CONVICTED SPIES APPEAL.
TEN YEAR SENTENCES TO STÅND,"
The Court of Criminal Appeal, composed of Mr. Justice Avory, Mr. Justice Horridgo, and Mr. Justico Balter, heard the appeals against conviction and sentences of ten years penal servitude and two years' hard labour passed by the Lord Chief Justice at the Cen- tral Criminal Court on Wilfred Francis Remington Macartney and George Hansen for offences under the Official Secrets Act and for conspiracy. Both appellants were present.
The appeals were dismissed,

FEWER PASSENGERS.
RAILWAY LOSES 47,000,000
FARES IN ONE YEAR.
:
A decrease of 47,000,000 passen vers last year, as compared with 1925, was recorded by Mr. Wil- Ham Whitelaw, the Chairman, at the London and North Eastern Railway meeting..
The bulk of this loss he utiri- buted to the traffic on the roads.
During last year, the Chairman stated, the Company carried, in- eluding holders of season tickets, 47,000,000 fewer passengers than in 1925. The figures might seem incomprehensible, but a loss of seventeen passengers out of each train run on the system > more than accounted for the whole de-
crease.
How for the loss was due to | bad trade"and lack of money, and how far road compétition was re- sponsible, was difficult to deter mine, but he thought they might conclude that the bulk of the loss was due to the enormous increase in road vehicles of all sorts, public and-private.
It was untrue, the Chairman declared, that the railway com- pantes had any such silly Iden in thefr heads as that of obtaining a monopoly of road traffic. The companies had no intention of flooding the road with vehicles in competition with other people, but would be ready to cooperate with municipal bodies, individuals and companies, and would seek to con- nect villages with stations by- thefr own vehicles or by arrange- ment with other owners.

Criticism of the management of the company came from several shareholdera.
