EASY TO CONTROL THE CHAGRES
Points From IsthmIan Canal Commissioner
John r. wallace.

Chief Engineer John F. Wallace Of the
Isthmian Canal, recently appointed on the
new Canal Commission arrived yesterday
by the Panama Railroad steamship Finance.
1T il surprising he said, what wrong
impressions prevail in this country about
the canal. The control Of the Chagres
River, for instance, has been much misun-
derstood. The cost Of this work will be
only per cent. Of the total cost Of building
the canal. The difference in tides between
the Pacific and the Caribbean can be con-
trolled by tide locks, although this Is not
necessary with a SEQ level canal. The tide
In the Pacific rises ten feet higher and falls
ten feet lower than II does in the Caribbean,
