Corrections & Clarifications

`The new world order' (Cover Story, Oct. 13)

In "The new world order" (Cover Story, Oct. 13), British Telecommunications PLC's stake in MCI Communications Corp. was misstated. BT holds 20% of the company's stock. Also, the name of John Sidgmore, WorldCom Inc.'s vice-chairman, was spelled incorrectly. Finally, the article should have clarified that BT's $19 billion offer was for the 80% of MCI it doesn't own.
