THE PANAMA ROUTE.
A Railroad Man Tells Of the DiHicul-
ties Encountered in Digging an Hsth-
mia

Washington, Feb. IS. w. Plume,
of New Orleans, testified yesterday
before the senate committee on in
ter-occanic canals concerning the
feasibility of the Panama route for
a canal. Mr.. Plume is a contractor
and railroad man and in the latter
capacity spent five years as roadmas-
ter of the Panama railroad. lie said
the difficulty of eXcavating canal
in that region would be very great
because of the character OF the soil.
1ne country is full of small springs,
which keep the soil in such moist
condition that it is quite difficult to
handle it except in the most tedious
and expensive manner.
He also spoke of the section as the
most unhealthy on the American con-
tinent, saying that of 50 men sent to
the isthmus as engineers, superin-
tendents, clerks, etc, all but three
had died within three months.

Actually Infectious.

The American congress of tubercu- losis, which has been in session at New York, adopted a resolution de- claring tuberculosis "an acute infec- tious disease;" also the following resolutions:
 "Whereas, Tuberculosis is an in fectious disease ordinarily communi cated from person to person by means of the dried sputum of a con sumptiye patient; and
 "Whereas, The spread of tubercu- losis could be largely controlled by proper care of such sputum and the enforcement of comparatively simple measures; therefore be it
 Resolved. By the American con gress of tuberculosis, that the health authorities be urged to designate to the widest extent possible through the public press and otherwise, cor rect information as to the manner in which this disease is produced, and the means to be employed for its pre- vention.
 Resolved. That we believe it to be the duty of the national, state and municipal governments to enact rational methods for the prevention of tuberculosis, and we recommend the establishment of institutions for the care of indigent cousumptives.
 Resolved, That there should be state and municipal supervision of all public conveyances for the transpor- tation of passengers, and in view of the fact that splitting on the floors of public conveyances favors the spread of tuberculosis and is injurious to the public healt5, it is recommended that transportation companies be in duced to pass and enforce rules against this act.
 Resolved. That appropriations should be requested from state and municipal governments for the publi- cation and distribution of literature as a means of education in the pre- vention of the spread of tuberculosis.
 Resolved, That all cases of tuber- culosis should be reported by the at tending physician to the health boards for the purpose of disinfect ing of houses occupied by consump- lives y

BOiIermakers' Strike Of.

George E. Henderson, superintend- ent of machinery and motive power of the Santa Fe system, spent yester- day in the city, inspecting the machin- cry at the local shops. He continued his jurney cast last night in a special car attached to passenger No. $. MT. Henderson talks freely of the boiler makers strike situation at Needles and San Bernardino. He says that all difficulties have been removed, and the men in the shops at both places are now working smoothly; At San Bernardino, where before the strike eleven men were at work there are now eighteen working. At Needles the working force has been increased in similar proportions.
 The primary cause for the strike, MT. Henderson gives as follows: We had a man by the name of Wilson working at San Bernardino. Tenn porary work at Seligman made it necessary to transfer Wilson to that place for work. Wilson objected, thinking that the transfer would be permanent. SO he took his troubles to the union, hence the strike"
 "The report that the new men shipped to San Bernardino would not go to work, is not true" said Mir. Henderson. Every new man we have shipped to Needles and San Bernar- dino are working and are the best machinists we have in our employ"
 After short stay in Topeka NIT. Henderson will go east and study the strike conditions of some of the east ern roads, which at present exist.- Albuquerque Citizen.

Target Range Wanted.

The soldiers stationed at Whipple are experiencing some difficulty in securing a suitable range for target practice. Captain Hatch received
 instructions from Washington to se- cure range grounds as speedily as possible that target practice might b. commenced. The only suitable grounds in the immediate vicinity be- ing those owned by Gov. F. A. Tritle, Captain Hatch consulted with him as to the possibility of obtaining the use of the ground for that purpose. On investigation it was found that to se- cure the required range of 1000 wards it would necessitate shooting within the corporate limits of the city, which would be in conflict with a city ordinance, hence not practical. Gov. Tritle suggested that "the only feasible plan will be to go east of the county road for the initiatory station and get the 1000 yards eastward over and beyond the graveyard Iuto the range of hills" thereby avoiding all danger of accident from the practice.

A Whopper.

