1000 feet. Of insect pests, the land leeches
were very troublesome. The feet of the po-
lice and carriers were often red with blood
from their bites. We tried painting their feet
with sulphur ointment, bat it proved quite
useless. Scrub Itch was very bad, except in
the valley OF the upper Klkor. The scrub
itch is caused by II minute red insect that
buries itself under the skin. Mosquitoes
did not trouble us while on the highlands,
but both they and sand-fies were very trou-
blesome on the Kikor river.
The 'leaf' or "stick" insects were fairly
plentiful, and in some instances their resem-
blance to the plant life in their immediate
environments was wonderfully accurate. One
insect resembled q stick covered with green
moss the green colourIn9 appeared SO eX-
actly like moss, that n member OF our party
refused to believe it was not actual moss

with certainty.
Coal AS The Baser Fuel.
What the coal trade both masters and
men-have now to face is that there has
grown up during the past five weeks a
determination on the part of the heads of
many important concerns that they will not,
if they can avoid it, be placed in the de-
pendent and humiliating position of having
to shut down their works for lack Of fuel.
This responsible and wealthy class will go
to all reasonable lengths to attain their OBJ
ject. Here is oils first great opportunity.
Also many otherwise well-informed men
have for the first time learned of the great
merits of petroleum as a fuel or power-raiser.
Here is oil's second great opportunity.
Coll will never in our time be entirely
superseded in the United Kingdom. 1t is
the fuel with which Nature has provided Us,
as wood is among the forests of Siberia and
oil is on the plains of Pennsylvania. But,
provided the supply of oil can be kept up
coal in the form Of q bulky and dirty fuel
will be relegate more aud moro to the low
er and coarsar uses of indu stry, aud oil VIII
take its place i'll the higher aud more rein
ell. Whether in other f0rm3--for Instance,
as gas-coal will ever regain It's premier
position is a matter for speculation. The
coal strike is remark tble for the revolution
it has already pro luced in mems minds on
the subject Of fuel; its far-reAching conse-
quences will be more rem lrkable SILL Ibid,

THE SUGAR SITUATION IN WASH
INGTON.

The Finance Committee of the United
States Senate having before it U~nderwood's
House bill for free sugar, has been giving
the matter much attention this week and at
this writing the Interested parties are still
pleading the cause Of domestic sugar before
that great committee, which is now essenti-
ally the arbiter in the case. The FIRST three
days of The week were devoted to the argu-
ments of the Louisiana planters, with Thurs
day allotted to the Porto Ricans and we pre-
sumo that ample time will be given to our
domestic beet sugar producers and to the
Hawaiians, who are reported to have a dele
CATION Ell route to Washington. There is n
growing confidence expressed that nothing
whatever will be done with the sugar duties
at this session of Congress. Being a presid-
entlal election year., our congressman will be
anxious to get away from Washington and
to join in the political conflict which will be
going on all over the ountry.-Lo~tsjo~0

WARNED THE TITANIC THREE
HOURS BEFORE.

Capt. Clark, commanding the steam ship
Mesaba Of the Atlantc Transport Line,
which reached this port from l. ,nlon yes
terday, said he warned the Titanic Of the
danger of ice less than three hours before
the White Star ship met her fatal mishap,
and that he received a reply thanking him
for the message.
The ether was penetrated by the wireless
waves of the Mesabl's apparatus and carried
through space the following warning to the
Titanic:
north longitude 40 to 5000 west; much
heavy packed ice and great number of bergs.
Weather clear.
Almost instantly came back the following
from the Titanic, whose call Was"M. e..

Thanks.
The Titanic was estimltel by Capt. Clark
to be ut the time about ninety miles astern
Of the Mesaba, an |, presumably IN the same
track and going much faster. Explanation

o. S." call of tie Titanic, when she hit the
iceberg that destroyed her is mad by Stan
ley H. AdaMes, wireless op 1rator of the Me-
saba, who said to-day that he had his instru-
ments tuned for a much greater radius
than ninety miles after warning the Titanic,
and the waves passed by without register
ing on his receiver.
Alames is about IS years oil, but is held
to b. a competent operator, ana as-bee
two years in the business.
Ga Sunday morning at 6 O'Clock the Me-
saba ran into what Capt. Clark says was the
largest ii ,ld Of ic9 he ever encountered. The
field was seventy to II noty miles wide AM
dotted with Is to 100 enormous bergs. lac
Meslba was headed sonth to escape the
peril, and ran in that direction 12O miles out
of her course to escape the ice field.
o. Sunday night the operator aboatd the
Mesaba heard the Titanic talking with Cape
Race, an later sent the lost ship the me-
sage of warning qlpted. Again on Monday

CAPTAIN SCOTS MESSAGES.

The silence which has brooded over Cap
tain SCOTS expedition for so many months
has been broken III last. The report of his
progress leaves him with the geal OF his
efforts still unattnined, but with every pros
pect Of It's II tainmtnt On january 3, with
a party of four men, he was $50 miles from
the Pole, ON the vast icy plateau which
Sir ernest Silucklet0n discovered. Captain
Administers dash has rendered it certain
that no lu lher difficulties remained to be
ovorcunlt; the Journey southwark, when once
the Polar mountains have been passed and
the plateau gained, is steady march over a
gently shelving s~.nface, which dips ever to-
wards the Poe. Ii all went well, Captain
Scott should have reached the {ole ABOUT
one month later than Captain Amundsen
and already have returned with the little
tent which the No.wegians left rs a token Of
their triumph.
We may regret that to Captain Scott has
NOT iallen the honour of beng the first to
gain the Pole, though his eallier expedition
opened the way to il. But, us Sir Clements
Markham reminds us, the idea of a race for
The Pole never entered his head. It was

plan of scientific research. Yet, but for the
tloub. e which he experienced with his ponies
it is possible that he mi 4ht have preceded
Captain Amundsen ut the Pole or met him
there ia n thrilling r"ncontyo. No admira-
ZION can be too great for tue courage and
J determination which have led Captain Scott
to spend another year in the Antarctic realms

GOOD THING FOR OIL.
One Result OF the Coal Strike.

BY the Editor of the "Petroleum World.
The coal strike has proved u splendid
thing for the petroleum business. Speaking
from % purely selfish standpoint, an oil man
might wish it 10 be continued did not CON
siderations of patriotism aud humanity prevail.
Before showing what the coal strike has
done for Oh, and summing up the position as
it sta to day, u few sentences may make
clear what n powerful rival oil is to Goa.
Oil eau be used for heat and power IN three
chief ways. Two of them are old an ole
Hhe third in the list below is new. These
methods are:

C& I'H'AI oN'Si'
To sum up, the strike has done Il vast
amount of injury to the coal industry ana Il
vast amount of good to petroleum. Part of
this is already apparent, but part hts vi to
appear. Coal will never quite regain its oil
position; bat 1t will never ia The United
Kingdom be entirely baatel out Of tha field
by oil. The more oil used and the less coal,
the smaller the demand wall be for Goa;
hence, cotl VIII tend to become cheaper aud
thus keep its place for some purposes. Bat
here is the new factor: for the first time ia
our history cod will be paced on a comp
titive basis and have to fight on It's merits
and It's price alone. AS coal becomes cleap-
or, so the profits from it wll decrease, and
miners wages should show il corresponding
decline.

that the struggle for q minimum wage
should be the very instrument by which
