Twenty million dollars has been spent
in homes for the engineers and working
men along the rOuto of the Panama ship
canal" said Captain James Wiltbank,
who has been engaged for more than Il
year in dredging operations on the canal,
aad who has just returned home after
tough tusslo with tho dreaded swamp
fever.
PLENTY ofmoney there, then, Captain?"
ooh, plenty. There is only one thing
more common than cash, and that is death.
Men dic like leaves in autumn. Only the
Italians appear to live. The dead are dis
posed Of without ceremony. a shallow
grave, no prayers, and al is in moment
forgotten. There arc now 10, 900 men NJ
work or the canal, mostly negroes from
Jamaica and the French West Indies.
These negroes are brought over in droyes
us fas; rs those ut work die, and ] venture
10 say that not two-,hrls OF the 1000
laborcrS now at work will be alive year
from now. 1t is dreadful. Five thousand
died during the past three months. But
The large pay tempts men to brave all the
danger. The company appears 10 have
an unlimited supply OF money. and pays
of every two weeks.
"What progress has been made in the
four years."
"Wcll. two miles and a half OF the canal
proper has been dug ont. Originally this
section was dredged 20 depth of II feet,
but it is now only six feet deep, the soft
swamp land, pressed down by the weight
of the dirt thrown out or either side,
having filled the canal from underneath.
4 great deal OF work has, however, been
done with the great steam shoycls in lev
cling the high lands through which the
canal is to pass. AND dredging will soon
be started in those sections. Work is now
progressing upon the only large noun
tain which bars the way OF the canal from
ocean to ocean. This mountain is 400
feet high and nine miles IN circumfcr-
cnce, and is to DO cut down with steam
plows and carted away. The company
has Dctl NoiHpCIICu " Sl'ci4U T-V1O"0,VVV,
as l have said, to locate homes through the
swamps, from which rs 4 basis the work
of digging out the canal can be carried
on. This work nccessitated the building
Of solid foundations of stone and gravel,
hundreds of feet wide and miles in ex-
tent. Laborcrg get 80 a day, and skilled
mechanics and bosses from 800 to $3.50
per month"
"WiN the canal ever be 1inishcdf"
"Not, think, unless the swamp Sec
lions are constructed with piling, and that
would cost so much that the scheme could
not possibly pay. But the company APP
pears to have I'LL the cash necessary TO
carry on the work"
