W asi nia'ljN, Mar -iv— When songres- tailed to provid-.- fur building the Hawahau cubic, it- by no means ended tiie question On die contrary, it- has brought forward a proje-ct -,:f interna t: nul importance by which Russia. France, Japan and Hawaii will join in an American enterprise fur iaying a table from the United ritares to Hawaii and throng Japan, with branch cables to the lu'eacb island-- and ox ten--ive naval .station.- in the soufheru Pacific.

The negotiations with these govern:nci!!s have proceeded quietly, our with such satisfa *tory results thai" arc woli along to ward completion. A number of con icreue.'S have neon lu'Id witli the officials of the Japanese legation here and several phases of the subject are now under negotiation between Tokio and Washington. Minister Kurino is much interested in thi project. It is probable that five or six ot rlie most influential and wealthy .Japanese merchants will be named among the incorporators.

France has also been interested and in rhe course of negotiations she has .made a significant suggestion to Hawaii to the effect that French interests will be better sub-erwd by having the cable go via the United States instead of the Yam ouver route, which wmid be controlled by Great Britain. The chief interest of Franco is in securing cable connections with Tahiti and her other Pacific possessions and with her naval rendezvous which is now cut oil' from communication.

Russia's interest in the project are regarded as even more important than those of Japan or France. Russia's cable communication with the western hemisphere is now westward, through London or Paris, and this filtering of all her news and official messages through London in particular, has long been a source of irritation. The Russian imperial family already have a cable from Vladivostok, the western point of Siberia to Japan, so that the new line would give Russia through cable communication eastward instead of through London or Paris. The military and strategic imporcance of this is very great, for should Russia, be arrayed against the triple alliance she could not communicate westward to the outer world, but could always maintain eastward to the iiited States and to France.

Hawaii is also interested in the enterprise, as sh regards it as a practical realization of her efforts to communicate with the outer world. The United States congress failed to act and it also declined to vacate the treaty in order to let Ureal Britain to build the cable. Under these i-irctimsiances, the new enterprise with Russia, France and Japan joining, lias commended itself to Minister Thurston, the Hawaiian minister, and to other leading men of Hawaii.

The foregoing gives tins international scope of the ejiterpri.se. The American branch is on similarly broad lines. Admiral John Irwin, United States navy, who wrote the notable report when in command of our fleet in Hawaii, and General Roy Stone are principally interested in the enterprise in Washington. With I hem are associated President Aivord of the Bank of California and the vice president of the bank, also the president and vice president of the Sail Francisco chamber of commerce, John D. Spreckels, son of Claud Spreckels, Herman Oelrichs, son-in-law of the late Senator Fair, and other millionaire capitalists. Besides these, there will be several of the wealthy Japanese capitalists heretofore mentioned. Negotiations are also in progress which can not now be made public, by which a financial house known the world over will be among the p-ojectors.

The principal work of organization is being consummated here

111

Washing

ton. The only question at present is whether the incorporation shall be under the state laws of New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia or California. Their advantages are being compared and the corporation will be under the state laws most favorable. An effort was made a few days before congress expired to securc a national incorporation. but it "was denied, as it threatened at that time to be harmful to the government cable project then in conference committee. It was not made known at that time that France, Russia, Japan and Hawaii were interested in the project. But the failure to secure a national charter has in

110

way checked

the enterprise. The organization will be under one of the state laws, as heretofore stated, and the arrangements are so far along that the filing of the articles of incorporation will be during the present month.

The consummation of these plans, which are now made known for the first time, can not fail to arouse keen interest in Great Britain and throughout Europe. The British project of a cable starting from Vancouver appears to bo ended with the failure of the senate to so modify our treaty with Hawaii us to let the British cable land 011 Necker island. The only recourse for Great Britain would be to induce Hawaii to break this treaty obligation with the United States, but it is known positively that this will not be done. Instead, therefore, if a British cattle across the Pacific as has long seemed imminent, France, Russia, Japan and Hawaii are now uniting with American ente^°.se to execute tins work of vast commercud and military importance.

Misplaced Switch Causes a Railroad DIsaitur nt iscotiuinl, Georgia. MACON,

March y.—One of the worst

railroad wrecks that h-ss ?ver occurred: in this section tor many years, on ths. Eastern Tennessee. Virginia and Georv 5"ia railroad, took place -'it Scotland, Ga.. reslerdav morning. The Florida ve»ti-,

Dulod train from Atlanta '.n'i Jacksonville, runn.ng

to Brunswick?! .u the rate

:0 miles an hour, struck misplaced switch The entire wain "vu~ defailed and nearly every -ar w.is throw: apon its side. The train was orcwdea •villi passengers nounu tor Fi rida and £h: tact that only two of these lost- ":i"ir iive». is considered miraculous Mrs../C- H. Rubers of Pickens, Miss., and lv 5-year-old daughter, were killed. Of the •, rest five or six received severe bruises and strains, hut the majority were only slightly injured.

