TIE PANAMA CANAL PURCHASE
The Compnny's President Calls on
the Secretary of State

N. Hutin. the President of the Panama
Canal Company, called upon Secretary
Hay at the State Department yesterday, for
the purpose Of placing before the Secce-
tary plan for the purchase of the Pana-
ma Canal constructions and concessions. II
Hutln has been here for several months
watching the developments toward the
building OF the Nicaragua Canal and since
the action of the Senate upon the Hay
PauIcefote Treaty, he has taken on new
hope that this Government may finally de-
eide to accept the Panama route.
NJ. Hutin's conversation with Secretary
Hay did net, however. result in his plac-
ing any definite proposition before the
Government for the transfer of the Pana-
ma Company's rights to the United
States. and the Government will not give
any consideration to the matter until
such proposition has been made. The
company has heretofore made certain
proposals to the United States. but these
have been regarded as too indefinite. 1t
was apparent from II. Hutin's visit that
despite the unanimous declaration of the
Inter-0ceanic Canal Commission in favor
OF the Nicaragua route. the Panama Com
pany has not abandoned hope OF making
q bargain with this Government.

ARMY RATION TESTS.
Captain Fountain Reports to the
AdJutant General.

Adjutant General.
Captain Fountain, one of the members
of the board appointed by the Secretary of
War to investigate the subject of an emer-
gency ration for the use Of the army, re-
turned to Washington yesterday from Fort
Reno. Okla, where the board has for sew
eral months been testing different emer-
gency rations submitted for experiment.
Captain Fountain reported at the War De-
partment yesterday and presented to Ad-
jutant General Corbin a preliminary re-
port of the boards work. The full report
will not be completed until after the re-
turn Of Captain Foster senior member of
the board.
Until the conclusions Of the board are
acted upon by Secretary Root they will
not be made public but 1t is stated that
the experiments conducted In the West
led the board to conclude that none of the
emergency rations tested gave the same
nutritive result as the old system of ba-
con, coffee, and bareback Considering,
however. that a ration must be portable,
the board considers that the ration pre-
pered under its direction to be packed in
small cans is the best yet offered. This
ration consists principally OF evaporated
beef and parched wheat. Nothing but lean
beef Is used in its preparation and the
wheat is specially treated by steaming and
parching and then grinding with the
evaporated beef, forming almost powder
like substance. which is then compressed
into three cakes, each of which serves as
a meal, together with either chocolate or
tea for drinking. The board considers,
however. that tea will be better than
chocolate, provided the nutritive quality
of the ration can be increased.
