shorter and more direct than the Brit

nearly so long as that from Vancouver

PACIFIC CABLE.

Additional force was given to the
Presidents accommodation for the
construction OF a trans-Pacific cable
BY the announcement. simultaneous
with his message. that the British
government and the governments OF
the colonies concerned had accepted
the offer OF a British company to lay
n pureIy British cable across the Pa
cifc Ocean. The cost OF the cable Is
to be IS 975 600. and IL Is to be com
pleted In the next two years. This
Ia the elimination OF a series of sur
veys. estimates and negotiations ex-
tending over many years. IL Is largely
due TO the energy OF Mr.. Joseph Cham
berlain. and there Is little reason TO
doubt that he will speedily carry the
enterprise through to completion.
IL will. on sentimental as well as
other grounds. be cause for regret that
the United States will not possess the
distinction OF having first spanned the
Pacific Ocean with telegraphic cable.
/ That fact ought not. however, TO deter
this country from making every EFFORT

The existence OF n British cable across
the Pacific will not lessen the need
OF United States cable across
