WASHINGTON. Dec. 2S.-The full text
OF the preliminary report Of the Nicaragua
canal commission was today mace public.
1t says:
The commission visited Nicaragua. per-
sonaliy examined the entire canal region
from ocean to ocean, and employed some
seventy engineers. with their Iahorers and
helpers. for ten months. In making careful
surveys ara examinations of the canal re-
glon. The commission believes that the
construction OF canal across Nicaragua
Is entirely feasible. The estimates of the
TWO bes.-knoNn characteristic routes have
been nearly completed. These routes are
known as the Maritime Canal Comnany's 3
and the Lul routes. Their estimated cost
IS approximately $i2i0 400 and Sis, ,ooo. ooo.
respectively.
1.-The assumed diners ions are consider
ably greater than ever tefore proposed,
both in length OF locks and in width. depth
and radius OF curvature Of canal TEese
inc~aked Dimensions have been made acc
essary by the demands OF modern COM
merce, size and draft OF modern ships. etc
This has necessarily made a correspond
Ing increase in the estimated cost and Is n
no way inconsistent with the estimates made
from former surveys. which contemplated a
much smaller and cheaper canal.
''It Is the opinion OF this commission that
OF the two routes herewith estimated for,
the one called the Lull route Is the Llore
desirable, because 1t Is easier OF construc-
ton, presents no problems not well within
good engineering precedents. and will be A
safer and far more reliable canai when
completed.
''It also believes that the dimensions and
form of construction preferred by the COM
mission are better than the cheaper form
and the smaller dimensions. which would
undoubtedly call for expensive improve
ments within short time after its compile

admit Of variants which may reduce the
cost These are now being considered by

TORONTO PAPER SPEAKS OUT.
Prediction Made That Canada win
Not Long Remain an Integral
State. Unless Prompt Action II
Taken to Repres. the Annexation
M0vement-COnser Afraid
Of the Appetite for Expansion.

TORONTO. Ont, Dec. a.-The Toronto
World. which opposes the present Liberal
government at Ottawa, has a startling ed
itorial today under the heading. Canada
on the Brink. in which Il warns the peo-
pie of this country that times are critica,
so far as the maintenance OF Canada as
free. independent and Integral portion
OF North America is concerned The
World says:
Unless Canadians are fully alive TO the
situation and speak out In no uncertain
way. they will find themselves between n
grasping annexation movement In the
United States, having for its end the DON'T
nation OF the whole continent. and a great
party In England prepared TO make almost
any sacrifice to the United States in com
sideraticn of some kind of support of Eng
land in her race with Russia, France and
with other European powers
The World then refers to the recent
speech at Macon, Ga. of Nal Gen. James
II. Wilson. of Delaware. in which that
gentleman expressed the hope that he
would see the day when our starry nag
shall float everywhere from the frozen
North to the sunny cline Of Central Amer
ica." The World proceeds;
I'VE believe that these words OF Mr..
wilson oniy show too well the opinion OF
a great number OF the Americans. when
once their appetite for expansion is arous-
ed in the direction OF the North. and II
once they get II into their heads that they
only have to go far enough in their dual
game Of blufr. which seems TO be their
great and their strongest card in dipio-
macy. viii force Canada willy niiiy into
annexation"
In conclusion the paper says:
