LONDON PRESS TRIBUTES.
Afternoon Papers Comment on the Life
 of Kruger.


 London, July 1.-The announcement of MT. Kruger's death was the main feature of all the afternoon papers heresAs It was accompanied by lengthy sketches of his career. All the papers devoted editorials to the former Presi- dents demise, refraining from anything denunciatory and speaking generously of his remarkable characteristics. The Westminster Gazette said:
 Enough time has elapsed between the end of our long struggle with MT. Kruger and his death to enable us to all pay a sincere tribute to his memory His stubborn conservatism and tenacity to the lost cause was in many respects heroic.
 The Pail Mall Gazette remarked "Englishmens can afford to give him his due. History will be unable to deny that he was a great man."
 The Evening Standard says: "A great figure has now passed finally from the worlds stage. However haneful an influence he may have exer- cised on the affairs of South Africa most Englishmen will certainly con- cede that his abilities entitle himto the fullest measure of respect"

DECIDE ON N. S, R. ROUTE
LEYTNGTON-AVE. SUBWAY.
Changes To Be Made to Let the
Belmont People Bid.

President Orr, Controller Grout and Charles
Stewart Smith. comprising the plan and scope
committee of the Bapid Transit Commission.
yesterday practically decided to report to the
commission in favor Of the subway route pro
posed by the Metropolitan interests few weeks
ago. This runs down Lexington-ave to Irving
Place and Fourteenth st, thence to Broadway,
to Chambers, 20 William, through the financial
district, and around the Battery, through West
and Hudson SITS, up Eighth-ave. to Thirty
fourth-st and thence east to Lexlnston-ave. 1t
would afford "A large loop system for the lower
part of the city. and connect with the Grand
Central Station and the new Pennsylvania sta
ton at Thirty -third-st. and Seventh-ave. 1t is
understood that the commissioners named are I'm
favor OF modifying this route so as to make it
feasible for the Belmont interests to bid for the
contract when It is let.
Another thing favorably considered by the
committee was the proposed route of extern
sion of the Brooklyn extension from Flatbush
and Fourth aves. down Fourth-ave. TO Fort
Hamilton. With this scheme is tentative
proposition for a new subway 70 run from the
Williamsburg end OF the new bridge TO East
New-York A subway over this route would be
about FIVE miles in length, and on account Of
the difficulty OF constructing where elevated
road already occupies the street its cost is put
at S10OOOODO. The extension down Fourth
ave would cost not to exceed S6OO0OOO
The estimated cost Of tho LexIugton-ave sub
way on the lines favored by Chief Engineer
Parsons is in the neighborhood OF S30,O00.OoO.
What adds Importance TO the decision arrived
at by the plan and scope committee yesterday
is the signing by the Mayor OF the two rapid
transit bills which enable the commission TO
contract for subvays without being ham
pered by a $50 100000 limit. 1t IL expected that
the views OF the committee Will be officially
turned over to the commission at its meeting
next week. Chief Engineer Parsons Will 20
over the plans favored by the committee and
will be ready TO make report them
Monday. lie intends to sail for London on
Wednesday begin his duties as one OF the
royal commission TO lay out a comprehensive
underground system for London. In his alb

pare plans so that the commission will not be

contracts.