There were rliree Pullman cars on the train, one of which was occupied almostentirely by the Roland Reed Theatrical company, which was to have opened in Jacksonville last night. It was here that the greatest number of the injured were found. Mr. Reed had his back and leg badly injured. Other members of the company injured were: IMiss^ Mary Meyers, New York, severely3* wrenched in back and shoulders James Douglass, Brooklyn: Miss Lsadore Rush, New York, and Juili.m Reed. Philadi pliia, all slightly injure !. The company cancelled its date at »lacksonvillo and returned to Atlanta.

In one of the o! her Pullman's Mr. and Mrs. HolTner of Llyria, O., Mrs. R. II. .Morion of Cincinnati and W. R. Bernaii of JSTew York were slightly injitred.

Mrs. Suiters and her young daughter, who were killed, were in the forward car, which received the first full shot "c of the derailment. Singularly enough, Mrs. Subers' nursing babe, carried in her arms, was uninjured by the shock that crushed out its mother's life, a I was found after the wreck still clinging to her silent form.

The malu passengers wdio were able to do so worked hard to rescue her less fortunate companions from the upturned and broken cars. Mr. Reed, in spite of his own injuries, was active in this work, and rescued three of the imprisoned ladies.

The cause of the accident evidently lay in the switch, but as the latter was badly wrecked, it is believed that ti switch had been tampered with, but whether carelessly or of deliberate evil attempt, can not be learned at present.

PEANEY MURDER SENSATION. The Husband Keleased and Two Other Arrests Made.

TOLKDO,

March 9. There was a

new sensation yesterday in the mysterious murder of Mrs. Peter Peaney at Tontogany, when the dead woman's husband, who had been arrested for the crime, was released and Dr. A. Eddmou and his hired girl, Nellie Hartsing, were taken into custody. Dr. Eddnion is one of the foremost- citizens of Tontogany, but suspicion has been attached to him all along. It was in the rear of his drugstore that the charred remains of Mrs. Peaney were found.

The two prisoners were taken to Bowling Green for preliminary examination, which will take place there. Sheriff Briggs would only say that he had examined a number of witnesses at Tontogany and that the information thus obtained finally led him to make the arrests.

O., March !).—Some boys

playing on the old fort grounds made a find yesterday which revives the sensational robbery of the Merchants' National bank in this city oil the night- of Jan. (i, when something like $10,000 in cold cash was secured. Hidden under the bandstand was a complete kit of burglar tools, consisting of chisels, drills, taps, files, two dark lanterns, a dry battery and coil of wire, used to explode the dynamite. The tools were slightly rusted from exposure, but were all comparatively new. The case is still a mystery to the detectives, who are unable to obtain the slightest clew to the robbers.

Told of tlie mpress Frederic 5v.

A pretty act of,kindness on the part of the dowr.ger empress took place the other day in a hospital at Potsdam and is told in an English paper by an eyewitness. A patient- was at death's door, and his wife had been hurriedly summoned. With her baby in her arms she was walking up and down the waiting room close to the ward in which her husband lay.

The empress happened to pay one of her frequent visits to the hospital, and seeing tlie poor woman in her bitter sorrow she approached to ask some sympathetic quer.on^. »•, •P "Yes, he is dying," the wife sobbed,

"and he wants to say so much to me about how I am to manage when he is gone and how the children are to bo brought up, but baby is not well and cries, and he is so weak he can't bear it,' and he may die at any moment.

In an instant the empress had taken I the infant into her arms, and while for a wholo hour the mother sat by the side of her dying husband her majesty nursed the child, walking up and down the room with it and soothing it with motherly tenderness.

Victoria's Ileceptions.

A London correspondent says: The severity of the weather has had an important- effect on tho arrangements for the queen's drawing rooms and the prince's levees, and there has been a great falling off in the appplications for presentation at early drawing rooms. Women are willing to assume any ordinary risk and hardship to secure an audience with her majesty, but the genuino danger of pneuimfhia makes even tho most ambitious hesitate. The rule compelling women to appear with bare neck and shoulders at theso midday functions is still insisted on, and as attendance means a nearly two hours' wait in tho carriage outside, and then another long exposure in the cold palace rooms before the royal presence is reached, it is no wonder that complaints are loud and numerous. The queen thus far nas refused to make any concession in the matter, and it may easily happen if tho frost continues that the royal drawing room will fail to attract thoso who are willing to risk everything except life in order to attend.

What She Wore.

