A CANAL ACROSS'PERSIA.

New York, Aug. 20.

A special to the Sun from London says: As a sab-off to the English projects in reguid to making the rivers Euphrates and Tigrin navigablo, Herr Waschter of Berlin han a project for a canal 450 miles in length to connect the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf. According to his plan the canal would begin at Enzeli and take a south- westerly direction to Bagdad by turning to account the Kyril Uzon and Diyalla, the largest tributaries of the Tigris.

As the Kyril Uzen dries somewhat evory summer, Herr Waechter wants a natural reservoir for foeding the river.

He sucogeded in anding a lake as large at the Swiss lakes, and the whole project depends upon the position of this mountain

lake. If it lies higher then the watershed between the Kyril Uzən and the Diyalla then its waters can be carried to the Kyril Uren during the dry seasoni

In referring to this project, German newspapers point out that its successful completion will tighten the tension between Russia and England Persia. Such a cand and the proposed traps Asiatic railroad. projected by the English from Smyrna across Asia Minor and Persia vis Kandahar to Quetta, in North-western India, and thence through English possessions and China to Hongkong, will cut directly dorosa- each other, and the Muscovite power could only clinch its control of the canal by the possession of Bunder Abbas, on the nor thern shore, and near the mouth of the Persian Sea. Great Britain could not hear- of this, for it would mean the cutting in two of any possible future land communica tion between the Mediterranean and her Indian empire. It would also jeopardien her water communication via Suoz. Rather than see this England would make Bunder Abbas another-Gibraltar.

Within that section of the system every upright support carrying the tracks will be spliced at the bottom. Sections of the road are now on blocks to admit of this splicing process.

Without interrupting traffic, likewise, the Fortieth Street curves of the road have been changed to admit of much higher speed in the extended system. A gravity power-saving system is being established from Thirty-ninth Street northwards, and numerous other important changes made for the greater extension and improvement

An Illogical Agitation,

JOHANNESBURG, Sept. 8.-With a view to removing any misapprobonsions which may have arisen owing to the process of condensing the speeches in the Chinese labour dobate, I may point out (says tho correspondent of the Standard) that the Attorney-General, in his speech, whilst arguing that the responsibility for checking the deportions of Chinese must primarily devolve on the employers, repudiated any desire to put the blame on the wining companies, who, he said, were bampered by the fallacious 'elavory' ory from anti- cipating crime by imposing!severe restric- tiona.

THE TELEPHONE.

The telephone system about which I wrote you some months ago is now in full working order. In-such a small place as Kulangsu, it seemed a quite unnecessary luxury, to have, for we are all so near other that a few minutes will bring us to almos any other house in the settlement. The tendency of the East however, is to minimise exertion to the lowest point possi ble. People out here appear to think that walking is a most dangerous accomplish- ment, and so coolies and chairs are in constant requisition in this little doll of an island.

The practice shooting this year was much better than last year, when the total score was only 919, which was equalled by Singa- pore. Under the Bisley rules, in accordance with which this competition is governed, Singapore won the match, although the total was the same as that of Hong kong. Of the Hongkong team Corporal McEwen, R.E., was top-scorer with 98, Mr A. Watson was second with 96 and Lieut. (now Captain) G. P. Lammert, H.K.V.O., was third with 95.
