Mr.. Wood, as secretary OF the com

mir. n. H. Slaughter. resident en-
gineer of the Marconi Wireless Tel
/ egraph company of America, has re-
lauested me to ascertain whether or
mot the delegates of the .inter-island
civil convention would care to visit
the receiving station of the Marconi
/ Company, now in course of erection at
Koko Head, this island.
,'fInasmuch as the tknpletion OF
this important work will revolution
lie communication with the United
States as well as with the Orient,
and as the station is located in a
rather unvisited and interesting sec
ton of Oahu, it might be that many
of the delegates would avail them
selves Of an opportunity to be per-
Lsenaiiy conducted over the plant
while the senGing station of the
company located at Kahuku, this isl
and, is of even greater magnitude
than the receiving Of the Koko head
plant. the construction at the former
site has not reached a point as yet
where comprehensive idea of the
same could be arrived at; otherwise,
| it could have been arranged to have
the delegates stop over at Kahuku on
their round-the-island trip. We believe
however, the SKoko Head plant will
prove both interesting and instruc-