Fashionable drossmakers say that the young Duchess of York now sets the London fashions quite as much as her mother-in-law, tho Princess of Wales. Tho court chroniclersindorso this by invariably describing tho duchess' dresses as fully as those of tho princess. American women may therefore be interested in knowing that tho duchess at her first public appearance this season, at the opening of the bazaar at the admiralty, wore "a black silk gown dotted with mauve black velvet bodice, with pointed vest of pale iris bonnet of silver passementerie, with petunia flowers." As the Princess of Wales is not likely to be seen much in fashionable society this season, the young duchess has become an important person indeed. Her baby is said to be growing up into a rather plain child, but fat and sturdy, the latter advantages being derived from his buxom mother.—London Letter.

Dado and Frieze.

It is English, if that is any recommendation to the young housekeeper, not to have both dado and frieze on the walls. As each has grown wider, the average wall becomes a mere strip where both aro used. It is a good plan to use the dado in halls, dining rooms and bedrooms, reserving the frieze for parlors and reception rooms.

Some of the new effects in wall papers fairly defy description in artistic b^puty. One put on an up town house very recently was of hoavy cream tinted paper with a frieze of clematis vine, which was not defined within a set limit, but was massed rather thickly along the upper border of the room, long, swaying tendrils and creepers falling out of it to stray in some places almost to the wainscoting. The effect was as of a gentle breeze gently moving the vines. It seemed almost incrediblo that they were stationary.

Australia.

The establishment of full woman suffrage in South Australia is in some respects tho greatest triumph ever gained for the cause. It establishes woman's freedom over 910,000 square miles of territory, a region larger than all the United Statos east of the Mississippi river. It is a country destined to become densely populated by tho AngloSaxon race and to dominate the southern hemisphere.

The Australian correspondent of the Boston Congrogationalist writes concerning the extonsion of suffrage to women in that country, "When South Australia falls in lino with New Zealand in this matter, and of our Australasian population of nearly 4,000,000 about a fourth will be under 'adult suffrage,' it needs no great gift of prophecy to foretell the speedy establishment of the same order of things in tho other throefourths.

This is the first time that a woman has been appointed on anv state board in California.

.moirn! In Conaecticut.

Ac Hart ford Feb. 13 there was a 1 very animated public meeting of the committee on woman suffrage in the 1 .hall of vho house of representatives.

Bills were considered conferring mu-

nicipal and presidential suffrage on women and ono repealing the law7 of lS'KJ conferring on women tlio right to vote at school meetings. Addresses in I favor of the extension of the suffrage to women were made by Miss Yates of

Maine, Mrs. Bacon and Mrs. Forbes of Hartford, Miss Fenner of New Lonuon and Miss Babcock of Stonington.

A Crinoline Substitute.

A new substitute for crinoline consists of a silk petticoat lined throughout with soft canvas, and it has a deep yoke on the front and sides, with deep organ plaits in tho back and a fluted flounce at the lower edge of the yoke. It is called "tho Elizabethan petticoat," and anything more suggestive of crinoline proper than tho title and appearance of the skirt could not possibly be furnished, jpg A

The Dundee (Scotland) Courier has sent two lady correspondents, Miss Marie Imandt and Miss Bessie Maxwell, on a tour around tho world to investigate in different countries the condition of women. They expect to travel 26,000 miles in the course of their inquiry.

Parisian women are, soino of them, wearing hand painted gowns. One in which a well known leader of fashion in that city appeared was of dull white silk and had over the plain flaring skirt largo painted baskets loaded with flowers.

Xooinnp Out of Ix-bt.

Tlio woman who expects to enjoy prosperity, self respect, peace of mind,® the esteem of her friends and the good will of her tradesmen must flee from debt as sho would from rhe plague. Tho woman to whom these things aro matters of indifference, who doesn't care about tlio world's opinions or her creditors', must avoid debt also, for tho reason that duns have so many ways of making life unpleasant. An account book aids tlio woman who is struggling to escape debt, because it enables her to keep track of her expenses and to stop spending when she is reaching her limit. A savings bank account is another way of escaping debt. Tho woman who is saving money generally takes such a pride in watching her little hoard grow that she is able to deny herself many costly luxuries for the pleasure sho takes in saving. And denying oneself costly things means avoiding dobt.—Now York World.

Ladies' Maids.

"Ladies' maids havo a hard time of it these days, said a member of that guild the other day when sho was talking to a massago cure, to whom sho had gono for instructions. "I've got to learn to give massage now, or I can't be sure of my place any longer. And I must got tho real professional thing, for my lady has been massaged so much sho knows all about how it ought to be done. Then I've had to become a good chiropodist and to learn enough about physical culture to go through her exorcises with Mrs. because it bores her to do it alone. In the meanwhile my salary is $30 a month, just what it was when I only knew thoso things that a lady's maid always had to know. I guess tho next thing will be for mo to learn homeopathy and filling teeth I"—New York Mercury.
