BY ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS. The opinion is abroad that gas as an illumi- rant has been superseded by electricity; that it has a few years of amployment before it, for heating or power purposes, but in the course of a very short period the huge drum-like gar

· holders which have been familiar features la

the outskirts of most towns and villages will dis@gure the landscape no longer. Quite different views from these have been expressed from time to time`at annual meetings of the Shanghai Gas Company, and equally, no doubt, at, those of similar companies. Much "has been made on those accasions of the fact

that the Westminster City Council Lighting Committee have given the preference to gas over electricity in the matter of lighting White balt, though the cam was estimated at about the same figure for either illuminant. From other quarters also, it has been observed, there have lately been indications that with the aid of the Welsbach burner, and other improve ments such as the pneumatic switch which renders gas liko electricity independent of matches, ga may yet, hold its own. The Shanghai Company atfall events` continues to pay substantial dividends, and the Directnes with the courage of their convictions have lately embarked on a scheme of extension which has requirail enlargement and rebuilding of their works and offices on Thibet Road at the junc

tion of the Defence and Sonchow creeks,

During the feny years of its operations in Shanghai, the Gas Company has een com pelled, of course, to increase its plant and dxtend the bounds of its property on several occasions. At the end of 865, when the

Vladivostok-the only Russian port on the Pacific-is by no means a perieci naval port, as it is ice-bound for at least, four months of the year. That the safety of an Insular coun

ry like Japan depends much upon her naval supremacy needs no argument, but for the pre- sent she has nothing to fear in this direction. Turning to land forces, it is only Russia of which any apprehension may be left at all. Does she retain sufficient power to fight japan

gain? It is true that the more bellicose of the Russian generals and journals indulge in loud talk of war to a few years, but it i safe to ignore these irresponsible ulter nices, for they hardly reflect public opin ion in Russia. At present Russia, distracted hy internal strife,, has enough to do in putting her houre in order without seeking compli callone abroad; while the people, who are thirsting for liberty and enlightened gover ment, will have no time to lend their ears to the talk about retaliation against Japan. Such being the cass, there seems to be absolutely no need for Japan to immediately carry out "ny expansion of armaments.

"There is little doubt that sooner or later government will be inaugurated in Russia, and the country will emerge from the state of semi-darkness now prevailing. Then, if the Russian people determine to cross swords with Japan, it will be tive for the latter to adopt necessary measures of defence. This, however, is a very remote possibility, if, therefore, there is ne immediate enemy it is obviously extension of her armaments slowly, and avoid the wisest policy for Japan to carry out the.

THE BURDEN OF ARMAMENTS || Tsurugisan Muru, for Kuchionizu.

IN JAPAN.

-VIFWS OF COUNT ÖKUM 1.

The fiji. Skimpo publishes the following views of Count Okuma on the armament queti sion as affecting Tapan. Of the post-bellum fonncial questions, what is most exercising the minds of both Government and people is the question of naval and military armaments." says the Count., he question naturally occurs in the minds of many whether the Government is disposed 'in extend the army ‚and navy, and if so, to what extent it is prepar

ed to go.

"In all, civilised countries the expenditure opon armaments prayes by far the greatest burden on the people, and it is only natural that the country's finances should be much affected by the Government's decision on the subject. Japan is no exception to the general rule, that the extent of a' country's armaments should be regulated by those of a possible enemy, and if the expansion in really necessary for the defence of the country the people will sot grudge the sacrifice, however much they may wish for a lightening of their burden.

"Prior to the Japan China War, Japan's armaments were organised in view of China as a possible enemy, and after that war Japan's equipment was chiefly aimed at coping with the Russian strength in the Far East. Now, however, Russla's'naval 'power in the East has been annihilated, and Port Arthur, to which Russia devoted her energy for nearly ten years to render it impregnable, has fallen into the hands of Japan. Moreover, the Korean pente eula has now been pl ced under the protection of Japan,' thus enabling her to asrome undļa:
