THE PACIFIC CABLE.
Details of Business Transacted During
Past Fiscal Year.


Past Fiscal Year.
An account relating to the working
of the Pacific Cable Act, with the re-
port of the Chairman of the Pacific
Cable Board, has been published as a
House of Commons paper. The report
says that the numbers of messages
and words transmitted during the year
1904-5 were approximately 177,96S and
2,056,953 respectively, of which 106,7S2
messages and 1,1S3,929 words were in
tercolonial. The audited traffic figures
for 1904 amounted to 176,S24 mes
sages and 2,097,S97 words, of which
10S,211 messages and 1899 1928 words
were inter-colonial The actual ex-
penditure of the Board on the service
of the cable during the ~ months end
ed March 3lst, 1905, amounted to $780,
ISL lis. 3D., against f54, 1924 los. Sd. in
the previous year. The total receipts
amounted to eS7 ,446 los. Sd. (including
a special item of f5, lis 15s. ON account
of repair services rendered by the 1ris)
against fs0,11s 13s. Sd. last year. The
surplus on actual working was, there
fore, f36,694 19s Cd. The Board, how
ever, set aside $4,000 for the renewal
fund, and they had also to provide a
sum of f77,544 1Ss. for interest and
sinking fund. This sinking fund will
extinguish in 80 years the entire CAPT
tai expenditure. Adding these pay
ments to the expenditure, the uefici-
ency on the year s operations amounts
to f75,S49 1ss. Cd, against fs7,751 As.
sd. in the previous year. This de-
fciency has to be made good by the
contributing governments. Although
in the year l904-5, the receipts were
swelled by the earnings of the Iris, an
item which cannot be expected to re-
cur, it is satisfactory to note that the
deficiency to be met by the contribut
ing governments in the second year OF
the cables working is less than the
annuity due on account of capital.

Thirty thousand two hundred pounds
of sisal went forward to the Coast on
the ALI. steamer Nebraska the prod
uct of the sisal company at Sisal, Ca
hu. This is one of the largest single
shipments made by the company.
The mill is working steadily and is
adequate to meet all demands upon 1t.
This product comes from the area ORR
ginally planted. There is a larger area
devoted to the increase of the sisal
plants, which, however, will not be
ready for some time to be turned into
sisal fiber OF the new area, sisal from
about 500 acres will be available be-
fore the end of the present year.
The company is also making three
qualities OF waste from the bagasse.
This is said to make up into first-class
material for mattresses and has one
superior quality in that it is absolute
ly hygienic.
The company recently received a
fresh sample of rough paper prepared

waste sent on for trial
The Hawaiian fiber is receiving top
notch prices from the TuDbs Cordage
Company. In fact, the Tubbs people
proclaim 1t to be the finest sisal they

topped the New York quotation by IS.
The raising OF sisal in Formosa is
to be tried. Experiments on a thir-
teen-acre plat there are being made
now with Bermuda plants. w. C.
Weldon of the local sisal company,
while in the Orient made overtures to
people in Formosa interested in sisal
production to lay out plantations for
them. He expects a definite reply in
short time. as to whether or not they
| require his services.
| Mark Robinson is said to be raising
sisal on Hawaii on about 400 acres of
land. So far the experiment is said
TO be quite successful

GENERAL INFORMATION.

On June 80, 1904, the floating debt
of the Territory was in round num-
bers $652, 900. BY June 30, 1905, this was
reduced TO $4,000. The estimated
revenue for the biennial period end
ing June 80, 1907, is s3,160,000, against
which there are appropriations amount-
ing. to $2,973, 531.2S, leaving an estimat-
ed surplus of s1S6 1882 for the further
reduction of the floating debt 1t is
the aim of the Carter administration.
however, by judicious economies, to
make greater liquidation. Oahu coun-
ty has received from the Territory
SS5, 900 for its August bills, an increase
over the previous months allowance.
Other counties have been proportion
ately favored. Governor Carter, when
in Washington, through the active in
termediary of President Roosevelt OBJ
