the city is at this time more deeply
in debt than when the present adj

an entirely different light on the

'In London it is strictly against the
law for the driver of any public con
veyance to allow the curtains Of his
vehicle to be pulled down" said a man
who has visited the English metropolis.
"By day or night the windows of cabs,
hansoms, carriages, or what not, wheth-
er drawn by horses or propelled by
electric power, must be so open to pub
lie inspection as to allow u plain view
of those occupying the interior. A
closed rig wouldn't get block before
a London bobby would nab its driver
and hale him to a magistrates office,
where he would get no mercy. The
law is based on the theory that closed
vehicles lend themselves easily to the
commission of robbery or murder and
that they may also assist a criminal to
make his escape"

NAVAL WIRELESS.
IL Is Almost Impossible TO "Jam" q
Well Organized Service.

wei organized 0SFNiCc.
Many suppose that 1t is possible for
an enemy TO disrupt and suspend all
wireless communica ton at will by pro-
ducing very powerful waves Of irreg-
ular length-in other words. by inter
ference or tanning" According to
Commander f. G. L0ing of the Brit.
ish navy, such tactics are seldom sue
cessful. 1t is very hard, If not Inn
possible, to jam a well organized
wireless service, for there are many
ways, both technical and methodical,
to defeat such an intention. If the
enemy attempts interference he must
put his own wireless communication
completely out Of action for the time
being. with no certain prospect Of Sc
riously inconveniencing the communi-
cation OF his opponent
Commander Loring also believes that
the risk of having the signals Of the
feet intercepted by an enemy is very
slight. Cooperation between opera
tors, with full knowledge of each 9th
er's methods. is extremely important
when handling difficult code messages,
and the more skilled the organization
the more difficult 1t is for a strange
operator to take down with the neces-
sary accuracy the groups of a code
message. He cannot ask for the repe-
tition of doubtful groups, and he has
no intimate and daily familiarity with
the methods of the sender to assist
him in his task
And, after all, giving the enemy ev-
cry advantage. giving him perfect
record OF the signals, the key Of the
code to his hand and equal facility of
skill and language to translate it for
use-a most improbable combination,
it must be admitted-he has still fail
ed to prevent the all important infor-
nation from reaching it's destination"
