The Broad Neck Church Festival.
Editor Of the Epening Capital:


fear that your comments upon the
excursion TO Mill Greek were OF such q
nature as to misslead the minds of the
people. or cause them to place the blame
where there Is none. No one is more
grieved than ! am at the unfortunate &C.
currence, and j am fully satisfied that
those who had the festival in charge are
as deeply panied as am. In fact no one
can be charged with willful neglect or
evil Intentions, rs can be clearly demon
strated.
First the people of Broad Neck had
worked hard in making pr operations to
entertain large gathering; not only had
they given time and labor, but they had
given their money, therefore it is not for
q minute TO be supposed they would dc
that which would Illustrate the object in
view. And as concerns the pastor of
the church, certainly he would not do so
suicidal an act as to devise means of
keeping people away from Place where
the money which they would have spent
was to have been used in hquidating q
debt upon his own church building. These
things, Mr.. Editor, were well-known to
you, and from q sympathetic, christian
standpoint, you might haye written lit
tie more charitably.
The truthsof the whole matter is this
The Broadneck people had concluded
that the threatening weather, which had
been all day, would prevent the steamer
from making the trip, therefore they did
not send their wagons to meet them.
And then to show their appreciation OF
their Annapolis friends comfort and
presence, they postponed the entertain
ment to the next evening hoping to give
them an evening of pleasure and not one
of disappointment.
Indeed the whole affair seems to have
been one of these unavoidable something's
for which none can be censured
Yours, &c,

A Cable to Honolulu.

Messrs. G.. w. McNear, J. f. Chap
man and John d. Spreckels, the
committee of the San Francisco
Chamber of Commerce to whom the
project of cable to Honolulu and
New Zealand was referred, made a
report in which they say:
We deem the interests of the United
States and its merchants are paramount
to the interests of all others in the Ha-
waiian Islands.
The citizens of that kingdom recognize
the fact, and naturally look to the
United States for aid in giving them
cable communication with our continent,
thereby facilitating its commerce and
trade and securing larger share of the
same for this country.
Gable communication with the Pacific
islands would be of great benefit to our
nation, enabling us to communicate with
its navy feet stationed in the Pacific.
We think such cable facilities should
be under the control of the United States
Government. es-a-a----
Preliminary to securing the desired
cable, We recommend that the Congress
of the United States be asked to furnish
definite surveys and soundiEgs and such
other aid as may be necessary. We
have prepared the following resolution.
A resolution covering those points
and appended to the report was car
>ried unanimously.-lS. f. Call.
