Washington, Feb. 12.-President Nc
kinley sent to congress the following
message:
LAS a consequence of the ratification
of the Treaty Of Paris by the senate Of
the United States and it's expected ratifi-
cation by the Spanish government. the
United States will come into possession of
the Philippine islands on the farther
shores of the Pacific. The Hawaiian
islands and Guam, being United States
territory and forming convenient stopping
places on the way across the sea. neces-
sary speedy cable communication between
the United States and all the Pacific
islands has become imperative. Such
communication should be established in
such way as to be wholly under the con-
troll of the United States, whether in time
OF peace or war. AT present the Philip
pines can be reached only by cables which
pass through many foreign countries, and
the Hawaiian islands and Guam can only
be communicated with by steamers, in
volving delays in each instance of at
least a week. The present conditions
should not be allowed to continue for a
moment longer than is absolutely neces-
sary.
1.-THE time has now arrived when a cable
in the Pacific must extend as far as Ma
Mia, touching at the Hawaiian islands
and Guam on the way. Two methods Of
establishing this cable communication at
once suggest themselves First, construc-
ton and maintenance of such a cable at
the expense of the United States govern
ment, and second, construction and MAIN
teance of such a cable by private
United States corporation, under such
safeguard as congress shall impose
II do not make any recommendation to
congress as to which of these methods
will be the more desirable. The cable the
length of that desired requires such
length Of time for construction and lay
ing, that 1t 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
operation. Further deep sea soundings
must be taken west Of the Hawaiian
Islands before the best route for the ca
BILE can be selected. Under these circum-
stances 1t becomes a paramount neces-
sity that measures should be taken before
the close of the present congress to pro-
vide such means as may seem suitable
for the establishment Of a cable system.
I recommend the whole subject to the
careful consideration of the congress and
to such prompt action as may be advisa-

The rehabilitation Of the Baltimore
and Ohio South Western railway will
begin as soon as the frost is out of the
ground in the spring. Each mile OF
track will be carefully reballasted and
placed in first-cass condition. 1t will
take 100000 pairs Of continuous rail
joints for the forty thousand tons Of
rail. The two thousand standard box
GERS and five hundred steel coal cars
recently ordered will be delivered in
March.
Additional motive power, in the
shape of forty compound freight en-
sines, weighing 100000 pounds, and
five ten-wheel compound passenger en-
gines, weighing 10000 pounds, is
now being built by the Baldwin Loco
motive works
1t is expected that by the time the
property is recognized and becomes
the southwestern division of the Balti-
more and Ohio Rail Road, that it will
be In a physical condition fully equal
to the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road.

Washington, Feb. 11.-All that Gen.
Otis had to report to the war depart.
nent yesterday related to the casual
ties that have occurred so far among

one what is going on, said that he did

given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company q guaranty

the petition the house might expunge
the matter from the records if it so de-
sired. The petition was read and i'm
mediately upon the conclusion of it's
reading Representative Stevens moved
that the prayer of the petitioner be
granted. The motion was seconded
and cariedr almost before the house
iself realized the turn affairs had

Bacon an investigating committee.
Prior to the adjournment of the

adjournment until next Tuesday, but
the senate refused to concur in the
resolution, and the session will pro-
coed regularly. The house deferred
the memorial service to Gov. Briggs to
Wednesday, Feb. %, in which post
ponement the senate agreed. The SEES
sion of the upper house was brief and
uninteresting. Several petitions were
presented for the passage Of the tenn
perance commissioner bill and for the
initiative and referendum amendment
to the constitution. The principal mat
ter of interest was the introduction Of
a bill prepared by the Joint committee
on game laws. providing amendments
to the present law. The bill provides
for deputy game wardens in each
county, from one to three, according
to population. The fees from licenses
for hunters will be paid under one
fifth to the state game warden, three
fifths to the deputies and one-fifth to
the state, reducing the perquisites Of
the state game warden more than one
half. The open seanson for deer is
from Nov. 10 to Dec. /; prairie chicken,
