AMERICAN CABLE.
New York to Be Connected With
Canal Zone.
Both Ends and Middle on United
States Soil.
SAVES 1000 MILES.
In Communicating With Pacific
Coast of South America.
VIII Be Used by Military and
Naval Authorities.

New York. June ga beginning will
be made tomorrow in laying a new
cable, the middle and both ends of
which will rest on American soil. The
cable will also be the first one from
this port to Colon, in the Panama canal
zone. The Colonia, the largest cable
Steamship in the world, will leave the
lower harbor tomorrow to start laying
it. There are 1928 nautical miles of
rubber and armored cable slowed away
in three big tanks of the vessel, and
overheard it will be dropped at the rate
of 180 knots a day.
According to Captain Harold Wood
cock, the Colonia's commander who is
a veteral in cable laying, Guantanamo
is where the first section of the cable
will end. It is 1,498 knots from here
and it is planned that the end will be
landed on July In the reservation set
apart by the United States military
authorities for that purpose. Then the
Colonia will make run of 808 knots to
Colon, where the final land station will
be Established. The date set for the
cable ships arrival there is July IA.
The cable will be laid for the Mexican
Central and Southern American Gable
company, SO as to save 1000 miles of
land lines now in use in Mexico so that
the company's communication with the
west coast of South America will be
facilitated. 1t will be used incidentally
as a strategic cable by the United
States military and naval authorities.

FUNSTON GLAD OF 1T.
Abandonment of the Parade Is the
Best Way Out.

San Francisco, June 26.-The Bulletin
today prints a statement from General
Frederick Funston, in reference to cor
respondence between himself and the
Fourth of July committee regarding
the parading of troops on the Fourth of
July, in which General Funston is
quoted as saying:
"I understand that there was much
dissension in the Fourth of July COM
mittee in regard to my letter. There are
many estimable men in the organization
but for blatherskites I don't care a
whoop in h.
I'm the stand I have taken L have
the support of all the better class of
citizens. 1 meant no attack on the labor
union portion of the population; in fact,
I am personally in favor of the unions,
as / think with the great moneyed in
terests banded together the working
men must organize for their own protec-
tion. 1t would be from this class that
trouble would come, but as sure as reg
ular soldiers were to appear on the
streets they would be insulted. I am
glad there will be no parade. 1t Is the
easiest way out of the difficulty.
"One more indication of the present
disorderly condition: In all the time
have been stationed here have had no
difficulty. Within the past two months

Western WooIen Mills to Resume
Operations Then.

The Western Woolen mill will re-
sumo operations July 1st under new
management.
For the past two years the North
Topeka Woolen mill has been oper-
ated at a loss. On May oath a stock
holders meeting was called to decide
what was the best thing to do to pro-
tect the interests of its owners. At
this meeting 1t was agreed to shut the
mill down and advertise the plant for
sale. Negotiations were at once
started with the owners of the Oak
land mill which resulted as follows:
w. T. and E. H. Crosby, o. w. Neil
and J. F. McAfee, who have operated
the Oakland mill for the past year
very successfully, decided that it
to buy at least part of the stock as
the Oakland mill had more orders
than it could fill and on Saturday,
June 22nd, the deal was closed.
There will be but few changes in
the official board. w. T. and E. H.
Crosby and o. w. Neil will be added
to the directory. J. F. McAfee will be
general manager with o. w. Neil as
assistant. M c. Holman will retain
his present position and will be
elected one of the officers of the COM
pany a position taken away from him
two years ago.
The Western Woolen mill was built
and equipped for the purpose of max
ing pants. Shortly after Mr.. Heddle
took charge two years ago he shut
down the pants department and since
that time the mill has been making
cashmere which have been sold by
the bolt direct to the cutters.
The new management has decided
to reinstal1 the pants business and
run the mill as it was originally run
under the management of ]. F. Nc
Afee.
On about Sept. 1st the pants depart
ment will be started and the incom-
ing and outgoing of the operators of
this department will again be wit
messed by the residents of the North
side much to their pleasure and salts
faction as we'll as the operators.
Starting the pants department will
require 35 to 40 people more than is
necessary to run the mill on cassi-
meres and will also require quite a
number of travelling men as the pro-
duction of the mill will be sold direct
to the merchant.

BURROW in A BANK.
Former Secretary of State Buys Big
Block Central National Stock.

J. r. Burrow, former secretary of

stock in the Central National bank of
this city, and it is announced will be-
come a director of the bank.
Mr.. Burrows stock is part of that
owned by Charles j. DevIin, but Mr..
Burrow says that he has not purchased
enough of the stock to give him con-
trolling interest in the bank.
"I do not expect to be an officer of
the bank" said Mr.. Burrow, nor to
take an active part in managing its af-
fairs. I bought the stock because L
believed it would be a good investment,
Just as I have bought stock in other
banks. This purchase does not mean
that I expect to live here in Topeka,
any more than the purchase of the
Popenoe house means that I expect to
Iieve here. I considered the Popenoe
house a bargain, and bought it for that
reason. But L do not expect to engage
in any active business pursuits for a
year or so, at least
