SENATOR EMMONS
WILL RECOVER
DOCTORS MAKE FAVORABLE
REPORT
Patient Deirious but Symptoms Not
larming-Remarkab Vital.
ity Shown and Condition
Hourly Improves

BY Associated Press.
SACRAMENTO, Feb. 26-Dr. Hanna
and two other physicians had con-
sultation on the case of Senator EN-
mons today and after careful examina-
ton declared him to be greatly i'm
proved in the last two days.
DR.. Hanna said:
IF nothing goes wrong I certainly
believe Mr. Emmons will recover. His
wound is healing. He is still subject
to hallucinations but he has occasional
lucid spells. Dr. Edward w. Twitchell
and DR.. J. w. James and myself held
a consultation last evening, and we
agreed that he was improving, and
that his condition is better than ordi-
narily could be expected.
You see, the operation was more
than usually serious, because the ap-
pendix had exploded. Wounds of this
sort have to heal from the inside out
wardly toward the skin. Within a
week l think Mr.. Emmons will be in
his right mind again and able, perhaps,
to sit up.
"Of course you understood that the
worry and his habits just prior to the
time of the operation were not calcu-
lated to improve his chances of recov-
cry after the operation. AS it is, he
is showing a remarkable vitality"
At midnight Senator Emmons was
said to be even better than this morn
30
was of the most hopeful character 1t
is evident that all attendants think that
the patient will recover and DR.. Hanna
at midnight said that such is his
belief,

REVOLUTION IS
STILL SPREADING
RUSSIAN RAILWAYS UNDER
MARTIAL LAW
Authorities Fear Possible Outbreak
Of Peasants Who May Join
Workmen In an lrresist-
lhle Revolt

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. q, 1885 a.
m.-Evidence is increasing that the
strikers throughout the empire and
especially those in st. Petersburg are
not economic in their origin, but in
spired by definite political plan.
The government and employers are
embarrassed by the tactics of the
workmen, whose discomfort is being
fed and who are increasing demands
with each new concession.
This condition Is believed to have
been fomented by crafty political agi-
tators who are stirring up the men
and at the same time holding them in
,eash, apparently waiting some signal
for concerted action.
Fear is entertained that this wide
spread agitation may be connected
with a plan to await a possible peasant
outbreak in the spring with which a
general strike will be synchronized,
the workmen joining hands with the
peasants.
The election of labor representatives
to the imperial commission which is to
Investigate the causes of discomfort
in st. Petersburg passed off quietly
yesterday.
War DepIetes District
The situation in Riga is again re-
ported to be very serious. The au-
thorities there apparently are unable
to cope with the lawless element.
In the Caucasus the situation is ex
tremely bad, virtually amounting to
civil war.
Owing to the gravity of the situ-
alton and apprehension based on de-
pletion of the district troops for the
war, the government has appealed to
the Armenian catholicos to exert his
personal influence to persuade Ar
menians to cease their excesses. The
eatholicos went to Avarian, where he
exhorted people to remain tranquil.
In Baku the inhabitants barricaded
in their houses are petitioning the CEN
trail authorities at St. Petersburg for
relief from the existing condition of
affairs. The government is sending
reinforcements of troops: but, while
these may be able to stop the reign
of terror they will be impotent to
start the wheels of industry.
Proprietors fear that the oil wells
will be ruined if pumping is suspended
much longer. Conditions in other towns
in the Caucasus are equally desperate.
Search Workmen's Houses
In Siberia as we'll as in other parts
of the empire, the government has
granted considerable concessions to
railway employees, in some cases ac-
cording them a reduction of the hours
of labor to nine day. This renders
the situation of private employers in
creasingly difficult, as they claim that
it is impossible for them to concede so
much.
Lugansk coal mine and on the Siberian
railway at Chita. The strikers at the
latter point demand that the war be
stopped. Dispatches from Batoum re-
port that domiciliary searches for arms
have been instituted in the quarters
of the workmen.
Postal telegraph officials at Moscow
are threatening to strike unless their
demands = improvement of their con-
dition-are granted.
All the Russian railways, except the
Central Asian, have been placed
under martial law

SEA LEVEL CANAL
RECOMMENDED
ENGINEERS SUBMIT FIRST DEF
INITE PLANS
Width to Be 50 Feet at Bottom
and Minimum Depth 35
Feet--cost Estimated at
3o,5oo,ooo
81 Associated Presa.

