Member of the Canal CnImu!ssion
Discusses the Panama Route.

WashinstcH. Feb. le.-tItofge 5. Mort-o1,
an engineer, member of the isthm!an Canal
Commission, testified before the Commit
tee on Interoceanic Canals to-day, express
ing n preference for the Panama route.
tic said that. according to his opinion.
the dam at Bohio the Panama line could
be constructed for much more reasonable
sum than had been estimated. and he also
thought the construction of dam there
entirely practicable. He did not believe
the double chambers in the locks would be
necessary. and he thought the control OF the
Chagres River entirely practicable.
Mr.. Morrison spoke OF the plan for a canal
through tunnel proposed in the San
Bias Darien) route chImericai He said
that no person could undertake to say in
advance what material would be encountered
in running tunnel. and that. therefore,
the risk would be greater than could he es-
timated. He also thought it impracticab!e
to tow ships through such u tunnel by
means Of an electric trolley.
