. Tho expedient,
Bovero ns It is, Is likely to mcot with np
provul tn all qunrtcrB, not. excluding thn
moro rabid liberal journals. Sir Henry
Cnmpboll-Bannormnn, tho liberal leader In
tho Houbo of Commons, does not escape
criticism for tacitly permitting his alleged
followers to tako up such au avowedly
antl-Brltlsh attitude.

In view of tho ovents In South Africa
it is senrccly surprising that tho publlu
refuses to bo cnjolrd Into taking a burning
Interest tn tho Nicaragua canal, In splto
ot tho Hpcclnl American cable dispatches,
which break tho records for length and se
riousness. The London Times' correspond
ent today makes u passlonato comparison
between tho present state of affulrs and
that which existed at tho tlmo of tho
Venezuela dlsputo nnd bitterly arraigns
President McKlnloy nnd tho Denote, yet
Lord Pauuccfoto hns not cabled a word to
tho Foreign office, which only heard ot tho
voto on tho Davis amendment, through thn
Associated Press. Such pessimistic nnd
lndlgnnnt cable messages ns most of tho
London dallies nro receiving from their
American correspondents find no rcsponslvn
echo In Downing street, whero deprecation
Ib freoly oxpreBBed of thcso cabled offorta
to apprise tho British publlo of how badly
tho senate, is alleged to be treating their
govornment. Tho Forolgn oftlco officials,
whllo expecting tho treaty to bo nmended,
wero frankly surprised nt tho slzo of tho
majority, which served moro than anything
clso to open tholr eyes to tho fact that
there was no truth In tho cabled statement
that tho railroad Interests wero solely re
sponsible for tho opposition, or that lrrn
tlonat Jingoism had suddenly becorao opl
dcmlo in tho United States. There exists
In tho ' Forolgn ofllco a sane appreciation
ot tho American objections to building tho
canal ami not being itllowed to fortify it.

"Yet, nt tho same time," to quote nn
ofilclul, "wo do not seo why tho troaty
which wo mado with tho people whom wo
believed to tho responsible representatives
of America should bo treated bo cavullerly
by tho seuato. Wo do not regard tho pres
ent issues as of nny great Importance, for
wo doubt If tho Nicaragua cunal will ovor
bo a paying Investment and whoever builds
It, 11 will be of Ilttlo uso to Kugland,
either in peaco or war. What we do regret
Is tho apparent hopelessness of making
tienttes with a country whoso scnato takes
buch oppuslto views to those it empowers
to act In Its h'oholf, Thero seems to bo
nn Impression In America that tho Clayton
Bulwor treaty was secured by tho tuto
ncsH ot tho English representatives nnd
gavo Kngland nn unfair advantage That
view" has never existed here. In fact,
rather tho rovcrBo. ' However, we shall not
bother our heads about tho matter until
tho scnato finishes its labors and wo re
ceive results through diplomatic channels.
Wo aro anxious to know what America
really docs want and until wo know It is
absurd to surmlso what to do, However,
tho Clnyton-Bulwer treaty worked satis
factorily for years nnd ns, now treaties
scorn to cnuso dissensions In America
maybo It Is just as woll If wo am obliged
to revert to tho former ngreemont, tho
blndlngncss nnd equality of which wo havo
never for a moment doubted, In splto of
our concessions tn tho Hny-Pauncefoto
treaty."
