months ago. There he met Russell McKoy, Gov

a schooner at Papeete. In this both men were
about 20 sail for Pitcairn Island when Coffin wrote

MAJOR GLENN'S TRIAL ENDED.
DEFENCE OF AN OFFICER ACCUSED OF
PRACTISING THE WATER CURE.

Manila June 6.-The trial by court martial at
Catbalogan. island of Samar of Major Edwin F.
Glenn, of the 5th Infantry. who was charged
with administering the water cure to Fil1pfnos,
is concluded. The defence claims to have proved
that the water cure is not cruel. and that it has
been frequently practised by the police OF the
principal cities of America for the purpose OF
extorting information. The defence claims also
to have proved at the trial that the Filipino
guide to whom Major Glenn administered the
water cure was traitor, and ought under all
the laws of war, to have been shot; that, except
for the fact he alone had certain information,
he would have been shot; that the guide was
guerilla and not even entitled to the laws OF
war; that the presidente and members OF the
police force of the town where the water cure
was administered are now in Bilibid prison, IN
Manila on information obtained through TINS
guide and that in addition, the water cure is
being used in the United States
Major Glenn's counsel declared, also, at the
trial that the water cure is regarded as ne
cessity in the Philippine Islands by both Span
iards and insurgents; that it is not dangerous
to life and not especially painful. although 1t
Is very unpleasant. and that Major Glenn him.
self personally underwent the water cure before
he administered it to the guide and in exactly

PANAMA ROUTE SAVES TIME.
Onc-Third as Long to Pass Through IL
as Through the Nicaragua.

as Through the Nicaragua. q.
The time required for passing
through transisthmian canal Is an
important feature of the problem; 1t
is affected by the length, by the mum.
Der of locks, by the number of curves
and by the sharpness of the curvature.
for. in general, IL Is not feasible to run
II ship on curve In narrow channel
with the same speed as on a straight
course, unless, indeed. the curvature Is
very slight
Tho speed Is also affected by the
depth of water under the keel of the
ship. 1t Is well known that the same
power applied to Il ship In deep water
of unlimited width will produce much
higher rate of movement than the same
power applied to the same ship In u
restricted waterway, especially when
the draught of the ship is but little less
than the depth of the water.
These considerations all have their
bearing upon the dimensions of a ship
canal, and they have probably never
before received such careful considcra-
ton in connection with the designing
of a waterway as by the isthmian canal
commission. The effect of the depth
and width of the canal on the time of
passage by either route was determined
with us great degree of accuracy as
the data at the command of engineers
ut the present time will permit. Equal.
~ careful consideration was given to
the effect of curvature and TO the time
of passing through the locks on each
line. the latter including the delay of
slowing on approaching the lock and Of
increasing the speed after passing It.
the time of opening and closing the
gates and the time of emptying or I'll.
ing the locks.
The computations based upon all
these elements of the question indicate
that what may be called an average
ship will require thirty.thrce hours for
passing through the Nicaragua canal
and twelve hours for the Panama ca.
nal. II Is thus seen. says a writer In
Scribncr's, that the time o; passage
through the Panama canal will not
much exceed one-third of the time re.
