CABLE LINES TO ALASKA.
An Extension to Be Laid by the
burnside

Commercial receipts from the Alaskan ca
BILE and telegraph lines amounted to $24, 600
in July, which is $1,000 in excess of the
amount collected by the United States in
any previous month. The official dis
patches sent during the month would have
cost $40. 600 had they been paid for at the
commercial rates. This rapid increase in
the demands upon the Alaskan cable and
telegraph system will be met by the gov
eminent by the duplexing of the cable.
The cable ship Burnside, which is to in
stall the duplexing apparatus at the Alas
kan end. of the cable, will probably leave
Seattle about September Is. 1t will carry
200 miles of new cable which has just been
shipped from New York for the extension
of the cable service south to Ketchikan.
This extension will be effected by tapping
shaw. From that point a branch line will
be extended down to Wrangell, then to
Hadley, on Prince of Wales Island. and
thence to Ketchikan, which is only sixty
miles from Port Simpson, the English town
which is to be the terminus of the Grand
Trunk Pacific railway.
1t Is believed that this additional 200
miles of cable will result in a great increase
in cable receipts, the new feeder taps a
country which is rich In mines and fisheries
and already has many large canning fac
communication with the United States In
case the cable ship does not encounter bad
weather the new line will probably be COM
pleted before November /. Capt Henry W.
Stamford of the Signal Corps will direct
the laying Of the new line.

MORE ROOM FOR WORKERS.
Clearing Out the Bureau Of Educa-
tons Library.

A large part of the bureau of education s
collection of models casts and other ma
terial not Immediately needed is being
packed for storage, with a view to getting
more room in the library where there is an
increasing amount of work being done.
1t is not generally known among Wash
ingtonians, at least those outside of prac-
teal educational circles, but the bureau of
education has a specialized library that is
one of the finest in the world. 1t deals
entirely with educational matters. and, in
addition to the other volumes, there is an
school laws and regulations. the catalogues
of colleges, schools and universities. Most
of these are American, of course, but there
are good many from abroad.
BY act of Congress, the libraries of the
departments. and each of the departments
has library, or several Of them, OF its
own. which are made available for stu
dents, and a good many of the colleges and
higher institutions of learning are awaiting
themselves of the privilege and sending
their students and other workers to con-
suit these valuable collections. Several OF
the out-of town universities have sent their
graduate students to Washington to use the
government Libraries in preparing their
theses. There have been several OF the
Johns Hopkins men over from Baltimore,
one of them now working on material that
he has been collecting at the library OF the
bureau of education for about a year.
1t is with view to accommodating more
workers and making the library more
is in progress, and when the collection Is
rearranged there will be considerably more
working space and the collection of books
will become more fully known for what it
ought to be, namely one of the most i'm
portant, If not the most important, educa-
tional libraries in the country.

CHURCH SEPARATION LAW.
French Statesman Says It Will Be
Enforced,


Enforced.
M. BRAND. minister of public worship
granted the correspondent of the New York
Times a short conversation last night in
Paris. after his return from the cabinet
council. which considered the pope's atti-
tude toward the separation law.
M BRAND said the law would be car
ried into execution as 1t stood. The gov
eminent would not go to Canossa and there
would be no negotiations behind the scenes.
At the same time the government would
take care to have no martyrs. There
would be no necessity to repeat the expert
ment Of the forcfble taking of church in
ventories. 1t was not to be anticipated
that any attempt would be made to close
the churches by force.
The first effect of the failure to consti-
tute public worship associations within
the prescribed time would be the seques-
tration of the different kinds of church
property in France. This would be done
by the automatic action of law and would
not necessitate the employment of force.
M. BRAND does not believe however, that
the French bishops are prepared to make
such an immense material sacrifice. What
they and the pope have done up to the
present is to save their face. When the
time comes for action he expects they
will find means of conforming to the law.
There Is not the slightest chance Of any
French government consenting to a re-
vision of the law. Such a contingency
might be conceivable on the eve of a gen.
eral election and in the presence Of an
electorate whose attitude toward the sepa-
ration Of church and state was doubtful,
but as things stand anything of the kind
is utterly impossible and a government
suspected of any tendency toward such a
compromise with Rome would at once be
swept out Of existence by the chamber.

BLOWING OUTOF A PIPE
EXPLOSION AT POTOMAC ELEC-
TRIO coMPANY's PLANT.
Street Car Traffic Interrupted - One
Fireman Injured-Elevators Stop
ped Running, Lights Out.

