 Conversations with Englishmen, con- tinued the writer, show that the Eng fish themselves are dominated by a senee of conscious power.
 This impression grows" he adds, the more one talks with Englishmen. The hystericaI behavior of certain English newspapers does not seem to me to reflect the nations feelings in sry way. On the contrary, I have always noticed . totally calm and ob- iectfve attitude toward the whole bus mess. for eStravagant excitement is not a. part of the national character. 50, from my own experiences am inclined to consider these last peace speeches in the house of lords as a

ATMOSPHERE OF CONFIDENCE
 PREVALENT IN LONDON
Silent Demonstration of Quiet Strength
 and Established Power.

Amsterdam, Dec. 21.-The strong sense of power and of confidence that seems to be the very atmosphere of England" is commented upon by Dr. Hans Worst, a professedly neutral correspondent, in recounting his inn pressions on a recent visit to England to the Berliner Tageblatt- He bes4ns his article by telling of meeting Rus sian government official in London, who. after a rather Respondent review of the operations on the Russian front saind: At any rate, one feels quite at ease and 'heartened again after a few days in London"
 This statement interested Dr. Worst He decided to make a closer investiga- tion of the Russians remark, and found that he himself soon succumbed to the sense of Iondcn's might. In his own. words he came under the spell of London's silent demonstra- tion of solid wealth, quiet stren6th and established power"
 Speaking of life in London. Dr. Worst tells the people of Berlin that he found London has changed little dur ing the war beyond the darkening of it's streets Nowhere in the warning capitals has street traffic suffered SC little. In Berlin and Paris, motorbuses have disappeared. Put ip Lp1doH even those that were sekN ever to France in the beginning of the war have been replaced.

 RELATIONS IMPROVED
Indicated at a Banquet Given in

Sydney, Australia, Dec. 21.-Rela- tions between Australia and Japan ap- pear to have improved immeasurably since the European war began One of this was recorded at banquet siven in Sydney recently by the Japaneee consul general, s. Shi- rnizu. the Highest ranking Japanese in Australasia. to celebrate the corona tion of the emperor. Australia, all though protected to a great extent by rigid Jspanese exclusion laws, has all ways feared an influx of Japanese. On this point the Japanese consul general said, at the barquet:
 "On the racial question. you can be assured that our government will take care not to bother you What we want and what we expect from Aus traIia is the consolidation of that friendship which has sprung up be- tween our nations. Trade relations have increased enormously since the war broke out We can sell you things which you formerly got from the con- tinent of Europe and we will supply them cheaper. We will buy from you ! lots Of things that we need. An excel flent feeling has grown up betweeT Japan aud Australia, and we want tC

VOTE s2O, ,OOO MORE FOR HOUSING
Board of Directors of the Hopkins and Allen Arms Company Also Decide on Another New Building on Chestnut Street-27 Factories Helping to Get Out Tools and This Equipment All Expected by End of February, So That Belgian Rifles Can be Started Then.

The board of directors of the Hop kins & Allen Arms company held a meeting at the plant at 1 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, President J. A. MacGregor presiding, and a number of important things came up for discus sion. MT. Clark of Boston was elected a member of the board of directors.
 The directorate voted to erect a new building on Chestnut street in the space between the main building and the factory that was taken over from the Norwich Nickel and Brass com pany last summer. It is at this site that the city formerly had the sewer which has been relocated in Chestnut street. The new building will be 150 feet in length and 50 feet wide, one story in height, with reinforced con- crete floors and columns and brick walls. Naturally, it will be strictly fireproof, and it will be used as a firing range, where the accuracy and efficiency of the guns may be tested. The range itself will be 100 feet in length. The contract will be let next week, if possible.
 The special machinery is about all in, and President MacGregor said Tuesday night that there are about 50 draughtsmen at work in the designing room on drawings of the small tools that will be required in the contract work for the Belgian government that will be started as soon as the equip

 has left its effects to this day. The wind was of such terrific force that the
 Calgary could not make headway, be- ing shallow boat, and to add to the
 terror of the situation engine troubles
 developed and the ship became un-
 manageable.
 In the predicament there was no aI- ternative- but to come to. anchor and ride out the storm, so the Calgary | dropped anchor southwest of Nantuck- ct Shoals.

HENRY COTS TOOL HOUSE
 BURNED TO THE GROUND
Bell Alarm, First of the Month, Aroused Bremen Just 6efore q Tuesday Morning.

Fire which broke out Tuesday morn ing about S.45 o'clock in a small wood en shed used by Henry M. Colt of No. 40 Hedge avenue as a tool house, com pletely destroyed the structure, to- gether with the tools, the total loss being from $250 to $500, uninsured.
 Albert Beebe, son "of Mrs. Colt, was awakened at 3.45 o'clock by flying em- bers striking against the window of his room. He gave the alarm and Mir Colt quickly dressed and went out to fight the flames, which had gained great headway. Mrs. Colt sent in a telephone call to the Central sta tion and the auto chemical company made quick run. They had hardly left the Central station when an alarm from box 62, Hamilton avenue and Main street, was sent in calling out other companies.
 One line of hose was run from the hydrant in front of the Colt residence and the fire was quickly extinguished. The recall was sent in a few minutes after the alarm had rung.
 Because of the close proximity of the burning shed to the Colt residence anxiety was felt for the safety of the house, but the fremen kept the flames confined to the shed.
 MT. Colt, who is a contracting ma son, kept all his tools in the shed and carried no insurance on them.
