CONNECTION DELAYED.
Much!''

The Pikeville connection with the
long distance power line now being
built by the Consolidation Coal Co,
from Jenkins to Van Lear via Bea-
yer creek will not be made before
the latetr part of the winter or early
spring. The connection was to have
been made by Dec. 18th, and the
high-yoltage current distributed to
Pikeville consumers through sub
station which was intended to have
taken the place of the present pow
er plant here; but these arrange
ments having failed, the plant now
in use will continue to supply the
city.
The magnificent electrical power
stations at jenkins and Van Lear
were originally designed by Mr.. Ey-
erett brennan, the present general
manager of the entire Eastern Ken
lucky operations of the Consollda-
ton Co. brennan is one of the fore
most electrical engineers TO America,
and 1t was while acting as consult
ing engineer for his company, prior
10 being made manager with head
quarters at jenkins, that the plans
for the Van Lear plant, also the
millio dollar plant at Jenkins, were
designed by him. In building the
6b-mile line, Mr.. brennan has
thought it advisable to abandon the
Pikeville branch for the present, IN
order to the sooner complete the
main line to the immense coal OPP
erations on lower Beaver to delly-'
or power to them. But little thine is
to be saved by either plan.

Board to Consider
Nicaraguan Treaty

Interest is keen in the meeting of the
Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
tomorrow. The committee is expected
then to resume consideration of the
Nicaragua treaty. and it is probable
there will also be discussion of the
Mexican situation.
Members of the Foreign Relations
Committee by a large majority favor the
Nicaraguan protectorate. But they are
at sea over Mexico. The mediation pro-
posal meets with favor if II can be car
ried out, but there is general skeptIcism
whether the factions in Mex.eo, hating
one another. will have anything to do
with IL.
Many believe that about the only
good end of a proffer of mediation
would be to indicate to the world. and
especially 10 Latin-America, that this
country did not want to intervene and
was seeking genuinely to extend to
Mexico its good offices.
Senator H.tchcoCk's plan for anneXa-
ton of Sonora and Chihuahua as COM
pensation for American losses has at
tracted much notice. 1t is not a new
proposition. As a mater of fact, espe-
cially in the Southwest, there has been
much talk OF annexation of a part o:
northern Mexico. This would suit the
people OF Il e Southwest exactly. be-
cause II would open 10 them rich mining
and ranching regions. Moreover. there
is naval sentiment for IL, because II
there should be annexation of a part OF
Mexico the proba bilities are that Mag
dalena bay would be included in II.
