SERIOUS DAMAGE
DONE BY Rains
Breaking Of Exceptional Drought
in England Proves Costly
to Landlords
SORRY WILEY CANNOT COME
General Regret That American Food
Expert Could Not Preside at
National Congress.

London, Nov. 1.-THE heavy rains
which have broken the exceptional
drought which has prevailed this year
In England may have done more dam
age than good, according to reports
made by numerous landlords.
They assert that the long drought
has played the part of long sustain
ed earthquake with the heavy rains
acting as the final shake. So severe
has been the action on many build
ings that the repair bills will equal the
rental for the next two years.
The shrnkagn Of the clay and other
subsolls has been so great that In
some places whole streets of houses
have developed threatening cracks,
drainage systems have been disorgan-
lied, the building inspectors are hav-
ing the busiest time of their careers.
The damage to the London suburbs has
been especially severe. There has been
a Wholesale subsistence i'm a number of
Iierefordshire villages. and some of the
finest old homes in the clay districts
of the Midlands are threatened with
destruction. Architects and builders
attribute the disturbances solely to the
of the subsoil, which is much
worse on the clay soils which normal
ly hold the most water.

eRlroNs ARE IN ERROR.
No Increase in Number Of WarshiPs
on Great Lakes.

Washington, Nov. 11.-Naval officers
here are Of the opinion that the debate
i'm the British House of Commons re-
carding "the naval activities OF the
United states on Lake Michigan" was
based upon complete misunderstand-
ing Of what the Navy Department has
been doing In those waters.
There has been no increase OF the
number or character OF the American
warships on the Great Lakes recently
such as would come under the Rush
Ragot agreement. The presence Of the
secretary of the navy at the opening
of the Great Lakes training station
near Chicago IL is believed. gave rise
TO the erroneous impression that the
United States is erecting a fortified
naval station there.
As matter Of fact, IL is pointed out,
the establishment is simply a station
for the training OF young men in the
interior Of the country for service on
the high seas and Is scarcely more than
A recruiting station on large scale.
