~ engaged in submarine telegraphy

The other directors of the Pacific

am personally acquainted with
General Scrymser, who furnished me
gratuitously with valuable advice and
information for cable measure which
| advocated in Washington in the year
of 1891. He at that time informed me
that Chief Justice Allen had discussed
with him twenty years before the sub
iect of an Hawaiian cable, and that
he was very familiar with the plan.
The men who are in the different tel
egraph companies with General
Scrymser propose to accomplish with
no unnecessary delay the work of lay
ing a complete system of Pacific Oceon
/ cables. and to do this solely with
American capital, aided by subsidies
/ from the different Governments con-
cerned and interested; and so far from
being connected with any of the At
lantic cable people, they have of late
years been in active competition for
some portion of the South American
territory, formally held exclusively by
those interested in the Atlantic
cables.
whom | represent are not only thor
oughly in earnest, but have the eX
perience and influence which will en-
able them to accomplish an Hawaiian
cable. and also cable to Japan; anC
that no other American company has
the strength and ability or chances o
success which are possessed by and are
at the command of.this Pacific Gable
Company.
While | do not anticipate that thu
Hawaiian Government will take an,
hasty or ill-advised action upon thi
application, | respectfully urge thu
most rigid investigation into the trutl
of the statements above made. being
confident that the Republic of Hawai-
will find its interests subserved in
most satisfactory manner by making
the engagements herein specified will

THE " 1897" REMINGTON.

Many important new features are 10
be found in the "'97" wheel. For cX-
ample, the frame connections and re-
Inducements are placed on the inside
of the tubing, adding greatly TO the
appearance and strength, and produc-
ing what is commonly called con
cealed' or Flush" joints. Of great
importance to the easy running quail
ties of the bicycle are the gearing,
which in the "97" Remington has
been improved by making the sprock-
cts of a cycloidal cut, with the addi-
ton of fange or shoulder to carry
the side plates of the chain, thus dis
tributing the friction and preventing
the vibration which is very noticeable
in a chain running over the ordinary
sprocket.
In the crank-hanger bearings de-
cided improvement has been made.
The new form of construction being
such that by the removal of one screw
and the left crank, the entire bearing
can be taken out intact, without dis
placing the balls.
Liberal option of tires, saddles and
gears will be given on the new model

FORTUNE THROUGH A MISTAKE

Orange Judd, who made a fortune

returns were prompt and within a

RAYS ARE DANGEROUS.
How They Operated Upon Stephen
Smiths Leg.

Toronto. Ont. April 27.-Stephen
Smith of this city some time ago
fractured his leg and when it mended
discovered that the leg was shorter
than its mate. He entered action
against his doctors and resolved to
submit as evidence of unslSillful treat
ment a photograph of the fracture.
Four experiments with the X-ray
proved unsuccessful and at the fifth he
exposed his leg to the rays for about
two hours. He felt no immediate eff
fects from the long exposure but
shortly afterward a large blister
formed and when it passed away left
a dark brown spot about three and
half inches square and of a peculiar
gangrenous black. Some doctors state
that the skin. flesh. nerves end liga-
ments have been completely destroyed
in the spot where the X-rays pierced,
while other medical experts are not yet
satisfied on the point and are following
the case with solicitude.

Washington, April 27.-The Demo-
cratic members of the finance commit
tee of the senate today followed up
their refusal of yesterday TO allow the
tariff bill to be reported direct to the
senate, with the announcement that
they would expect to be given oppor-
tunity for thorough examination of
all the schedules as amended before it
is reported to the senate. They have
already employed one expert, and will
employ others to take up the bill in
their behalf as soon as it is presented
to them. They expect to be able to
examine the bill sufficiently to permit
it to go to the senate in about two
weeks time after they receive it.
There has been some talk among
the Democratic senator's of granting
hearings by the full committee, but
this proposition does not appear to
have met with general favor.
The Democratic members of the COM
mittee fear that insstence upon this
course would be construed into a de-
termination to delay the bill, which.
they insist is no part of their pro-
gramme. The decision of the Demo
cratic members may have the effect of
causing the postDonement of the posi-
ton of the bill beyond Thursday. Some
Republican committeeman now say
that they may not conclude their work
before Monday morning, as there are
still various matters which are not
definitely decided and which it be-
comes absolutely necessary to fix be-
fore going into the full committee.
They are still working with the hope
of presenting the bill Thursday. but
are still more hopeful than formerly.
The Republicans think they discover
in the present attitude of their
Democratic colleagues. disposition TO
delay the passage of the bill. which
they had not previously counted upon,
and are making their preparation for
a long siege in the senate as we'll as in
committee. Some of them express the
fear that the bill will not become a
law before the 1st of August.
