INDIANAPoLIs, IND.
The indications at this time are that the at
tendance at the 9th National Encampment,
GAR, 10 be held at indianapolis in the hrsf
week in September, will be much the largest In
the history of the organization. The central
point at which the Encampment will be held
will enable greater numberOf the veterans 10
attend at less cost than ever before. Inc
Worlds Fair at Chicago is an attraction tDat
thousands will combine with the Encampment,
as the railroad rates for the latter will proba-
bly be the lowest that will be offered this year.
A definite announcement Of the railroad rate
for the Encampment will not be made until
few weeks later, as there are important reasons
for delaying it for time In the meantime
we have the assurance that it will be as low as
has ever been granted, and this, we believe,
may be relied upon by all who are thinking OF
attending the Encampment
Liberal arrangements are being made for the
entertainment of the veterans. The list OF
special attractions embraces everything that
has been offered in other cities, in addition to
which there will be many new features. These
cannot be enumerated here.
Persons desiring accommodations in hotels or
clearinghouse should make their arrange
ments without delay. We are prepared to put
applicants for such accommodations in the way
of getting what they want, and can at this time
give better attention to them than may be pos
sible few weeks later. Hotel rates range
from 81 so to S. per day for both lodging and
meals The charges of the clearinghouse
are: For lodging and meals, 81 to 81 per day /;
for lodging alone, so cents to $l.25; meals only,
25 cents to so cents each.
Applications for hotel or clearinghouse ac-
commodations should state for whom they are
desired. and at about what price they are want
ed. We will then put the applicant in comrnu-
nication with persons with whom the desired
arrangements can be made.
Halls can be secured for limited number of
Posts desiring them for exclusive use, at a
charge of from $40 to $50 per day.
Ali who desire free sleeping quarters will be
provided for in barracks somewhat similar in
construction to those used in Washington, ex-
cept that wire cots will be furnished instead of
canvas hunks. Posts of each State will be as
signed to the same place as far as possible.
Post Commanders are requested to immedi-
ately ascertain what number Of their comrades
viii want free quarters, and report on an ac-
eompanying blank, giving at the same time the
other information indicated thereon.
Within the next few days arrangements for
free quarters will be fully determined upon,
and to enable US to adequately provide for all.
the information asked for in the blank here
with sent you should be reported with as little
delay as possible.

A Cable to the sandwich Islands.

LIEUT.. Commander Richardson Clover. of the
photographic Office, has just issued publiea-
ton giving the results of last years work on
the survey Of route for a submarine cable
between the Hawaiian Islands and California
This news is very interesting just at this time
when the necessity for direct cable cOmmu-
nieation has never been so keenly felt and
when everybody becomes impatient waiting for
the tri-monthly advices from the place which
the whole world is talking about. The route
selected by the Hydrogrsphic Office as being
the best is a rhumb-line from Monterey Bay,
Cal, to Honolulu, distance of 2,107 miles.
For laying and making the cable the estimated
cost is 81 200 per mile.
