CABLE FROM
THE SOUTH
Tenders Will Soon Be
Called For.
AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT
Colonial Treasurer Sedden Reports Good
Progress to the New Zealand
Parliament.

In a recent Parliamentary discussion
of the proposed Pacific cable between
the Colonies and British Columbia, the
Right Hon. r. j. Seldom said:
THE position of this great Imperial
and Colonial work is not of an alto
gether satisfactory character. The
prospects, however, are much more
favourable than they We're some little
time ago, for it looked as though Vic
toria and New South Wales were pre-
pared to accept the offer made by the
Eastern Extension Company, which
would have prejudiced the construction
of the Pacific cable. am glad to say
that these Governments are again In
line with Great Britain, Canada,
Queensland, and New Zealand. This
being the case. there is every reason to
anticipate that the construction of the
work will soon be put in hand. Since
the matter was last brought under
your notice, a committee of represen-
tatives of the colonial and other Gov
ernments interested in the cable met
in London, and 1 have gone very care
fully into the details, the nature of
which has not been published, the re-
port being confidential. From what /
can gather, tenders will soon be called
for by the board appointed by the COM
mi(tee for the manufacture and laying
of the cable. Owing to the increased
cost of copper, guttapercha, etc, it is
| estimated that the expense will exceed
the amount calculated upon when this
Parliament passed the Pacific Cable
Act last year, and an amending act to
meet the altered conditions will be nec-
essary. Our proportionate share will
not be much, but it will be necessary
for US to be in a position. as contract
ing parties, to fulfil our engagements.
1t will not. however, be necessary to
take vote on the main estimates. At
the same time, deemed it desirable to
draw attention to this most desirable
undertaking and our responsibilities in
connection rewith.-Auckland, On.

also an analysis of the waters from

in large enough quantities to do harm.
A bill was received from the Dowsett
Company for the rental of Quarantine
Island for the last year and a half. 1t
amounted TO S1452.77. AS the ownership
Of the Island is in litigation the matter
was referred TO the Attorney General
TO report at the next meeting of the
Board.
Dr. Cooper brought up the matter
spoken OF in the meeting OF the Board
Of Education on Monday by Superin-
tendent Atkinson, concerning the large
numbers Of children about the Islands
who are refused entrance to the schools
on account OF having no health certifi-
Gates. Or. Cooper said that he did not
believe there were any such number
of children in the Islands who were not
permitted to go to school. He read
from the Advertisers report of the
meeting of the Board of Education and
stated that he believed that Mr.. Atkin-
son must be mistaken in his statements
as to the large number of these child
rem. DIR. Garvin was directed to Sc
cure figures on the subject to report al
the next meeting of the Board.
The application Of DR.. f. II. Mays fol
a license TO practice medicine was ap.
proved and the Treasurer was directed

A HYPNOTIST
IN TOLLS OF LAW
Arrest of C. Cowan on a
Serious Penal
Charge.

w Macfarlane yesterday swore to
a warrant charging c. Cowan, manager
of the Washington Light Company, and
superintendent of a typewriter supplies
company, with converting to his own use
sev eral typewriting machines belonging TO
the complainant. The warrant states that
the young man has violated Section 157
Of the Penal Laws, and recites that the
evidences of the violation are that two
Smith Premier typewriterS belonging to
Macfarlane have been disposed of and the
proceeds converted to Cowan's own use.
The amount in question is given at sSJ-,
These allegations were sworn to early
yesterday forenoon, and the case put in
the hands of Officer Hanrahan. Young
Cowan was located in Il Beretania street
rooming house where the arrest was
made. The prisoner took his arrest very
I hard. At the station house the formal
Icharge was made and he was sent to the
prison yard where he remained last night.
No one appeared to admit him on bail
/ A third typewriting machine was also
missing and this was found at the store
of Salter K Waity on Fort street. 1t had
been sold to the firm for so. The two
Smith Premier machines are yet missing.
Cowan states that one of the machines
was loaned TO a young man whose name
he does not know, neither does he know
where he can be found. He states the
man was an utter stranger to him and he
had no means of Identifying him.
| There are one or two other charges
AGAINST young Cowan none of which have
been brought formally against him. one
of them is a more serious case than that
already brought by Mr.. Macfarlane.
The defendant is an expert typewriter
and has managed the branch business OF
Mr. MacfarIane for many months. He is
also an alleged hypnotist and will be re-

WE'LL HAVE A CABLE
The United States Finds Itself In the Position of Having to Wait Until It Finds Out What the Other Powers Are Going to Do With China and They Are Studiously Saying Nothing.

Washington. Aug. 2S.- There were several communications to Washington from United Sta,es officials il China today. but being undated in most eases, the government was by TO means satisfi wi:h tha state If communica- tions and the cabinet meeting gave the larger part of its attention to the problem of recifyilg this s,ate of af. fairs.
 Evidences of interference with mes sages have accumulated to the point where the government has determined to take steps t0 eSta abIish ca ablzs of it's own. even if j. is necessary to employ the rather expensive 6avice of a man. of-war plying between Shanghai and Che Foo fir this purpose. Meanwhile word comes that rapid progress is making with the shore cable which is to connect these points. and it is be- lieved that within a we-k these means of communications will be open.
 Three messages were received from General Chaffee today. and while they cast no light on the general situation, they were inferentially important. The generals statement that he needs no siege battery. taken in connection with the diversion of the First cavalry. which was bound from Tdku to Ma nila, seems to make clear that there is no intention of er-ering into a pro- lOnged campaign in China which would involve the use of heavy artillery or of endorsements in the shap- of men and horses.
 At the same time i, cannot be said that the government has shown any sign of a purpose to abandon any just claim it may have secure upon China through the brilliant operations of the little American force in the Flowery Kingdom. Bu- i, begins to ap) pear that the battle of today is one of diplomacy rather than one of arms. notwithstand- ing various runners that have filtered out from Chinese sources of heavy en- agreements between the international forces and the Boxers. Officials here are satisfied that no formidable or ganiZed resistance would be offered by the Chinese if the demands of the DOW CTS are limited to the principles laid down by the United States.
 After the cabinet meeting today it was announced that the government was in a waiting attitude r garding the Chinese situation. Lack of late advices 4ToHl IehlH anu Ile ldIlu-e oL the p"N- CTS to show their hands as to a future
 policy make it necessary for this government to await developments.
 The administration consid IFS i, of vast importance that in the negotia- tions for a settlement of th= Chinese difficulty all the powers should act in unison and hamoniously and is ef forts are being direC,ed to that end. The powers, however. are slow to de- clare themselves.

The band played Tramp, Tramp, Tramp, the Boys Are March ing" and there was a swelling of hearts in the breasts of the thousands of OnlOOkers as the little handful of survivors of the famous Iron Brigade marched by, led by General Edward F.. Bragg.
 The veterans of the Badger state were followed by those from Pennsyl- vania, their old battle flags attracting much attention. Ohio made a magnifi- cent showing in the second division and was followed by New York, the Bidwel- Wilkinson post of Buffalo having the honor of escorting the comander-in- chief
 The third division was made up of posts from Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, Maine California, Nevada, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Yer mont. Potomac, Virginia and North Carolina.
