RECORDS ARE ALL OFF.
Record Committee Acts On Marks
Credited to Arthur Duffey.

New York, Nov. 20.--It was an
nounced. today. that the Amateur Ath-
letic Unior's record committee at IL
special reeting, Saturday. authorized
James +. Sullivan, secretary of the
union ard publisher of The record book,
to eliminate every mark of distinction
and championship performance with
which Arthur T. Duffey has been cred
ittd, these having been made upon the
assumption that he was an amateur as
evidenced by his signing of entry
forms. This determination by the
committee displaces the following rec
ords:
Forty yards. 4 3-5 seconds. made Feb.
10. 1899, March A, 1899. and Feb. 10, 1901,
in Boston.
Fifty yards. So seconds, made Feb.
u, 1904, in Washington.
Sixty yards, g. -5 seconds, made Nov.
80, 1899, and June !, 1902, in New York
City.
One hundred yards. 93-5 seconds,
made May 81 1902, at Berkeley Oval,
New York City.
The only championship of America
won in $780, when Duffcy beat A. G..
kraenZlein, also goes by the board.
While in every instance above men-
toned with the exception of the hun
dred' Duffey held the records jointly
with others, the century, mark of
93-5 seconds stood in 4 class by itself.
BY displacing this performance as Il
best record, the 94-5 seconds now
stands as the topmost mark at 100
1,r1inct hpinC- hold
Jointly by John Owen. Jr., w. A.
Schick. b. J. Viewers, j. II. Rush,
clyde A. Blair, Charles l.. Parsons and
w. D. Eaten.
With Dufreys name taken from the
list of winners Of the intercollegiate
championships, the new arrangement
shows as intercollegiate champions
through Duffey's displacement, the fol-
lowing men:
NJ. Il. Lightncr, Harvard. 1851; J. s.
Westncy. University of Pennsylvania,
1902; and +. j. MoultOn. Yale, 1899.

Consulting Engineers Of
the Canal Commission
Favor This Form Of Construct
ion Of the Panama Canal.
Foreign Governments Invited to Send En-
gineerS to Consult With Board.

Washington, Nov. BY vote ot
N.grt 10 five, the board of consulting
engineers of the ISthmian Canal COM
mission, Saturday. placed itself on rec
ord as favoring the construction of the
Panama canal on the sea level. Early
i'll September the engineers gathered
from all parts of the world. for the
President, DESTROYS to avail himself Of
the best talent, IS well as to avoid adj
verse foreign criticism in the future.
had called upon the governments of five
great nations, distinguished for the
successful construction of great ny
drlulic works, to send each one of their
best engineers to assist the American
engineers in the decision of the mo-
mentouS question of constructing the
Panama canal at sea level or at
greater altitude, involving a system OF
locks.
For three months the board has been
cncrossed in the study of physical data.
It went over countless blue prints and
maps, visited the iSthmuS and scanned
every inch of the route of the proposed
canal and the members had decided
when the board reconVened Ill WASH
ngton about the beginning OF this
month, on the type of canal which
they favored. 1t was not until last
Tuesday, however, that anything In the
nature of II decisive vote was taken.
The vote disclosed the fact that
majority Of the eight American mem
hers were strongly in favor Of a lock
canal. The foreigners were against the
particular type offered i'll the PROPOSE
ton but it WAS not clear at That mo-
nlent they were opposed to the whole
position of Il lock canal. The Ameri-
cans however, were not unanimous.
for there is reason to believe that three
of their number, probably General
Davis and Mr.. Parsons and Mr.. Burr
joined the foreign delegates in the vote
which was the real test. and which
recorded the board as favoring the sea
level canal.
The decision was reached about noon
ana thereby the board practically con-
GUIDED is iabors. The foreign delegates
desire t. leave for their homes by the
alth inst. To accommodate them in this
the fun board has agreed that they
NAV ,a;i:ludc some purely technical
work connected with this project, a
speci:tl meeting to be held in Paris III
Ucccmb"r OF January. The commission
il turn must now accord its own judg-
mont and there is even now belief
current that the Judgment will be adj
verse to the boards plan.
However. the commission must pass
tie plans and its own recommendation
to- the President. who. in turn, must
stamp them with his own approva!
and forward them to Congress which,
after all, will be the court of last re-
sort as between the sea level and lock
canal projects; simply through the fact
that additional Legislation will be ne
ccssary if a sea level canal is to be
built OF the board finds that such
canal will cost $15.OoO0O0 to 500, 0o9
more than the cheapest practical lock
and will consume from five to seven
wears moro in the construction.

town of Broadford from destruction.
Smoke was first seen issuing from
