NEW YORK. Aug. 22.-Referring to
" the fact that the construction Of
the Panama canal will necessi-
tate the transportation of hundreds Of
cargoes of construction material. food
supplies for workmen, etc, the Journal
Of Commerce says:

of the Panama canal interests that the
material required in the construction of
the canal will certainly exceed $4,000
600. in addition to food supplies. This
material will consist very largely of
cement granite. lumber and machinery.
The lumber viii undoubtedly come
largely from Oregon and that section
Of the country. and Will not be a mat

the government at Washington with
view to seeing if some WAY cannot be
decided upon whereby this enormous
carrying movement may be confined to
American ships

for the reason that a large number OF
fruit vessels are available for the serv-

than could. American vessels. which
must make their entire expenses on
such southbound cargo and return

L. Fair and Mrs. Fair, which will be
forwarded to Cherbourg from here this
afternoon.
The remains of the Fairs were still in
the Church of the Madeline late this
afternoon, their removal having been
coUntermanded at the last moment,
owing to some formality not being COM
piled with
Later.-There is evidently some mys-
terry connected with the fact that the
bodies of Mr.. and Mrs Fair have not
been shipped from Paris. II was orig
inaIIy arranged that the bodies be
withdrawn from the Church of the
Madeline at ) o'clock this afternoon.
At that hour two undertakers' vans
were waiting at the door of the vault
to receive the collins, when orders came
sending them away until half-past 3
o'clock tonight. At this hour the vans
were again on time, but the removal
Of the bodies were again countermand-
ed. and it is believed their removal has
been postponed until an indefinite date.
In the meanwhile, lawyers represent
ing the families Of Mr.. and Mrs. Fair
have been cloSeted at the American
consulate here all the evening with
Consul General John K Gowdy. who.
it is understood. cabled Washington
earlier in the day for instructions in
the matter. 1t is impossible definitely
to ascertain the object of this consulta-
ton. but it is reported that the lawyers
representing one party desires that a
post norton examination be held before
the bodies leave France Mr.. Gowdy
has received no reply to his eabIegram
addressed to Washington.
Mr.. Ellis. manager of the Hotel Ritz,
where the Fairs had apartments at the
time of their death. has charge of the
shipping arrangements. When ques-
toned today he was very reticent- He
said the shipment of the bodies had
been postponed because definite in
structions for forwarding them had not
been received from the family of Mr..
Fair He professed to know no other
reason why they should not be moved.
and said they would not be shipped I'M
