Vulnerable minor losses which cannot
be estimated. The chief losers are
the owners of the Alum Chine, which
cost in the neighborhood of 1915, 900.
Upon the Maryland Steel
builders of the collier Jason, devolvess
the next greatest loss. While a thor
ough inquiry may result in finding
very serious defects in her construc-
ton, a superficial examination of the
collier Jason indicates a damage of
$1l, O00. To this amount can b.
added the expense of getting the col
Ter ready for her official test.
The cargo of the Alum thine has
not been entirely accounted for, but
from figures given out by the inter-

buses according to their carrying ca
pacity.
Sir John Benn the progressive lead
er on the London county council. said
there were now in the councils service
1400 tramcars. The number of pas
sengers carried by the cars last year
was 512,500,000. Presuming it had
been necessary to carry them all in
motor buses, the passengers would
have had to pay 100000 more for the
same mileage; the difference in the
fares of the cars and buses was one
third of penny per passenger in fa-
vor of the former.
Proceeding, Sir John Benn said
that London was the only city in the
country which could be said to give
exceptional opportunity for rival pas
senger services. The police were not
empowered to stop the issue of IL
censes for motor buses of which there
were over 5000 on the London streets
today, with the probability of an i'm
mense number to follow. He did not

other technicalities.
The first of the fliers is expected to
