Alfred Mosely Pleased With His
Trip to America.

Liverpool, Dec. 22.-Alfred Moseley,
who has Just made tour OF the United
States with a number of representatives
of British labor for the purpose OF Sc
curing information on American indus
trial conditions, has arrived here on
the Umbria from New York.
Mr.. Moseley expressed his satisfac-
ton with the commissions tour. He
said he hoped the reports would be
published within a few weeks, and that
as result changes would be made in
the methods at present employed by
several English trades.
He said he could not anticipate the
report, but that he was greatly i'm
pressed with the superiority of Amer
lean workmen. The Americans worked
harder and were better trained and edu-
Gated than the Englishman.
Mr.. Moseley said he intended to take
another commission to the United
States in the autumn to investigate
educational conditions.

DOES THIS CLIMATE CHANGE?

During the several very hot sum-
mers recently past there was theory
not infrequently ventilated that the
climate in American cities had radio.
ally changed, and that hereafter very
hot summers would follow each other
without break. There was no escape.
The general use of electricity was do
ing the business, says writer in Bran.
dur Magazine. How electricity was do
ing 1t or why l do not recall hearing,
but that was the all-sufficient eXplana.
ton. venture the opinion that not
one in ten Of the men and women who
talked this nonsense had more than the
faintest idea Of what electricity Is. But
they were cocksure Of the soundness of
the theory. The summer of 1902 has
knocked all semblance of integrity out
Of these unbaked theories and left us
wondering whether there ever was such
weather before. Probably there has
been, and possibly not. do not pre-
tend to know, and am not old enough
to remember the rigors of that famous
1916 when there was frost in every
month in the year. But l should not be
astonished to live long enough to expe-
rience such summer and to hear my
good neighbOrs attribute 1t to every.
thing from changed climate to the re-
venge Of an angry Deity. AS mat
ter Of fact I suspect that the climate
has not changed, but Is always chang
ing, swinging like pendulum back
and forth; not, however, with the same
simple regularity, but in some eccen-
tric fashion which as yet we do not
understand. These remarks do not
mean that the climate and the weather
are beyond the comprehension Of men.
Not at all. l believe that aftA these
things have been under trained Obser-
walton a sufficiently long time the pres
ent mysteries will be cleared away, and
that we will understand much better
than now many of the things that battle
us. believe 1t quite possible that we
may not only be able to tell what the
morrow will bring. but that, to some
degree at least. we may be able to con-
troll it. At present however. the old
wife in the country, the wiseacre In
town. and the government observer are
pretty nearly on par.

Wonderful Scales.

The grand balance or scale used in
the Bank Of England Is probably the
most wonderful piece Of mechanism to
be seen anywhere. 1t stands about
seven feet high and weighs probably
two tons. This scale Is so perfectly ad-
justed that 1t can weigh a grain Of
dust or 400 pounds Of gold. A postage
stamp placed on one Of the two weigh.
ing portions will move the index six
inches. If the weight placed upon the

he will not allow the American Red
line steamer Caracas to enter La Quay
ra harbor, where she is due to arrive
today.
This announcement has created great
excitement among the foreign import

taken by the captain Of the British
cruiser Tribune, who before his depart
ure FRONT his port advised the British
consul that the aracas would be allowed
to enter the port.

NEW ROAD FOR SPOKANE.
Senator Turner Said to BE Interested

Senator Turner Said to Be Interested
in a Canadian Pacific Project,
Spokane, Dec. 22.-The Spokesman
Review says:
From sources which admit of no ques-
ton it is learned that Senator George
Turner and d. C. Corbin, the sugar beet
promoter, who built the Spokane and
Northern railway from Spokane to
Rossland ten years ago, have made ar
rangements for the construction OF a
road from Spokane to the Canadian
boundary line in Northern Idaho, where
it will join the Crows Nest Pass system
OF the Canadian Pacific.
Interests friendly to the Canadian
Pacific will furnish the funds with
which to build the 200 miles of road
Rumors to this effect have been current
in Spokane for several days.
d. G. Corbin will probably be presi-
dent and Senator Turner will be chief
counsel at an understood salary of 500
600 year. Senator Turner is now on
the Sound, where he is arranging legal
matters in connection with it.

million dollars in gold is the amount
of American capital invested in Mexico
by LILY American companies. firms

mates carefully prepared by Consul

Practically all of this amount has

ed in railroads, all of the lines in the
country but three being owned by
American capital. American mining
interests come next, the total invest
ment reaching $S0,0OO,OO0, large

vestments there.
