EXTENSIVE RAILWAY SCHEME
It Is Planned to Gross Congo and Open
I'm Central Africa.

London. April 29.-The next few years VIII
probably witness great developments IN
Central Africa. where British, Belgian ana
Portuguese authorities are planning the
construction of two great loop lines TO the
Cape-to-Cairo system. The proposed new
railways will extend over length OF about
twenty-five hundred miles and will open
up the whole of the back Congo country
Indeed. the effect Of part of the scheme Is
practically to provide an alternative route
for the cape cairo lire over the country
between the Soudan and Rhodesia, 50 thaJ
the railway would run through the Belgian
Congo as well as through German East
Africa
Sir Charles Metcalfe, who has just -
turned from a visit 10 South Africa in con
nection with railway extension in Rho
desia. explained that by the terms OF the
recently concluded agreement the Belgians
had agreed to connect their line from the
Katanga with the Portuguese line from
Benguela G.obito Bay. One-fourth Of this
line Zone thousand miles long was com
pleted, and the remainder might be finished
in a year and half, If necessary. With
its completion the journey from Rhodesia
to England would be shortened by from one
10 TWO weeks
This line. as Sir Charles points out is
one Of the big branches Of the Cape-to-
Cairo system. The Belgians are further
proposing 10 build an extension from the
Katanga line north 10 Kakama. from which
point the Congo is nayigable for nearly
nine hundred miles. 4 further line Of $50
miles from Stanleyville 10 Lake Albert Ed
ward. which has already been surveyed,
would complete the communication with
the Cape-to-Cairo system.

Lord Spencer's health is improving III

now no expectation that substitute Tor

before the coronation. He has been the
victim Of overwork in connection with
the numerous functions Of festive year
The unmanageable mass of detail in his
office and in that of the Earl Marshal
wears out everybody excepting the King
who is interested and entertained by the
experiences of new reign.
Lord O'Hagan has been mentioned as
an emergency Lord Chamberlain. but the
Prime Minister would find il easier TO
FIJI any other vacancy.
The court ball during the German En-
peror's visit alone involves the revision
of a list Of two thousand invitations.

HALT IN CAMBRIA TRIAL
Neither Prosecution Nor Defence
Appears to Make Progress.

Viterbo Italy. May G.-Two of the most
interesting of the alleged CamOrrists
charged with the murder of Gennaro
Cuocolo and his wife confronted Cen
marc Abbatemaggio to-day. They were
Luigi Arena and Giro Nitozzi. At the
close Of the accusations and denials It
appeared to the auditors that no prog
cutiOn or the defence.
Arena. according to the theory of the
state based on the revelations of Abb
batemaggio, had been sent 10 prison
after his betrayal by Cuocolo, who was
offended because Arena refused 10 share
with him the profits Of a robbery.
Arena wrote TO his fellow Camorrists
setting forth his grievance and demand
ing Cuocoo's death CucOlo was al
ready under suspicion of combining his
activities as a Camorrist with those Of
a police spy. He had also incurred the
jealousy Of Enrico Afano. the alleged
head of the criminal society, and it was
decided to do ava. with him. The
carabineers say they have possession of
the letter which Arena wrote, and that
they found it in the effects Of the pris-
Oners
All of this was vehemently denied to-
day by Arena. who denounced the in
former as manufacturer of evidence
and the paid tool Of the carabineers in
violent language. NtoZzi. the priest.
who is known as the guardian angel
of the Camorra," secured the release of
Alfano and others after their first ar
rest by representing to the examining
magistrate that he had learned Of the
innocence of the prisoners through the
confession Of others.
Abbatemaggio testified that he ha
heard Nitozzi and Alfano discussing the
Cuocolo murders at 1870 o'clock on
the morning after the assassinations.
Vitozzi replied that he could prove that
on the day and at the hour mentioned nc
was at the cemetery Of Poggioroalo, OF
which he was chaplain.
