The scare about the metiiciency of the English
navy has led to several curious results. One / 8
an increase of the circulation of the Pall Mall
Gazette which was the first and has been the
foremost in sounding the tocsin of danger
Another result has been the comparison OF the
eminent firm Of shipbuilders. John Elder 4 Co.,
with John Roach, of Philadelphia who is be-
lived here to have profted largely by naval con-
tracts in which an adequate equiva lent was not
given to the government The present Secretary
of the American navy also comes In for share
OF carrlcature and abuse. by being compared to
the late First Lord Of the Admiralty. the Rt
Hon. VIM. H. Smith, who has already been
pilored in Pinafore. All this however,is child =

tonight from Berlin. The naval authorities Of
Germany have b cen prompt in taking the cue
