G. III. ". & A. Railroad.
Officials Say Work viii Begin in rwo
Weeks.

For the rasi two years there has
been considerable doubt expressed
as to the motives of the projectors
of the proposed Columbus, Hooking
Vail Y and Athens railroad. many
holding the belief that the road
would never be built.
During all this time, however,the
projectors have been quietly at
work, doing what they could to-.
waru the construction Of the road.
AS might b. expected they ram up
against many difficulties in enlist
ing financial support, probably for
the reason that q portion of the
right OF way was in questions. Com
sequently, but little progress has
been made ia the way OF construct
lon.
To representative Of the Press.
Post one Of the officials of the COM
pany stated Monday morning that
active work on the construction of
the road would be commenced in q
few weeks. He said that since the
Supreme court has decided an i'm
portant point in their favor it
would be an easy matter to secure
financial backing.
There seems to be no reason why
the Columbus, Hooking Valley and
Athens should not be made n pro.
fitable investment, provided that
the projectors do not load it down
with interest bearing securities
The construction of 200 miles OF
main traxk, 90 miles of branches
siding, buildings, etc, should not
cost To exceed $4,000 per mile.
The rolling stock aud equipment
could be procured for at least $1,000
per mile, making the total cost per
mile $4,000. For the $50 miles Of
road the cost would on that basis
be something like $6,500,OO0.
Tho figures, in opinion of en-
gineers, are rather high, but will
serve the purpose. 1t will be read
| lily seen what the -bearing
securities should amount to, but in
modern railway financiering it is
the custom to irsue bonds far in ex.
cess of the value of the property
and the inevitable result is bank
ruptcy sooner or later.
Without saying or intimating
that it is the intention of the pro-
jectors of the G. Ii. V. & A. to load
the road with bonds, yet if it be
their purpose to bdr,len IL like the
Columbus, Hooking Valley and To
ledo, Which Is struggling under Il
bonded Indebtedness of about $685.
900, 900, it would seem to be better
that the road never be built.-Press.

Liliuokalani of Hawaii, accompanied by
several personal friends, her physician

the Spanish guns and gunners were inef-
fective, our guns and gunners were SO eff
fective that before the range was or could
be reduced the Spanish ships were either
seriously crippled or their crews demor-
allied.
The experience of the war has been
another demonstration of the Importance
10 the nation of a sea power The bu-
reau will be pardoned this reference to 4
somewhat trite lesson when its import
ance is considered 1t will, / think be
admitted that from the first the only ap
prehension in this country was on ac-
count of the Spanish navy. 1t was Ger
Vera's feet that was feared. We did not
fear the Spanish army-wouid not have
feared it if it had been three times as
powerful unless it had been supported
by navy powerful enough to form an
efficient convoy and bring it TO our coast,
On the contrary, the Spanish navy, even
without any Spanish army. would have
been a menace, though ii had consisted
OF but one well-equipped cruiser. Until
that cruiser had been b'ockaded, captured
or destroyed, any unprotected point on
our coast and all of our sea-borne COM
merce would have been at its me-cy, and
no army. however efficient, could have
protected us from it. 1t required navy
for this work, and an effective navy.
Transporting and Loading Troops.
This subject brings me to the question
Of those operations in which the navy
and army are called upon to cooperate.
Happily, all points OF difference which
came up between the naval and military
commanders in the late campaign were
in the end solved satisfactorily by vic
tory. Some of them were of no military
Importance. One glaring defect in the
system for joint operations was found,
however, in the matter Of transporting
and conveying troops. There can be no
question that all this part of the cam
paign would have been more smoothly
handled had the navy been given by law
and regulation that part Of the work
which naturally falls to it. The bureau
recommends that steps be taken to
frame a bill putting this matter in the
hands Of the navy, and that Congress be
requested TO pass such a bill
Commodore Crowninshield indorses
the recommendation made by the super
intendent of the Coast Signal Service
in regard to the establishment of a per-
manent signal service such a perma-
nent system could be kept up al compara-
lively little cost. and would be of value
to many departments of the Government,
and would Furthermore be skeleton
around which a highly efficient system
could be built upon the outbreak of a
war
