weather certainly did keep the business
down. and while many articles Of clothing,

out the cold got dusty on the counters and
shelves. Today is the first normal Satur-
day we have had since early in January,
or right after the post-holiday slump.
THE crowds today have not been extraor-
binary, but seem large, owing to the scar
city of shoppers on the successive line OF
cold days that have gone before. 1t was
however that each customer
bought more than usual, and seemed to be
making an effort to make up for lost time.
For instance, we had sale on shirts and
disposed Of just 215 dozens, or the entire
stock. 1t Is safe to say that no similar rec
ord was ever made on shirts in Omaha.
Tonight is hardly fair business Satur-
day evening and yet the crowds seem large
because they have been lacking for so long.
A feeling of activity and cheerfulness is
pronounced, though, and every merchant
in town is rejoicing over the thaw.'

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-Presi-

strongest terms the necessity for plan
OF construction of the Panama canal
which may be accomplished in the
shortest possible time. In his recent
remarks TO the consulting board of
of the isthmiau canal commission,
the President said;
"There are two OF three consider
etions which | trust you will steadily
keep before your minds in coming to
a conclusion as to the proper type of

prove possible to build sea level

eddy be the best in the end if feasible,
and feel that one of the chief ad
vantages of the Panama route is that

possibility. But while paying due

STOLE time If to build sea level
canal will but slightly increase the
risk, then of course it is preferable,
but if TO adopt plan OF a sea level
canal means TO incur hazard and to
insure al indefinite delay, then it is
not preferable. If the advantages and
disadvantages are closely balanced, /
expect you to say so. | desire also to
know whether, if you recomend high

into or to substitute Cor it in time, a