As the result Of an explosion in the boiler
room of the plant of the Potomac Electric
Power Company. 14th and B streets. short
ly after o'clock this morning, all the cleo
trio light and power supplied by that COM
pany east of Rock creek was off for an
hour At $50 o'clock the plant resumed
operation.
Oscar F. Crawley. colored, thirty-seven
years of age of 1896 10th street, fireman.
was struck on the head by brick, receiv-
ing severe scalp wound. He was as
sisted to the Emergency Hospital for treat
ment. Later Crawley was able to go to
his home.
The accident was caused by the blowing
out of pipe, about four inches long, in
what is technically known as the super
heater in one of the boilers In the long
tier. The tier extends through til. plant
from 1914 street to 18th street. Fellow
ing the explosion steam filled tine boiler
room, and the twelve men employed there
sCalded.
Was Stirring Up Fire.
At the time of the explosion Fireman
Hardy was at the door of the boiler stirring
up the fire. The superheater in the boiler
carries $50 pounds of pressure. The pres
sure at the time was approaching that
mark Without warning a section of pipe
about four feet long and about six inches
in diameter blew over the top of the boiler.
Bricks from the masonry construction
around the boiler, ashes from the firebox
and burning hunks Of coal were scattered
about the room.
Hardy was not seriously injured. his es-
cape being regarded as miraculous. Craw-
ley was taking drink of water, fully
forty feet from the boiler, when struck by
the brick. A. Schley. a water tender, was
struck by bricks and was blown through
doorway in which he was standing. He
was able to return to work.
A telephone message was sent to No.
engine company as a matter of precaution,
but no fire resulted.
Plant Shut Down.
AS soon as the accident occurred the
street car lines of the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company east of Rock
Creek were affected, as were many ele-
vators and the lighting service in the bust
ness section of the city. Hundreds of gov
essary to walk to work. and the mount
ing Of stairways because the elevators were
out of service was necessary.
c. L. Heath, chief engineer Of the plant,
reached the scene a short time after the
accident. He at once put a force to work
ing the plant. Efforts were made during
the Gay to clean out the fire in the boiler
where tie explosion occurred and to allow
1t to crol.
The accident occurred not more than five
feet from the scene Of the explosion in the
boiler room Of the plant about year ago.
At that time a steam conduit pipe burst
This accident was not similar, as it &C.
Cured inside on" OF the boilers while the
other was in pre- outside Of the boilers.

Mcclellan Criticised Berlin.

Mayor Mcclellan of New York is having a
strenuous time in Berlin, investigating mu-
ncipal conditions and visiting the museums,
picture galleries. &c. Yesterday afternoon
he saw the new cathedral, but was not at
all impressed by the emperor's pet building.
Mr.. Mcclellan is more than ever convinced
that municipal ownership is failure. He
remarked that the rapid transit system
there was not rapid, as one often had to
wait ten minutes for a car. Some one then
told him the subway system in Berlin was
under private control. Mayor Mcclellan
says the streets Of Berlin are no cleaner
than those elsewhere, and not SO clean as
those of Paris He thinks the roads at
Potsdam are as bad as the country roads
around New York.

DISMISSED FROM SERVICE.
President Approves Findings in Case

The President has approved the findings
of the court-martial dismissing from the
naval service Midshipman Robert A. jack
son. This midshipman entered the acad-
envy in 1901 and had completed his four
years course and was undergoing the Gus
tomary service of two years at sea. He
was charged with being absent from duty
on board the Missouri without leave and
convicted. This is the second time that
he had been convicted of the same offense,
his disappearance the first time being
somewhat sensational and amusing, as he
was lost for several days Clemency was
exercised in the first case, but dismissal
was prompt upon the second offense.

cubans Mutiny Over Food Treatment

Half company of rural guards stationed
at the castle of La Fuerza, on duty as
palace guards, at Havana yesterday, re-
fused to obey their officers on the ground
that the food furnished them was INSULT
cient and the conduct of their captain
harsh. The latter drew his sword and
struck a soldier, wounding him in the arm.
The mans comrades became noisy and
threatening but were quieted by the arri-
val of the presidents adjutant from the
palace. The unruly detachment was then
taken to Camp Columbia and replaced by
other guards The commissary arrange
ments have been improved. The insubordi-
nate guardsmen deny the imputation of
disloyalty and say they simply struck for
better treatment.

Failure

indigestion is largely due to the old theory
that when the stomach becomes inactive 1t needs
something to mechanically digest its contents, and
cathartics. purgatives ETC., used, which give
only temporary relief, because they digest by irri
tating the lining Of the stomach.
Modern science recognizes the fact that 1t is the
nerves that furnish motive power to digest the
contents Of the stomach.
The nerves agitate and mix the food, and stimu-
late the secretions. When they become weakened
they lack energy, and indigestion, dyspepsia, sour
stomach result.
