The international Board Of Con-
sulting Engineers who are acting
in advisory capacity to the Panama
Canal Commission voted this week
on the subject of the type of canal
to be adopted. Their decision has
not yet been made public but will be
early next week. When it is once
decided whether the canal is to be
Of the lock type or built at sea
level, the work can proceed with
more rapidity. But up to date
there has been great deal done,
how much very few people in the
United States seems to know or care.
There has been a great deal of criti-
cism Of the canal commission for
not proceeding faster. But the fact
is that the work has been pushed
as rapidly as possible considering
the number of changes in the COM
mission and engineers that have
been necessary.
The decision as to the type of
canal marks an important period
IN the work, and it is just as we'll
to consider at this moment what
has already been accomplished.
In the first place the Isthmus has
been cleaned up as it was never
thought possible to do it. In fact
the work of the sanitary corps
under Col. Gorges as been as inn
portant as the digging Of the canal
itself. For the sanitation of the
Isthmus has made it a habitable
strip. The French tried to do the
canal work without the preliminary
sanitation and failed utterly. OF
course partisan critics will profess
themselves skeptical of the amount
of work actually done. But the re-
cords of the War Department state
the following as some of the things
accomplished. A sewer system has
been advised for the town of Pana-
ma and is half completed. The
town is being paved with brick for
the easier cleaning and policing,
and there has been installed COM
Plete system of water works so that
for the first time in three centuries
the inhabitants will have good
drainage and pure drinking sup
ply. There will be three other
water systems necessary, one for
the Culebra, one Empire and a
third for CristObal and Colon. All
these are under way. By clean
ing the towns and killing the mos
quitoes, the yellow fever cases have
been reduced from 81 in June 3 to
in October. There are now Is. 600
laborers on the ground and the
rate Of sickness is only % per 900
which would be considered moder-
ate in northern climate.
