CABLES

The first attempt to lay nn Atlan-

tic cable was commenced at Valen- tin, in Ireland, fifty-six years ago to- day, August 5, 1857. After the first few miles had been laid the cable snapped. This break was soon re- paired. but six days later, after 300 miles of wlrc had been laid out, it snapped again, and the vessels re- turned to Plymouth. A second nt- tempt to Lay the cable failed through a violent storm, but the third-voyage was successful, and the junction be- tween the two continents was com- pleted by the lay ng of 2,050 miles of wire between Valentia and Newfound- land. On August 5, 1858, just a year after the beginning of the great project, the first two messages, from the Queen of England to the Presi- dent of the United States amd his re- ply, wont over the wires. There was givzsit rejoicing on both sides of the Atlantic, but it was premature, for within a. month the cable ceased

Sovereign Grand Priory of Canada, the governing body of the Masonic “Order of the Temple." began its an- nual session here to-day, the meeting being the first that the order ever has

HEAD OF TRAPPIBTS

PASSED AWAY.

MONTREAL, August 3.-Growing

so weak towards the end that the rigorous Trappist rule that every member uf the order shall die on the floor amid sack clothes and ash- es, was vfor once dispensed with, Right Rev. Dom. Antoine Oger, E.C, R., the famous head of Canada’s most picturesque branch of the Trap- pist order, died here last night. I-lie death for two weeks was regarded ns only being R matter of hours, but the mighty spirit within the frail body fought off for days the final passing,. Two weeks ago he was carried on his bed into athe monas- tery chapel to witness the religious exercises attendant upon the celebra- tion of the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. He wus made abbot fn 1902. The monastery at Tracad- ie N. B., was for n time under his re- gim-c, but it was given tothe monks rom Brittany, France.

He agreed that the West Indies had suffered very much from their present cable rate to this country, which va- ried from 4s 2d to 5s 6d per word, a rate which was crushing to tele- graphic communication and commer- cial development. After careful ar- rangements with the Postmnster-Cen- eral, they had concluded fresh ar-‘_ rangements.

At present, continued Mr. Harcourt,

the West India Islands contributed $51,500 n year towards cable service, und it seemed unreasonable to ask tfiem for more. They were informed that better rates could be obtained if $80,000 a year were added to that subsidy. The amount had been found half by the British Govern- ment, and as he had just learned from the Right Hon. Ii, L. Borden, the other half by the Canadian Govern-

ifition. Buch sportsmanlike acts are _ mann ((35%,-5_)

As a result of this arrangement,

said Mr. Harcourt, cable rates be- tween the West Indies and the United Kingdom would be reduced to 2s 6d

OTTAWA. Aug. 4-The cable report

that Cnnndn is bearing part of the cost of reducing the cable rates in the West Indies may be accepted fr; well founded, even though any nego- tiations to that end have not reached n final conclusion. It all dates back tn the West I-ndian trade agreement.

n .

those negotiations were in progress here that there were two main ob- stacles to the development of Cana- dian West Indian trade. One was the poor steamship service, and another the almost prohibitive cable rates. In some cases the rate from Halifax is a dollar a word.

The trade agreement was concluded,

and fn carrying it out the steamship service has been improved and will he still better. To reduce the cable rates is the remaining obligation of the agreement, and this will he car-

`_ J. ILA. rfcd out next. The governments will
