that general white primary was expected
to be held July 30th to nominate delegates

conservatives regard this as a plan TO

PANAMA NEEDS MORE MEN,
But Canal Wages Are Generally De-
spised ON the Isthmus.

Colon, Colombia, May H-Thcre is q ru-
NOR that the Panama Canal Company will
resume operations next month on a grand
scale But as the policy of the canal people
is rigid economy and as there is demand
all around for laborers to whom liberal
offers are made ii does not seem likely
much work will be done on the ditch
unless the company gets recruits from the
West Indies or India.
There are S97 laborers all told on the
canal Hundreds more are needed but men
refuse TO work for what is offered The
company pays 80 cents a day apiece TO 600
of these, the remaining 297 earning from 80
cents to So 20 at JOB work. such as filling
cars. etc. There are five eXcavators at work
with seven others in the hands of mechan-
les getting ready for service. This latter
fact gives color TO the rumor mentioned
above.
Every now and then the bureau person
mel is increased by arrivals from Paris,
tending to restore that confidence which
everybody on the isthmus had lost in the
enterprise.
Notwithstanding frequent appeals to the
canal authorities by ministers of the gos-
pei, the worNmen at Culebra are still paid
Oft on Sundays. AS the employees get rid
of their money at gambling tables n few
minutes after receiving it, and as gambling
leads to quarrels and fights, Sunday paying
is a means of shameful Dissertation of the
Sabbath. A row occurred at the pay table
last Sunday. and would doubtless have
terminated dsastrously but for the timely
intervention of the military.
