Three Years. Time Needed.

The total time which would be re-
quired 70 establish complete line of cable
across the Pacific ocean is generally est
mated at about three years, but it nee1
not take quite so long as this. The aver
age rate at which cable is manufactured
is about twenty nautical miles per day.
The total amount of cable that would be
required for single line across the Pa
citic is about 5000 miles, SO that the
making of cable would occupy factory
continuously for about sixteen months.
On some occasions cable making has been
carried on at a considerably higher rate
than twenty miles per day. A record piece
of cable making was 1.027 miles made in
twenty-seven working days, or at an aver
age rate of thirty eight miles per day.
On this occasion the maximum length
made in any one day was ffty-two miles.
The detailed survey would naturally
be made during the manufacture of the
cable in sections as portions of the cable
were finished. One important reason for
the work taking long time is the great
distance of the scene of operations from
the point where deep sea cables are made.
Gable ships have not the speed of trans
Atlantic liners, and the cable would have
to be carried voyage of about three
months from the point of manufacture
before any work could be begun

What is Needed Most.

W nat Suam needs. captain LedrN
claims. is a cable and better mail connec-
ton with the outside world. Plans for 4
Pacific cable have been submitted by diff
ferent people at different times. 1t will
necessarily be two years before a cable
can be made. and then more time will he
added in laying the line. The cable will
probably be constructed under the super
vision of the navy department. The chief
of the bureau of equipment estimates the
cost of laying and equipping the pro
posed cable at S10.000,000
The government will have many dlit-
culties There will be the great cost,
while the extreme depth of water is
known TO exist in certain parts of the
Pacific and is much feared in others.
There are tremendously long distances
between landing points. For instance
from San Francisco TO Hawaii is 2.100
miles: from Hawaii to Midway Island is
1.160. or to Marshall Islands 1900; from
Midway Island to Guam is $3.50 miles,
and from Guam to Manila there lies dis
lance of 1872 miles. Then intermediate
points have no active trade.
There has been an estimate submitted
by New York cable company placing
the cost of a cable to japan, Australia
and the Philippines. via Hawaii. at S12.-
0000 900. and the cost of maintenance. in
Guiding two repair shops and operating
expenses. at 100000 a year. This is
only 100000 more than the estimated
eypens,A 70 Manila
