COST OF PANAMA CANAL.

1t is estimated that it will cost the
United States SlS4, 233 ,35s to acquire
and complete the Panama canal, be-
sides the amount to be PAID TO the
government in control OF the lsthmns
for the concession, says the New York
Tribune. Alread there has been an
immense amount OF money and ener-
gy expended on the canal. 1t is safe
TO say that a sum more than sum-
cient to dig a waterway from ocean TO
ocean at sea level has been collected
from investors at different times IN
its history.
When DeLesseps organized the frst
company in 1880 for the construction
OF the canal. it started work with a
paid up capital or $50, 600, 600. For
eight years the company toiled, en-
ploying at tires as many as l5,oVo
men. Then came a necessity Tor
changing the plans and the company
failed, after having collected in FOUND
figures from the sale Of stocks and
bonds $3.50, 900, 900. Of this it was
shown that the expenditures actually
made on the isthmus amounted to
sl56. 400. 600. and that the cost of the
excavation and embankment proper
was SSS, 500, 900. The ultimate cost
was then estimated AT STA, SOC, 900.
For several years an effort was made
to capitalize a new company to COM
plete the work, and at last, in 1884,
the present Panama Canal company
was organized with a paid up capital
of sl3, 600, 900. Since that time work
has advanced at the rate Of about J.
200. 900 cubic yards IF excavation each
year.
The total amount Of excavation up
to the present has been about 81 ,oO0,-
900 cubic yards. Unfortunately only
about 40, O00, 600 cubic yards OF this is
available for the waterway proposed
in 1899 1900 by the Canal Commits
sion, of which Rear Admiral Walker
was president. The Walker commits
sion's recommendations included this
available excavation in the $4,000
600 to be paid the canal company for
It's work, maps, records, drawings
and the property OF the Panama Rail
ROAD company. The commission eS-
timated that the total amount OF eX-
cavation which would be required fol-
the canal to be built from its plans.
exclusive of that for the Bohio dam
and the G%iganti spillway, would be
"a, 1853, FOB cubic yards. The work re,
manning to be done, therefore, rep
resents the difference between The
amount available OF excavation which
it will acquire by purchase from The
Panama Canal company, or nearly
three-ffths Of the entire work. 1t j:
estimated that the cost Of this "orl
will be sl44, 233, 35s in addition t
the sum to be paid to the present
owner Of the property. BY the time
it is completed more than S4J0, 900,
600 will have been obtained in one
way or another for use IN building
the canal. while nearly S3l2, 000, 00t
will have actually been spent in con
nection with its construction and ad
ministration.
1t was the intention OF the Pandm;
Canal company to make the cana
29.5 feet deep. The Increased 6imen
sions of steamers nov being built ha
made it necessary to plan for a mucl
deeper canal, and the Walker com
missions plans are for a waterwa
thirty-SiX feet deep.

WILL CALL EXTRA SESSION
If Antitrust Measure Fails At
This Session.
ROCKEFELLER USES WIRES.

Washington, Feb. lot can be
stated by authority that unless anti
trust legislation at least reasona bly,
satisfactory to the administration is
enacted at the present session. Presi-
dent Roosevelt on the 5th of March
will call an extra session of the Fifty
eighth congress The president himself
has told members of congress of his
desires and of his determination in
this regard. 1t is understood that the
announcement was direct and unquali-
fed.
1t is further stated that the deter
mination of the president was reached
only after careful consideration of the
strenuous efforts that are being made
to defeat any antitrust legislation by
congress. These efforts have covered a
wide range. They were characterized
by one prominent republican leader,
to quote him directly, as 1.-THE most
remarkable of which 1 had ever per-
sonal knowledge during my public
life
These efforts eliminated in direct
appeals from the Standard Oil COM
pany, through its president, John d.
Rockefeller, to members of the senate
not to enact any antitrust legislation
at this time. No less than six United
States senators have received kilograms
signed John D. Rockefeller" urging
that no antitrust legislation be en-
acted.
Substantially they read as follows:
1--WE are opposed to any antitrust
legislation. Our counsel, Mr.. --,
will see you. 1t must be stopped"
AS stated, these kilograms (and it
must be clear that only the substance
and rot the exact wording is here
given), were signed John D. Rookie
feller."
One of the counsel of the Standard
Oil company arrived in Washington
and called Immediately upon members
of the senate as indicated in the tele-
gram. He did not remain long; scarce
ly had he made known this when he
was informed, a bit CURLY, that his
presence here was undesirable, and he
left with an intima5ion that he would
better return to New York Then it
became known that this was not the
first time the Standard Oil company,
through its attorneys, had endeavored
to influence legislation in congress at
this session

A MUNICIPAL COAL MINE.
Chicago Negotiating for the Purchase OF
one In Illinois.

Chicago Negotiating for the Purchase OF
one In Illinois.
Chicago, Feb. 1O.-In the absence of
unexpected legal obstacles, Chicago is
likely to engage soon in coal mining.
Chairman John ]. Kelly, of the mu.
nicipal coal commission, and Assistant
City Engineer James Fl. Spengler, have
fled their report with the coal COM
mission on the result of their inspec-
ton of the property offered the city by
the Marion Coal company, near Marion,
III. While the report contains no
recommendations of any kind, it is dis
tinctly favorable in character, and both
Chairman Kelly and Mr.. Spengler
speak in friendly terms of the propo-
sition, provided, the city can accept it
without exceeding its rights
The mine is about $50 miles from
Chicago, and the main shaft is within
100 feet of the line of the Chicago &
Eastern Illinois railroad so that trans
portation facilities are all that could
be desired. The property is offered to
the commission for $4,000.
The quality of the coal is pronounced
equal to that of any of the Southern
Illinois mines, and the quantity is suf-
ticient to last at least four or five
years. It is believed that it can be
brought to Chicago and sold at an
average of S1.7O per ton for mine run,
and trifie more for select coal. The
present average price to the city at the
pumping stations is 1915.
