A heavy rainstorm swept over San

ing much discomfort and misery to the
refugees camped out on low ground.
One and fifteen hundredths of an
inch of rain fell, which is the heaviest
rainfall for this late season of the year
since 1884
The storm added much hardship to
refugees and caused much annoyance
to those sheltered in houses but who
are still compelled to cook outside
In several parts of the city refugees
camped in low places were driven out
of their tents by the thrush, of water.
Two more victims of the earthquake
and fire have been reported to the po-

STEVENS weARlEs OF JOB.
Report That Chief Engineer OF Canal
Will RESIGN.

viii Resign.
At Panama 1t is admitted that there
is friction among the higher officials
interested with the canal management
and it is said the trip of Chief En-
gineer Stevens to Washington has
considerable significance. He has
been unable to agree with Chairman
Shonts on a number of vital matters
of policy, and so he forwarded his
resignation to Washington and stated
that he would await the arrival Of his
successor.
Instead came a message from Presi-
dent Roosevelt ordering him to with
draw his resignation and to come with
all possible dispatch to Washington.
He has been assured that he will have
the support of the administration.
1t is generally understood that Mr..
Shonts will retire from the chairman
ship of the committee and that his
successor will be Governor Magoon,
who, as chief official of the canal zone,
is making an enviable record for
efficiency.
