CANAL GOVERN MENT
CONSIDERED BY
COMMITTEE ON COMMERCE.
Views of Gen. Davis and Prof. Burr
Heard-Machinery Suggested for
Simple Control.

The House committee on interstate and
foreign commerce today continued its hear
ings on the question of legislation to gov
ern the canal zone. Representative Harri-
son of New York made a request to be
heard at a later date on his bill to that
end, and also asked that Representative
Bourke Cochran and Judge McClain Of New
York also be heard. Gen. Davis and Prof.
Burr, member of the new canal commis-
sion, were heard today. Gen. Davis in
dicated that in his opinion 1t was not nee
essary to enact any legislation for the
government of the canal zone at present
He, however. did not object to the pro-
visions of the Lowering bill.
General Davis called attention to the pro-
visions for executive regulations contained
in the bib providing for the construction
of the canal, and suggested that they were
ample to cover all needs in this direction.
Suggesting the machinery for the gov
ernment of the zone, he mentioned the ap-
pointment of a governor or project, chosen
from the commission. In addition there
should be secretary of state, an attorney
general, treasurer sanitarian, superinten-
dent of schools, justices of the peace, police
judges and three judges of the courts OF
the first instance.
Cost of Sanitation.
The work of sanitation would cost $780,
600 the first year. and the policing of the
zone would necessitate the expenditure OF
100000 a year. Autonomy for the people
of the zone, General Davis believed, to be
a thing for distant consideration. The ma
ture of the work would attract the rougher
or criminal classes. The total cost - ad-
ministering the government after the pre-
liminary expenses has been met would
amount to 1,GO0.010, according to the be-
lief of General Davis.
Leaving out the question of politics. Gen.
Davis said that coOlie labor would be the
most economical in the building of the
canal He thought the zone and the cities
of Panama and Colon could be made as
healthful as Havana or other tropical coun-
tries, and that the health OF Americans need
not necessarily suffer there, although
Americans would not do the work Of
laborers there. The prevailing wages on
the canal now, he said, were from 80 to 20
cents day.
Prof. Burr declared that he concurred
with everything General Davis had advanc-
ed. He was questioned closely by Chairman
Hepburn as to what account was taken by
the previous canal commission, of which he
was n member, as TO added cost at Panama
over Nicaragua because of the unhealthy
conditions at the former place. He replied
that this item of additional cost had not
been figured on in detail, but that a general
average had been figured on, and 20 per
cent added to the estimates in both in
stances for sanitation, etc. Prof. Burr will
continue his stat ement to the committee to-
morrow.

tistics of the Department of Commerce and
Labor show that during the month of Feb

S77, ,762. while for the same month In 1903

February, 1903, were $50, ,e22, ,246 and for
February, 1904, they were sSs 7Ss.721. This
shows an excess of exports over imports for
that month In 1893 of $42 953, ,I7S. and for the
same month in 1904 of $50, ,OS9,O41
For the eight months ending February,

LOOKING FOR A DASH
Believe Russian Fleet Will
Abandon Port Arthur.
SEEMS PLAIN TO JAPS
TOGO UNWILLING TO RUN RISK
OF DIVIDING SQUADRON.
Speculation as to Route the Russian
Ships Would Take to Reach
Vladivostok.
SEEMS PLAIN TO JAPS

TOKYO. March 15.-It is strongly be-
feved here that the Russian fleet aband-
oned Port Arthur after the fourth attack
was made upon 1t by the japanese fleet,
and is endeavoring to reach Vladivostok
Confirmation of this movement Is not OBJ
tainable from any reliable source, but re-
cent scouting in the vicinity OF Port
Arthur has failed to reveal the presence OF
any Russian warships.
1t seems logical enough that the Russians
should attempt dash for Vladivostok
where 1t is possible to dock larger ships
effect junction with their armored cruiser
squadron and secure base for operations
while possessing adequate land defenses
The hopelessness of continuing at Port Ar
thur is manifest, while a dash for Vladl-
vostok might succeed. contrary to the opin-
ion previously expressed.
Vice Admiral Togo is unwilling to run the
risk of dividing his battle ship squadron,
and continues to operate the six battle ships
together. No..
If the Russians should make an attempt
to reach Vladivostok it is believed they will
try q dash through the Korean straits,
rather than enter the Japan sea through
the Sugaru straits.
