AN IMPORTANT
CANAL DECISION
Material For Construction to be Pur.
chased in Markets Of World.
WILL BUY SHIPS IN EUROPE

Washington. May 16.-The executive
mission decided To purchase in the
markets OF the world the material and
ships necessary for the building Of the
Panama canal.
This important decision was reach d
with some reluctance. because 1t was
appreciated by Secretary Taft and the
executive committee that there would
surely be a great cutlery from two
great interests In this country. and
producers of material and the ship
owners II the purchases were not linz
tied to the American products. But Il
was decided that the money consider
alton was SO great that 1t could not ne
ignored. for II was held that in cases
fully SO per cent more would be
charged for material needed In canal
construction than the same goods could
be procured for In Europe. Chief Engi-
neer Wallace. for instance. showed that
two ships. In addition to those running
between New York and Colon and
owned by the Panama Railroad COM
pany. were absolutely necessary to
carry the food supplies and material
needed for the work. No American
ships could be bought at any reason
able price. and when II came to build
Ing such ships ii was found. according
to Secretary Taft's statement. that
while he could buy two 6000-ton ships
In Europe for $4,000 1t would cost
81. 400. 900 to build such ships here And
In addition. while the European ships
could be had at once II would take ut
least 10 months to secure American
boats Therefore Il was decided to buy
the ships in Europe or rather In any
port where they could be had cheap
est and obtained the quickest AS To
material needed for canal construction.
the committee decided, that by reserv-
ing to itself the right to purchase in
the worlds markets. II would at least
oblige American manufacturers to give
them the benefit of their foreign prices
II they wish to sell goods to the COM
mittee.
Secretary Taft explained that he felt
Obliged 10 endorse this decision be-
cause. having given congress every op-
portunity to give contrary direction.
he felt that the very terms of the canal
act provided that II should be con-
structed at the lowest possible cost

Digestion furnishes nutrition for the
nerve centers. Properly digcsted food
furnishes these reservoirs of life with
vitality which leads to strong, steady
nerves, and thus nourishes life.
Peruna is in great favor among
women, especially those who have voca-
tions that are trying to the nerves.
Peruna furnishes the lasting vigor
for the nerves that such people need.
Thousands of testimonials from

Nervousness is very common among

the reservoirs of nervous vitality. These
