eyes around to see If any means offered
for his forcing his entrance into the
house. But as the habitation of the
doctor was lonely, every precaution
had been taken by him to render it
secure against robbery; the windows
below were well barricaded and Sc
cured, and those on the upper story
were too high for any one to obtain
admittance by them.
The door was strong, and not to be
forced by any means which presented
themselves to the eye of Vanderdeck-
en-. For few minutes he paused to
consider, and as he reflected, so did his
anger cool down, and he decided that
it would be sufficient to recover his
relic without having recourse to vio-
lence. So he called out, in a loud
voice:
"Mynheer Poots, know that you can
hear me. Give me back what you have
taken, and l will do you no hurt; but
if you will not, you must take the
consequence, for your life shall pay the
forfeit before | leave this spot
This speech was indeed very plainly
heard by Mynheer Poots; but the little
miser had recovered from his fright,
and thinking himself secure could not
make up his mind to surrender the
relic without struggle; so the doctor
answered not, hoping that the patience
of Philip would be exhausted, and that
by some arrangement, such as the sac
rifice of a few guilders, no small mat
ter to one so needy as Philip, he would
be able to secure what he was salts
fled would sell at high price.
Vanderdecken, finding that no an
swer was returned, INDUCED in strong
invective, and then decided upon meas
ures certainly in themselves by no
means undecided.

URGES THE PACIFIC CABLE.
President Sends a Message to Congress
on the Subject.

eSS
on the Subject
| WASHINGTON, Feb - The Presi
dent to-day sent the following special
message to Congress:
"As consequence of the ratification
of the treaty of Paris by the Senate
of the United States and its expected
ratification by the Spanish govern
1ent the United States will come
nto possession of the Philippine
islands upon the farther shores of
the Pacific. The Hawaiian islands
and Guam being United States terri
tory and forming convenient stopping
places upon the way across the sea the
necessity for speedy cable communica-
tion between the United States and
all the Pacific islands has become inn
perative
"Such communication should be
established in such way as to be
wholly under the control of the United
States whether in time of peace or
war. At present the Philippines can
be reached only by cables which
pass through many foreign coun-
tries, and the Hawaiian islands and
Guam can only be communicated with
by steamers, involving delays in each
instance of at least week. The
present conditions should not be al
lowed to continue for moment longer
than is absolutely necessary.
1.-THE time has now arrived when a
cable in the Pacific must extend as far
as Manila, touching at the Ha-
waiian islands and Guam upon
the way. Two methods of estab-
ishing this cable communication at
once suggest themselves First con-
struction and maintenance of such
cable at the expense of the United
States government, and second, con-
struction and maintenance of such
cable by private United States cor
poration under such a safeguard as
Congress shall impose
Il do not make any recommends
tion to Congress as to which of these
methods would be more desirable. A
cable of the length of that proposed
requires so much time for construc-
ton and laying that it is estimated
that at least two years must
elapse after giving the order for the
cable before the entire system could
be successfully laid and put in opera
ton. Further deep sea soundings
must be taken west of the Hawaiian
islands before the best route for
the cable can be selected. Under
these circumstances it becomes para
mount necessity that measures should
be taken before the close of the pres
ent Congress to provide such means as
may seem suitable for the establish
ment of cable system.
II recommend The whole subject to
the careful consideration of the Con-
gress, and to such prompt action as
may seem advisable. William McKin-

Army Expenscs to BE Cut.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The army
appropriation bill was completed by
the House committee on military af-
fairs, and by dint of pretty severe
cutting of numerous items it was
brought down TO $40, o34, 372. 1t is
framed on basis of an army of about
100000 men, and contemplates the en-
aetment of the Hull bill for the in
crease of the army or the retention of
volunteers and regulars up to that
number. Specific provision is made
for nine major generals and twelve
brigadieF generals.

THE CLIENT OBEYED ORDERS.
Clemenoeau Promised to Use His Infiu-

Clemenceau PROMISED to use HIS Influ-
ence and Did So.
NJ Georges Clemenceau, who has
been SO prominently before the pub
lie in the Dreyfus affair as editor of
the Aurore, told us a good story in the
chamber of deputies the other day,
says To-Day. Years ago, when he was
the mayor of Martre and at the same
time a deputy, he opened dispensary
in the quarter, where advice was given
free, for Clemenceau is a specialist in
skin diseases. One day he noticed that
he had just one hour in which to get
his luncheon and go down to the
chamber, where he had to interpellate
the government. He called his assist
ant and said: How many more pa
tients are there waiting?" Six" re-
piled the man. One after the other
had his case diagnosed, and Clemen-
ceau, after another glance at his
watch, said: "Tell the other two to
undress at once, as l have on4' two
more minutes to wait" One entered
and Clemenceau wrote out a preScrlp-
ton in the twinkling of an eye. The
last man came in as naked as the day
when he was born. Clemenceau eyed
him for a minute and then said: "You
are suffering from no skin disease.
What have you come here to worry
me for?" The man looked at him
aghast for a minute and replied:
"Skin disease? 1 never said had a
skin disease. Your man came and told
me to undress, monsieur lie depute, and
I did so. All wanted to ask you was
to use your influence to get my sister
a place in the postofice in Algeria"
Clemenceau smiled, took his name and
did use his influence.
