LONDON'S WAR HAVOC.
LONDON, Ma rob 30.
The last visible evidence of the havoc wrought on London and suburbs by world war Zeppelins has disappeared.
A waste block near Elyplace, in Camberwell, where three houses were blown to pieces in a 1917 air raid, has been cleared for a row of modern buildings. It was supposed to be the last remaining ruin of any consequence.
The base of Cleopatra's Needle on Victoria Embankment, only a few blocks from the Houses of Parliament, is heavily pockmarked, however, from fragments of a bomb that exploded in the street.
