NEW PACIFIC CABLE PROPOSED. Seattle, October 15-Business men of the Pacific Northwest of the United States are working for the laying of a new trans-Pacific cable along the northern or "Great Circle Route. A bill is now peading in the United States Senate providing for the construc- tion of a new cable across the Pacific along the route that found after investigation To be the most desirable. is the hope of Seattle exporters and importers that the Secate
is
It
committee will be convinced that
the northern route is the most feasible. It has been shown to the Senate committee that a cable laid from Seattle or some point on Puget Sound to Yokohama would traverse a route of 2,700 miles shorter than by way of San Francisco, Midway and Yokohama. By the northern route it would be possible to com- plete the cable in probably two years less time and would cost |$20,000,000 less than if laid over the southern route out of San Francisco. With the immense
volume of business now being transacted across the Pacific and the inadequate cable facilities, it is the assertion of American business men that better com- munication facilities must be provided at an early date. HEAD OF N. Y. K. INTERVIEWED Seattle, October 15.-"The con- struction of boats by the Japanese will depend entirely upon the final distribution of tonnage by the рессе conference," said Baron Rempei Kondo, industrial. adviser of the Japanese delega- tion
to the peace conference in Paris and president of the Nippon Yusen Kaisha Steamship Company. Baron Kondo spent almost a week here en route bome from the peace conference.
