Peace Commission To Obtain One For
Cable Station.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE acquisi-
ton of an island in the Caroline group,
owned by Spain, will be part of the
work Of tho Paris peace commission.
Gable communication between the
United States and Manila, via Homo
lulu, is regarded as desirable should we
occupy the islands, and the distance
between Honolulu and Guam island, in
the Ladrone group, is SO great as to
make an intermediary station neces-
sary.
Officials believe that one of the Caro-.
line islands would be useful as such in
termediary station. The acquisition of
either of the two Caroline islands which
are considered suitable for a cable sta
ton would involve d money considera-
ton. and the United States will pay
Spain a reasonable price for its reliR-
quishment.
