WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.—The effect of wireless telegraphy on the future of the | submarine cable was developed to some extent to-day by the House Committee on Commerce in connection with the hearing on the proposed Pacific cable. The hearing was largely attended. Vice President Ward of the Pacific Ca- ble Company continued his statement of yesterday. He said he believed that the | company he represented would be able 0 make exclusive traffic arrangements from points beyond the Philippines and con- necting with Ghina and Japan. He main- tained that while there Was no purpose to | set up a monopoly, yet it was likely his company would bave exclusive traftic ar- rangements with the Far East. He also stated that there would be questions us to the rigat of the United States to land a cable on foreign shores. Représentative Stewart of New Jersey interposed tne statement that Germany's | present course against Venezuela snowed inat the German Government made littie aistincuon between pubuc and private rights, so that a Government cabie sta- LoD WOuld Lave ADOUL Lhe same status as a pnivate station.

He Was not sure tnac the raciuc cabie Project Would nave been undertaken if the iUNg-QiStance experi- ments had been held eariier. As to the claims that wireless signais had been con- veyed 2w miles across the Atiantic, Ward sau that If tne clauns were made good tney would deter people Irom laying any more cabies. When asked as to tue ef- zect thus 1ar on the cable business, Ward sa.d it had depressea cable interests. Stewart wanted to know i the “cable companies had not chase. Marconi out 0. Canada,” to ==i-- Ward answered that he beiieved the cable companies nad insisted upon certain exclusive rights tney held. James foord stated that the Asiatic As- soclation, doing business in_ the Orient, favored private control. It was opposed to the Government entering the field of private enterprise. President Scrymser of the South and Central American cable | system made an extended argument fa- vorable to (Government control of the Pa- cific cable, citing incidents of the Span- ish-American war showing the impor- tance of governmental control of the ca- ble. In one case cited the Spanish Min- ister of Marine cabled Admiral Cervera to leave Santiago. If this dispatch had not been intercepted, Scrymser said, the battle of Santiago Bay would not have been fought and the conduct of the war | might have been changed. Thomas E. Hughes, representing an American company which produces cable, stated that as good cables could be made in the United States as in any other part | of the world, and he asked that American labor and capital have the advantage of doing this work. Chairman Hepburn asked if this American company was pre- pared to make a definite business propo- | sition to the United States Government. Hughes replied that such a_proposition would be submitted in due form within the next two days. Hepburn asked that the formal proposition be in alternative form—first, for delivering a cable of American make at 8an Franclsco; second, for making and laying the cable to Ha- wall, Guam and Manila. Hughes thought the Government better able to do its own cable-laying, using the ariny transports. As indicating the general character of the forthcoming proposition, Hughes said the cost would be within 10 per cent of that stated as the cost of the Pacific Commercial Company’s cable. The addi- tional 10 per cent, he stated, was for the protection of American industry. Francis B.

WILL SEEK' TO ADVANCE : UTILITARIAN LEARNING Carnegie Institution’s Founder Lays Broad Plans for the Future—Judge Morrow a Trustee. el LR HE Pacific Coast, and especially California, may be congratulated on the personnel of the board of trustees chosen by Andrew Carne- gie to direct the affairs of the Carnegie Institution at Washington, for which the steel magnate has just given | $10,000,000. President Daniel C. Gilman, one of the trustees and Mr. Carnegie's most trusted adviser on matters pertaining to this foundation, is in sympathy with Cali- fornia thought and interests, having been president of the University of California before he went East to make Johns Hop- kins great. D. O. Mills, though accred- fted to New York in the geographical distribution of the trusteeships, knows California and her people. The particular representative of the coast, however, is Judge W. W. Morrow of the United States Circuit Court. The appointment was an eminently fitting one as well as a marked honor to California and to the appointee. Judge MOITow's judicial duties brings him into close touch with the people of all the vast territory of his circuit, which includes California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, Alaska and the Hawalian Islands. In