Will Lay Cable Before Fall.
It is the hope of Chief Signal Officer
General A. W. Greely to have the cable
between Bitka And Valdes completed and
laid before the 1st of October. The Burn
tide, which 1 to take the cable connecting
these two points, Is now at Seattle loading
for Its long trip. Last year 700 miles of
cable were laid under tremendous difficul
ties. Very early spring, late autumns,
enormous snowfalls, , the constant succes
sion of Icebergs making the trip of the
Burnside moat memorable. Then delays In
the arrival of the Burnside at Besttle last
year delayed the work, of laying the cable
from Juneau until stress of weather and
the closing of navigation compelled the
Burnside to put back to Seattle. Later the
commercial steamer, ; under the iharge of
(he military authorities, waa sent 'a the
Philippines, where a portion of the Interior
of the Philippine Island cable was laid.
Peremptory orders, however, had been is
sued by the army authorities that the
Burnside should take up the work of com
pletlng the cable fropl Queen Charlotte
Island to. Bitka and from Sitka to Valdes
and this cable, 780 miles In length, ts now
being taken on board the vessel especially
equipped for cable laying purposes.
rarely American Made.
The cable between Sitka and Valdes is
part of the longest cable ever undertaken
In America, the appropriation for the ca
ble having restricted It to be of domestlo
manufacture. It is also noteworthy that
this American made cable waa for a greater
drpth than that In which any domestic ca
ble had ever been made, its manufacture.
Inspection and transportation involving
more Intricate difficulties than had sur
rounded any previous work of the signal
corps. While this cable was manufactured
in me vicinity or New York City, yet it
waa necessary to transport it some 16,000
miles around Cape Horn, under unusual
conditions as to storage and enre,' as to In
sure its delivery in perfect Condition to the
cable ship Burnsii,.., which waa to receive
It in Seattle harbor. Although seemingly
naurmountablo barriers presented ' them
selves to those who had undertaken the
manufacture of this cabin, yet the signal
corps never let up In the work of supervis
ing and Inspecting Its manufacture. In or
der to Insure Its acceptance It was found
necessary t6 select and train men of the
signal corps in the complicated profesalon
of cable telegraphy. Nothing daunted, how
ever. General Greely began the work of
Installation with a determination to meet.
If possible, the urgent desire of the secre
tary of war that at least one ' section of
this cable should be In operation by the
time congress convened lost December. In
his report to the secretary of war, General
Greely outlined the hardships attending the
Burnslds'a laying of the cable from Char-
otto Island to Bitka. It is expected that
with anything like favorable conditions the
Burnside will connect Bitka with Valdes
long before the otose of navigation this
year and another reach will be made to
ward bringing Alaska into direct communi
cation with the United States whan ths
cold shuts off all communication by land or
sea.
