London Is Eliminating
Its Fogs, Says Scientist,
Sunshine Often Seen NoD

London, Eng. April 29.-The increas-
ing c1earness Of the atmosphere in Lon
don is noticed by professor +. J. Brodie.
Of the Royal MicroscopicaI society in a
book just published on the Incidence
Of Bright Sunshine over the United
kingdom during the Past 80 Years"
There has been great abatement of
the smoke evil. he says. owing to the
regulations affecting factories. to the
improvements in the construction of do
nestle fire places, and to the largely
increased use Of gas for cooking and
heating purposes. The air in London.
he shows. has i'm recent years become
much clearer and the duration of sun
shine, more particularly in the water
months has steadily increased
At all the stations in the British Isles
where regular observations are made
there is a steady tendency toward in
crease in the amount of bright sun
shine. The Increase i'm London is far
greater than at the two nearest subur-
ban stations, oxford, in the Thames
valley. and Hastings. on the coast The
number Of foggy days registered shows
a steady decrease

Socialists OF Norway
Demand That Government
Disarn To Keep Peace

Christiania. Norway. April 29.-Com-
plete disarmament for Norway is called
for in a bin which has been introduced
in parliament by the Socialist faction
Of that body. This measure asks the
government to frame and pass as soon
as possible a resolution or bill provid-
ing for the abandonment Of the whole
army and navy. 1t also asks that all
treaties between Norway and other
countries, which might possibly be q
hlndrance to complete disarmament. be
either altered or replaced by new
treaties and that treaties providing for
arbitration in all controversial ques-
tons be secured with all foreign ma
lions.
This bill is in accordance with the
program Of the Norwegian Socialist
party, which during the last election
advocated disarmament irrespective of
whether other nations would disarm or
not. Since the Socialists control only
one-thlrd of the assembly the bill now
penoing VIII not be passed this session,
but II they should get control of parlia-
ment at the next election, a bill Of this
nature undoubtedly would be passed
and become a law

Bribery Charged to 10
Members and Secretary
OF the japanese Diet

Toxic. Japan, April 29.-Eighteen
members OF the Diet and the chief sec
rotary Of the house of representatives
are on trial for giving and receiving
brides in connection with the passing
last year Of the law for increasing the
army by two divisions.
A noteworthy incident Of the trial
has been the refusal Of the judge to
summon as a witness Oura Qate Wis
COUNT who, as home minister at the
time, is alleged to have found the
money with which the members were
bribed to bolt from their party and vote
for the government.
The opposition is anxious to have
the eX-minister put on the witness
stand in the expectation that his reve-
lations will show that the money was
provided by the government The
Judge declined the request on the
ground that sufficient evidence had al
ready been obtained.
One Of the witnesses said that when
Oura summoned him to his office and
asked how much money would be re-
quired to carry the bill, he asked for
$4,000. The former chief secretary
Of the house. Hayashida, at the close of
the proceedings, burst into tears and
said:
Since I graduated have constantly
served the government During my Of
fetal career 1 have received hOnOrs
which I do not deserve. Now I have
committed a dishOnOrable act which has
deprived many persons of their public
honors. although I did IT under orders
from my superiOrs. / am quite ashamed
and ready to accept any punishment the
law demands"
The trial was adjourned for speeches
by the lawyers until May Is.

MetzenhOff, Famous
Russian Tenor, Tries
To Take His Own Life

Bucharest. Rumania, April 29-The
famous Russian tenor. Metzenhoff.
who arrived here some time ago and
has given several concerts under the
protectorate of queen Marie. has just
made a sensational attempt to end his
life. He was brought to a hospital in
a precarious condition with two bullets
in his head, but the surgeons who have
performed an operation, hope to save
him.
The singer is a captain in the Rus
sian reserve and took part in the
campaign i'm Galicia- Early last sum-
mer he was slightly wounded in one
of the battles near Lemberg. After
his discharge from the hospital he
came to Bucharest He vas received
with open arms by musical and aris-
tOcratic circles. The queen, who had
heard him at Petrograd and Vienna,
received him at court and attended
all Of the concerts given by him
Lately the police and the military
authorities became suspicious Of the
famous tenor. He spent large sums
OF money and moved almost eXclu-
sively among the officers Of the Ru-
manian army. After watching him
closely for several months, the au-
thorities became convinced that he was
conducting an extensive spy system
in the interest Of Russia. His arrest
was ordered, but when police officers
tried to enter his apartments, he fired
two bullets into his head.

r ONDON, Eng. April 2s-The war

Almost the entire London press is
hammering a government which is sup
