been brought about by placing the COM
mand of the war-ships In the hands of
competent officers 1t is a well-established
fact that the Chinese are not sailors, and 1t
has been stated by an authority on such
matters that there is not an officer in the
entire Chinese navy who is capable Of TAX
ing any kind of ship on a voyage around
the globe. With this knowledge in their
possession. and with the racial friction
which prevailed. 1t is not at all surprising
that the European engineers declined to
commit suicide-for that is just what the
chinese have been doing. A much more
sensible policy has been pursued by the
japanese government; skilled foreigners
have been encouraged, and there has been
steady and successful cultivation of social
relationships. With large percentage of
the population on terms of intimacy with
salt water, with well-educated native
Officers, and having all the advantage of
friendly association with European and
American naval experts. Japan has found it
comparatively easy to humilate her ad-
versary.

If the log book of the American liner
New York Is correct then it is apparent
that the record-breaking efforts which are
being made by some Of the steamships
have gene just a little too far to be safe
The New York's log declares that the rec
crd-breaking Lucania was sighted by the
New York on her last voyage and that the
Lucania was fifty miles north of her proper
route. In order that the non-nautical
reader may understand just what that
means 1t is only necessary to state that
an agreement has been reached between
the several steamship companies to have
the respective vessels travel in certain
lanes" Those lanes are to the navigat tor
as clearly defined as the tracks of a rail-
road are to a acknowledgement and
IL there is breach of the agreement by a
single steamer then there is great peril
Of a kind that does not necessarily exist.
In a general way an attempt has been made
to deny the accuracy Of the New York's
log, but the officer who made the entry in
question says there cannot possibly be any
error on his part. BY taking the northern
course the Lucania would shorten the voy-
age something like fifty or sixty miies-a
good deal of an inducement when minutes
count. With the steady increase of speed
which has been manifest in ocean steam
ship movement the travelling public has no
grievance, for the motor machinery Of
those swift ships has been improved
as to make possible high and continued
speed without dangerous strain, but there
will be strong sentiment against anything
that has the appearance of ''jockeying
and which threatens the safety Of thou
sands of lives. Explanations of the diverg-
ence noted will be looked for by a large
number of people-certainly by all who ex-
poet to cross the Atlantic.
