12 - THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, AUGUST 9, 1902 ROOSEVELT APPROVES GABLE PLAN Attorney General Knox Reports to the Presi- dent. Congress Will Undoubtedly Ratiiy All the Con- ditions. Constrdetion of the Line Between This City, Hawaii, China and Manila to Be Started With- in a Short Time. —_— OYSTER BAY, N. Y., Aug. 8.—President Roosevelt - was exceptionally busy for a| couple of hours to-day disposing of an ac- cumulation of public business. By lunch- | eon time he had cleared away the official | correspendence & was ready to receive | the Attorney General and Mrs. Knox, who | arrived from New York about noon. Dur- ing the afternoon the conference between | the Presider Attorney General Knox | developed into of the most important held at Sagamore Hill. Several months one | ago the Pacific Commercial Cable Com- | pany sought pission from the cxecu-; tive branch ¢ e Government to lay a | Pacific c unning from San Francisco | via Honolulu and Guam to China, there to | connect with the British cabie to the Phil- | ippine he proposition of the company wa ssume all expense of laying and operating the cable. For the concessions of the landings at San Francisco, Hono- Julu and Guam the company broposed to grant to United Siates Government | pecial r certain conditions of war practically olute control of the cable.

Japaness Warship Ordered to Prevent American Occupation, HONOLULU, H. T, Aug. 2.—According to the Honolulu men who are interested in the Marcus Island guano expedition, agamst which Japan has sent a war ves- sel, as reported by the last advices re- celved here from the States, the vessel which left here for the Island carried a complement of Mauser rifles, and her cap- tain had instructions from the company to plant the American flag on the island and keep it floating until compelled to haul it down. Captain A. A. Rosehill, the discoverer of the island, who left his claim to it on a cocoanut tree on Marcus in 1889, is in command of the expedition. The company’s claim is based on his title, which is on record with the State Depart- ment at Washington. No intimation that the vessel left here with any arms on board was given out until the news was received that the Jap- anese Government had laid claim to the island and had dispatched a war vessel there. Celonel Thomas Fitch then made ublic the instructions given to Captain osehill, which, whiie designed to pre- vent any. contlict, were intended to com- pel the Japanese to allow the Americans to land, or use force to drive them away. Captain Rosehill's instructions from the company are to inform the Japanese on Marcus that his expedition is a peaceful one for the purpose of making a sclentific investigation of the value of the guano deposits of the island, and to attempt to make a peaceful landing. In the event that the Japanese refuse to allow him to land, Rosehiil is to sail away out of sight of the island and return under cover of dark- mness, land an armed force and raise the American flag, and keep it up till it is torn down by a superior force. At the same time the captain was told to avoid a eonflict in every way possible. In the event of his encountering a Jap- anese war vessel, the commander of the expedition was to present his credentials as the discoverer of the island and the agent of the Marcus Island Guano Com- pany, and to state that the object of nis expedition was to make a scientific exam- { ination of the island for the company. If | the island was found to be of value, the matter of ownership was to be referred to the United States and the Japanese gov- ernments. If the war vessel's officers still refused to allow a landing, Captain Rose- hill was instructed to start ashore with an unarmed force, in a boat flying the American flag, and to make a landing and carry out the purposes of the expedition unless physically restrained. It is thought that the schooner com- manded by Rosehill, the Julia E. Whalen, \has arrived there by this time, and that the Japanese war vessel was there first.

By those who have studied the subject it is believed that a cable laid under the conditions proposed will be to all intents and purposes a Government cable line, with few, if any, of the disadvantages at- tendant upon Government construction and maintenance. Under the United States’ treaty with China the Chinese Government, having granted to a British company the right to maintain and operate a cable line with- in its doma be obliged to grant to the Pacific Commercial Cable Company, an American incorporation, the same rights. This will enable the company not only to land its San Francisco line in China, but will aiso enable it to obtain a Chinese terminus for its line to Manila. In the laying of its cabie lines the com- pany has been accorded the right to use | the United States Government soundings, Attorpey General Knox is inclined to opinion that the company will prac- mediately proceed to construct Considerable time will be re- quired for the preliminary arrangements before the actual laying of the cable be- gins, but it is regarded now as certain t an American owned and operated ca- line to the Orient is in sight.

No little concern is manifested for the safety of the towns of Battle Lake and Rambler, which lie a | mile and a half apart.
