Novel Plan That is Proposed to

Varilla.
Especial 10 The Times -plspatci,)

WASlllNGTON,E -. @, September 10.
The Board OF Consulting Engineers Of
tho Isthmlan Canal Commission to-day
devoted Its time to hearing an eXplana-
tion Of tho plans for canal which Mr.,
Bunau-Varllla and Linden w. Bates. re-
spectlvely, have formulated
Mr., B,muu-Varilla told the board that
under his proposed method canal could
be built ana put into operation within
FIVE years. IT could bo deepened to u
sea level canal within FIVE years more.
Tho novel feature of his plan Is to
construct the locks from foundation
below sea level, The highest lock on
the canal as flushed first would be 1s0
feet above sea level, With tho locks
built down to tho sea level depth, the
work of dredging the canal could be
continued without interruptng Its ope-
ration for commerce. Tho same locks
could be utilized at every depth until
sea level was reached, when tho locks
could be taken out.
The plan OF Mr., Bates ls essentially
different from that being studied by the
hoard In the location and Arrangement
OF tho dams, Mr., Bates proposes To-
kaslng the ,hrlncipal dams on either
side of the Isthmus close to the sea,
thus conserving the waters from the
streams into two mammoth lakes.

9 London Lancet" Says Those ut Chicago
Menace the Health OF the World.

CHICAGO. Feb. 2s-Raferring to the
Chicago stock yards as those truly Au-
gean stables special sanitary commis-
sioner Of the London Lancet writes in the
issues OF that Journal strongly condemnins
tho methods employed by the packers and
recommending stringent laws for better
sanitation for the stock yards die trict.
The investigator says the health OF the
world ~ at the mercy of the unsanitary
conditions prevailing at the Chica 90 stock
yards.
Here ara some OF the strongest passages
from bis report
THE whole nation should rise and insist
upon the sweeping out Of those truly Augean
stables known as the Chicago stock yards
Tho municipality Of Chicago should
build modern slaughter houses according
70 modern principles Of sanitary science.
"A law should be enacted prohibiting
private slaughter houses
The conditions Of the Chicago packing
industry affect the health of the entire
world.
The conditions prevailing within this
giant industry are almost inoonceivable.
The larger death rate prevailing within
the stock yards district IA due 10 the condi-
tons OF employ ment and not to the dwell
ings OF the workers
Local packers resent the charge Of the
Lancet that the stoCkyards are unclean
and dangerous and n menace 10 the worlds
health. Arthur + White department mana
ger for Swift 4 CO., declares the premises
around the yards are as clean IA any kitchen
The suggestion Of the Lancet for a municipal
abattoir does not meet with favor.
