THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.
Uncle Sam Has Land Enough to Give
Us All a Farm.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27. ——The annual
repo1t of Commissionei Hermann of the
general land office, just made public,
shows a grand total of 929, 308, 068 acres
of unapproprinted and unreserved public
lands in the United States. The dispo-
sals of public lands during the fiscal
year show an increase of 728, 516 acres as
compared with the aggregate of the pre-
vious year. The total cash receipts of the
service increased $792,142 over last year.
Original homestead entries‘showed a de-
crease of 28,970 in area involved and
final entiies an increase of 39,132 in
area. There were 150, 541 acres certified
or patented as Iwamp lands timing the
year, an increase of almost 70,.000 In-
dian and miscellaneous land patents is-
sued aggregated 212,848 acres and 420,-
760 acres selected by the various states
and territories were approved and certi—
tied for educationl and other purposes.
Under the several railroad grants made
by congress there were certified and pat-
ented last yeai 504, 651 acres of land, to-
gether with 60, 392 acres for wagon road
constiuction. ,

N EW PACIFIC CABLE.
The Question of a Line to the Philip.
pines Being Considered.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27 .——In official
and diplomatic quarters attention is be-
ing directed to the question of a Pacific
cable linking this country with the Phil-
ippines and points beyond, and it is un-
derstood this government and those for-
eign governments which would be afiect-
ed by the cable are now actively consid-
ering the subject.
The oflicials here are assembling data
and preparing cable maps with the ex-
pectation that the matter will be brought
to the early attention of congress. In a
general way the project is for a cable of
four links—viz, from San Francisco to
Hawaii, 2,120 miles: from Hawaii to
Wake island, 2,044 miles; from Wake is-
land to Guam, 1,293 miles; from Guam
to Manila, 1,350 miles. These landing
points are all within the control of the
United States, our flag having been
raised on Wake island not long ago. This
would connect all the American posses-
s10ns in the Pacific by a line crossing no
foreign territory.
Besides this, the plan permits of an
expansion so as to secure two outlets to
Asia and the far east. ' The first of these
would be from Manila to the Japanese
island of Formosa, from which island
Japan has built a line to the Japanese
coast and the mainland of Asia. The
second outlet would be from Hawaii
south to Fannings island, at which point
the newly projected British cable from
Vancouver to New Zealand crosses.