BY Associated Presa
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2s.-The first
definite engineering plans for the con.
struction of the Panama canal have
just been laid before the isthmiar
canal commission by the engineering
committee of that body, consisting OF
Commissioners Burr, Parsons anc
Davis.
The principal recommendations are
summed UP in this resolutions:
Resolved, That this committee ap.
prove and recommend for adoption by
the commission plan for a sea level
canal, with bottom width of $50 feet
and a minimum depth of water of
thirty-five feet and with twin tidal
locks at Mirahores, whose usable di-
mensions shall be 1000 feet long and
100 feet wide, at a total estimated cost
of $3.50, 500, 900. Such estimates include
an allowance for administration, en-
gineering, sanitation and contingencies
amounting to $3S, S,450,000, but without
allowance for interest during con-
struction. expense of zone government
and collateral costs and water supply,
sewers or paving of Panama or Colon,
which last items are to be repaid by
the inhabitants of those cities"
The committee estimates that a sea
level canal can be completed within
ten or twelve years from the present
time.
These recommendations are the con-
clusion of a report to the committee
prepared in the canal zone under date
of February IA last, and based on COM
plete engineering reports on all of
the problems involved.
Height of Canals Surface
The committee decided that under
no circumstances should the surface
of the canal be more than sixty feet
above the sea and estimates that at
this level the cost would be $17S,O1
406. A thirty foot level is estimated
to cost $194,213,4O6.
1t is recommended that the Chagres
river be controlled by a dam at
Gamboa, built to crest height of 200
feet, and the waters of the lake thus
created, disposed of through tunnels.
The work on the dam will require from
one to two and a half years and the
committee reports it should begin at
once. The dam at this place, it is
said. involves no formidable obstacle,
which is not the case at the Bohio
location.
Actual work with the new American
steam shovels in the Culebra cut has
demonstrated that the entire excava-
ton can be done at a cost of fifty cents
a cubic yard. The former isthmian
committee estimated this cost at so
cents. This reduction amounts to a
total of $1500OO00 and is given as a
justification of the recommendation of
the sea level canal.
Immediately work is recommended at
Colon in constructing a safe harbor
To this end an outer breakwater is sug-
gested as well as the construction of
an inner harbor at the entrance to the
canal. 1t is recommended, that bids
be invited for this work.

Favor Sea Level Canal

faVor sea Lever Canal
The committee makes this observa-
ton in summing up:
1.-The practicability of certainly and
satisfactorily controlling the floods of
the Chagres by so simple and economi-
cal a method as the Gamboa lake and
it's outflow channels and the reduced
cost of excavation as actually dem
onstrated by the. work of the Culebra
cut makes the work of the sea level
canal at reasonable cost far more
available than has heretofore appeared
possible. These recent developments
in the conditions attending the con-
struction of the canal are so important
as to be almost controlling in charac-
ter. The remaining element is that of
time required to make the great sum-
NIT excavation.
"It is to be carefully observed that
the results thus far obtained in the
Culebra cut have been reached under
disadvantageous conditions of organ
ization of both plant and force. The
railroad tracks serving the eXcavators
are yet fragmentary and tentatively
placed to serve the purposes of exca-
walton. In both respects the disposi-
tion of the plant is far more unfavor-
able, both to economy and celerity of
operations, than will be the case when
a complete track system has been ar
ranged and laid down to serve large
number of steam shoVels operated by
the fQpp Of
these disadvantageous conditions the
cost of excavation has been reduced far
lower than was anticipated and 1t has
been demonstrated that each steam
shovel may be counted on to yield an
average record of at least 1000 cubic
yards per working day.
10000, 900 Cubic Yards Year
1.-THE chief engineer estimates that
with 100 steam shoVels installed. with
complete system of tracks serving
them, a yearly record of 30,OOO,0OO cubic
yards of excavation may be reached
without requiring a greater output per
shovel or greater speed i'm working
than has already been attained This
rate of working probably could be
reached within two years from the
present time.
with the rate of progress which
now appears reasonable to anticipate
this committee believes that a sea level
canal, with a tidal lock 1000 feet long
and 100 feet usable width at Miraflores,
can be completed within ten to twelve
years from this time, the bottom width
of the canal being 100 feet and the

EUROPE IS ANXIOUS.
What Will Come Next in the Russo
Jan War;

WHAT VIII Nomo NeNI IN tne Hu6So-
Jan War;
Europe still awaits some decisive in
dications as to what will be the imme-
date effect of the fall of Port Arthur.
This indication can come only from
st. Petersburg. It is now generally
recognized that Japan's great victory
can make for peace only in case Rus
sia's internal crisis makes peace i'm
perative. Nearly every statesman in
europe is convinced that disruption of
the empire can only be averted by
placing unlimited power in the hands
of really strong man.
1t is expected in st. Petersburg that
the car will order Kuropatkin to take
the offensive Immediately, before Cen
eral Nogi's veterans can join the JAP
anese forces in Manchuria, and at any
expense gain some success to Offset
the loss of Port Arthur upon the Rus
sian people. Such instructions will
place Kuropatkin in most difficult po-
sition. The severity Of the winter in
northern Manchuria makes extensive
military operations next to impossible,
even with troops with the best equip
ment. 1t is known that the Russian
army is suffering from deprivation of
such necessities as boots and over
coats, owing to wholesale robberies of
supplies and battle fought solely for
politician reasons would be with the ad-
vantage strongly on the side of the
Japanese.
