MR.. CALvo's STATEMENT.
Questions Claims of the American Ba-
mana Companv


Mr.. Calvo, the Costa Rican minister ba G.
mace statement regarding the dispatch
from Mobile. Ala, saying that the Ameri-
can Banana Company had asked the State
Department to intervene in it's behalf on
account OF alleged interference by the Costa
Rican government with the company's op-
erations In the territory now belonging to
Panama, but at one time under the 1uris-
diction of Costa Rica. Mr.. Calvo said:
The contents of the dispatch do not ex-
plain where the said company obtained a
lawful title to claim any right on any part
of the territory mentioned Colombia al
ways recognized the jurisdiction of Costa
Rica thereon. Even If the claimant maintains
that 1t has obtained it from Colombia. it is
well known that under the laws of that re-
pubic no concession of this nature is valid
unless ratified by the national congress, and
no congress at Bogota has ever granted
such concession, the territory mentioned
ever having been under the jurisdiction of
Costa Rica. If 1t Is contended the conces-
sion was granted by Panama, the govern
ment of the new republic denies the exist
ence OF the alleged concession, and has ex-
plicitly declared, by resolution No. % Of
the department of government and foreign
relations, dated August ultimo, and OFF,
cially proclaimed, that Gandoka has been
and will continue to be within the jurisdic-
ton Of Costa Rica as long as the question
of boundary between the two countries Is
not finally settled.
Where, then, do the alleged concessions
come from? The GandOka region is under
Costa Rican sovereignty. and no person or
company can invoke ownership, possession
or usufruct in the said lands except upon
some title emanating from the Costa Rican
government, and no concession of any kind
has ever been made by the same to Mr.. Nc
Connell or his associates"

sion in the name Of the King of Spain.
Since then Spanish occupation has been
continuous.
LegaZpi was astonished to find the saw
ages Of Cebu worshiping the image which
Magellan had left with them. and he re-
ports that they had been worshiping it dur
ing the entire forty years that had elapsed
since 1t was left in the care of the local
chief. He says that it was dressed in green
silk robes, and was kept upon sort of
altar in a rude tabernacle, where the peo-
pie were accustomed to assemble at fire.
quent intervals to make offerings and sac
rffces to 1t. They had never received any
Christian teaching, and had no knowledge
OF the significance of the image; but they
had observed that 1t was worshiped by the
Spanfards. Hence, in their heather minds
they generated it as being sacred and con-
tinued to worship 1t as the Spaniards did,
Legazpi was not aware at the time that
the image had been left there by Magellan.
and hence was puzzled to account for it's
possession by the natives. When the facts
were afterward made known to him he
built church, which Is still standing at
Cebu, IN honor of this image, and 1t has had
the place of honor upon that altar ever
since. 1t works miracles like the Virgin of
Antipolo, and cures diseases, and is visited
annually by thousands of sick and afflicted
people. Aside from it's religious sanctity It
has great historical value and interest he
cause 1t is the only known relic of Magel-
Ian in existence.
The anniversary Of the Holy Child of Cebu
occurs on tAe-20th of January and n ia
widely celebrated, but 1t is not a nation !
holiday like that of the Virgin Of Antipolo.

Terms Of the Law.

Under the terms Of the reclamation law
the government constructs these large
projects from the reclamation fund, the
sum so expended to be returned In ten an
nual payments, without interest. by the
owners of the lands reclaimed. The funds
SO returned will be utilized In the construc-
ton Of other works, until the limits OF
reclamation have been reached. In other
words. the government Is making a ten
year loan without interest to the settlers
In the arid regions, and Is experimenting
the construction Of the necessary irrigation
works.
In each of the arid states and territories
a district engineer has been placed in
charge of the work of investigating irriga-
ton possibilities, directing the operations
of numerous field parties and preparing
preliminary plans for submission to con-
sulting boards appointed by the chief en-
gineer.
The following is list of the district en-
gineers: L. c. HILL, Arizona; Homer HAM

In Charge Of Dredge.

The big suction dredge General Gillespie
has sailed from Philadelphia under the
command of Capt. Daniel B. French OF this
city. who will take the machine under her
own steam up the coast to Boston. Capt.
French, since leaving this city about a
year ago. has been in the service of the
United States Army Engineer Corps. and
has been employed in taking a number OF
new dredges from the ports at which they
were built to other ports on the Atlantic
coast and on the great lakes. He has
safely taken one dredge from Philadelphia
to New Orleans. another from Philadelphia
to Savannah. and third to Cleveland BY
way of the st. Lawrence river and the ca
mails and the lakes. The General Gillespie,
the dredge now under Capt. French's COM
mand, was built at Baltimore for service in
Boston harbor under the army authorities.

When it is remembered that the field COW
cred by the engineers embraces an area of
approximately two-ffths of the United
States; that this region for the most part -
the widest and least known on our con-
tinent, removed from settlement and trans
portation, the progress which has been
made is most creditable to the organiza-
ton. Up to the present time between thirty
and forty large irrigation projects have
been examined, thirteen have been recon-
mended for approval and contracts for con-
struction have been either advertised or
let on seven projects, as follows:

The conference of engineers and hydro
graphers of the geological survey held in
Washington from January to IA brought
to close the third field season of the re-
clamation service. The past year has been
regarded CT unusual Importance to the
bureau. Actual construction has commenced
on two large projects, one of which has
progressed to a point where water will be
supplied to at least $4,000 acres next year.
The operations of the engineers have excit-
ed widespread interest in the west and IN
onl.- slightly less degree in tie st.
where the large manufacturing interests
have awakened to the Importance of the
work.
Immediately upon the passage of the re-
clamation act, June H. 1902, the Secretary
of the Interior authorized the director of
the geological survey to utilize the services
of the men who had been studying the sub
ject of irrigation, and to add to their num-
Der from time to time other experienced
men, selection being made through COM
petitive civil service examination. By this
means the reclamation service gradually
has been built up in the photographic
branch of the service, until now 1t includes
about $50 engineers of various grades and
classes, including men of wide experience
In constructing and consulting capacities.
The service is organized on such a basis
that the responsibilities are directly placed,
anG all matters of judgment receive the ad-
vice Of consulting engineers and experts.
Mr.. Newell in Charge.
Since the inception of the service the gem
eral conduct of the work has been under
the charge of Mr.. Frederick H. Newell, as
head of the photographic branch and chief
engineer of the reclamation service. He has
from time to time added to his advisory

Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1905-03-10

Washington, March l0.-There is
authority for the statement that the
question as TO whether the 18th nian
canal shall be made a sea level water
way or constructed on the lock system is
one that need not be determined at
the outset of the work. La fact, it is
said that work could proceed for five
years or more before this question would
have to be decided without in any way
retarding the progress of construction.
The explanation is made that the same
work would be required for the early
stage OF sea level canal that would be
necessary in the construction of 66-feot
cut. Thus ample time would be given
for an exhaustive consideration of the
subject and thorough study of all the
engineering problems involved before de-
termining the character of the waterway.
While it is not necessarily q legislative
question, yet decision to adopt the SEES
level plan would mean that much
larger sum would be required for the
construction of the canal than Congress
has authorized, and Congress would be
called upon for further authorization,
thus indirectly bringing the question of
a sea level canal before the legislative
branch of the government.
The Executive and the commission
have under consideration strong. rec
ommendation in favor of sea level
canal.
