CABLE Is BEING REPLACED.
Cross River Line Will Be Properly
Marked With Signs.

The work of replacing the govern
ment cable to the north shore Of the
river is now under way and will be
finished within short time. The cable
was recently broken and 1900 feet Of it

not been in working order.
In the past the route of the cable
was not marked. but provision is being
made now to properly designate the
lire. Beacons viii be erected in the
channel and on them notices will be
posted notifying masters Of vessels to
drop anchor elsewhere. No more
trouble on this score is anticipated.

Bankers to Furnish the Nee
essary S4o,ooo,ooo.

WASHINGTON. April 26.-Payment by
the United States for the Panama canal
concessions and property will be made in a
few days, perhaps before the end of this
month. The subject was discussed at to-
days meeting of the Cabinet, but no de-
cision was necessary as the arrangements
practically have been completed for the
transfer of the property and the payment
OF the money. At the request of Attorney
General Knox, the War Department will
designate a suitable person on the isthmus
to receive property there for the United
States.
1t has been decided that the payments
shall be made in Paris. A syndicate of
French bankers will advance the $4,000, 900
necessary to liquidate the Indebtedness of
the United States to the canal company.
The money will be handed to the company
by Assistant Attorneys General Day and
Russell. who in Paris. The syndicate
will then draw directly on the United States
Treasury for the full amount it has ad-
vanced. This plan was adopted as the SIM
plest and most feasible proposed for the
transfer of the money.
