FIGHT THE CABLE GRANT.
Strong Opposition Appears to the
Great Monopoly.

Washington. Oct. 5.-Swift and strong
opposition is developing to the granting
of landing privileges to a private COR
poration for the construction of Pacific
cable.
A conflict was precipitated today by
the arrival of Representative Corliss of
Michigan, who may be termed the
father of the Pacific CABLE In the
ffty-fOurth congress he began his fight
for the construction of a cable to Homo
lulu and every congress since then has
had a cable bill present, each time pro-
viding for government construction.
Since the acquisition of the Philippines
his prospective cable has been length
ened.
Mr.. Corliss made vigorous protests
against granting concessions to any
private company at this time, and at the
request of President Roosevelt explain
ed the cable question to Attorney Cen
eral Knox.
ITO grant one company the privilege
OF landing a cable" he said, means the
establishment of cable monopoly on
the Pacific for a generation. The COM
pany which has the start controls the
business. At first the private cable pro-
motors wanted a subsidy amounting to
100000 year for a period Of twenty
years, equaling $10,0Oo,OO0. In addition
to this Japan had agreed to a subsidy
half as large. In the next congress this
subsidy was decreased. Session after
session the demands of the cable monop-
olieS have been reduced until they are
ing.
Il have not the slightest doubt" Mr.
Corliss continued, that unless this ex-
elusive privilege is granted congress
next winter will pass bill providing for
a cable to be owned and operated by the
government. Such a cable will not cost
more than $4,000, 900, and the saving the
government could effect in tolls upon
government messages would constitute
a fair income upon the outlay. We now
pay $500, 200 annually in tolls to cable
that have lines to the Philip
pines. We could save that sum-"
Both President Roosevelt and Attor-
ney General Knox promised Mr. Corliss
that they would look into his statements
and give them full consideration. In the
meantime the Pacific Gable company is
doing everything in its power to secure
the grants which will enable it to land
in the Philippines. 1t had engaged a
powerful lobby to look after it's interests
at the national capital Mr.. Corliss con-
tends that the government could make
it's cable pay bv charging 25 cents per
word to Honolulu and 30 cents to Ma
Mia.

HIS VOICE HUSKY.
King Edward Ordered to Make
No More Speeches.

New York Oct. 5.-Concerning the re-
port that the illness of King Edward is
caused by cancer of the throat the Lon
don correspondent of the World ca
bles:
The report from Copenhagen followed
close upon the visit to King Edward at
the Danish royal palace at Fredens-
borg of Sir Felix Semon, the motel
throat specialist who was SUNNI oned
from London and who was recently ad-
ded to the staff of royal physicians.
with the title of physician extraordi-
nary. 1t was noticed that the myster-
ious throat trouble had affected the
kings voice, making it husky, and it
was said he had been forbidden to
make any more public speeches. He

Later on in the discussion Herr
Singer referred to Emperor William
guards, in which his majesty said that
he would, If necessary, quell the i'm
pudence and INSTRUMENTATION of the
Berliners with the bayonets of the
guards.
Herr Kirschner again replied. He
said that the emperor's words were not
as strong as reported. They were also
exDlicable from psychological and hui
name point of view, as the speech was
delivered just after the attack on the
kaiser at Bremen. Nevertheless, Herr
Kirschner admitted the imperial speech
had panied him.
