explained several matters over which the
Omaha fans have been worrying. In the

said they expected a large crowd, as Den

all over the country. He said he never
saw a town as lively as Denver, for the
Elks had taken the whole city, even block
ing the street cars by the large crowds on
the streets.
In regard TO his new pitcher. Rourke
said II was Bill Morrison from the Pueblo
team whom he had signed and not Morse,
the university boy. as the dispatches said.
He says Morrison is in fne condition and
should help the team out materially In its
present shortage OF pitchers. Morrison vas
one OF the stars OF the Des Moines team
last year and helped them TO win the pen

good pitcher. He has been helping Selee

Although we have won seven out of

better for we had some hard luck" said
Manager Bill. 'Perring muffed a high foul

Claiming that the failure OF Jesse Lowe
TO qualify for the position of city engineer
permits him 10 hold over under the general
laws OF the state, City Engineer Rosewater
Friday morning filed an Official bond in
the sum of $4,000 and the following letter
with the city clerk:
Herewith please find my bond in the sum
of $4,000 as city engineer OF the city of
Omaha for the term from date thereof
until the end OF the mayors term OF office
and until my successor shall have been

This bond is filed with you in accordance
with the provisions of the statutes of this
state which provide that the incumbent of
an Office holding over by reason of the
neglect or refusal of the successor to quail
ify, shall qualify anew within ten days
from the time at which his successor, II
appointed, should have qualified.

Supported by Mayor.

The second paragraph states briefly the
attitude of Mr.. Rosewater in the matter.
He is supported by Mayor Dahlman and
asserts that able lawyers have studied the
question and told him he is cbrrect. Mr..
Rosewater bases his view upon the theory
that, although the charter gives the mayor
and council the power to fill vacancies, no
specification ordinance or regulation has
been enacted TO cover the office of city en-
glneer, also upon section IS of the charter,
which reads:
THE general laws Of the state governing
public oficer. so far as applicable, shall
govern and fix the qualifications and LA
bility Of sureties, the penalties for failure
to give bonds the bonds OF persons ap-
pointed to MI vacancies or the bonds to be
given by officers reappointed, reelected or
holding over"
Section II Of chapter x Of the compiled
statutes says that when it is ascertained
that the incumbent Of an once holds over
by reason Of the nonelection or nonappoint-
ment of a successor, or Of the neglect or
refusal OF the successor TO qualify, he shall
qualify anew within ten days from the
time at which his successor. II elected,

THE PANAMA CANAL.
The Lock Plan and SFoot Level Which Have Been Approved
By the President.

The plan for the Panama Canal,
which has been approved by President
Roosevelt contcnplates Its completion
In 1915. Beginning at Colon there will
be two jetties thrown out over Limon
Bay four and a half miles, which will
be on converging lines till they reach
%0-foot water, where they will termi-
nate in two lighthouses 1000 feet
apart. Upon entering this ship will
be In calm water and take a pilot.
From that point there will be a broad
channel 500 feet wide dredged through
the mud OF Limon Bay. The channel
leads by sharp turns to Gatun Dam.
The sharp turns have been decided
upon instead of the ld-fashioned
curves. because experience has demon
strated that it is easier to turn a ship
sharply than it is to keep her in the
center of the channel on q long curve.
The Gatun Dam is back at the foot
hills, and the channel is dredged
through the low-lying ground up TO
the base Of the dam. This dam slopes
easily TO a crest 1876 feet above the
valley and so feet above the surface
OF the lake, which in turn is So feet
above sea level. The dam is an im>
mense bank of earth $500 feet through,
and comprises 21,200,00O cubic yards.
