FROM A BRITISH STANDPOINT.
Attempt of the London Times to Belirtle tn
Intercontinentai Railway Scheme.

Attempt of the London Times to Belittle the
Interccntinental Railway Scheme.
LONDON, Aug. 25.-The Times to-day pub
fishes q three column article upon the pro-
iected Intercontinental railroad, which,
when completed, will link the South and
Central American republics with each other
and with the United States. In discussing
these plans, the Times expresses the opinion
that Nh. James G.. Blaine. the United States
Secretary of State, is a IMAM of grandiose
ideas, and If, as it seems quite possible, he
Is the next President. there will be some
chance of realizing the scheme. Continu-
ing. the Times says that the project aims
to join the markets of North and South
American, but there is no place for q gen.
eral commercial system even in the rela-
tions between these republics. Therailroad,
when completed, would hav to compete
with the great waterways on either side of
the continent. From Buenos Ayres to New
York and from Valparaiso to San Francisco
tho existing means OF transit are simpler
and cheaper than they could ever be made
on q railroad. 1t 10 obvious that the scheme
equally has political as well as commercial
ends in view. To join the North and South
American Republics. even though the first
outward sign of union Will be nothing but
an iron rail, with the supreme center of the
~ ~
q conception of captivating magnitude.
The Times also asserts that the recent
proposals on the part of the United States
looking TO the establishment of reciprocity
with the various republics of the con-
tinent were generally received by the
countries TO which overtures were made as
specimens of absolutely cynical Anglo
Saxon selfshness, and that the proposals
created a profound dlstrust in American
bargains. Touching upon the question as
to where the capital is to be found for the
enormous enterprise. the Times expresses
the opinion hat it cannot be found in the
needy southern republics, and that it must
be raised IN the United States. The latter
would be obliged TO guarantee the interest
on the cost of construction, and there is q
strong conviction hat the United States
would recoup itself for this guarantee at
the expense OF the republics further south.
Many people of practical opinion, says the
Times, believe that the scheme will never
be realized. The price demanded by the
United States for guaranteeing the bonds
of the railroad Will be in commercial and
political concessions, which the other re-
publics could not grant. The United
States is regarded as the rival of England.
and as the states of the southern half of
the continent were developed by English
capital there exists an important party
which will regard any steps toward closer
commercial and political relations with the
United States as a step away from an old
and trusted friend.
