SAY Meeting Held in London to Protest Against New Mountain Railroad-Invasion of Peaks, (Special Cable to the Sunday News.) LONDON, Nov. Swiss acenery be destroyed? An important meeting of the English branch of the league for the preservation of Swiss scenery was held at the Society of Arts on Wednesday to discuss a new mountain railway. Starting from Rrl-1 gue, no far from the entrance of the Simplon tunnel, the idea Is to construct a narrow-gauge electric ratlway up to and beyond the Belaip to a point on the edge of the great Oletsch glacter, Zenbachen.

at an altitude of 77 W) feet. From Zenbachen the line is to be carried up to the Jungfraujoch, there to connect with the Jungfrau railway proper, which starts from the Little Schel-degg on the opposite face of the mountains. From Zenbadien, however, up to the Jungfraujoch the scheme is of an entirely novel character, a schlltien-bahn or sledge railwav crossing th broad glacier in its midstream and touching those scenes so well known to mountaineers the beautiful Marjelen-see and the Concordlaplatr before striking up directly over Ice and snow to the Jungfraujoch. Members of the league for the protection of Swiss scenery, mountaineers and guide! are said to be horrified at the scheme. The Jungfrau Railway plunges Into a tunnel, which will be continued right up to the summit of the mountain directly It enters the region of Ice and snow; therefore that line at least runs no risk of disfiguring, although, of course, it cannot fail to have the effect of vulgarizing the once inaccessible peak.

(Special Cable to the Sunday News.) NANTES, Nov. 16.

The anniversary of an experiment that has brought added prosperity to forae Mrt) farmers and great numbers of work people was celebrated here yesterday. Last November an English-company founded a butter factory at Nantes, and eooa after took another factory and creamery at Isse. These two factories now sending out between 80 and 100 tons of butter a week, much of it taking top price in the London market. Feasants who own half an acre of land now keep their cows, and, thanks to the excellence of tho new arrangements for cold storage, they and the farmers gel a high price for their butter the whole year round. The number of cows in the neighborhood increases, and a large amount of agricultural prosperity in assured Boleiy through fccientlflc grading, blending and marketing of produce.

Some interesting experiments are also in process for turning the solid of the skimmed milk to commercial use. They have already proved of alue for papcr-g lazing, for instance, and buttons. At tho celebration of the anniversary here yesterday, and today at Use, letters of congratulation were read from John Burns, Lord Braasey and other representatives of English interests as well aa from the French min-irer of agriculture. The factory at Isse is remarkable as one of the first and most nrnrf Inn nf thd direct results of the entente cordiale, and nothing was more striking in a striking ceremony than the popular enthus- iftsm with which the British national anthem i was received. The own of Nantes, which now takes half a million tons of British coal yearly for Its factories, will play an important part in the approaching Anglo-French Exhibition.

Tho dairy exhibit ahould be of close concern to all Britieh agriculturists. Inspection of the factory revealed tho most conclusive proof yet brought forward of the sheer commercial value to the farmer of co-operative dairy-methods, associated with scientific refriger ation and proper grading and blending. Aa Kiifri tn Admiral Sir Robert Harris. chairman of the British directors, such an example of the effective association oi renca and English talent in science and business has not been seen for years.

The extermination of the glossina is Impossible, but the same end may be reached by destroying the crocodiles cr by the removal of the bushes and undergrowth wh4re the animals lurk.

Prof. Koch made attempts to poison crocodiles with prepared meat, but had great difficulty in preventing the natives from seizing and eating It. The principal outcome of Prof. Koch's investigations is that there is a possibility now of making a certain diagnosis of sleeping-sickness and of adopting methods to combat it. Subcutaneous injections of arsenic have proved efficacious, but the chief means of fighting the disease lie in constant medical attendance and In preventing patients from going into hitherto uninfected districts.

They dwelt In a straw hut similar to those occupied by the natives, and saw only three Europeans throughout their stay, two of them being Viennese doctors and the third a German government official. Their only means of communication witii the world was a primeval native boat fashioned out of a tree trunk, which conveyed them to the mainland.

Haldane, the Secretary of Stato. for War, apparently has climbed down with regard to the alleged "ring" among the horseshoe contractors in this country. At any rate, English firms are to have a portion, lf not the whole, of the contract1 for horseshoes for the army, for which tenders were Invited a few weeks igo. The contract is for the supply of panrs of shoes, and an official of the British and Colonial Horseshoe and Machine Company, Limited, says that his firm has been allotted a part of contract. Mr-Haldane gave the original contract to an American Company on the ground that there was a "ring" among the English firms to keep the prices up.

It Is, therefore, curious that he should now accept the tender of one of the firms he alleged to be in this so-called "ring" a few weeks ago.
