- Discussion. The Author introduced the Paper with the aid of a series of lantern slides, including some views of Moscow Metro stations. He observed that the work carried out in Moscow had suggested the improvement, if possible, of the degree of space and freedom of circulation in a modern tube station. In Moscow that had been successfully effected by cut-and-cover methods. Perhaps it was rather unfair to have included in the Paper in contrast the rather gaunt photographsof Gants Hill station, because they showed only the bare bones of the constructional work, but the general form aimed a t could be appreciated...

- 88 DISCUSSION ON SOME USES OF Discussion. The Author, in introducing the Paper, said that when he had been asked to prepare a Paper on the use of explosives in civil engineering he had had to decide whether to deal in detail with a few particular aspects or to cover broadly the major fields in which explosives were necessary for the successful and efficient accomplishment of operations, giving as many practical data as possible. There had been many interesting and outstanding developments in explosives for military purposes, and many ingenious weapons and devices had been developed for using those explosives...

M.Inst. C.E. Author's Reply to Correspondence. The Author, in reply, observed that of the three' soil types mentioned by Mr. Wallhouse, cotton soil had been successfully stabilized as a foundation by the admixture of sand in depth. It was necessary to reinforce the surface layer with coarser material, such as gravel or graded stone, so as to enable it tocarry traffic through the rainy season without deformation...

- LATE CORRESPONDENCE. 115 encountered very rarely in a natural state, they could be produced by admixture in many localities. In most cases it was necessary to mix three different materials, the most usual being the following :(U) Roadside soil of the A5 to A7 type, containing little if any coarse material. (b) Gravel or decomposed rock consisting chiefly of coarae aggregate between 2 inch and inch, but usually containing a small proportion of fine material, also of the A5 to A7 type. (c) Sand of the A3 type, probably obtained from the beds of existing or former river channels and containing a proportion of fine sand and silt...
