Gently constructed, and, as it was sup
posed, strengthened, have actually been
built. IL appears that even in this perilous
h6d of enterprise the jerry builder has
been reaping rich harvest At two sep
arate fortresses his frauds have been de-
tected. A commission of revision on in
spectlng the walls of the celebrated strong
hold Novo Georgievsh, formerly known as
Modlin, and situated between Warsaw and

constructed outer walls were not more

incapable of withstanding a cannonade by
guns of the smallest caliber. These facts
having been reported to the minister of
war, tho chief constructor Of the fortress
was arrested aud tried by court martial,
but he escaped with so light a penalty as
dismissal from the service. it having been
proved that he suffered from a painful at
lection of the eyes The chief constructor
Of the fortress of Doubno, the other strong
hold concerned, was not so fortunate. The
fortress was inspected by the Grand Duke
Nicholas shortly before his illness, and he
found the walls built so contrary to the
rules Of military engineering that they
were incapable of affordipg any real de-
fense against modern engines OF war.
In accordance with the report which he
made TO the emperor on the subject, an
order was issued that the whole OF the
walls In question should be razed 10 their
foundations and rebuilt. The chief con-
structor solved the problem Of his own
punishment by blowing out his brains,
and all his subordinates who were in any
degree responsible were sent to Siberia
