canal On Monday morning Secretary Iall anu
Mr Stevens will go the works at Empire
CITY and Culebra Cut, and afterward Will go py
boat from Mindi to Colon, examining at the same
time the harbor improvements at Christobal
Secretary Taft informed The Associated Fress
that he was much pleased with the situation
here which he said he found had greatly
changed for the better since his last trip he
work on the canal was progressing satisfacto-
rily and that the chaotic stage had disappeared
and the work was now efficiently organized lie
was happy to notice that the spirit of the men
on the canal had improved, and that the depres-
sion of five or six months ago did not now exist
All of them seemed to enjoy life here were inter-
ested in their work and were confident that the
canal could and would be constructed.
The Secretary said that he had found the
sanitary conditions excellent. and he believed
that by continuing the present methods yellow
fever could be controlled, or at least It's raw
ages considerably diminished. He thought the
should be- but said that he did not contem-
plate making a change until the men had fair
trial. The establishment of commlssaries,
where they could get proper food, he added,
should raise their efficiency
He is optimistic regards future work on
the canal, and seems to have absolute faith that

can accomplish what Americans expect OF them

HUGE LOCKS WOULD BE REQUIRED
What Subcommittee Will Report to 18th
mian Canal Board.

Washington Nov. 4.-The members of the 18TH
r,tan Canal Board, who. acting subcommittee.
have been charged with the preparation of plans
for lock canal met again to-day and advanced
so well with their work that they now expect to
he able to present report to the full board at its
,oee+inp next Tuesday. Some astonishing figures.
illustrative of the magnitude of this undertaking,
have been developed in the course of the work
For instance, at the Culebra Cut, under the JOCK
nroiect of several series of locks required
to lift the great liners to the highest level
of the canal will be made up of compartments ag-
gregating in length $500 feet, more than two
thirds of a mile and each lock must be 800 feet
broad Some idea of the water pressure on these
locks and their dimensions may be gained from the
fact that one of gates would be 80 feet high.
10 feet broad and weigh 100000 pounds The board
estimates that at least years time will be
occupied in the construction of these locks