A special dispatch to the Denver News from Guthrie, Okla, states that on Wednesday last the Santa Fe es- tablished a new train record in mak- ing the run from Purcell, I. T., to Ardmore, distance of 67 miles, in 34 minutes. The regular passenger from the north was four hours late on account of the washouts. The pas sengers did not know the speed of the train until informed at Purcell. The run, which is almost at the rate of two miles minute, is considered phenomenal by local railroad men.
 I'd like to know the engineer who did the driving on that run," said a Santa Fe engineer yesterday. five been over that run myself and it isn't one to prompt a nan to try for speed records, still it may be possible to make that kind of time. The modern engine will do almost anything in the way of speed if you can keep it on the rails, and the roadbed down there is in fine shape. But the engi- neer must have left hot rail behind him. ."-Albuquerque Democrat.

HypnOtized the Club.

Later information concerning the proceedings of the meeting of the young democratic club explains more
 fully the reason why the resolution endorsing Col. Wilson was put away on Ice. It seems that the club was captured by young republicans. Our democratic contemporary reported that J. E. Morrison was among the speakers of the evening, leaving the inference that MT. Morrison had gone over to the enemng. This, however, is a mistake. Mir. Morrison has a
 number of personal friends who are young democrats" They invited him to their meeting just to be 5ociable. He went with them, ex- pecting to play the role of spec tator. After getting him there they invited him to make speech. He saw in the invitation q good Oppor- tunity to get in some missionary work for the republican party, and declared his principles as being republican from top to bottom. His speech was able and convincing, as it was i'm mediately after its delivery that the resolution to endorse Col. Wilson was ordered filed to be voted on after election, or some other indefinite time "late in the flll.' Under the sdme inspiration of republican principles which Mir. Morrison poured forth in burning words of oratory to his young democratic" friends, the ciuh elected Howard Burmis;er, a staunch and uuilinching republican. as a member of the finance committee of the club. showing that Mir. Morrison completely hypnOtized the club. If he can only get one more opportunity to address them, he will have them change tine name of the club Co the Young Mems Roosevelt club. that resolution will be taken off the ice and after being amended to read: endorsing Cjl. Wilson, the recent convert to republicanism, for dele gate to congress" will be passed.

GRAHAM'S KINDNESS
Gets Him in Possible Trouble, Over Sale OIL
Personal Property.

Gets Him in Possible Trouble. Over Sale Of
Personal Property.
Some time ago the American Paper
Co., of Seattle, secured judgment against
J. P. Sullivan for a sum aggregating,
with costs, about $175, and Sheriff Huff
levied on the Sullivan printing office
under the execution issued in the case.
The sheriff placed Marshal Graham in
possession as keeper, and fixed July 8 as
the day of sale. Graham, out of kind
ness to Sullivan, permitted him to remain
in the office, and do What business he
could pending the sale, and now feels
that his courtesy has been lily appre-
ciated.
On Tuesday, Graham, as deputy sheriff,
went to the printing Office to make the
sale az advertised, at 2 o'clock in the
afternoon. He found the place locked
up and w. w. Anstie inside, in charge
on be salf Of Phil. S. Locke, who held a
chattel mortgage for $3.50 on the plant.
The door being locked, and admission
being refused, Graham, although nomi-
nallv in charge as keeper, did not feel
safe in forcing the door, but postponed
the sale until 5 o'clock, and notified
Sheriff Huff. Attorney Cross was pres
ent, representing the paper company,
and Attorney Hogan represented Sulli-
van. Marshal Graham delivered some
pretty straight talk to Mr.. Hogan, on the
subject, OF what he termed sharp prac-
tice, in taking advantage Of his courtesy,
in allowing Sullivan to continue in pcs
session pending the sale.
Sheriff Huff came down on the even
ing train, and his language was most
vigorous in expressing opinion on the
manner in which his office had been
abused, in failing to be as rigorous as the
law required, owing to spirit OF kind
ness having prevailed. AS the execution
expired on the Sth, the matter now rests
with the sheriff's office, with the proba-
bility that Graham, as keeper, will be
stuck for the $l75, The paper company
is having no uneasiness, having prose-
cuted its case to judgment, and issued
execution, and levied upon sufficient
property to satisfy it. They now hold
that the matter is up to the sheriff, and
will hold that official for their judgment.
This is where Marshal Graham fears he
will begin to appear, as the sheriff holds
his receipt as keeper OF the property.

disease, at Portland, Monday night, and
his body was brought to his old home,
