GREAT BRITAIN AND

AUSTRIA,

Sir H. Rumbold's Article. The Vienna correspondent of the Stand ard wrote on the 30th October:-An ex- tract from Sir Horace Rumbold's article in the National Review, 'An English Tribute to the Emperor Francis Joseph,' has been. tulographed to the New Freie Presse, and is published here this afternoon. The article itself will certainly be read, with interest by everyong in this Monarchy, both for the writer's appreciation of the venerated Monarch, and for the opinion expressed,by the late Ambassador that the preservation of Austria-Hungary is a matter of the greatest importance for England as well as other countries. I am afraid, how- over, that Sir Horace Rumbold, in repre- · senting the share the Emperor and Austrian Government took in averting what was called a coalition against England, whilst slie was engaged in South Africa, or st least an intervention or the somblance of it, judges too much from what he observed himself, while he, perhaps, overlooks, or does not sufficiently consider, what happen- ed outside his personal cognisance. As it is highly desirable that people in England should know exactly what took place, I would venture to remind Sir Horace Rumbold of one or two incidents which have had a great bearing on the matter.

One fact to be mentioned is that the late Count Muravieff actually tried his unskilled hand in bringing about a coalition against England. He started with a hint to this effect in Spain. and following it up by a broad suggestion in France. For his failure Enginud need not thank either the Emperor Francis Joseph or the Kings of Saxony or Würtemberg. It was distinctly due to the French Ministry and to sober people in France outside the Cabinet ; aud so clear and decisive was the rebuff, that no other Power had an opportunity of ap- proaching the position planned by an inex- perienced Russian Minister.

With reference, however, to the article in the National Review, it is only necessary to point out what I tele- graphed during the night of January 3, 1900, regarding the recent conversation between the Czar and Sir C.

clear, it having been understood every- where that if any Power intervened it could only be Russia; and that, against her, or even without her, the thing was too risky to be as much as thought of.

The two facts I have cited establish the historical certainty that, in the first place, France declined to enter into Count

Muravicif's intrigue; that, läter op, the

Czar declined to listen to suggestions from any interested quarter; and that no attempt was ever made afterwards to stay Eng land's hand, either by a single Power or by a combination. Thus, no stup by the King of Saxony or by anyone else was any longer necessary.

I may, perhaps, be excused for- saying that the late ambassador somewhat misapprehends the feelings for England which exist in this country. The respect for the English is restricted in Austria, if not to the Monarch, at any rate to a very small portion of the population; and ---I should not like England ever to be in the accessity of having to count upon assistance from Austria-Hungary, which, I fear, she would not obtain.

Probably the best known is the Hennebique system, pat- ented in 1892, and extensively used by the inventor since 1895. The aim, of course, in all the systems is to increase the resistance of concrete to tension strains or to shears; and to obtain the desired result in par ticular works it is necessary to know some- thing of the inter-relation of the elastic pro- perties of the metal and of the concrete in which it is embedded.

GOOD HEALTH

implies freedom from physical pain and disorder.

It means

strength, energy, power; power to

think well, work well, eat well, sleep well. It means being "fit," fit for honie. duties, fit for business, fit for pleasure,

it for overything. It means money-money saved

and money earned. Indigestion destroys good health. It multiplies worries, breeds disease and fills the doctor's purse. Mother Seigel's Syrup provents indigestion and eures it. It curos in Nature's way, with Nature's remedies the healing juices of roots and herbs from field and forest. Its daily use is a guarantee of good digestion, which is the foundation of good health. Saya Mrs. C. BARNDON, 46, Lydia Street, Brunswick, Victoria, Feb. 27th, 1902; "For two years I suffered martyrdom from acute indigestion. I tried many different medicines, but got no relief until I took Mother Soigel's Syrup, three bottles of which com- pletely cured me I can now sleep well, my appetite is good, and I can perform my duties with ease."

Would the Director of Public Works give some explanation of the inequalities of The intermittent system with special re- ference to Queen's Garden and the higher levels of the Penk-why very many houses, which ought to get the full supply for the advertised period, get little or and even that little at a most insufficient pressure?

SIR.--What a pity that Investor,' who shews n glimmering of reason, did not con. fine his remarks to the merits of the ques tion at issue, instead of acting like the attorney with a weak case in vilifying his opponent. A man with a memory who can'attempt to quote from a speech made some 16 years ago must remember that the scheme of improvements now in progress at Kowloon Dock-new dock included-was devised some years ago, and previous to the present directors joining the Board-

Opening of the Inquiry.

A hollow victory for the Football Club Mr F. A. Hazeland and a jury opened was the result of this match yesterday an inquiry into the death of Wong Chin, afternoon, the score being 5 goals 1 perial- woman, Wong Chuen, & lad, and twoty goal and a try (31 points) to nil. The unidentified males, who were killed by the collapse of Nos. 10 and 12 Second Street, Messrs C. W. on the 2nd August. Richards, C. Q. Pintos, and J. H. Oxberry wore sworn on the jury.

Mr Bowley, Crown Solicitor, in opening the case, said there was a typhoon blowing at the time the houses gave way, the wind attaining a speed of forty-nine miles per hour. The houses were built forty years ago. They were originally two storey houses but, last year, the owner, Lum Yuni Ting, had been ordered by the Sanitary Board to add a yard, and at the same time Lum Yum Ting added a third storey. The plans were prepared by Messrs Denison and Ram, but there was no European supervision of the building work. There were eleven persons in the house at the time of the collapse.

sailors played a plucky game throughout and never gave in; but their great weak- ness lay in the fact that their outsides were not fast enough to cope with those of the

Club. Soon after the start, Graham walked over with a neat try, which Pearce easily converted. Then a breach of the rules by the Ocean's forwards enabled Graham, to drop a lovely goal from a penalty kick, Barnes afterwards romped over, and Pearce again converted. Good passing between Cooper, Grahani, Barnes and Jordan was the next distinguishing feature, and from: Homo scrambling play Cooper scored an un- converted try. The teams crossed over with the score reading 16 points to nil in favour of the Club.
