very politely said her mistress was

In relation to the cxcavating machin-
cry. in contradiction 10 the general
thought, 1 do not think that any very
important progress has been made as to
the kind of machinery to be used. In my
mind the only capital advantage gained is
in the substitution of electric power for
steam generation. Most of the exca-
waiting machinery now at Panama Is kept
in good condition and can be easily trans
formed in order TO substitute electricity.
The progress that has been made. like
that of powerful suction dredges. cable
way transportation of material cantii-
, ever beam transporters. such as are used
on the Chicago drainage canal. are not
able progresses. but their afflliation TO the
construction of the Panama canal would
be limited to certain special cases, and
would not afford the solution that would
appear.
