newspapers that other people besides
myself have been much annoyed by
the sudden and rapid turning Of
corners by the hack-drivcrs. If |
remember rightly one writer goes so
far rs to observe that he or she keeps
a blacl, list Of such drivers and is
going to publish it one day. Now,
while ] think such plan would
certainly direct attention to the sub
iect, ] an afraid that it would raise
vindictivc feelings and perhaps be
the means of some poor fellow losing
his customers or his work, ! have
a suggestion to make that the police
provide small sign boards to be
placed at the corners of the more
frequented or the very narrow streets,
inscribed, "Walk over this eros
sing" and enforce the breach of the
regulation by arrest and fine. Such
a plan obtains, | am told, in Mel
bourne, Australia, and is found to
work very well there. Many persons
do not like to inform the police of
the bad conduct of driver, not
only from the loss of time and in
convenience it causes, but because
they do not desire to press man too
hard who may only accidentally
have offended, but still there appear
to be many who, like myself, have a
decided objection to being run over
at every street crossing.

EDITOR BULLETIN "A vagrant ac t
exists on our statute book, and yet,
every now and then, we hear of the
dangers to be feared from the num-
bers of Chinese who are living in
our midst without working, and who
band into secrect societies for the
purpose of protecting their members
against the result of their criminal
acts. Is the act still in force? If so,
it should be strictly carried out.
Perhaps, however, it is unworkable.
If that is the case then n suitable
act should have been introduced
during the session of the late Legis-
lature. Perhaps, however, the
stories about these vagrant Chinese
and their evil associations are
largely due to the exaggerated
effect produced by a heated imagi-

THE PANAMA CANAL.

portancc to the Hawaiian Islands
that it is more of q home than
foreign subject to our readers.
Notwithstanding the eminence and
the known successful career of its
engineer and chief promoter, NJ.
De Lesseps, as well as his recog-
nized earncstness in this enterprise,
it seems to be fashionable with
newspapers to take reports of the
progress of the work from the lips
and pens of casual visitors to the
locality in preference to official re-
ports. A general meeting of the
shareholders of the Panama Inter-
oceanic Canal Company was held in
Paris on July 23rd last, when M.
Ferdinand De Lcsseps presented q
most interesting report. The net
total expenditure upon the canal up
to June 30th, 1888, was over forty
two million dollars, and the assets
of the Company remaining at that
date were over forty-one million
dollars. Then the Company had
successfully issued IN October last
100000 3-pcrcent 500-franc bonds,
the last installment of which will be
due in October next. In addition
to these resources and without count
ing on the uncallcd half of the capi-
tai stock, which cannot be called in
without the three months published
notice required by statute, the Com
pany still has reserve of 1919, ,000,-
600 francs in bonds unissued out of
the loan of 800, 900, 900 francs which
it was authorized to borrow. These
resources, it was stated, will only
be drawn upon in proportion as they
may be required for the best inter-
ests of the enterprise and with the
end of completing the canal by the
date announced for its Inauguration.
As q satisfactory evidence of the
amount of work done Nj. De Lesseps
reminded the shareholders that the
concession of q million and n quarter
acres of the public lands of Colombia
was to he granted in proportion as
the work progressed, and then in
formed them that after examination
by its agent of the work accomplished
the Government of the United States
of Colombia had remitted to the
Company declaration that it was
entitled to be adjudged about 375,-
600 acres as the equivalent of little
less than one-third of the completion
of the enterprise. In concluding his
report Nj. De Lesseps quoted from
the statement of the Company's
Director-General, M. Dingler, to
show that of the 10000, 900 cubic
yards of excavations necessary to
the digging of the canal and the
ports, not less than 40,0G0,000 can
be taken out by dredgers. He
arrives by figures at the following
summing up of prospects for COM
pletion of the work. "This is cal
culated TO execute the whole of the
dry excavations in three years and
the necessary dredging in two years.
1t therefore results that even if we
had only commenced the work of dry
excavation on January /, 1885, and
the dredging on January |, 1886,
the. canal could be finished, by
mathematical calculation, by January
/, 1888. TO meet anything unforc-
seen, Notwithstanding that the min
imum yields just estimated have
already allowed for unforeseen acci-
dents, we will have, as q sort of
margin, all that will have been eX-
