LQNDON. Ap`rlI"p_.-In two long, carefully-writteni = volumes Lord Cro- mer tells the ' story of "Modern Egypt." Ile begins in 1876, when WHS born _ on the banks of the Nile. Pointed Commissioner of the Public- Dellt. I-Ie.liulshes`with tlie record Dil the Anglo-French sgreem nt of 1904. During most ‘ 'of' _‘the ‘-intervening

The bare recital of events is a. euth- cient testimony to Lord Cromer’s own great career, and the story more than justifies the quotation printed at the head '01 this article

Though it was inevitable that in

writing of modern Egypt Lord Cro- mer should be at times autobia- graphical, he is always modest, and in the following pathetic passage he cites the causes of his success:-

“I owe the success, in so lar as

public matters are concerned, to the co-operation of the body of high-

BOSTON, April 2-Another cut in

the price of illuminating oil deliver- ed to consumers from oil-tank wagons was made by the New England Oil Company yesterday, and was im-| mediately met by the Standard Oil' Company today. The reduction is a cent on a gallon which will amount- to a loss of revenue of about a mii- llon dollars a year ln the Boston dis- trict. The price two months ago was. nine cents a gallon, but war was ini-| tiated by the New England Oil Colm-| puny. and a cut to eight cents ro- sulted. This second cut brings the price to seven cents.

'The reduction allects only the Bos-

ton district, which is practically within ri radius of twenty miles of the State House, and the competi- tion ls only between the New Eng- land Company and thc Standard.The New England Oil Company is under- stood to be backed by the Gulf Oil' Company, which is a combination of the independent refiners practically controlling the output of crude oil in

wilutcrer reduction is made in future

sanoison Biilish March 5 Ships Must Hereafter

Speak English

LONDON, April 2‘~The British

Government issued a notice recently that foreign seamen should not be engaged on British ships in European waters, unless they have enough knowledge of English to understand orders given in that language. It is stated that it is no uncommon thing to finds shlp’s crew composed of eight for nine nationalities, with absolutely no language in common, and perhaps a boatswalu who only understands English an an “inter- preter_"

The return relating to British sea-

men 'employed in the British mer- cantile marine shows 30 English and Irish per 10,000, while Scotland sup- plies 56 and Wales 44 per 10,000.

The proportion of Lascsrs and for-

eigners increases, while the British decrease. In the last iifteen‘years, 1891-1£T06', there was an increase of 17,108 Lascars, (East India. sailors) and 11,022 foreigners, and of British only 510. The recent order as to understanding the English language in European waters, it is supposed will cause a decline in Lascars and foreigners.
