BRiTONS AFRAID.
Favors and Trade Not Coming cheiy
 Way So Readily as In Past

The British people are desperately anxious to see the America cup back again in the old country, but they would prefer even more to know that the fastest mail steamer on the Atlan- tie had her home in the docks of the Mersey, says a London newspaper. Competition is becoming remorseleSs;
 the days of monopoly are receding swiftly into the past. Not many years ago such an angry outcry as that which Mas raised at the statement that great engineering contracts in connec- tion with the railways of South Afr rica had been placed in the United States would have been impossible. British iron and steel makers would have laughed ineredulously at the sug- gestion that their American rivals could produce work more cheaply and more quickly than themselves There iS no suck laughter today. The Brit ish public have not forgotten that it IS an American bridge which crosses the Atbara and that 1t was placed there by American engineers, because no British firm could guarantee its completion within six months of the time specified on the other side of the Atlantic. Whatever the reasons were. the fact remains-a standing reminder that the race Is to the swift When the huge contracts for South Africa come to be placed will 1t be found that any of the leeway has been made up?