his travels from city to city where the Circuit Court convenes he meets the leaders of the bar, prominent educators and the men who are advancing the material prosper- ity of the Pacific Coast States. Few men would have so good an opportunity as he to become truly representative of this western empire on the board of trustees of the new institution of learning. Judge Morrow Makes Reply. Judge Morrow received Mr. Carnegle's invitation to become a trustee of the Car- negle Institution two weeks ago. He re- plied that he was in hearty sympathy with the purposes of the proposed founda- tion and felt honored by appointment to the board of trustees. He formally ac- cepted and pledged himself to give every service required of him to advance the interests of the institution. The reply of Judge Morrow was prob- ably the last to reach Mr. Carnegie, on account of the distance, for immediately upon its receipt last Wednesday Mr. Car- e —————————————— ADVERTISEMENTS. Heart Disease Ninety Per Cent of It Really Caused From Poor Digestion. Real organic heart trouble is' incurable, but scarcely one case in a hundred is organie. The action of the heart and stomach are both controlled by the same-great nerves, the sympa- thetic and pneumogastric, and when the stom- ach fails to properly digest the food and it les in the stomach fermenting, gases are formed which distend the organ, causing pressure on the heart and lungs, causing palpitation, ir- regularity and shortness of breath. The danger from this condition is that the continued disturbance of the heartssooner or later may cause real organic heart trouble and in fact frequently does so. Furthermore, poor digestion makes the blood thin and watery and deficlent in red corpuscles, and this further irritates and weakens the eart. The most sensible thing to do for heart trouble is to insure the digestion and assimila- tion of the food. This can be done by the regular use after meals of some safe, pleasant and effective di- gestive preparation, like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may be found at most drug stores and_ Which contain the necessary diges.. tive elements in a pleasant, convenient form., Thousands of people keep well and vigorous by keeping their digestion perfect by observing the rule of taking one or two of these tablets after each meal, or at least after each hearty | 'y, gases an he many diseased conditions which accom; @ weak stomach. 58 ‘When Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are used you man know you are not taking into the sys- tem any strong medicine or powerful drug, but simply the natural digestive elements Which every weak stomach lacks. widely known and popular have these tab- lets become that they arc mow sold by every aBr;g‘sut in the United States, Canada and Great n. a y o A CALIFORNIA JURIST CHOSEN A TRUSTEE OF THE CARNE~ GIE INSTITUTION. * T TR negie announced the complete board of trustees. The men chosen by the philanthropist to direct the affairs of the institution repre- sent a remarkable diversity of walks in life and a careful geographical distribu- tion. There is an eminent educator, a diplomat, a Senator, a Supreme Court Justice, a Circuit Judge, a great surgeon, men great in various departments of in- dustry, and so on through the list, with scarcely two men whose lives have fol- lowed similar channels. The eminence of the men selected gives guarantee of able management. Mutual acquaintance, also, will insure the early attainment of har- monijous action in the board itself. Knows All But Four Trustees. Judge Morrow, the farthest away of any of the trustees, 1is personally ac- quainted_ with all but four of them, Charles L. Hutchinson, Henry L. Higgin- son, Willilam N, Frew and Henry Hitch- cuctk being the only members he has not met. The first meeting of the trustees will be held January 29 in Washington. Judge Morrow will attend. ¥He expects to leave for Washington soon after the-wedding, next Wednesday, of his- daughter, Miss Eleanor Morrow, and Lieutenant Roose- velt of the United States marine corps. The Carnegie Institution is not to be a university. Its founder desires to pro- mote original research and the application of new thought to the advancement of sclence, art and industry.- The practical, the material, is apparently to be given more prominence than is learning for learning’s sake. In this fact the edu- cators, who have been leaders in the movement for a Washington memorial university, find reason for the hope that the Carnegle Institution will not usurp the field, but will leave room for a great national university commemorative of the father of his country, to which the schol- ars of the country will flock for the best that America has to offer in the various departments of pure sclence, art and let- ters.

