our committee beg that the members Of

action OF this Chamber tends 10 the encour-
agement Of socia,istic or communistic prin-
ciples, is on parity with much of The other
reasoning OF the presidents Of the great trunk
lines. They seem 10 be entirely oblivious of

are entitled to equal rights if the discovery

property OF these gentlemen, then the srgu-
ment Of Messrs. Vanderbilt and Jewett
might be considered valid, and the efforts Of
your committee sedtious, socislistic, and
worthy of condemnation.

will far exceed any figure which

Greytown Will far exceed any ngure which
the sangujne advocates OF the scheme are
now willing to place upon II. The cost OF
maintaining It's harbors when improved,
that OF dredging the canal and Keeping 1t
and It's locks in repair. and a hundred other
minor expenses, demand the attention Of
those by whose products and labor the ne
cessary interest on the capital Invested must
be paid.
CAPTAIN Eads concludes as follows
Standing in your presence to-day and con.
scious OF the full import OF my words, de-
clare 10 you
1. That ship railway can be constructed
at one half the cost OF a canal with locks,
and in one half the time.
2. That when completed, the railway can
be maintained and operated at a cost not
exceeding that OF canal.
g: That your largest vessels, with their
cargoes, can be safely carried from ocean TO
ocean in one half the time required for a
passage through the canal. These con-
siderations alone, IL seems 10 me. should de-
eide you at once in favor Of the railway.
But these are not the only ones. The rail-
road, when completed, can be enlarged from
time to time, as the wants OF commerce may
demand. And should the commerce using
The road demand double instead OF single
line OF tracks, the work can he speedily done,
and ut reasonable expense, and with
out interfering With ITS traffic. An
other matter which desire TO suggest Is
this Wherever n canal is practicable rail-
way is also practicable; and at some points
q railway could be constructed where a
canal would be out OF the question. As you
reduce the distance for the carrying OF your
freight you reduce the cost of transporta-
tion. There can be no doubt ship-raIlway
could be constructed at Tehuantepec, and II
this route were selected almost 700 miles OF
transportation could be saved over that me-
cessary il the transit was by Nicaragua.

African Explorers Killed.

fFrom the London Standaru.I
The sad news which has reached Zanzibar
OF the murder OF Captain Carter and Mr..
Cadenhead adds two more victims to the
long list OF those who have sacrificed their
lives in the interest OF African exploration.
Hitherto disease, and not violence, has been
the cause OF the fatality which has over
taken so many OF the explorers OF the
Dark Continent. From the facts which
have reached us it would, however, APP
pear that the gallant pioneers whose loss
we have now 10 deplore met their death
at the hands OF chief named Wrambo.
But as the expedition which they COM
manded was at the latest date in the
country OF robber king called Mer-
cambo, not far from Lake Tanganyika, the
name has in all probability been altered in
telegraphing. Messrs. Carter and Caden-
head, though Englishmen, were employed
under the auspices OF the Belgian branch
Of The international Society for the Explora-
tion OF Africa. The leading object Of the
expedition sent out under lis auspices $
not so much geographical discovery as the
establishment Of centres OF civiizins intlu-
ence and commerce at various points OF the
interior. The first OF these stations was
founded in August, 1879, by NJ. Gambler,
at Karema. on the eastern shore OF Lake
Tanpanyika. 40 miles south OF Uiiii. lu
December NJ. Gambler was joined by Messrs
Popelin and Carter, with the Indian ele'
plants, OF which only one remained. An
other reinforcement, constituting the fourth
expedition. under Messrs. Burdo, Rogers
and Cadenhead, was far on its. way wber
last heard OF, and was sanguine OF soon
communicating with Mr.. Stanley. The lat
ter. by the aid OF steam launches, is en-
deayoring to ascend the Congo, Which
amid SO many peris, be descended three
years ago. The introduction OF elephants
| into African exploration was great sleI
in advance, and it was fondly believed ina
one OF the chief difficulties in the path. o
travel had at last been overcome. Wlethe
all OF the Europeans have mes the late 0
Messrs. Carter and Cadephead we have u
means as yet Of learning.
