FAV0RS PANAMA ROUTE.

Engineer Morrison, of the Canal
Mr.. George N. Morrison, one of the en-
gineer members of the Isthmian Canal
Commission, was yesterdays witness be-
fore the Senate Committee on Interoceanic
Canals.
His testimony was very strongly in IA
vor OF the Panama route, which he said
presented fewer engineering obstacles
than that across Nicaragua.
The question CT the control OF the Cha
gres River had been solved to the COM
plete satisfaction of practical engineers
he said, and there would be no difficulty
in securing an ample supply OF water at
the summit level
Good foundations for each of the locks
and dams en- the Panama route were
available. whereas he would hesitate to
risk his reputation in the construction OF
the big dam at Ochoa, on the Nicaraguan
route.
In reply to questions regarding the tun-
mel route at San Bias recommended by
General Sorrel. Mr.. Morrison said that
while it was possible to construct a canal
there, it was impracticabIe. If any acct
dent should happen to a vessel while in
the tunnel, such as would sink her. it
would be almost impossible to get the
wreck out, as it could not be blown up
without endangering the tunnel.

margarine, was greatly Disguised with the
action OF the House Tuesday and yester-
day upon that measure.
Il think | will go back home. he said
yesterday. "and let the matter 30. 1t is
enough to discourage one.
Because Ex-Governor Hoard and Sec

Representative McCleary about the bill,
stating that from my point of view there
was danger in making any change in the
language of the Grout bill, they felt that

be perfectly justiiiable.

ture yesterday began Offering amendments
to itg own bill, and thereby disclosed diff
ferences between the advocates of the
bill disorganizatlon Of the supporters

The bill has been amended in such

or for his opinion as TO the merits and
form OF the measure.
| The bill was a few DAYS ago referred
to the Police Department for considera-
ton and report.
Sanitary Officer J. \. Frank commended
its provisions and expressed the opinion
that its adoption would meet long recog-
nized want.
Major Sylvester's Opinion.
Major Sylvester. in forwarding this re-
port to the Commissioners, stated that in
his opinion the proposed measure covers
the ground to better advantage thnp any
legislation yet brought TO his attention
This bill was drafted by Dr. ID. Percy
Hickling. and in speaking of its provi-
ai0ns to a Times reporter yesterday. he
said that it put into legal form the prin-
cipal practices that have grown up in the
Police Department in the management of
the insane. He said the main purpose of
the proposed law is to remove the stigma
now attaching to the detention of persons
who are insane.
DR.. Kicking described the rircum-
stances in which man and his family
find themselves when his mind becomes
affected and he should be subjected to
treatment.
He said that there was no legal way to
treat such man but to cause his arrest
aud temporary detention in the Govern
ment Hospital for the Insane. Dr.. Hickiing
said that this procedure was attended by
more or less excitement and feeling
of humiliation on the part OF tie patl,n:
Very often the end sought was defeated
by the means used and the mans maladv
was considerably aggravated thereby.
Gives No Idea of COnstraint.
The author of the bill! said that if it
should become law the machinery for
the temporary detention of the man would
work along lines less harsh and that tn,
patient would entirely lose the idea that
he was being constrained. The method
of enquiry into the condition Of the
patient by two physicians and the tenn
porarv detention CT the patient in hos

pending before the House Judiciary Com

committee will accept the Senate bill.

for the House bill.
An effort will be made by the friends
OF the measure to secure vote on it at
as early day as possible, so that it can
be sent to the State Legislatures for con-
sideration. Unless the bill to change
the date of Inauguration is passed at this
session it will be too late for it to take
effect at the time proposed. 1905.
In order for the amendment to become

NAVY YARD EXTENSION.
Acting Secretary Darling Submits
records to the Senate.

Acting Secretary Darling, OF the Navy
Department. has sent to the Senate a
voluminous copy OF all the papers and
reports relating to the proposed extern
sion OF the navy yard to the east and west
Of its present quarters.
The papers contain the correspondence
with the owners of the property which
it is proposed to puchase.
A bill for the purchase of the land to
the west of the yard was up before the
last Congress. but was not passed. One
argument against the bin at that time
was that the prices at which the land
was offered by the owners were too high.
The estimated cost of the extensions as
made by the chief of the Bureau of Yards
and Docks of the Navy Department and
included in this report is 1884. 1880 for
the eastern extension and $133.70O for the
western extension.
