Excepting for Few Private Wireless Messages No News Received
 From the Outside.

The United States military cable is still down near Sitka and up to the time of going to press nothing had been heard regarding the cable re- pair ship Burnside. As the vessel had undergone $25O,OOO worth of repairs, it is thought that the ship was in shape to start out immediately to splice the break in the cable.
 The Canadian line, belonging to our cousins across the border, is also out of commission, as the recent heavy snowfall has broken the line in a million places-more or less. The Ca nadians spend most of the time re- pairing breaks in their line and when the cable is out of commission news paper men in Alaska spend consid- erablee time swearing at the govern ment, the Burnside and the elements, while the rest of the time is spent in figuring on how we will be able to pay the Canadian tolls at the end
 
 of the month.
 The cable line built by the Unit ed States War department from Seat tie to Alaska is made of American cable. It was the first American-built cable. The congress of the United States, when it passed the appropria- tion for the cable, tackled on pro- visio that it must be of American manufacture. The War department was therefore compelled to take a brand of cable never tested before and paid price at which the Trenton Wire company lost nothing. They were the only bidders. English cable is considered the best made, as the manufacturers of England have had years of experience. The Valdez ca ble was made by a concern which had never manufactured cable before and went into the business for the sole purpose of securing the one order. Since that time American manufac. turers have entered the field of ca. ble manufacture and much better cable. is now furnished.

A war veteran went back to the small town home of his boyhood to attend a banquet given by the old boys. The diners were all men 9le had known as youngsters. He ex- pected them to talk over old times. Instead, one talked necessarily about his bad liver, another dis coursed on his weak heart, third had lot to say about his kidney trouble, and SO it went. When the veteran returned to his home he was asked how he enjoyed the ban quet. Banquet" he replied, show ing vexation. "It wasn't banquet :; it was an organ recital. Buffalo Commercial. %

EUROPE AND THE PANAMA-PACl
 FIG EXPOSITION.

Whether Great Britain and Ger many will take part officially in the Panama-Pacific International Exposi- tion, to be held at San Francisco ill 1915, is still uncertain. James D. Phe- Ian, former mayor of San Francisco, who has returned from Europe, where he went as representative of the United States, is hopeful that public sentiment in those countries will ov- erturn an alleged agreement to boy colt exposition. He reports that the chairman of the semi-of1icial Per manent Propositions committee of Germany, who reported against par ticipation, has been forced to resign, which is significant of change in sentiment. An independent commit tee of intending exhibitors has been formed both in Germany and in Great Britain, Herr Ballin, president of the Hamburg American line, being at the head of the committee in Germany. and Lord Strathcona being at the head of the committee in Great Brit ain. The Board of Trade in England is still Investigating the matter and convassing the manufacturers who are members. The board first decided not to participate, but dissatisfaction caused the subject to be reopened. MT. Phelan says the foreign office gave him to understand that if the Board of Trade changed its mind, the government would not stand in the way of participation.
 There have been assertions and de- nials that the attitude of Great Brit ain and Germany was due to the favor shown American coastwise shipping in the Panama canal tolls. MT. Phe- Ian makes t'e direct statement that their attitude grew out of the Panama canal tolls. 'I learned through con fidential diplomatic sources" he says, that the foreign offices of the two governments had made an agreement not to participate in the proposed worlds fair. This was because of the dissatisfaction felt by these two great maritime nations against the canal toll discriminations in favor of Amer ican coastwise shipping"
 Nevertheless, those countries will probably be represented, unofficially, if not officially, for they are coming to understand (which was not clear to them at first that it is to be a real international exposition and not a second-rate affair, and that many opportunities will be presented to study the probable changes in trade routes which will follow the compile tion of the c"nal.
 Russia and Greece have declined the invitation to take part. MT. Phe- Ian is happy to report that Spain will be we'll represented. This is as it should be, for Spain was the pioneer in Panama and California and the dis coverer of the Pacific ocean. Mani festly there will be profound interest in the exhibit of Spain, especially if it is illustrative of the part she took in the early history of the Western hemisphere.
