London, Dec. 27, 9:50 p. m.—One of the thickest fogs of recent years en- veloped London today, disorganizing traffic and causing great inconven- ience. Owing to the restrictions with regard to the lighting of the city, the sombre pall at nightfall brought sur- face traffic to a complete standstill. The omnibuses stopped running, taxi- cabs disappeared from the streets and the people moved about with the aid of torchlights and electric flashlights. The underground railways were not affected and were the only means of transportation. They, however, were soon choked by the enormous crowds, with the result that numerous stations had to be closed until the crush was relieved in order to prevent accidents. Steam railway traffic to and from London was halted from points as far away as Birmingham, whioh was also envelcped by the fog. The fog here was remarkable because at frequent intervals it was dark gray, murky yel- low and black.

An unusual opportunity is offered at present to make the metric system the American, as well as the international language of commerce, asserted Geo. F. Kunz, president of the: New York Academy of Science. The chairman of the house military committee has asked to see it and it will be sent to the capitol for the committee’s information, though there is no indication that it will go wth any sort of endorsement from the ad- ministration. Secretary Baker has not said wheth- er he will approve or disaprove. The main feature of the staff bill will be its provision for one year of intensive military instruction for all youths subject to ts terms. It is ex- pected that exemptions to physical disqualifications and for other reasons, including possibly the conscription of ference that no hope for peace can be entertained until German militar- ism is crushed.
