1T is SAID.

New York, July lit has been
learned upon the highest authority tha.
Engineer John F. Wallace was lured
away from the Panama Canal Commits
sion by George Westinghouse. Of the
Westinghouse Electric Company.
Westinghouse, IL is known, has a
scheme to build electro railroads to
parallel steam railroads wherever
there is an apparent chance of profit
able competition.
The belief is current that the main
object of Westinghouse and those who
are to be associated with him Is to
compel the railroads to buy the cleo
trio roads in order thar there may be
no rate slashing
1t Is suspected that In some in
stances the railroads themselves viii
be parties to the scheme with a view
to preventing the construction of cleo
trio roads by unfriendly interests.
Wallace is to be the head of the
enterprise and, in addition to a SALARY
of $G5, 900 per annum, is promised op
portun ties to obtain stockholdings anC
profits out Of the deals contemplated.

left the lsthmus of Panama that tn,

increase his salary to the figure offere,
by Westinghouse, and that he woul'
be permitted to direct canal opera
tions from this country.
