WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Nor
gan has completed and will present to the
Senate within day or two his report on
the Nicaragua Canal. The report after
referring to the suspension of work on
the canal, owing to the monetary strin-
gency Of the last year, has the following
to say of the canal plank:
SIN consequence of the suspension,
there has been some loss, but not of
serious character, in the depreciation of
the plant connected with the construction
OF the canal, but all the dredgings and
machinery requisite for dredging, and
the house, the structures and wharves
necessary for the work on the eastern
division have been supplied. and with
slight repairs are in condition for the i'm
mediate resumption of work on the canal
Carefully revised estimates of the cost of
the canal and work connected makes the
total SS7. 900. 600 at the outside"
Senator Morgan says that the action by
the Senate up TO the present time In the
encouragement of the work created the
belief and excited the desire of this coun-t
try that the canal would be speedily con- /
strucsed under the immediate auspices of
with the use OF its credit. "This sentl-
ment and conviction" he said, 'has in
creased from the time OF the beginning to
the present, and it has been encouraged
by the fact that the crest leading political
parties have declared in favor of its con-
struction by the United States as far as
that may be done under the concessions
OF Nicaragua and Costa Rica. In the an
nual messages of our President this sub
ject has uniformly received strong IN
dorsement
He continues: "If action by Congress
is DELAYED unreasonably long, the COM
pany will be compelled TO either aban-
don the concessions, and lose the money
they have already invested in the canal,
or to accept the offers made by foreign
capitalists. Ii either of these results fol-
low by the inaction of Congress, the peO-
pie could not censure the canal company
for yielding to fate that they could have
avoided if Congress had taken up the
subject of construction of the canal
through the aid of the United States"
In conclusion, the Morgan report says:
''The plan and certain effects OF this bill,
if it becomes a law, will put into active
business employment SlOO,000.O0O OF
money borrowed from our own people,
without risk to the Government Such a
movement as this at this time would stir

employment to $1,000 Americans, who
