The Navy Department has completed
arrangements to flash around the world
a New Year time signal from the
Naval Observatory here via the new Ar

Potomac. The signal will be identical
with the daily noon signal sent via the
coast radio stations. Being sent via
the Arlington station, however, it will
have very much greater radius, and
it is hoped that it will cover the greater
part of the north Atlantic ocean, the
Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean sea.

Pacific coast.
The signal will begin about five min
utes before midnight December 81. and

observatory will be transmitted omit
ting one beat before each half minute,
five beats before each minute. except
the last one, and ten beats before the
final signal, which will occur exactly

WOULD UPBU1LD REPUBLIC.
Money Solicited by Spaniard for Use
in Overthrowing Monarchy.

Officials of the State Department and
the Spanish legation here learned to-
day that Spaniard, signing himself
Antonio Fares de Zuniga, and writing
from Guayaquil, Ecuador. is sending. to
this country requests for subscriptions
of money for the republican Spanish
party" whose declared purpose is to
overthrow the monarchy. He announces
that the script which he wishes his
readers to buy will be made good when
Spain has become republic. He says
he is authorized by a central committee
to raise 1OO,OO0,OO0 pesos.
The members of the Spanish legation
were amazed that Senior Zuniga re-
quests that the money be sent him
through the Spanish consuls, because
the agents and spies of the Spanish
monarchy, protected by the diplomats"
are likely to intercept it if sent by mail
or cablegram.
