NEWS COMES OF
THE IROQU0IS
Letter From Lie utenant Com
mander Pond by Way
of China.

on or before the middle OF next
month the United States Gunboat Iro-
quois will be back IN Honolulu after
three months surveying work about
Midway Island. This information was
received on Saturday by Captain Mer-
~ in a letter from Lieut. Commander
Charles +. Pond, commanding the Iro-
quois.
The news from the Iroquois came In
a somewhat roundabout fashion. When
the China was last here Captain Merry
had a talk with Captain Seabury, her
skipper. and he agreed If possible to
sperk the Iroquois and find out how
matters were going with the staunch
little boat. Accordingly a package of
papers was made up, together with a
quantity of mail which had been ac-
formulating since the Iroquois left here
in the middle OF May, and this Captain
Seabury said he should try to deliver to
the Iroquois' commander. On Satur-
day Captain. Merry received a letter
from Commander Pond. dated at Mid
way Island, July 3rd, telling of the
progress Of the work and the health
and safety OF the entire crew. Com
mander Pond says that all of the in
side surveying and plotting OF the
shores of the island for the laying of
a cable had been finished at that time
and that he expected to complete the
outside work in a few weeks and would
arrive in Honolulu about August 10th
or 18th. Commander Ponds letter was
taken by the China to Yokohama and
there posted by Captain Seabury, and
came back from the Orient by the City
of Picking.
| The Iroquois sailed from Honolulu on
May 18th for Midway Island to sound
the waters all about the island for the
purpose of ascertaining it's availability
as point for the landing of cable.
The island is but a barren sand spit a
couple of thousand miles west of the
Hawaiian Islands, and since the Iro-
Iquois departed nothing has been heard
of her until the news arrived on Satur-
day

effecting communications among the vari.
Gus islands and the capital. One beauty OF
such Il system would lie in the lessened dan
ger of the plants being molested by enemies
During the month of March, 1898, the
telegraph from Lingayen to within a few
miles OF Bolinos was destroyed by the
rebels, and the cable station at Bolinos
besieged This led to the removal of the
sable from that point by the E. f. T. Co.,
and its submarine extension direct to
Manila, as already referred to.
The question of a Pacific cable is being
agitated by both American and British
capitalists, and must be realized at no dis
tart day. A route has been planned by
our Government to start from point $40
miles south of San Francisco, extending to
Honolulu, 2,0S9 miles; to Wake Island,
1000 miles; thence to Guam, 800, and
from there to Manila, ,372 miles, making
total distance of 6,761 miles over what
appears to be feasible and practicable
course.
The cost Of constructing such cable it
is believed would notexceed $1,000 per mile,
and considering the improved mechanical
facilities for manufacturing cables, one
might be built for one-half that amount
One difficulty to be met with in laying
Pacific cable is the great depths of the
Pacific, which far exceed the cable sound
lngS of the Atlantic or Indian Oceans
The greatest depths between San Francisco
and Honolulu is 1890 feet, and between
the latter port and Manila the greatest
depth is estimated to be 10000 feet. The
greatest depth heretofore at which any
cable has been laid is between Hayti and
the Windward Islands across the Caribbean
Sea, where the soundings show a depth
of $4,000 feet. II is not believed that the
question of depth will be serious one in
laying Pacific cable, because the ordi-
nary range of depths along the route sur
veyed is from two and half to three miles.
so that practically the excessive depths
may be bridged by the cables
With the exception of Pacific connec-
tions the civilized world is now pretty well
united by electric lines of communication.
and with this great ocean in harness. ii
would be completely so.--H. C. KIRK.
