TWO STORIES ABOUT TIE BIG
DITCH

Colonel Rives of the Panama Cana
company, tells Colonel Dan Callahan
who passes the information along to TIN
Atlanta Constitution, that there are n,
masquerade" difficulties in the way o
finishing the job. that good progress ha
been made in the past year, that tn,
railroad has made 81, SOC, 900 net earn
ings, and that the wedding of the tive
oceans is only a question of time. 1t i
only just to Colonel Rives to mention
that at the time this conversation occur
red he hadn't heard the bad news from
Paris.
Colonel Callahan says on his own &C
count that the undertaking, while big
one, is not one of exceptional engineer
ing difficulty. He likes the Isthmus
though he admits he wouldn't pick il
out as an eligible summer resort
The canal is lined with well-built town:
of 8, 900 to 1000 inhabitants. There i:
no danger of rioting and revolution, as
there would be in South America. 81
have found" says the colonel, ''that in
Guatemala mans person and property
are better protected than in any part OF
the United States. There is no danger
at all, but you had better not be out at
night on account of the climate.
Mr.. c. D. Lawrence, for the past five
years British minister at Quito, seems to
have made ms observations of Isthmus
affairs through another make of specta-
cIes. He is just from there, and he tells
New York World reporter that the
work on the canal, slow at the best of
times, is now dragging worse than ever.
De Lessep's talk about getting through
in two more years is simply "pre-
posterous." If the canal is finish
ed in ten years Mr.. Lawrence will be
very much surprised. The really hard
part of the work, he says, is still to be
grappled with. If the French govern
ment refuses to take hold of it, he thinks
the best possible solution of the problem
would be the formation of big private
company of American capitalists. Such
a company could complete the canal in
half the time which would be required
by the dawdling French management,
and also at a quarter of the expense.
During his three days stay on the 18TH
mus he found general alarm at the look
of things. Some resolute optirlists
chung to their faith in de Lesseps, but
the majority regarded the collapse of his
bubble as inevitable. The minister re-
ports:
The citizens of both Panama and Co
lon We're very much exercised over the
prospect of all these workmen being
turned loose on them. You see Colon was
burned once before, and the people have
a dread Of what may result when these
10000 idle men, mostly low-class ia
macia negroes, brutal and ignorant, are
discharged. There was a report while l
was there of the last draft of the compa-
ny being dishonored. If this be true,
and these men are not only discharged
but unpaid, would not like to think
what would follow. The Columbian
government seem to appreciate the gray
ity of the situation, for they have in
creased the garrison at Colon to 800
men and the garrison at Panama to 600.
NJ. deLesseps's shareholders, having
paid their money, are clearly entitled to
take their choice of the reports.

at the age of ID began his career as a
teacher of the district school. He was
very ambitious for college education
and by his own efforts secured the means

among the educators Of the south and
