General Corbin has been contem-

NICARAGUA ROUTE FAVORED.
Findings of the isthmian Canal Com
mission are Convincing.

WASHINGTON, April 20.-The 18TH
mian canal commission has just COM
pieted a session which practically con-
cludes its iabors.
The final report has been passed
upon and will be put out in about two
months. On authority it can be said
that the conclusions of the committee
are stronger even than their opinions
on the preliminary report for the Mic
aragua route. Reports that the com
missioners were inclining toward the
Panama project as their work nearei
completion are entirely unsubstanti-
ated. On the contrary the final es-
Inmates are more favorable to the Mic
aragua.
BY the borings it is found that the
depth to bedrock at Panama is 12S
feet, while at Nicaragua II Is 95 feet,
a material advantage for the latter.
The Panama dam must be one-half
mile long. The Nicaragua dam calls
for 200 feet length.
1t is found that the masonry of the
Panama dam calls for sl5 000. 900. and
the earthwork for sS.000.oo0. The
