Governments and capitalists looked
coldly upon the great outlay neces-

Experimentation. Thus, all of the ex-
petitions were recalled and the pro-
noting company dissolved. The irony
of fate made it possible for KEENAN,,
when he finally reached London, to
send a message by cable to friends
in America.

years ago the project was one of the

Had Not Worked Out Plan.
Just how the wires were to be car

of water separating the two CONT

but a series of floating buoys or
small ships, firmly anchored, was
thought to- offer a solution of the
problem. .

The enterprise advanced in due

tives were sent to St. Petersburg to
lay the plan before the Russian gov

sion to the extent of a tentative
agreement whereby the Car was to
order the construction of the Siber-
ian line whenever its practicability
was demonstrated by the American
promoters. Full permission was grant
ed for an American engineering par
ty to explore Eastern Russia and the
great Siberian wilds for the purpose
of locating a route and testing the
feasibility of maintaining telegraph
lines in that region.
