from their private advices that the re-
cent visit OF King Edward to his
nephew, Emperor William, was not
brought about by purpose to initiate

between Russia and Japan,
IL. reason to believe that some
very ii and discreet inquiries as
to the opportunities OF some such
overtures at this time have emanatcd
from Washington.
1t may be stated that the result has
been to disclose the fact that neither
of the belligerent Powers is yet in
a humor 10 sue for peace, nor even
TO entertain overtures from any third
Power on that subject.
The State Department will continue
to maintain the friendly position il
has so far held toward both Russia
and Japan, standing ready to mediate
and extend its good Offices to the full
whenever the belligrents indicate
their willingness to accept them. II
cannot be said that the situation is
sensibly changed from what it was
a month ago, saving the fact that
there is more optimistic feeling in
official quarters that there will soon
be an opening for diplomacy to exer-
else its peaceful methods in the Far
Eastern struggle.

LIVE WASHINGTON AFFAIRS.
Gets Wireless Circuits,

Rear-Admiral Manney, chief Of the
Naval Equipment Bureau, entered in.
to agreement with Abraham White
president uf the American De Forest
Wireless Telegraph Company, for the
acquisition by the Navy of FIVE OF
the longest wireless telegraph cir
cuts III the world up TO this date
two of them being over 1000 miles
in length.
The navy has felt keenly the neces-
sity OF a wireless connection between
its naval bases at Guantanamo, Guile
bra and Key West, realizing that IN
the event OF hostility with a foreign
power the existing cable system
would be the first point of attack.
The necessity of protecting the canal
zone has enlarged the problem OF
finding secondary means of com
munica,ion, and the General Board
has learned lesson from the isoll-
ton Of Port Arthur in the present
war. Therefore some time ago the
Equipment Bureau began a series of
competitive tests under the imme diate
direction Of Lieutenant Commander
Jayne, and the result was the arrange
ment today between Admiral Manney
and Mr.. White to sign a contract for
the supply TO the Government of
wireless instruments, guaranteed to
maintain reliable service on these
circuits Key West TO Panama, 1000
miles; South Cuban Coast to Panama,
72o miles; Pensacola to Key West,
4so miles; South Cuba to Porto Rico,
600 miles.
Tho service proposed is exceptional
in that the wireless current must
traverse not only the ocean. but to
leap over considerable islands. such
as Cuba and Haiti, and in the lat
ter case, and perhaps in the others,
run risk OF crossing currents set up
by apparatus on islands not a part
OF the United States. The CONTRACT
ing company assumes full RESPONSE
bility for the working of the system
in such cases.
On its part, the Government agrees
to operate in harmony with such sta
tions and vessels as now use the De
Forest system and this is said to ex-
tend 10 Panama. The Governments
instruments will be attuned to har-
monize with those Of the company
to prevent interference. The navy
will have the company's kew. so the
two may work interchangeably with
out the possibility of their messages
being picked uD or stolen or sup
pressed by vessels or stations equipped
with other kinds of apparatus. The
enormous value of wireless teleg-
raphy in naval operations, as revealed
by Admiral Togo's last exploit off
Port Arthur, has hastened the Navy
Department TO conclude this contract.
The Navy Department has received
permission from the Department OF
Commerce and Labor to establish
wireless telegraph station on Farrell
ton Island, off San Francisco, and is
now arranging to erect pole and equip
the station at once.

arisen through the use OF the words

would not be likely TO advance from

nearly one hundred miles southwest
after getting through the pass.
On the other hand there is Mono
Tien pass near Hai-Cheng and about
forty miles from that town. 1t is
possible that Mono-Tien pass has been
meant when Molten pass was men
toned. 1t also seems probable that
the reference TO Ia pass in General
kuropatkin's dispatch meant "Dal
