NO WISCONSIN DECISION.
Believed That Chief Justices Illness
Caused DELAY,

MADISON, Wis, September 27.-No de-
cision was handed down by the supreme
court today as to which of the two repub-
lican factions is entitled to place its NOM
inees on the state ticket at the November
election. One faction, known the half
breeds" is headed by Gov. La Toilette The
other is headed by S. A. Cook, and is sup
ported by United States Senators Spooner
and Quarles. This is known as the stalwart
faction. The stalwarts have asked the su-
preme court to enjoin the secretary of state
from placing the names of the La Toilette
nominees on the ticket.
1t is generally believed that the opinion of
the court on the case is in the hands of
Chief Justice Cassedaym, who was detained
today at his house by Illness. He was in
his chambers yesterday for short time
and his condition was reported as very
much improved today. II he is able to ap-
pear on the bench tomorrow, there Is hope
that the decision may then be rendered.

MASSACHUSETTS PRIMARIES.
General Interest in Contests for Con.
gressional Nominations Today.

*
BOSTON, September 27.-spirited contests
for congressional nominations in various
districts led to general interest today in
the primaries which were held in twenty
two Massachusetts cities and two towns

sional districts, all in Boston and vicinity,
the congressional candidates were voted
for directly.
Two of the most vigorous contests in
the state are in the tenth district. where
Joseph F. O'Conner Is trying to defeat
Representative William S. McNary for the
democratic nomination, and eleventh dis
trict, where four republicans seek the nomi-
nation. These include Eugene N. Foss,
who has been an active supporter of Cana
dian reciprocity for several years; Stephen
OMeara, formerly editor of the Boston
Journal; former State Senator Isaac H.
Hutchinson and former State Councillor
Isaac V. Allen.
In the fourth congressional district, which
includes parts of Worcester and Middlesex
counties there is a three -cornered con-
test for the republican nomination-Repre-
sentative Charles Q. Tirrell of Natick, SEN
ator Otis M. Cove of Waltham and Rep
resentative George H. Doty, also of Wal
than. Alexander B. Bruce of Lawrence
and ]. Joseph Hennessey Of Lowell OPP
pose each other for the democratic nomi-
nation in the fifth district. The seventh
district is the scene of a sharp contest
between Representative Ernest w. Roberts
of Chelsea and former State Representa-
tive Frank p Bennett of Saugus, for tha
republican nomination. Still another re-
publican contest is waged in the twelfth
district between former Mayor John W.

hand for the establishment of new sta
tion5 about S270, 900, 1t is evident that
a good beginning can be made at kiska
island, if the desired amount is appro-
priated.
The navy department will send Il
collier to Kiska island early in the
coming spring to make further de-
tailed examinations, in order that in
formation of such kind may be fur
nished to contractors as will enable
them to bid inteligently. The depart
ment wants to store about 100000 tons
of coal at Kiska island, and this will
make it by far the largest coaling plant
on the Pacific. kiska island, Little
Kiska island and several small neigh
boring islets have already been with
drawn by order OF the president for the
use of the navy department.
If the station is established the gov
eminent will sooner or later connect
the island with the main line of the
~ CdDlt. dilNi bhNiC WIN oi't' Wv u
continuous telegraph line extending
from Seattle half way TO the Orient.
In fact the line will reach more than
half way to the nearest large settle
ment ON the Asiatic c0ast-N ladivO-
stok. Kiska island is about 800 miles
west of Dutch Harbor, and about LOO
or 800 miles easterly from Nladivo-
stok
A company Incorporated under the
laws of the state of Washington, and
known as the North American Tele-
graph & Cable Company, some time
ago made plans for laying cable to
connect the United States with several
points in the Orient, the nearest OF
which is Vladivostok. and Il bill au-
thorizing the company to lay the cable
is now pending in congress. 1t was IN
troduced by Senator Mitchell, of Ore
gon. 1t is probable that if the govern
ment should lay cable as far west
ward as kiska island this company
would be encouraged to complete
promptly the connection as far west
ward as Nladivostok.

AIeutian Coaling Station
the First Step.
FOR STRATEGIC USE
Ambitious Scheme of Naval Ex.
pertS to Utilize AIeutian
Islands.

Washington, March l.. There are
some highly interesting possibilities in
the plan of the navy department for
establishing Il large coaling station and
naval rendezvous in the Aleutian
islands, about half way between the
United States and China, on the great
circle route. If IL certain paragraph in
the pending naval appropriation bill
goes through, the station will certainly
be established. If so, an ambitious
scheme of the naval experts viii be
realized; moreover it will mark the
beginning of steps to utilize our far
Northern possessions 10 the full extent
of their value for strategic purposes.
A continuous submarine Geographic
cable connecting the United states
with the Orient will probably be an
incident of this important step in naval
and military progress.
The Importance of these prepare
lions, from II commercial standpoint,
also, is, of course, very great. New
ships are building for the Oriental
trade of the Pacific Northwest, our
commerce between that part of the
United States and the countries of the
far East is growing rapidly, and the
telegraph is the natural accompani-
ment of commercial progress.
An item in the naval appropriation
bill provides $500, 900 for the establish
ment of coal depots, including the pur-
chase of land. AS told in these dis
patches some time ago, the general
board of the navy wants Il coaling
plant and naval base at Kiska island, Il
small body of land in the Aleutian
islands, several hundred miles west of
Dutch Harbor. The pending bill does
not name Kisha island. but it is known
that lthe navy department wants the
money largely for this project.
The only other large coaling station
expected to he undertaken in the near
future Is at Olangapo. oubig bay, in
the Philippines. The department has
asked for 5000, 600 for coaling depOts,
and this amount is named in the bill.
