WIRELESS LINES
MARCONPS REPRESENTATIVE is
NOW IN SEATTLE.
Intended to Establish Stations Be-
tween the Sound and the Orient,
Going by Way of Alaska and
Behring Sea--WOrk Begins as
Soon as Plans Mature.

Seattle, April 9.-The northern half
of the shores of the Pacific ocean, from
Puget Sound to Japan and China and
the Philippines, is to be girdled by the
magic connection Of the wireless tele-
graph. The De Forrest company, one
of the largest in existence, and operat-
ing all along the shores of the Atlantic
and across that ocean, is to establish
stations from Seattle around the bor-
ders of Alaska, and the Aleutian ISL
ands to Siberia and thence to the coun
tries south. DIR. De Forrest, of the COM
pany, arrived in Seattle last evening
from New York, to prepare for estab-
fishing the stations.
DIR. De Forrest was led to select Sc
attic as his eastern terminus through
John Rosene, whom he met in New
York, and so impressed was the NOV
ing spirit in the company with the
project as outlined, instead of crossing
tue Pacific by way of Hawaii and the
Philippines, that it Immediately alb
sorbed his entire attention, and be
started for the west with haste to form
ulate plans that work may soon begin.
Within eighteen months, or at most
two years, he expects to complete this
circuit between the West and the far
East and send messages to Yokohama
and Hong Kong for one-fourth the toll
now charged.
1t is proposed to to establish stations
at intervals Of several hundred, or per-
haps thousands of miles from Cape
Flattery along the border of the, Pacific.
For approximately 100000 this line
may be completed, while Pacific ca
BILE would cost fiom $10,000,000 to
SIP, 100000. DR.. De Forest predicts
that not more than two cables will
ever cross the Pacific ocean.

CALL THE STRIKE OFF.
Amsterdam Strikers Protest Against
Committees Act.

Committees Act.
Amsterdam, April 13.-The work
mems defense committee decided to
proclaim a cessation of the general
strike at midday. The strike was new
er really effective.
At monster meeting held later in
the day the Federated Trades Union re-
pudiated the action of the workmen' 8
defense committee and decided to con-
tinue the strike without the consent OF
the committee. The tnmult prevented
the members of the defense committee
from securing hearing. With the ex-
ception of the diamond cutters all the
men will remain out.
The home workmen's defense issued
a manifesto explaining that continu-
ance of the strike will only expose the
strikers TO the vigorous penalties of the
new anti-strike bill which has practi-
cally become law.
The committee has therefore decided
to leave each trade union free to act as
it thinks best.
The calling off of the strike has re-
suited in the holding of angry mass
meetings of strikers.

HIS GOOD TIME.

Butte, Mont, April IA special to
the Inter Mountain from Cinnabar says
President Roosevelt is having the
time of his life in the National park.
Just now he is about thirty miles from
Fort Yellowstone, in the midst of a
herd of elk. In a few days he will
move to another camp, where he can
observe buffalo, mountain sheep and
antelope.
While he is absent from his train,
Secretary Loeb is virtually head OF the
United States government. He writes
all official communications to heads of
different departments at Washington,
answers letters from bureau chiefs and
decides all questions that are ordinarily
passed up to the president.
The private car Elysian is, therefore,
the temporary White House. A little
desk, built into the dining room of the
car, is Deputy President Loeb's office
and cabinet room combined. Assistant
Secretary Barnes might be termed the
cabinet.
The cabinet and deputy president
meet every morning, attend to what
correspondence comes up, and then adj
journ the seat of government to Gardi-
ner or the Yellowstone river, where the
trout are jumping.
Secretary Loeb received no word from
the president during the day.

BAGDAD RAILWAY PLANS.
England, France and Germany to
Have Common Interest.

London, April 13.-The Standard
learns that an agreement has been con-
summa.ed whereby Great Britain, Ger
many and France will participate
equally in the control of the proposed
Bagdad railroad, the revenues of which
will be guaranteed by the Turkish GUS
toms.
The main Bagdad railway is to run
from Konla to KaramanereylI, Mossul,
Bagdad and Basra, with branches to
Alepbo, Urfa and the Gulf of Alexan-
dretta. The Germans obtained the
concessions for the line, and, accord
ing to dispatch from Constantinople,
February IL, the Turkish government
guarantees an income of $4,000 per XII
lometer, and an annual contribution of
5000 per kilometer, to be used In the
payment of working expenses of the
first portion of the line from Konia to
Bagdad. The convention between the
Turkish government and the Germans
was then awaiting the issue of an trade
to become effective. The Russian press
has been antagonistic to the Bagdad
railway on the ground that it would in
crease British and more particularly
German influence in those regions.

General Payne has given out state

'fDuring the months of January and

Assistant Postmaster General Bristov

tion that it should be exhaustive. Il
is proper for me to add that l laid be-
fore the president the information
which l had in my possession, and that
he fully approved of the action l pro.

Inquiry Will BE Thorough.
The whole administration of the
postoffice department is made subject
to the investigation under the postmas.
ter generals direction. and every div.
sion will be probed thoroughly, and
the inquiry be made as thorough as the
departments most expert inspectors
can make it.
AT the same time Mr.. Payne's Dur.
pose is to give just and fair treatment
to all concerned, and not to act arbi.
trarily and with undue haste. For that
reason it may be stated that no imme-
date changes of Importance in the per-
sonnet of the service are contemplated.
The office of the assistant attorney
general for the postoffice department is
among those included in the general
inquiry, and until the investigation of
affairs generally is completed it is prob
able that no successor to Mr.. Tyner will
be named.
1t is learned that it will be several
weeks before the postoffice inspectors
will be able to complete their work.
When they have finished Mr.. Bristow
will prepare a comprehensive report on
the whole subject. 1t is probable that
some parts of it will be withheld from
publication.
