natin,, that the project Of endeavOIing TO iaise
the broken cable has been abandoned. This is
not stated directly, but is an inference from the
fact that the underwriters have paid the insuT-
aneps upon the cable, which is eguoyient to
am admission of its total loss. We also have
fha additional information that the company
has ordered a new cable and that the attempt
