AN INTERESTING PAPER READ
TO THE NATIONAL GEO
GRAPHICAL SOCIETY.
The United States Would Then Own
One Waterway ard Would Con-
troll the Use of the Abandoned
Canal-Plenty of Figures.
From a staff Correspondent /.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S-A clear
and comprehensive comparison If the
two American isthmiau canals was
read before the National Geographical
Society here tonight. The author is
Arthur P. Davis, photographer of the
United States Geological SURVEY. ard
his paper reflects the results of two
years work on rainfall, riveriow
evaporation. water storage ard other
statistics compiled DUNG frequent
Journeys over both routes.
AT the close of his address Mr.. Da-
Wis expressed the relative claims Of
the two canals in money galues, con
Guiding that the total net advantage
in favor of the proposed Nicaraguan
canal is s35 5000, 600" In view of the
work already done on the Panama wa
terway, however. and the fact that
future conditions will probably never
Justify the construction of the two
canals. Mr.. Davis urged that the Pa
mama Canal Company should pace
price upon its work so reasonable
that the United States could econo
micaIlv afford to purchase and com
plete its canal under American con
troll in preference to constructing the
Nicaraguan canal"
Before treating of the two routes
best known Mr.. Davis explained the
reasons for abandoning the "Atratro,
San Bias" and Caledonia routes
THE present Isthmian Canal Commits
sion has caused a reconnaissance 10
be made of the entire Isthmus of
Darien," he said, which has resulted
in the conviction that no other route
compares in practicability with the
Panama and Nicaragua routes.
THE Panama route" he continued,
though not the rarrowest part OF
the isthmus, has a natural harbor on
each coast. with depression in the
backbone of the Cordillera only 1868
feet above sea level. These natural
advantages led to the construction in
1851 of the Panama railway, from Co
Ion. on the Caribbean. to Panama, on
the Pacific. to accommodate the heavy
traffic induced by the discovery of
gold in California. In 1878 De Les
seps inaugurated his celebrated at
tempt to cut a sea-level canal through
here, without having made any ade-
duate estimate of the cost or even OF
the physical obstruction to be over
come. A large amount of work was
actually done. the canal being practic-
ally completed for seven miles on its
northern end and quantities of heavy
excavation made in the upper and
southern portions of the route. The
sums actually subscribed and put into
this work are variouslv stated as
more or less than s260.000,000, not
more than one-fourth of which is rep
resented by actual construction. the
balance being sQuandered in corrupt
and reckless extravaganza, and the
scandals occasioned thereby led to
the bankruptcy of the company and
the suspension of the work.

a long period here in 81 and also was
in Wilmington to put in the switch
board there with Manager Henkel Of
the Brattleboro exchange. Wads-
worth was here some time in SO and
Lane was here when the Office was

one of the men who was present when
the shooting took place but who es-
capped. was also here with Lane at that

tleboro was less than two years ago.
Manager Henkel remembers Brainard
as a jealous and suspicious man and
thinks he committed the murders
while crazy mad and does not believe
him to be insane. The picture Of
