SOARO WILL ASCERTAIN EXACT
STATUS OF CASE AND INTEND
TO SEE THAT CiTYS INTER

Though the Board of Public Works
Is not ready to announce Just what

the members at meeting held yes
terday with City Attorney Study To
consider the Pennsylvania railroad
company's proposition relative TO the
extension of West Second street and
the building of viaducts under the

tracks, We're of the opinion that the
company cannot utterly ignore the
State street situation and that it
must be made to understand that its
encroachment on city property must
be settled for.
State street begins at the west side
of the river and runs west to the
southern terminus of Ridge street,
where it( State street, angles TO the
northwest paralleling the tracks of
the Richmond division of the Pennsyl-
yania.
From Ridge to Hunt street the Penn
sylvania company has encroached
upon the city property, a fact that has
been known for years but which for
some reason has never been thorough
ly investigated. The Pennsylvania
company lays claim TO legal posses
sion of right of way for a distance
of 33 feet on either side of point
midway of its tracks. BY this calcula-
tion the Pennsylvania would not en-
croach on State street but would real
ly have right to extend its property

does at this time.

reality encroaching on the city's

The alteration between the men

to the encounter unarmed. Freeman
drew his knife and slashed Williams
four times on the head and face, two
of the gashes, one on the top OF the

of the face being very deep. The woun

hurried into the Office of Dr. A. II.

were not serious.

THE RESIGNATION OF
ENGINEER WALLACE.
ss2asSss. 'sssasssas8@@@ %%&&%%%&&ara
Savannah News.

The Senate Committee on Inter
oceanic Canals is bringing out some
new facts in connection with the
resignation of Mr. Wallace as chief
engineer of the Panama canal. and
they promise TO lead TO interesting de.
velOpments. 1t will be recalled that
Engineer Wallace was very generally
criticised and concerned for giving
up his position on such short notice.
thus leaving the government without
preparation for filling so responsible
place. 1t was given out at the time
that Mr. Wallace had received an Of
fer of much larger salary and that
he had yielded TO the entreaties of
his family to accept il. He never did
a great deal of talking about the mat
ter and it was supposed that the true
reason for his resignation had been
given to the public.
The statement he made TO the investi-
eating committee Monday conveyed
the impression that he resigned for a
reason altogether different. It seems
there was much RED tape that hinder
cd the work and he was uncertain of
his position. Things were being done
that didn't seem to him to be right.
and he wanted to have a talk with
Secretary Taft about them 1t was
for that reason that he asked for a

1t seems he had been informed Inee
Mr.. Cromwell was acting IN an a
Visory capacity to the president anu
he concluded that sooner OF ia.ei
there would be friction between MIN
and Mr.. Cromwell One thihs ns
didn't like was that although ne wa

thing that struck his as queer Was
that just before the Panama Railroad
was sold to the government diYldehdS

eds and that Immediately AFTER the

seemed TO him that proceeding OF
that kind was taking money Out OF
the pocket of Uncle Sam IN way
that was not altogether right.
And it is probable that the Amer
lean people will hardly think it was
right Mr. Wallace admitted in an
swer to direct question by Senator
Morgan that the chief reason why he
came north to see Secretary TAFT was
to shake Cromwell off his shoulders.
If this turns out to be so then the
real reason for Mr. Wallace's. resig-
nation was not given to the public at
the time he severed his connection
with the canal. And it becomes nee
essary for Secretary Taft to make an
explanation to the investigating COM
m5 ee. OF course the public will
hardly draw any conclusion until al
ter this matter respecting Mr. CrOm-
wells connection with the canal is
explained. If it proves to be true
thai Mr.. Cromwell is acting in an
advisory capacity TO the president
and that he had dividends declared
by the Panama Railway Company
that hadn't been earned, and that the
money that was paid out in dividends
was. really needed in making improve
ments on the property, the public viii
want TO know why Mr.. Cromwell was
acting in an advisory capacity to the

with so much power without holding
any Office congress had created. Mr..
/ Cromwell. if we are not mistaken. is
the lawyer who induced the late Sen

route and throw his influence in favor
Of the Panama route. Ii was stated
that he made 100000 by selling the
Panama canal property to this gov

French Company. 1t looks as if Mr..
Wallace had opened a wide field for
investigation. There are senators on
the senate committee who are eager
to investigate.
