PANAMA is NO CEMETERY.
Professor Burr Never Heard of sooc
Laborers Buried in Graveyard.


Washington, March 1.-THE house
commerce yesterday further heard
Professor William H Burr on the ques-
ton of sanitation of the Panama canal
route. The isthnian canal commission
had, he said, regarded the subject as
one Of the greatest Importance. The
works of sanitation would be chiefly the
construction of water works and a
sewerage system for the cities of Pan
anna and Colon and the drainage Of
districts between those cities. 1t would,
however, he said require the co. oper-
alton of the police. The people on the
isthmus have no idea of sanitary prin-
ciples. He estimated the cos at ST.
coo, 600. The completion of the canal,
he said could be accomplished in
eight or nine years.
Answering Mr.. Hepburn, Professor
Burr said that where men are careless
in their habits on the isthmus the NOR
tality is high. He had never heard that
1000 men lost their lives for every mile.
so far as work had been done upon It,
Eor had he ever heard of a graveyard,
containing 5000 graves of laborers. or
of the fact that out of 500 Chinese la
borers 500 had died in three months
Professor Burr was subjected to many
questions, mostly bearing on the
amount of excavations, made by the
two French companies, and said that
they had excavated about 100000
yards. two thirds of which was useful,
leaving ,ooO,000,000 cubic yards yet 20

Boone. March lit Is learned today
that the officers who arrived from
South Dakota yesterday and have been
quietly looking up evidence in the
candy poisoning case have pretty well
established the fact that the candy
was not mailed from Boone. as was
generally supposed. Another important
fact established by the Investigations
is that the handwriting on the package
is not that of Mrs. Dye, tho who
wrote it is mystery. Sheriff Laugh
lin, of Hughes county. S. D., and also
United States deputy marshal. whos
arrived yesterday. have been qaietly
conducting, an Investigation in con

have discovered that the address on the
box of candy was not the Gne returned
by Miss Nelson to Mr.. Dye thru Frank
Eppel in this city. That one was re-
turned last October. The one on the
candy bore the date of January 18th.
The hSslesWfit:ng was in pencil and was
disguised. Who wrote 1t is a mystery,
but the officers say it was not Mrs.
Dye. They are positive the candy was
not sent from Boone. They have been
calling on all the candy shops and drug
stores and find no fnfornna ton. The
officers stated that the postm1ortem
over Miss Nelson revealed the fact
that she was pure girl and there
was nothing wrong that would lead her

Asked if their primary object in vis-
iting Boone was the collection of new

was not. but that they thought It adj
