is more like an American town than many g.,
of the others. Its business blocks are of
three and four stories, made of stone or
brick. One of the finest Office structures
is the White Star buildings, now owned by
the American shipping trust. 1t is a COM
6ination Of red brick and sandstone, sit
uated not far from the docks.
The city postofnce of Liverpool is, next
to the London postofice, the largest in
Great Britain, having cost about a mil
lion dollars to build. 1t is the govern
ment telegraph office as well and con-
nected with it there is a government tele-
graph school. The telegraphs here belong
to the government and in the postof1ce
the telegraphers have their own dining
room, with a kitchen, a scullery and q
grocery store. There are pneumatic tubes
running from the telegraph department
to the postofice, the different newspaper
Offices, and thousands of kilograms which
come to the press daily are thus trans
mitted more quickly than by messengers.
Among the other great buildings of
Liverpool are the cotton exchange, where
the brokers meet to buy and sell Amerl-
can and other cottons, and st. Georges
hall, which is used partly as a court room
and partly for public meetings and con-

John Bulls Shipping.
I have yet to meet a single Englishman
h is pleased with the shipping combina-
tion. I have talked with people Of all
classes and they all look upon 1t as a very
serious thing for Great Britain, and feel
that 1t may mean the loss Of her supremacy
on the ocean. They fear that the other
great ships Of the country may go the same
way, and that, through our trade associa-
ton with France and Germany, Great
Britain will lose her large carrying trade.
Today the British have more ships than
any other people of the world. They have.
all told, about $4,000 vessels in the United
Kingdom and the colonies, and their ton
mage amounts to more than ten millions.
They carry about two-thirds Of their own
goods and a large proportion Of those of
other nations. They carry more than so
per cent OF our exports and imports. They
carry A per cent Of the foreign trade or
Russia and a like amount Of that of Bel
GUM and Holland, 43 per cent Of the i'm
ports and exports Of France, 29 per cent Of
the imports and exports of Germany and
70 per cent of those Of Italy are carried in
English bottoms.
There are more than a quarter Of a mil
lion men from this country whose business
is following the sea, and there are thou
sands at home interested in ships and ship
ping. The loss Of the shipping trade would
therefore imperil the lifework and positions
OF these thousands, and also that of the
other businesses connected with them.
The national feeling in regard to British
supremacy on the seas is still very strong.
AS children they have been taught that the
oceans are to a large extent their property,

New Powerful Explosive.

New York. July 31.-A new time fuse
for use on armor- piercing shells loaded
with recently discovered secret eX-
plosive of great power has been invent
ed by war department ordnance experts
and will, according to a dispatch from
Washington, revolutioniZe foreign war
ship building.
Tests of the explosive and fuse have
been made and so long as the United
States government holds the secret,
foreign battleships either must double
their steel walls or be as wooden frig-
ates against the new destroyer.
General Crozer chief of ordnance, is
quoted as having said that a test of the
new explosive has been conducted with
eminent success at the Sandy Hook
proving grounds, that the shell carried
its contents thru the thickest armor,
and that the fuse lived long enough to
explode on the interior. The greatest
penetration secured was that shell
fired from twelve inch gun. 1t pierced
fourteen-inch krupp armor before de-
tonation. The heaviest shield now in
use is said to be only twelve inches

that Great Britain, with her large trade
interests in the east. probably would be
the first nation to conclude a treaty.
1t is probable that the United States
and the powers signing the Pekin

embodied in the Pellin treaty, each of
the powers will have its own conven-

commercial relations.
The revision which Great Britain
proposes to China in the trade treaty, it

suits obtained by Great Britain fall
short of this governments eNpecta-

CORONATION WILL TAKE PLACE
Little Doubt That the King Will Be
Able to Carry Out His Part.


London, July 3l.-The latest anc
most reliable information indicates that
King Edwards doctors We're not mis-
upon which his majesty could be
crowned. The sinister rumors which
have pervaded all classes for the last
few days now appear to have lost that
semblance of probability which made
even the members of the cabinet nel-
vous lest another postponement OF the
coronation might be necessary
The apprehension that King Edward
would be unable to stand the strain OF
the coronation ceremony has been
greatly lessened by the announcement
that his majesty is now permitted to
walk with the aid of stick.
Another late telegram from Cowes
Isle of Wight, saying that nearly all re-
strietions upon the kings diet has been
withdrawn. has been welcomed as evil
dence that the recent omnous dcduc-
tons We're drawn without due allow

on the deck of the royal yacht and

Those who drew differences from the
fact that the invitations to Westmn-
ster Abbey were not dated have had
their fears dissipated by the proclama-
tion published in the Gazette last night
fixing August as the date for the cor
onation.
According to the present arrange
ments King Edward and Queen Alex

or S for Buckingham palace, and will
return to the royal yacht August is,
when the entire fleet will pass before
King Edward and salute him, thus
