long, the advantages of adapting the
gauge to local conditions far outweigh
the disadvantages of want of uni
formity. The actual cost of transfer
ring goods from one set of tracks to
another is a penny a ton, and one ton
can be transferred in one minute.
The main object of the railway, it
was just said, is to connect lake with
sea and thus give easy access to
Uganda and other countries bordering
the lake. Incidentally, however, the
railway opens up to commercialism-
the world is more precise than civiliza-
tion-an immense area of territory,
which may prove more valuable than
Uganda itself. A great part of the
country between Lake Victoria and the
coast lies at a very high elevation. The
lake itself is nearly 1000 feet higher.
These high levels, of course, immensely
increase the cost of building the line;
but, on the other hand, they reduce
the normal temperature to point at
which Europeans can live in comfort.
Already English colonies are springing
up along the route of the railway, ana
even an English baby has appeared. A
lady who recently traversed the whole
route that the railway will follow de.
scribes the scenery at the higher and
moderate elevations as thoroughly
English" Ferns line the banks of the
streams blackberries grow wild, while
in the gardens of the English residents
are found potatoes, cabbages, cauli-
flowers, parsnips, turnips and most ex-
cellent beetroot" And all this actually
on the equator.
The engineering difficulties have been
and still are most serious. 1t is not
an easy matter to carry a railway up a
hight of 5000 feet, or higher than any
mountain in the British isles, crossina
first waterless desert and then coun-
try broken with hills and streams and
covered with dense jungle. The top of
the ridge is now nearly reached, but
difficulties as great remain. Beyond
the highest ridge comes what is known
as the great RITA gigantic depression
running roughly north and south for
several hundred miles The sides of the
rift are too steep to Chamber down in
the ways usually employed by railway
engineers, so it has finally been oe-
cided to let the train down by. a wire
rope fixed to revolving drum. A sim
liar contrivance will be necessary to
get up the other side of the rift. When
that has been done there is a fairly
easy descent to the lake beyond. The
site fixed upon for the terminus is Port
Florence, on the sheltered inlet named
Ugowe Bay A careful survey of the
bay has been made and an excellent
chart prepared. The bay is shallow
but there is an ample depth of water
for the lake steamers that will COM
plete the journey to Port Alice, the
harbor of Uganda.

WASHINGTON, June 2O-Following

occurred on the bridge of the Brooklyn
July Sd, the Navy Department to-day
made public the following report from
Captain Chadwick of his examination Of
Lieutenant Commander Heilner:

June 10, 1899.
Sir: In obedience to the orders of

honor to make the following report Of

mander Heilner, with respect to his
knowledge of conversation reported
to have occurred between Rear Admiral

..At one of the early sessions of the

Lieutenant Hodgson, several other nav
igators. Mr. Comley and Mr.. Scwetz, /
know sided with me. Mr.. Hodgson
up and down the port side of the cabin
of the Brooklyn in which the board was
sitting. 1t is my impression that Mr..
Hod gson claimed that the Brooklyn was
100 yards from the leading Spanish
ship when the turn was made. The
board, I think. put it later at l,4Vl
yards. Mr.. Hodgson told me that he
felt certain they were closer than
/, 400 yards and that their stadimeter
gave 500 yards He said: We were 80

said, No, I mean port, we are close

said he then called attention to the
position of the Texas and told the Com
modore he thought there was danger of
running her down. The Commodore
replied, Damn the Texas, let her look
out for herself This conversation was
repeated to me on several occasions
Everything l say now was con-
tained in Mr.. Hodgson's statement. The
words may have been little different.
He may have said: Don't you mean
s.arboard. Commodore?' instead of the
first phraseology. He certainly said.
