CANAL REPORT
IN THB SENATE
PrOSidOntSeRdS COnlIniSSiOn'O s
Finding to Body
Estimated Cost Of Constructing Mica
raguan Route Is S45,OOO,OOO
More Than Panama

Washington, Jan. 21.-The president
yesterday sent to congress, with mes
sage simply Of transmittal, the supple
mental report of the isthmian canal
commission, in which it is unanimously
recommended that the offer of the new
Panama Canal company TO sell all Of
its rights, property and unfinished
work to the United States for 100000
900 be accepted. After quoting the
correspondence which passed between
the commission and the officers Of the
Panama Canal company in Paris.
the report says: The totality, without
exception, Of its property and rights
on the isthmus, mentioned in the ca
blegram of January 8, includes the fol-
lowing classes Of property:
There are fifty-six parcels Of land
TO which the title rests in the
Panama Canal company, amounting
to about 10000 acres, which, with the
lands belonging to the railway COM
pany, cover nearly all Of the ground
required for the actual construction Of
the canal.
There are scheduled 2,431 buildings,
divided among AZ sub-classifcations,
used for Offices, quarters, storehouses,
hospitals, shops, stables and miscel-
laneous purposes. Among them are
two large permanent buildings in Pan
anna, one used as the inspectors resi-
dence, and the second as the general
offices; large general hospitals at Colon
and Panama, and several important
buildings at Colon. These buildings
are furnished. There is an immense
amount Of machinery, consisting oi
floating plant tugs, launches, dredges
etc). The excavation already accom-
plished upon the main canal line was
carefully computed and was found Il
be $3.50 ,965 cubic yards. The value
of the maps, drawings and records il
Paris, on the isthmus or elsewhere, al
of which are to be transferred to thu
United States is placed at $4,000, 900.
Summing up the total value Of thu
property it is found TO be: Excavation
done, s27,474,OSS; Panama railroa,
stock at par, S6,sS6, 300; maps. drawing
and records, $4,000, 900. Total, $36, 800,
1888. To which add 10 per cent. u
cover omissions, sS,6Ss, ,667. Total, $40,
100000. The last item is intended 4
cover any buildings, machinery, rail
road shares, additional excavation Z
date Of purchase and other assets whic
may be Of value to the United State
and have not been included in tn
other items.
The estimated cost OF constructin
Evening journal., 1902-01-21

the Nicaragua canal is s45, $50, ,704 more
than the cost Of completing the Pan
anna canal. The estimated annual cost
OF maintenance and operation is ST.
800 900 greater at Nicaragua than at
Panama. The Panama route would be
1346 miles shorter than the Nicaragua
route from sea TO sea, with fewer
locks and less curvature, both i'm de-
grees and miles The estimated time
for a deep draft vessel to pass through
the Nicaragua canal was placed at S3
hours, as against 13 hours for Panama,
these estimates being the time Of actual
navigation, and not including delays
for winds, currents or darkness.
But for the purpose Of permitting
the new Panama Canal company to
enter upon the negotiations which have
resulted in the present offer, Colombia
has waived prohibitions and has au-
thorized the company to treat directly
with the United States, with a view
to the use and occupation Of the terri
tory Of the former for canal purposes
If our government should select the
Panama route for an isthmian canal.
Such a transfer Of title thus approved
would give to the United States the
same right, title and interest in the
premises that the new Panama Canal
company now has, but that would not
be sufficient. The existing concessions
thus purchased would be valuable only
States would remove the obstacles in
the way of negotiations between the
two governments for the occupation OF
! Colombian territory by the United
States for canal purposes; but these
concessions are unsatisfactory and in
sufficient. and a new arrangement must
be made If an isthmian canal is to be
constructed by our government across
the isthmus of Panama.
