"Thc situation Is extreme ly critical Russia maintains a profound silence. Falling some conciliatory action On thc part of Russia, of whlclr there Is now no appearance whatever, Japan will certainly adopt with a few days active measures lo secure her vital interests. Af ter this, war will become very difficult to avert." The, Dally Telegraph's Toklo enrre- spondeut announces that the British cruiser SIrlcus has been ordered to Chemulpo as a precaution against dis turbances In Seoul, but that thc warship will not land forcc-K unless' requested to do so by the British Consul for thc pur pose of protecting thc legation.

HVC, when LI Hung Chang was at St. Petersburg arranging for a Manchurlun rallv.uy convention.

The "blowing" of a fuse In an electric street car. which fills tho average pas senger with alarm, simply Indicates that a safety device bus proved reliable and thai a danger of Injury to thc motor has been averted by It. Thc current which will flow through a motor- when It Ih standing j-tlll Is In almost all Gases far in excess of that which tho motor Is desig nated to carry: nnd indned in a well de signed motT a current dangerous for the motor svl'd Lo reached before tho motor has been staficd. The effect of this "heavy current on thc motor. If allowed to uon tlnue. Is to heat thc windings to a dan gerous degree and destroy the Insulation, possibly setting it on fire; and it is to prevent this occurrence, whether due to careless handling of the car or to unex pected causes, that tho fuses are used. A fuse Is simply a short piece of wire of Huch a size that It will be melted by a cur rent which, If allowed to How through the motor tor any time, will damage It. Thc melting of the fuse opens the circuit and cuts ofT the current from tho motor. To protect thc car thc fuse Is pjaced In a fireproof box.
