Is Undoubtedly Causing Great
Apprehension and Heart
Burnings.
Attempts to Explain Americas
Success Do Not HarmOnize
With Complaints
From Firms Who Have Failed
to Get the Orders Sent to
This Country.

LONDON, April 1o.-America's success
full competition in the industrial market
where she is beating the Britishers Of
their own ground, is undoubtedly eau
ing deep concern and heart burnings il
British engineering circles. The acrimo
NOUS protests of English firms respect
ing the awarding Of the Atbara bridg,
contract to a Philadelphia firm brough
out clearly this feeling. and the attempts
to explain Americas success by glut O
work here do not harmonic with tn,
complaints Of English films, who hav,
not received orders which have beer
sent to America. AS the st. Jane:
Gazette puts it:
If the British manufacturers have SC
much work that they cannot accept con
tracts, they are to be congratulated, but
III that case it is difficult to see why they
are complaining.
More than Evanescent Competition.
The fact is that industrial circles here
recognize that these contracts mean
more h mere evanescent competition,
as IN the case of American engines the
railroad authorities here have conceived
the very highest opinion Of American
work. This is borne out by the state
ment Of Manager Smell Of the locomotive
department Of the Great Northern rail.
way, which recently ordered engines
from America. He said to a representa-.
tive of the Associated Press:
Apart from the fact that American
builders are able to make more speedy
delivery than the English. there is nc
doubt whatever that American engines
are of the highest excellence. and thar
their present features and improvements
are OF such utility as to attract the Gus
tom OF English companies"
How to Worst Us in the Conflict.
The Daily Mail, taking Up the ques.
ton, urges a system of pr~ofit-shariny
with the introduction of the newest and
best machinery as the method s.where-
by America can be fought and worsted.'
though the paper adds: "We must own
mat the nation Is in some degree suffer
ing from lack Of s-trenuousness both in
employers and employed"
The secretary of the engineers So
clety said to the Associated Press:
I'VE certainly regret the transfer

our market, and it would be atfectation

comment on the state Of affairs. We

Two New Houses.
CAPT. ABERCRoMBIE,s WORK.
Has InstiIIed New Spirit in the Dis
heartened at Port Valdez, Alaska.

Acting Secretary MeikIejohn has received
two reports from Capt, w. r. Abercrom-
bic, I'd Infantry, L. S. A, commanding a
reconnaissance UP the Copper river coun-
try, from Port Valdez, Alaska, one dated
May and the other bearing date May TO-
Capt. Abercrombie reports that upon dis
embarking his expedition at Port Valdez
he organized two surveying parties, the
first consisting Of Oscar Rohn, topographer,
and E. G. Worthington as assistant, to-
gether with axmen and chainmen. This
party was given the meanderng Of the
shore line of Port Valdez and Swan Port
east for the purpose of determining tide
limits and the summer flow of glacial
streams emptying into the head of the bay
from the valdez glacier and Low river
country, and also to take soundings to de-
termine the best anchorage and the most
desirable ground for the terminal Of the
trail.
The second party was placed under Oscar
Palmer, topographer, who was sent up to
the mouth of Keystone canon and over the
ridge forming its northern wall.
Capt. Abercrombie states that neither
party had as yet made preliminary re-
port.
Capt. Abercrombie says that on his ar
rival at Port Valdez he found the condi
tons there to be those usually attending
the opening of a new country. Many of
the miners were entirely broken down in
spirit and finances. Their pleas for aid
were pathetic. Men would break down and
cry when they We're refused free transpol-
tation out of the country, while the an
archistic element was in evidence. The
scurVy had thoroughly demoralized almost
every one. Capt. Abercrombe at once
rented and cleaned three filthy cabins and
organized a relief hospital, with cook
house, bunk house and dog team transport
tation to haul scurvy-stricken persons over
the Valdez glacier from the interior. He
also employed the destitute as far as his
authorization would allow him, and in this
way injected a feeling of confidence and
security into the general mass that was
magical in it's effect.
April % Capt. Abercrombie sent out an
| organized trail crew to the mouth of Key
stone canon, where he built storehouse
and placed a supply of stores. In order
to further employ the destitute Capt. Aber-
crombie has established a temporary hay
| reservation, where he will cut and bale
hay.
