BUILD CANA. BY CONTRACT
Presiden. Roosevelt May Invite Contractors
From all Over the World to Bid for
Subdivisions OF the Work

CHICAGO, July 25.-A Special
dispatch to the Record Herald from
Washington, D. G says:
An important change of policy in
regard to the Panama canal is now
under serious consideration. 1t is
nothing less than the proposal that the
government abandon the effort to con.
struct the canal directly across
through ::its own agencies, and that
the whole or greater part of the en-
terprlse be let to contractors, Amer
ican or foreign. This suggestion has
been made to President Roosevelt, and
the President has discussed it with
Secretaries Taft and Root, and others
with whom he advises as to the canal
enterprise. Presindet Roosevelt is
about half way convinced that the
way to dig the canal is is to get the
job in readiness for the contractors,
subdivide the work into specialties,
and then invite the contractors of the
world to submit bids.

WANT LAND FOR COLONY
Omaha Capitalists in Western Washington
Looking for Tract Of $4,000 Acres
Of Land for One Colony

BELLINGHAM, July 25.-Omaha
capitalists now in Bellingham will
make a trip of inspection through
Whatcom county il few days with
a view to purchasing several thousand
acres of agricultural lands for colon
ization purposes. Representing the
Omaha people is Glen @. Wharton, an
Omaha capitalist, who arrived in Bel
lingham today In company with W. E..
Bennett, land agent for the Canadian
government. Mr.. Wharton admits
that it is possible the Omaha man may
close deal for an immense tract Of
land in this county.
Mr.. Wharton's company operates
on large scale and should it become
interested here it would take upward
of so, 900 acres. He declares that so,
900 acres is usually the minimum.
In this county there are many blocks
of agricultural and timber lands avail
able for the Omaha concern, and it is
possible that some purchases will be
made in other Puget Sound counties

FLOATING COFFIN
The Gunboat Bennington is Floating Coffin

Machinist Wheeler Last February

STOCKTON. Cal. July rs" The

Chief Macbinist G. G. Wheeler last
February when he said goodbye to his
mother, Mrs. @. @. Wheeler, of this
city, when he returned to his post on
the naval vessel. He realized he was
going on a dangerous mission. He
now lies among the wounded at San
Diego.

EIGHT WOMEN SERIOUSLY INJURED
IN A BARGAIN DAY
STAMPEDE
2,5oo IN THE FIGHT
PITTSBURG STORE TURNED INTO
TEMPORARY HOSPITAL FOR
THE INJURED

PITTSBURG, July 25.-" Bargains.
Mems overalls 10 cents; mems shirts
10 cents"
The above sign in the window of a
store on Fifth avenue at noon today
caused a disastrous stampede of bar
gain hunters. Eight women were SER
iously hurt in the rush to secure over
alls or shirts for the men folks, and a
reserve force of police had to be call
ed out in the downtown district. Am
balances and patrol wagons backed up
to the doors of the store and for a
time it looked as though there would
be great loss of life.
AS result of the trouble and dan
ger incurred it Is likely there will be
a rule issued by the police against
bargain day sales in Pittsburg.
Mrs. Mary Hoover was the worst
hurt of the women who got caught in
the crush. She tainted at the head of
a stairway and would have fallen to
the lower story had the crowd not
been too dense. She was held up in
the crush apparently dead. More
than a dozen women fell in faint
and the police had to use their clubs.
After about 2,5OO of the omen had
got out of the store, which by this
time looked like wreck, it was turn
ed into hospital and the injured wo-
men revived and sent to their homes.
The condition of Mrs. Hoover is
considered serious.

LONDON PAPERS CONSIDER THE
SPEECH EXCEEDINGLY IN.
DISCREET.

London, Feb. 5.-A speech delivered
in the Hampshire village of Eatleigh
by Arthur Hamilton Lee, civil lord of
the admiralty, has created sensa-
ton. In dealing with the recent dis
tribution of Great Britain's naval
force, Mr.. Lee frankly declared that
Great Britain has not so much to keep
her eyes on France and the Mediter-
ranean, but had to look with anxiety,
though not with fear, toward the
North sea. The fleets, he said, had
been so distributed as to enable. them
to deal with any danger in that direc-
ton should anything unfortunate oc-
cur.
If war should unhappily be declared,
continued Mr.. Lee, under existing cir
cumstances, the British navy would
Get Its Blow in First,
before the other side had time to read
in the papers that war had been de-
clared. He maintained that "by recent
naval reforms Great Britain's strength
as a naval fighting power had been
practically doubled during the last
few weeks.
The speech, which was delivered at
railway dinner and was in nowise
political in character, is commented
upon in some of the London morning
papers as exceedingly indiscreet and
likely to be resented by Germany, az
which it evidently pointed.
