TREES FOR A DEPOT PLAZA.
Adjournment Grounds About Union

The selection of trees for the new

being considered with great interest
by Engineer Commissioner BiGdle. by

Looking TO the attainment of these
several ends the search for Il desirable
species of tree has narrowed down in

Probably the longest rows of pin
oaks in Washington are on PennSyl-
vania avenue southeast east of Elev-

on the same thoroughfare are red oaks.

in large numbers has been urged, but it
has been decided they would not stand
the climate so well as the Cinnamon.
Negroes from the States, it is urged
by many, would do more work with
less sickness than all the Others. 1t Is
advanced that they built the Missis-

the southern states, where conditions
according to many judges, are worse
than at Panama. 1t is said the diff
Guilty OF making a sufficient number of
southern negroes believe this would
make the effort to engage them a waste
of time If the Cinnamon do well they
will replace the West Indian negroes
now at work. In the meantime the ne
groes are leaving almost as fast as
others can be brought to the isthmus.
To make them happier the commission
decided to provide them with wives
and sweethearts. The first shipload Of
women from Martinique arrived re-
Gently and was quickly distributed
along the Zone. The women were well
coined by the American families. for
until they might set up housekeeping
it was thought they would make excel

did not work very long. Most Of the
