LONDON IN A BLACK FOG.
Traffic Almost at StandstII Through
out the Metropolis.

London, Dec. "a London was en-
veloped today in black fog, more
dense than anything witnessed during
the last two years. In many places
the traffic was almost completely stop
ped, and the greatest care was neces-
sary to avoid accidents, number Of
which have already been reported.
AS night closed down and the density
increased, vehicle traffic in the most
crowded sections of the center of Lon
don was completely suspended. Some
Of the scenes witnessed were pitiful,
some were ridiculous, and the whole
was extremely weird. There were in
stances in which women became hys-
terical, and even the police lost their
sense OF direction, and omnibus drivers
became confused and drove on the side
walks, until finally all traffic was held
up.
At the main crossings and on the
streets leading thereto, long shadowy
lines of omnibusses, cabs and wagons
loaded with Christmas packages stood
motionlses. The most brilliant cleo
trio lights only served to make the
darkness visible. Torchboys were very
busy.

FAVOR MUNICIPAL CONTROL.
New York Citizens Union Committee
Adopts Resolutions.

Shanghai, Dec. GA report has
reached here that the captain Of the
Russian torpedo boat destroyer Grozo-
vol, which was dismantled ut Shanghai,
August 20, last, has been discovered on
board the British steamer Nigrctta,
which was seized by the Japanese pro.
tected cruiser Tsushima off Ulsan, Co.
rea. Charts and documents which
would have been OF incalculable value
to the Russians are said to have been
found on the captains person.
The report, which is generally cred
tied here, somewhat conflicts with that
contained in an earlier dispatch, in
which it was stated that Captain Reit.
zenstein, of the cruiser Askold, also
disarmed in August at Shanghai, was
the officer who had attempted to reach
Vladivostok on the Nigrctta. In either
ease it is believed the Japanese will
hold the Chinese authorities strictly
responsible for the escape OF the officer
from Shanghai.
Great Britain is also likely to be re-
quired to clear herself in the matter
unless the rumor circulated here is cor
rect that the captain disguised himself
as French officer and in that manner
secured passage on the Nigretta.

Weakened and May Be Dissolved

San Francisco, Dec. 26. - Purchases
of the four sugar jobbing firms which
have seeded from the Pacific Traffic
and Commercial association, aggregated
approximately 40 per cent of the sugar
bought by the association from the re-
fineries, and the dissolution of that
organization seems presaged. The four
firms are Haas Bros, Tillman & Ben

Lewin-Meyer company. Whether or
not the association is able to carry on,
it will be considerably weakened by
the loss of these firms.
