PANAMA CANAL ZONE.
Taft and Walker Give Opinions
Regarding its Government

Washington, March lS.-Secretary
TAFT was heard today by the house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce on the subject OF construct
ing the Panama canal. The secretary
favored the pending Lowering bill for
the government OF the canal zone.
Secretary Taft was also questioned
by members Of the committee regard
ing his views as to the proposed meth
DDS Of expanding the money for the
construction Of the canal He said
the president primarily was RESPONSE
BILE for this large sum of money, but
the gigantic proportions Of the work
and the duties Of the president other
wise made II, of course, impossible for
him to give his persona. attention to
such matters.
In the commission the president UNI
doubtedly had made the proper deega-
ton Of his authority on this subject, IL
there was any question az 10 this, the
secretary said that contracts in ex-
cess of s2.O00,0O for instance, might
be referred TO the secretary OF war or
some other member OF the presidents
cabinet or other person whom the pres
ident might designate for review. The
engineering features OF the work would
make the secretary OF war the most
available and best equipped official for
this work.
In answer TO question by Chairman
Hepburn as to whether a requirement
should be made that each member Of
the commission should reside on the
canal strip. secy. Taft smilingly
replied that from his own experience Of
life In the tropics he knew that such
lie could be made very pleasant.
with the amount OF money which
the canal commission will have at hand
! should imagine they should be able
20 make life quite attractive on the
canal zone" he continued.
Admiral Walker made a detailed de-
scriptlon Of the methods OF oxpenling
money by the last canal commission,
OF which he was president, lie said
that President Mckinley had delegated
him 90 the executive head OF the COM
mission and when the committee or.
ganI2ed the entire supervision OF the
expenditure of money was left In his
hands. No resolution ever was passed
by the commission regarding the policy
OF expanding money or the details OF
any single expenditure.
Following line OF questions asked
by Chairman Hepburn regarding the
selection OF canal routes recommended
by the commission, Admiral Walker
explained that the law required the
commission to select the route most
feasible and economical which the
United states could own and operate.
Nicaragua was selected first because
sl0l, 900 was asked for the Panama
concession by the French company,
which put that route entirely out Of the
question as compared with Nicaragua.
When the price was reduced 10 $40 O00,-
900 and title assured, the conditions
were changed and the commission re-
ported In favor Of the Panama route.
The hearings will be continued on Mon
day.

TRUST INVESTIGATION.
Rep. Hearst Introduces q Resolu.
ton Calling for One.

Washington, March lS.-Representa-
tie Hearst Of New York today intro.
duced a resolution providing for an in
vestigation of the trust question by a
committee Of five members of the house
The resolutions contain 10 clauses reclt-
ing the evil effects Of trusts on the
country, among them being the follow
ing:
Numerous Illegal combinations
known as trusts have been formed TO
absorb or eliminate competition and es-
tablish virtual monopolies with view
TO controlling production and raising
the price of their products,
Such extortionate trusts as the beef
trust and the coal trust and the Ice
trust have arbitrarily increased the
cost OF the necessities Of life TO the
public.
Such speculative trusts as the ship
yards trust and the steel trust have in
fiated their stock to many times Its ac-
tual value and sold TO the public, trans
wi Hls VIC ptolle liplltl lLtlll pdllhS
and legitimate investments into the
pockets Of trust promoters and specu-
latOrs.
industrial unrest has been fomented
by the Increased cost Of living and by
the consequent necessary efforts OF Ia
Dor TO make It's wages keep pace with
the Increased cost OF living,
Such trusts as the steel trust, In
spite OF the Increased cost Of living,
haya ruthlcssly cut down the wages Of
hund,eds Of thousands of employees In
order TO pay dividends on watered
stock. and other trusts have wholly
collapsed, throwing hundreds Of thou
sands OF workmen out Of employment
THE purchasing power Of the COM
munity has been diminished by the In
creasing demands of the trusts by UNI
sound and reprehensible methods which
have misled the people, swindled them
and robbed them of their savings.
IAN classes OF the community are be-
Ing made to feel the evil influences Of
the unrestrained greed and lawless
practises Of the trust
The committee Is directed to inform
the house fully on the trust situation,
to the end that more effective laws
may be prepared and passed by Con-
rress regulating and restricting COM
binatlons The committee is emp0w-
cred to send for persons aud papers. An
additional resolution states that 1t is
the sense OF this house and II does rec
ommend that the laws already existing
against the trusts be I'm the meanwhile
enforced by the executive branch OF
this government and the legal repre-
sentatives thereof
The resolutions were referred to the
committee on rules.

RECENT TEST OF skYscRAPERs
Carried on at Boston's Insurance Engi-
neering Experiment Station.

From Harper'S Weekly.
Experiments involving the permanency
of structural steel covered with concrete
or cement have recently been carried on
at the Insurance Engineering Expert
ment Station at Boston; they prove that
steel properly covered is absolutely safe
against corrosion. In steel buildings and
other structures the frame work is COW
cred with cement or concrete of some
kind and 1t is impossible to observe what
changes are taking place, and for this
reason doubts have been expressed as to
their permanency. 1t has been assumed,
however, by engineers that steel pro-
tected with such coatings would not be
corroded. and this was found to be the
case with the cables of the first Niasara
suspension bridge. which, after remain
ing imbedded for a number of years, We're
found to be in excellent condition. To
allay any skepticism as to the perma-
nency of many modern steel-frame struc-
lures, and to prove that the protection
of the steel by cement or concrete was
satisfactory and efficacious, the expert
ments referred to Were undertaken. The
experiments served to show that care
must be observed in mixing the concrete
and that when due precaution is taken
the steel is perfectly protected. Accord
ingly, it is fair to assume from this work