Another Vessel Will Leave for ths Islands to Search for Her. : Miseing Craft Is Known to Have Encountered Heavy Gales After Sailing From Esquimalt. 4 Epecial Dispatch to The Call. VICTORIA, B, C, Jan. 1.—H. M. B. Condor, which sailed from Bsquimalt for Honolulu and the south on December 2 is overdue at Homnolulu. here are grave fears for the safety of thé warship, which; must have encountered the heavy storms that caused such damage to Pacific Coast shipping In the past six weeks. She left in company with the Warspite, the flag- ship of this station, and the collier Mat- teawan, which salled on the same day from Nanaimo with 4830 tons of coal. The ‘Warspite reached San Diego on schedule time, but nothing has since been heard of either the Matteawan or the Condor. The naval officlals at Esquimalt are considerably worried over the Condor’s non-arrival at the islands. She had not been heard of when the last mail advices were received via San Francisco on Jan- uary 3, and if no word is received by the steamer Moana, which is to leave the islands on Wednesday next, H. M. S. Phaeton, which {s being repaired and rapidly got ready, will leave for the south to seek information regarding the miss- ing vessel. The explanation for her non-arrival given at Esquimalt is that she has prob- ably run short of coal and has made the voyage to Honolulu under sail. Even if this be the case, she should have made the passage in less than thirty-two days and should have arrived under sail before January 3, as the bark Hesper, which sailed from Vancouver on November 30 and passed out to sea the following day, arrived at the island port in distress on January 2. @ it @ LEAVES [SLAND IN WOODEN BOX Frank Holt, a Prisoner on Alcatraz, Makes His Escape. Frank Holt, a trusty at Alcatraz, serv- ing thirteen years for desertion, cleverly escaped from the island yesterday morn- ing in a large wooden box. Edward P. Timmons, who was released from Alca- traz about the time that Holt escaped, is being detained by the local police as an | accomplice. To accomplish his escape, Holt forged the name of Charles Zuschlag, a private in charge of the stables, tc an order for the removal of the box in which he con- cealed himself to the Government boat McDowell, which was lying alongside the island. 1t is thought that after the box was Pplaced aboard the boat Holt crawled into 1t and did not emerge from his place of concealment until the vessel neared the Clay-streét wharf. As he was dressed in a soldier's uni- form he experienced no difficulty in aughting from the boat along with a number of soldiers who were on a visit to this city. The box in which Holt made his escaj was made of boards picked up about the island. The top was so arranged with leather straps that it could be opened from the inside. To preclude the possi- bility of detection Hoit printed the name of S. N. Wood & Co., well known cloth- fers, Market street, on the top of the box. Thinking it was consigned to Wood & Co., the corporal who was supervising the loading of the boat allowed it to pass without making an investigation. Shortly after the McDowell left the isl- and the prisoners were lined up and counted, and as one, who proved to be Holt, was missing a thorough search for him was made. It was not until the boat returned to the island and the empty box examined that the manner of Holt's escape from the military prison was dis- covered. Word was at once sent to Cap- taln Seymour, who detailed Detectives Hammill and Crockett to find the escaped prisoner. Accompanied by Private Zuschlag and Corporal Frazier the de- tectives searched a number of water front resorts, but without getting a clew to Holt's whereabouts. Timmons, who is believed to be Hoilt's accomplice, was found, however, and taken to police head- quarters. When questioned he_ at first denied that he was aware that Holt had escaped, but finally admitted that he knew he had concealed himself in the box before the McDowell left Alcatraz. “I did not want to inform anybody of his escape,” he remarked, “‘and for that reason I kept my mouth shut. I did not see him after we left the island.

The preliminary examination of Cornel- {us. Williams on a charge of murder was held yesterday afternoon and after hear- ing the evidence Judge Cabaniss dis- missed the case on the ground that the defendant acted in self-defense. ‘Willlams and Vivian Cowan were coal teamsters and on Christmas day fought at the stables at 417 Ninth street. They were separated by Mortimer Fitzgerald and Williams went to attend to his team. He was afterward struck on the shoulder with a shovel by Cowan, Willlams p= Fled with Cowan and took the shovel 'rom him. Cowan then ‘rushed upon Wil- liams with a heavy plece of scantling and Williams defended himself with the shov- el. Several blows were struc! combatants till finally Cowan was knock- ed down. Just then Willlams' team start- ed to run and it is thought that one of the horses stepped on Cowan's prostrate body. Cowan only lived a few hours. —_———— " Electrical Trimmers’ Dance.
