C... says: Recent reports from the north have given rise to a great amount. of speculation with regard to the (L’l‘d’. proposed terminals at Princu Itupert. The manner in which the properties at that point are being handled and the .secrecy with which the .:n)t‘i-titioiis are, being carried on by them have served to strengthen the. belief that within a :short time something of a radical na- ture will be announced. For some. time past the belief has been growing that .another port will be de\e!opvd for handling G. '1‘. 1’. business at l‘aciflc ~lermiinils. before the development ol‘l Prince Rupert is proceeded with. n is claimed by men who have made a careful study of the situation up the. north shore. and who know the lay if the land there, that in all probability .a port will be opened at the head of Itittanial. arm. for handling construc- tion material and supplies. This belief rts baSed on several circumstances. and is being backed strongly by men who have invested in properties in that to- vcslity.

The airship's iii-mile flight from Farnborough to London was ac- complished in just a little over an hour and a half. Hundreds of thousands watched its progress through the city and the. wonderful manmuvres it exe- cuted. The airship crossed the Thames at Blackfriars bridge. and headed for St. Paul's. Gracefully circling St. Paul's dome on an even keel. the air- ship was headed for the \\'ar Ofiice. Its route was down Ludgatevllill. acmss Ludgate Circus and on from there over Fleet street and the Strand to Trafal- gar square. The airship travelled at - the rate of about. fifteen miles an hour. The Union Jack fluttered astern. I-‘rom Trafalgar Square the airship moved ra- fully and under complete ointrot to the new War Office. It passed over that building. then circled about West- minster Abbey and the Houses of Par- Iinnn‘nt. and then rcr‘rosscd the Thames. It was estimated that the. wind against which the ship travelled sometimes had 0 [Ul‘t‘t‘ Of lWOh’e miles an hour. The maximum speed attained going with the wind was between 23 and 2t miles an hour. andagainst the wind the speed was from five to seven miles an hour.
