The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1906-11-18

London had last year l,46O hours of sun
shine out of $40 hours between the rising
and the setting of the sun. In other words,
about th~ree-quarters OF the time taken
by observations was overcast and the
balance was clear.
In this city clear days are the rule and
cloudy days are the exception. In London
foggy days are the rule n clear days
are the exception. IL is Of course not
possible to figure many days as absolutely
expression is adopted of variable.
London owes its fogs TO a triple CON-
bination OF circumstances-westerly or
southwesterly winds 325 out Of the S65
days of the year. salt marshes through
much OF the territory owe which the
westerly or southwesterly winds blow and
an almost universal use Of soft coal. Last
year there we're more days of sunlight in
London than there had been on an average
for twenty years before.

remarkable growth during the last few
years.
Idaho is prospecting in all her indus
tries he said, land is progressing more
rapidly than ever before The large areas
that have been brought under cultivation
by the introduction of irrigation on a
large scale has brought many thousands
of desirable homeseekers to the state.
That alone is sufficient to give impetus
to all lines of industry and trade. The
newcomers are men with families and
with sufficient means 10 embark in
whatever business they desire to follow.
They are of the most desirable class of
settlers and are adding greatly to Idaho s
wealth.

GENERAL STAFF ORDERED
British Army Is to Be Reorganized
and Entire System Recon
StIucted.

London, Sept. 12.-War Minister Hal
dane tonight issued an army order
formally constituting a general staff in
accordance with the recommendations
of the Lord Esher commission. In ac-
memorandum Mr. Haldane
says he regards it as marking a very
important step in the reconstruction of
the British military system. IT will be
judged by the men il produces If
they Drove themselves pedantic the
oriSts failure will result: but if they
show themselves capable of mastering
the science of war and importing their
knowledge TO the army at large. the
influence of the staff will increase as
far reaching as il is i'm Germany or
Japan"
Mr.. Haldane says he is hopeful the
time will come when colonies also Will
welcome the assistance of the staff
which thus will become a real bond OF
union between the scattered military
forces of the empire. enabling in case
of necessity a concentration to form a
really homogeneous imperial army"
The order constitutes a staff Of two
principal divisions, the first at army
headquarters and the second staff in
commands and districts, the first being
concerned with all the startegic ano
administrative affairs and consisting
of three major generals, six colonies
twenty-one lieutenant colonies or ma
jors and twenty-seven other officers.
Appointments will be mat1e from Z

up from time to time by the army

mander in chief in India.

IS VETOED BY sTOlYPIN
Meeting of Constitutional Democrats
Is Forbidden, but May Be
Held in Finland.

St. Petersburg. Sept. 1.-THE pro.
posed meeting of the constitutional
democratic party has been prohibited
by Premier Stolypin.
M. StOlypin's decision on this matter
was reached after the attitude of the
constitutional democrats I'm the late
parliament and their present activity
had been exhaustively discussed by the
cabinet. According to a prominent MEM
Der o. this partyA who visited the pre-
mier to secure his Support for the meet
ing. NJ. Stolypin said he considered
the constitutional democrats to have
been an undesirable party In parlia-
ment, because their responsibility was
a cloak for highly dangerous sedition
and criticism
The premier much preferred the
group of toll. because men like AL
ladyn and Zhilkin were at least OUT
spoken. The government and the
world at large knew just where TO
place them. This decision has been
communicated TO the committee of the
party located here. Preparations are
already under way to hold the meeting
I'm Finland. probably at Helsingfors.
The activity of the administration In
putting its land program into force is a
source of considerable alarm I'm the
camp of the constitutional democrats.
The organs Of the party admit that the
amount OF land to be distributed is q
dangerous factor I'm winning the sup
port of the peasantry.
In pursuance of the policy of
strengthening the loyalty of the guard
regiments, the Pavlovsky regiment was
feted today at Peterhof. The regiment
was reviewed by the emperor, who aft
erward entertained the officers at
luncheon.

BINGHAM EXCURSION OFF
Real Estate Association Postpones
Trip to Mining Camp
Another Week.

The proposed excursion TO Bingham.
which was to have been given next Sun
day by the Salt Lake Real Estate asso-
citation, has been postponed for one week
in order that more complete arrangements
may be made for the event.
Ii was originally planned to have the
excursion run from Salt Lake TO Bingham.
and return over the Rio Grande high line,
by way of Garfield. This was found to
be impossible. as the high line. which
was recently completed. will not accom-
modate passenger coaches. The embank-
ments on the curves have not been cut
wide enough to permit the passage of
passenger coaches. The Rio Grande is
unable to furnish coaches. but the Salt
Lake route offered to furnish coaches for
the excursion. These coaches were too
long to make the curves on the high line
and the excursion was accordingly post
poned one week.
