LONDON, December 10-''Ths Cate
way OF India" has been conyerted from
a mere syrnbolical expression into soIid
fact by the imposing arch Just inaug-
urated at Bombay, by viceroy Lord
Reading.
The arch, or gateway, stands on the
Apollo Bandar landing stage and marks
approximately the spot where King
George and Queen Mary landed on their
state visit to India, December Q, 1911,
and II owes its inception to wish ex-
pressed by the British monarch that
there should be a real gateway Of In
dia'' worthy OF the traditions Of the
East. somewhere about that spot.
The gateway, Is constructed of local
stone and is based on the traditional
architecture Of western India. It Is an
oblong structure facing Bombay's pic
turesque harbor, and has a domsd cen
trail hall with two great gateways
fianked by smaller halls. The building
can accommodate some 500 people and
Is regarded as large enough for all cere
monies connected with royal arrivals
and departures. This open space sur
rounding 1t allows plenty OF room for
pageantry. and permits a clear view
from all directions OF one of the mos
striking edifices constructed in this
part Of India for many years.
The architect is G. Wilmot, a Fellow
of the Institute Of British Architects.
The original scheme provided for the
construction of wide ceremonial road
way. hanked by gardens. running from
the gateway into Bombay City, but lack
Of funds has prevented the adoption OF
this well designed proposal, and the
roadway probably will never be built.

Hiram Bingham, Republican, gov
ernor-elect Of Connecticut and at
present lieutenant governor of the
State, defeated Hamilton Holt, Demo .
crat. by 10000 votes for the vacant
seat in the Senate caused by the
death of Senator Brandegee. Admin
istration leaders in Congress are
pleased over the result of the election.
The German cabinet and Chancellor
Marx resigned last week, and the
German President, Ebert, accepted
the designations. This was the natural
result of the election two weeks ago,
following which 1t is customary to
appoint a new cabinet, which will be
done when the Reichstag convenes
January 5.
Those who are shouting for a larger
Navy to keep pace with the armament
construction of other nations plead to
deaf ears, so far as the President
and administration leaders in Con-
gress are concerned. The President

| week. when he made 1t plain at a
conference with newspaper men at
| tho White House that, while the
American Army and Navy must be
adequate for national defense, there
! is no intention on this country's part
to enter competitive armament race
with other nations. At the same time,
| congressman seem generally opposed
to a formal investigation of the
American Navy, taking the view there
| Is no necessity for 1t.

Egypt. The governments policy in
this matter was severely criticised by

The Senate will vote on the Presi-
dents veto Of the postal pay bill
January 6. The decision followed an
attempt by those in favor OF over
riding the Presidents veto to force a
vote on the issue last week, The. at
tempt was skillfully blocked by ad-
ministration forces, who, with the
President, are contending that there
should be no measure passed by Con-
gress for increasing postal salaries
until a way Is found to provide the
necessary revenue. A bill has been In
troduced In the Senate embodying the
recommendations of Postmaster Cen
