GEN. WOOD AND THE CANAL.
His Interest in the Isthmian Water
way Confined to Sanitary Con-
ditiOns Along Route.

Information received from relia BILE
sources throw an entirely different
light on reports from Oyster Bay that
President Roosevelt was thinking of
directing Brig. Gen. Leonard Wood
to take charge of American affairs on
the isthmus of Panama during the
construction of the Panama canal. Gen.
Wood is much interested in the canal
project from a sanitary standpoint,
and he has urged upon the president
the Importance of sending to the 18TH
mus an expert in sanitary engineering
to carry out arrangements for the bet
ter protection of those engaged in
building the great waterway, and also
to provide means for improving the
health conditions in the strip through
which the canal will run.
Gen. Woods interest in this matter
comes from the fact that he is a physi-
clan, as we'll as a soldier. 1t is under
stood that he does not care for the
assignment himself. The Oyster Bay
stories are said to have emanated prob
ably from imperfect knowledge of what
Gen. Wood has been telling the presi-
dent about the Importance of improv-
ing the isthmus from the standpoint of
hygiene.
