SOUTH SEA WIRELESS.

The United States Consul at Tahiti
sends the following information in re-
gard to a network of wireless teIe-
graphy, which it is proposed to establish
among the scattered islands of the
Pacific Ocean: Capitalists who ara
interested in the extensive phosphate
operations on Ocean and Pleasant Is
lands of the Gilbert group, and in the
new works about to be established ON
the island of Makatea OF the Tuamotu
Archipelago, have recently bogus
movement to connect nearly all tho
groups of islands in the South Pacific
by system of wireless telegraphy- 1t
is proposed to include in this system the
Commonwealth of Australia, the Domin-
ion of New Zealand, the Fijis, the New
Hebrides, the Solomon, Samoan, Cook,
Society, and Marquesas islands, and the
phosphate islands of Ocean, Pleasant,
and Makatea. 1t is expected that the
various governments having possessions
in the South Pacific will aid in the
establishment Of the proposed system.
Negotiations have already proceeded so
far that the success of the efforts seems
to be almost assured As the nearest
available ocean cable office TO Tahiti Is
at Auckland, $3.50 miles away, irons
which a steamship Of the Union Line Of
New Zealand arrives at Papeete once
every twenty-eight days, and a direct
communication by a steamship Of the
Oceanic Company with San Francisco,
365S miles distant, is had once in every
thirtysix DAYS, it will be understood
how deeply Interested the French colony
Of Tahiti and its dependencies are in the
complete success of these negotiations.
Other groups Of islands are equally in.
terested in the establishment Of this
system, which means so much 20 the
inhabitants of these widely separated
archipelagOes The name Of the pro-
posed company is the Pacific Islands
Radio-Telegraph Co. Of the proposed
capital Of 10000 (s340.OOO). the
owners Of the phosphate deposits on
Ocean and Pleasant islands have sub
scribed 10000 In this radial system
there will probably be ten or twelve
circles, the largest having a radius OF
1850 miles. and requiring for each
station an engine of so horsepower. It

Tehuantepec Railway.
The Tehuantepec Railway says the
Shipping Gazette, is becoming more
serious factor in the traffic of the new
world. Quite recently small cargo of
garbanzos was shipped from Guaymas
to Salina Cruz, thence to Puerto Mexico
by the Tehuantepec National Railroad,
where the Royal Mail Steam Packet
Company s SAILOR was waiting to load
them for Spain. 1t is true the loading
at Puerto Mexico left much to be de-
sired from the point of view of
despatch, but no doubt the railway will
improve when they get into their stride
However, taken all round, the way in
which this first lot of garbanzos was
handled by the Tehuantepec National
Railroad reflects great credit upon the
organization of that company and OF
the ROYAL Mail Steam Packet Com
pany, which has now been running for
two years to Cuba and Mexico from
Southampton, Newcastle and Antwerp.
