I would not have written anything more on the inject had Mr. Nielsen, in his amendet aldīément, not erred in his method of mlculating in exactly the same manner as he did when diren. ing the shareholders, which method ho aduits in his letter was wrong. It ho is going to take of other 5 per cent of the entire door spaco for stairs, ebafts, eləraları, pillars, and tally tables, he carunt, to be correct, bu allowed to take it off the result of the. Second stap in the calculation: When be in calculating cubic measurement, ja dealing with the entien floor space he must include everything coming autor that form in one, fastar of the statement or equation, To take off 3 per cent for passages, and from the rodajuder 20 per cout for loss in stowage, and thau anddenly take from the result & por cent of the whole superficial area of the unit of subje measurement, is not the way to work monaura- tion,

Now 20 'per cent of 6ò per cent, for lons in stowage, equals 13 per cont.

In this manner the Kaiser replies to criticisms on his character, his activity, and his methods of government, in a remarkable interview which he had with the Bavarian post, Dr. Ludwig Ganghofer, at
at Munich last month.
The interview,which took place in the Winter Garden attera gala performance at the Court Theatre, lasted Isu bur and a half, during which time the Kaiser gare his opinions on mony interesting subjects the most important, perbaps, being his opinion of bizaself.
I am, above all, an optimist," he said. "I shall remain on optimist to the end of my days. I believe in my missloo, and I desky to make progress.
Like every other man in an exposed position, with a mission to fulfil, I am misunderstood, and my actions are misinterpreted."
His Majesty then quoted a sentence from one of Dr. Ganghofer's books, to the effect that no ene should mistrust another without reason, for both
with parties were thereby wronged.
