AMATEUR MADE EXPERT
How inexperienced Student Crippled
Railroad Serving Millions Of
People

New York-Refusal of a rail-
way commission to sanction the
proposed issue of several mil
lions of bonds for a road whose
transportation r equir e m n s
stood much in need of the funds,
was supported by the official
statement that the commissions
expert had advised against it and
therefore it was refused. The
railway authorities were interes-
ted enough to look into the re-
cord of the expert, on whose
recommendation the issue was
turned down. He proved to be
a student who had studied trans
portation at a Western univer-
sity and served six months In an
under. clerkship of a railway
commission. he 1t was who as
bond and stock expert of the
commission determined the fl

BIG MILITARY REVOLT
PLANNED IN FRANCE
Socialists Organize Rising in
Army, Accompanied by
Wholesale Desertions.
IBy Gable to The Tribune. ]

Paris, July 3. -According 10 news
reaching here from all parts OF France
a general military revolt, accompanied
by wholesale assertions, has been or
ganized by the Socialists, especially
those Of the Labor party, in protest
against the three years law. II is said
that the revolt will break out as soor
as the law finally passes into effect.
The recent incidents at Toul. Belfort
and Rodez. according TO official in
formation, were only preludes to
general outbreak, and this is why the
government is now acting so rigor-
ouslv against the militarists.
With the Central Labor Council dis
solved and most of the officials OF the
Confederation in prison awaiting trial,
Il is hoped that the movement against
the safety OF the republic has been
checked There is general fear, how
ever that the conspiracy Is so widely
ramihed that more dangerous mutinies
will have to be quelled even should the
plan for a simultaneous rising by the
dissatisfied Socialists in the army fail
through the incarceration Of their po-
l!tical leaders.

"ANNUAL PENANCE" FOR

TO night Americans in London are to

of independence Day and. as usual.

many Englishmen of distinction. The
idea Of turning the Fourth Of July into
an Anglo American festival sprang
originally, We believe, from the fertile
brain of the late w. T. Stead. II has
now become one Of the established
functions of British life and we, who
rarely commemorate the triumphs OF
our history, make an annual point OF
Joining with Americans in celebrating
our greatest disaster.

year in London OF Englishmen eulogiz-
ing Washingtons memory and honor
ing independence Day is wellnigh UNI
imaginable anywhere else, and proba-
blv there are few who stop 10 think
what il signifies when Englishmen
make feast day or July the Fourtn
and publicly venerate the name of
Washington.
1T means, in the first instance. that
they are celebrating the most tragic
blunder in British history, and in the
second. that they are paying tribute to
the memory OF the man who brought
Great Britain to the lowest depth of
humiliation and impotence. 1t has
come to be a sort of annual penance.
Year after year this old and naughty
nation dons the white sheet and
through the mouths OF some OF Its
most eminent sons expresses open con-
triton for its share in the American
Revolution. II our mistake was great.

MAKES NO NEW ARGUMENTS
Indications That the President
and His Advisers Find It
Hard to Agree on Terms
of U. S. Reply.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington. July 3.-Jspan's supple
mentary note to the rejoinder in the Cali
fornia-Japanese negotiations was sub
mitted to the Secretary OF State by Am
bassador Chinda this afternoon.
There is nothing new in the way Of
arguments in the note its purpose being
simply to explain and amplify the re-
joinder and set forth more AT length the
views OF the Foreign Office as to the
theory OF states rights" and its bearing
on the negotiations. The general tenor OF
the note was cabled to the japanese Emu
bassy from Toxic, and its details were
completed here.
No change in the situation will result
from the supplementary note, and II Is
not believed that this governments re-
Spouse will be affected by the additional
representations. The note submitted to-
day makes more certain than ever that
Japan regards the dispute as question
Of Interpretation Of the commercial treaty
OF 1911, an issue which Japan may seek
to have arbitrated at The Hague should
the problem fail to yield to ordinary
diplomatic negotiations.
The next move in the negotiations will
be made by the United States. There ara
strong evidences Of differences OF opinion
between the President and his advisers as
to the response to be made by this gov
eminent, because OF the fact that Secre-
tary Bryan is having a hard time in pre-
pairing a note TO meet the ideas Of Mr..
Wilson. Ii is also limited that John Bas-
sett Moore, counsellor for the Department
Of State. has opinions not altogether In
harmony with those Of President Wilson
and Secretary Bryan, who are strict ad-
herents to the theory that state has
the right TO enact any legislation II
chooses not contrary to the Constitution.
Well Informed persons believe that the
RESPONSE OF the United States will be
made next week. probably Friday.

BATTLE IN ENGLISH EYES
1.-The Times" Comments on Re-
union at Gettysburg.
IBy Gable TO The Tribune.


London. July 3.-"Gettysburg' is the
title Of the second editorial in The
Times to-day 1t says:
The war was a war Of principle as
well as passion, and the people VINO
fought in it were of the most stubborn
British stock. The Federals and Con-
federates honestly believed that they
upheld the right, and in that faith they
were ready to do and suffer all for their
cause.
admiral Mahan was right beyond
doubt when he affirmed in recent let
ter to us that the United States did not
wage the war Of secession for the abo-
lition of slavery. II waged it to uphold
the Union as the Confederates waged II
TO defend what they held to be their
elementary rights under the Constltu-
ton. Men like Lee and StoneWall
Jackson were as little likely to engage
in civil war for selfish or unworthy
ends as was Lincoln himself The
abolition movement did, indeed. supply
the North with useful driving power,
but the Southerners gave their lives for
objects much more worthy than the de-
fence OF slavery.
Up to the very end of the war the
slaughter did in very truth stagger hu-
mainly. 1t showed the price men OF
British blood will pay when they have
10 pay it for the assertion OF their
rights. but it left no abiding malice be-
hind Both sides now look back upon
that cruel trial with common pride. In
the words. perhaps, Of the noblest hero
of that war so rich in heroes, as ne lay

river and rest under the shade.
