BY PRIVATE VESSEL.
Pacific Transport Service May Be Discontin
ued-Root Favors the Plan.

Washington, Jan. 21.-Although the
Pacific transport service is not to be
discontinued Immediately, it is quite
certain that within reasonable time
the government ships will be disposed
OF to private persons, and thereafter
the carrying of men and supplies to and
from the Philippines will be done un-
der contract. The quartermaster' de-
partment is strenuously urging the con-
tinuance of the present service, ON the
ground that it is efficient, satisfactory
and economical, and makes the claim
that there is a saving to the govern
ment of at least $100, 900 on each
transport that sails for the Philip
pines. 1t is further asserted that since
the transport service was first
inaugurated, the government has
saved, by reason of owning its own
ships, the full, amount expended in
purchasing and repairing the transport
fleet, basing their computation on the
difference between actual cost of trans
portation and the price asked by the
private shipper.
However, Secretary Root earnestly
favors and recommends the diseontin-
uance of the transport service upon the
Pacific. He realizes that there are
now enough American ships plying
between the Pacific coast and Manila
to carry all the troops and supplies
that must be changed before the pres
ent service can be dispensed with. He
believes that the several transports
should be granted American regis
ters and then be sold, thereby
enabling the government to realize rea-
sonable values, otherwise, they must
be sold at sacrifice. It is pointed
out that many hundreds of thousands
of dollars have been expended in re-
pairs to these vessels in American
ports, and that there can be no reason
able objection to granting American
registers. This done, the secretary
would enter into contracts for carrying
troops and supplies Gan authority that
the department already has) but he
Nbelieves congress should bestow the
further authority to enable the govorn-
ment, in case of war, to take full con-
troll of vessels under contract, to be
used solely for transport purposes upon
reasonable compensation to their
owners.

CAN SOON WIRE VALDES.
United States Making Good Headway on Its
Telegraph Line.

Telegraph Line.
Seattle,5 Jan. 21.-The United States
military telegraph system in Alaska
will be complete from the international
boundary on the Yukon, distance
north of ], Dawson, to Eagle City, and
thence overland 400 miles to Va1des
early in March. Lieutenant William
Mitchell, of the United Statse signal
corps, arrived in Dawson early this
month to receive a shipment of light
wire on its way up the river from
White Horse. This wire, weighing
about 16 pounds to the mile, will be
used for the immediate connection be-
tween Valdes and Eagle, and at that
time Lieutenant Mitchell said he would
have it in place within so days. Dur
ing the coming summer it will be re-
placed with the heavier wire, weighing
about 32O pounds to the mile. Only
600 miles remains to be covered to
complete the connection Of Nome with
Seattle. The line has been completed
from Nome via St. Michael to Rampant
on the lower Yukon. The gap from
Rampant to Eagle will be finished
during the coming summer. By trans
fer at Dawson to the recently COM
pleted Canadian line, Nome and all
lower river points will have communi-
cation with the outside world when
Behring sea navigation is closed in the
fall of 1902. The permanent heavy
wire on the Valdes-Eagle division is
completed 107 miles from Valdes to
Copper Center. Valdes is also con-
nected by IA miles of wire with Fort
Liscum, the army headquarters on
the coast.

TEN WERE KILLED.
Explosion in a Coal Mine Leaves None to
Tell the Tale,

South McAlister, 1. T., Jan 16.-
Ten miners lost their lives in the ex-
plosion yesterday evening in mine No.
of the Milby & Dow Mining Com
pany at Dow, I. T.
The ten men who lost their lives
were the only persons in the pit, and
none were left to tell the story. All
the bodies were recovered, and as
none was burned, the conclusion is
that death was due to afterdamp. The
explosion did not injure the shaft,
which is a new one, and the fire that
followed was put out before it did
much damage. The sound of the ex-
plosion was heard plainly above
ground, and rescuers were at work
promptly. The explosion occurred at
depth of 240 feet. The condition of
the mine indicated that the men
might have made their escape. The
bodies were found within a compara-
lively small radius. Most of the vic
tins were men of families.

OBSERVE M'kINLEY'S BIRTHDAY
Move to Mark the Day by Services and Con.
tributions to Memorial Fund.


Cleveland, O., Jan. 22.-The request
by Governor Nash, of Ohio, has received
hearty response from the governors of
all the states and territories invited to
join in asking the people toT Tproperly
observe the 59th anniversary of the
birth of William Mckinley. Nearly
every governor has either issued proc
lamation or semi-officially requested
that there should be memorial services
on the Sunday preceding January Goth
in all the churches, that contributions
be there received, and that all people
testify by their voluntary offerings their
love and devotion to the dead president.
In many states, notably Kansas, public
schools will hold special exercises and
give to the fund.
In any community where there is no
local auxiliary of the Mckinley Memo
rial Association, contributions by busi-
ness, fraternal or labor organizations,
schools or churches, may be sent to the
treasurer, Myron T. Herrick, Cleve-
land, Ohio. The funds will be applied
to the erection of a fitting memorial
tomb to William Mckinley, over his
last resting place at Canton Ohio.
Judge William r. Day, ex-secretary of
state, is president of the association.
