L] Dedom Jge mym ~{CABLE S0ON WiLL SPAN THE DEEP Steamship Silvertown on Way Here to Be- gin the Task. This + City and Honolulu to Be Connected by Christmas, Christmas ‘greetings by cable between here and Honolulu. That is the promise Leld out by the Commercial Pacific Cable Company. The 230 miles of cable calcu- lated to span the distance between this city and the land of fruit and sugar cane is now on the way to this city from Eng- land on the monster cable-laying steam- ship Silvertown. She is due to arrive in port on December 5, and as soon as the steamship Is coaled the task of connect- ing the continent with the islands will Le commenced at once. It is expected that the cable-laying trip to Honolulu will not take more than twelve dajs. The ccurse is already laid out, and the con- tractors are in hope of laying the cable at the rate of 10 knots an hour. The laying of the long looked for cable will bo a most Interesting operation to the people of this city. The cable com- pany has already constructed its land of- fice at this end. It is situated out omn Forty-seventh avenue and Fulton street, close to the ocean beach, and as soon as the Sllvertown is coaled she will steam out off the Cliff House and commence rlying out the cable to the shore. TO FLOAT CABLE ASHORE. This will be a novel sight to the people of this city. The Silvertown will go as close to the shore as possible, and then the end of the cable will be buoyed up by monster air bags and floated ashore. These bags will be placed every few feet ‘nnd enough of them will be attached to the cable to insure holding it on the sur- | face of the water. The task will be com- | menced when the tide is setting in strong, | and the contractors anticipate no trouble {in floating the cable ashore. Within a | few hours after the end of the cable is securely anchored to the shore it will be connected with the land cable, which is already laid from the testing-house, as the building on Fulton street is called, to the offices of the Postal Commercial Com- | gomery. | This land cable is already ready for | messages, having been laid by the Oko- | nite Company of New York under the | supervision of Lewls G. Martin, chief su- pervising engineer of the big concern. The land cable is safely tucked away in a steel pipe, and inside of this runs the lead-covered cable, containing four con- ductors. The ocean cable is fitted with a corresponding number of conductors, en- abling the company to work the duplex system of sending and recelving mes- sages. The land cable from the company’s of- fices to the testing-house near the beach is six and a half miles long and has al- ready been satisfactorily tested. As soon as the cable is securely fastened at this end of the line the steamship will:head for Honoluly, paying out the lengthy ca- ble as sheysteams toward her destin&tion. The contractors, an Engish firm having their cable manufacturing plant at the little town of Silvertown, close to Lon- don, figure that 2300 milles of cable which they have stowed away on the big s ship will more than reach Honoliri, GREETINGS BY. CABLE. They only ‘figure an: additional '9° per cent on the known distance between: the two ports, to cover :inundations at the bottom of the sea. The ocean bed over the course which the cable will be laid Is familiar to the contractors, a survey of it having dlready been made. - “If everything goes well, as we expect it to, we will be in communication with the islands by Christmas time,” said L. D. Storror, manager of the Postal Tele- garph Company, in discussing the’ sub- Ject yesterday. “The big steamship Silvertown, hav- ing on board the cable, left England on September 20. The last we heard from her she was at the port of Caronel, on the South American coast, and at that timc she was one day ahead of schedule time. On this reckoning the Silver Town should be here by December 5. tI will Boys Threw Rocks at Her.

The landing at_Honolulu will be made at a point op- posite Kapfolain Park, about six’ miles from-the city of Honolulu. “Mr. Smith, the land cable contractor of New ;York, will leave on the next trip of the Ventura with a corps of assistants ‘and’ go to.Honolulu, where he will su- pervise the laying of the land cable at that point. They figure on having it ready for the ocean cable when it is floated ashore at Honolulu. The land cabie on the island will be an exact coun- teryart of the one already laid in this city. We all figure that there will be no hitch in the laying of the cable and it nothing unfcreseen happens we will' be ready to handle Christmas business be- tween San Francisco and Honolulu. “Now for the rest of the cable to Ma- nila. As soon as the first installment to Honolulu is successfully put in opera- tion, then the Indiarubber and Gutta- percha Telegraph Construction Company of England, which concern has the con- tract for furnishing and laying the cable tetween San Francisco and Manila, will send out the second span of cable, which will reach from Honolulu to Midway Isiand, which, I believe, is in the neigh- borhood of 1300 miles mare toward Ma- nila. The next section will be brought out soon after and will be laid between Mid- way Island and Guam and the last sec-| tion to Manila will follow as soon as possible after. . COMPLETED NEXT SUMMER. “I believe that the cable connecting Ma- nila and San Francisco will be in opera- tion by next summer. We have made ar- raigements to push the job to a suc- cessful and speedy completion. The com- pany Is sparing no money or efforts to give the people what they wanf, cable communication between our country and our newly acquired possessions. The land cable at this end of -the line is one of the best that has ever been put dgwn by any company in the world. It is laid in lengths of 1300 feet and it works like a.charm. The various detalls of the cable- laying should prove intensely interesting to the people of this city. “When the Silvertown starts on her journey to Homolulu she will be the first vesgel that ever left this port with a line connecting her with the land. None of the officials of our company will go on the cable-laying trip, as the English com- pany has the contract In its own hands. It is my bellef, or rather it is my hope, that the Silvertown will arrive here on time."” The Silvertown is not a new steamship to this port. Several years ago she came here for a cargo after laying a cable along the Central Amerlean coast. At that time she took away the largest cargo of grain ever shipped out of this port on any one steamship. Musical Programme at the Park.
