Comment on Growing Industrial
Competition.
A BATCH OF LOCOMOTIVES
Purchased from This Side Starts the
Talk Chief Justice Russell Crit1-
cises American Legal System
in Presence of Choate

London, May 6.-Publc attention has
again been directed to Americas growing
competition with England in the industrial
markets, by the announcements this week
that the new English trunk line, the Great
Central railway, has ordered batch OF
locomotives in America, while advices from
abroad show that Americans are beating
the English right along the line.
The British , consul at La Rochelle,
France, in a report just submitted, says
that the Americans are fast taking the
agricultural machinery business in his dis
trict from English firms. The latter, it is
pointed out by the consul, wou,- not con-
form to the farmers demand for light ma
chlnery, whereas the Americans have
adapted themselves to circumstances and
make machinery that is exactly suited to
the farmers requirements.
The foregoing is only sample of the
tributes which are constantly found in con-
sular reports to American enterprise and
showing that American manufacturers are
slowly elbowing their English rivals out of
markets which the British thought were
their own preserves. Articles on Anglo
American industrial and commercial
rivalry, which are very fattering to Ameri-
cans, constantly appear in the English
press. The Daily News, in typical arti-
Gle this week on american Engines-lhe
Threatened INVASION" compares the enorm-
Gus progress in power and speed of Ameri-
can locomotives with the slight improve
ments in English engines.
The News says: sit is trifie humiliating
but still none less the fact, that our mod
ern engines, both for passenger and goods
trains have not increased in power faster
than trains in weight. On the other hand
technical experts come back from America
with a glowing account of great improves
ments In every working there"
There was considerable astonishment at
the dinner of the Hardwicke society on
Monday, at which the United States am
bassador, Joseph H. Choate, was a guest,
that the lord chief justice, Lord Russell, of
Kilowen, should have used the occasion to
lecture his audience on the shortcomings of
the American legal system But Mr..
Choate was equal to the occasion and in a
good natured speech said he said he de-
sired to say that justice was added to the
satisfaction of the people to whom substan-
tial justice brought very small cost.
Justice, Mr. Choate added, was within the
reach of every man and he was encouraged
to defend and maintain its rights in court
and his costs were little as compared with
what Mr.. Choate understood was the cost
here. Referring to the number of judges in
America Mr. Choate said he could not see
how it was possible for twenty-five men
to conduct the legal business for $4,000 GOO
people.

BODY OF YOUNG GIRL
May Be One of the Victims of the Pau
Jones

New Orleans, May 6-News reached the
Fly of the finding of the body of young
girl about five feet in height on Chanda-
:. .leur island several days ago, and the be-
lief is expressed that the body may be that
of one of the young ladies who lost their
lives in the mysterious explosion of the
yacht Paul Jones some months ago.
The body was found by Captain Steve
Push, of the lugger Slovinski, who was
cruising in the vicinity of Chandaleur is
land. The Plaquemine Protector, published
at Point-a-la-ha tch4ey today contains
communication from Mr. Ernest Fellon, of
Venice. La. in which he says:
"As We are not aware, in our vicinity, of
any such person having met such fate, I
send you this informal ton, hoping that
somebody will be able to identify the body.
Some persons have advanced the theory
that this unfortunate person might be con-
nected with the wreck of the Inflated Paul
Jones'"
The body found by Captain Push was
promptly buried, but the grave was plainly
marked for Identification. The Paul Jones
was owned by Louisville parties, and left
here in February for Florida. Nothing was
ever afterwards heard of her or her party,
but many parts of the boat were picked
up, indicating an explosion. The body OF
her pilot, Captain Sturtevant, was subse-
quently found. Those who were lost in
cluded gentlemen and ladies having high
social standing in Louisville, Chicago and
indianapolis. Ca

On arriving at the town of Mohoza,
Guino demanded a1oan of 200 Bolivars from
the priest OF the town and 100 Bolivars from
the mayor. This being refused, the priest
and. mayor were imprisoned. Meanwhile,
however, the priest had dispatched cour-
iers to the Indian villages asking that the
natives attack Pandos men. A large
crowd of Indians came and in spite of all
measures taken to pacify them, the arms
of the soldiers were taken away, the men
were subjected to harsh treatment and
finally locked inside the church for the
night. In the morning, the priest after
