The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1912-07-19

Besides the conections Honolulu will
have with San Francisco and Guam,
Mr.. Sammis says, preliminary plans
are now being carried on with the
government to secure site at Colon
on the Isthmus of Panama, but that
this is not yet assured. If the com
pany is unable to get the site at Colon
he says a place as near to Panama as
possible will be purchased and then
Honolulu will be connected with that
station. From Panama, or the station
near there, a direct line through Ha-
vana, Cuba, on to New York City
will be operated. Negotiations are
also on to have a site in New Zealand.
The company has not a penny's worth
of stock to sell. 1t has the sum of 81
000, 900 in cash raised to establish the
chain of stations around the world and
will build the stations and pay cash for
every site they get and all the work
connected with them. AS to the com
mercial side of the immense undertake
ing Mr.. SammIs says his company has
a working agreement with the Western
Union Telegraph Company by which
that company agrees to extend to the
Marconi company the facility of ev-
cry one of its $4,000 offices in the
United States and Canada. The vest
ern Union has also agreed to display
the printed literature of the Marconi
company and accept marconigrams to
any part of the world in connection
with the cables of the Western Union
company. He says wireless messages
messages are now accepted by the
Western Union in New York at the
rate of seventeen cents word, two.
thirds the cable rate, for any part of
the world.

working Agreement.

While here Mr.. Sammis has made a
working agreement with j. A. Balch,
secretary and treasurer of the Mutual
Telephone Company and superintendent
of the wireless department, which he
says will prove mutually. benenIcial to
both companies, The present rate of
the cable here, he says, will be reduced
probably as much as two-thirds the
present rate.
Mr.. Sammis has been inspecting sites
for the Honolulu stations for the past
several days and upon the completion
of his work here will leave for San
Francisco where he will select the site
for the plant in that city. He VIII then
return to his headquarters in New
York. He is warm personal friend
of Mr. Marconi and has been associated
with him in wireless telegraphy for the
past eleven years, since its start in
America.
Mr.. Sammis highly commended the
success of the present wireless system
between the Hawaiian Islands yester.
day and stated that credit for the good
system is largely due to the work of
Mr.. Balch.
"Talling up the work now beng
done in foreign countries for this
world system, ! will say that we have
made contract with the English gov
ernment for six stations, costing 5000.
600 each, exclusive of the land or build
ings," said Mr.. Sammis. 'For pc
riod of twentyeight years we are to
receive ten per cent. of the gross re-
| ceipts. We viii have one station at
London from London to Egypt; at a
point near Alexandria there will be
another station, and then the line will
/ extend to Alden on the Red Sea where
another plant will be built. From Alden
the wireless will be operated to India
at Bangalore, then on to the Singapore
station, where the line will connect
with the first of the American chain of
stations at Manila, from which mes.
sages will be transmitted to Guam and
thence to Honolulu.

:" As the distance from Manila to Ho.
nolulu is 1000 miles this is too long for
the best working of the wireless, so II
is probable the station will be erected
at Guam TO break the distance. It
is possible for us to send messages
