AS TO TYPE OF CANAL
ENGINEER BURR HEARD BY SEN
ATE COMMITTEE.

Prof. William H. Burr of New York, q
member of the board of consulting engf-
neers appointed to investigate the type of
canal to be built on the Isthmus OF Para
ma. today resumed his testimony before
the Senate committee on interoceanic
nails 1t was intended that he should first
discuss the difficulties he apprehended from
the lock plan of canal, but members of the
committee pursued their examination con-
corning the sea level plan for nearly an
hour. He estimated the cost of excavat-
ing per cubic yard at from 40 cents for
steam shovel in lowland work and 30 cents
In Culebra cut to $3.50 for the most ex-
pensive work to be encountered, that of
removing rock under water.
The witness then took UP the minority
report and gave technical testimony con-
corning the borings made In the vicinity of
the proposed Gatun DAM He said 1t was
shown that the character of the soil or
rock was permeable and that the safety
of the proposed dam may be quite ques-
tionable. The flow of water he said. In
dicated that it was not artesian, but pro-
the Chagres river.
Prof Burr in his testimony yesterday
afternoon stated that he coneurred fully
In the conclusions reached by the majority
of the consulting engineers. and that since
the report was prepared his reflections con-
WINGED him more than ever that a sea-leyel
canal Is more feasible than a lock canal.
The witness was examined at length con-
corning the control of the Chagres river,
and declared that the problem presented
was entirely feasible. He declared that he
could see no reason why Sea-level canal
should not be constructed in ten years as
no doubtful engineering feats We're contem-
plated in the majority plan.

BANKS AND THEIR BONDS.
New York Institutions Have Only
Themselves to Blame.

According TO officials at the Treasury De-
partment the national banks of New York
have none to blame but themselves for
failure to receive their allotment of the
100000 deposited with national deposit
tories nearly two days behind the City Ma
tional Bank and the Hanover National
Bank
1t was stated at the treasury this morn
ing that as soon as Secretary Shaw decided
to make the deposit of si0.000.0O0 among
the national repositories throughout the
country all of the banks belonging to this
class were notified by telegraph at the same
moment. As stated by Private Secretary
Edwards. 1t Is no fault OF the Treasury De-
partmeHt that the City National Bank and
the Hanover National Bank prepared their
bonds more speedily than the other banks.
As soon as the announcement was made at
the Treasury Department this two banks
in question went to work without a mo-
ment's delay, prepared their bonds and ap-
piled at the subtreasury for their share of
the allotment The banks of New York re-
ceived about 100000.

DISCUSSING LEGAL POINTS.
Conference of Senator Dolliver and the
Attorney General.

senator Dolliver and Attorney General
MOODY today conferred regarding legal
points raised yesterday In the Senate dis
cussion of the railroad rate bill. The sena-
TOT would not specify the questions con-
sidered. but at the close of the conference
expressed the opinion that the friends of
the House rate bill need have no fear thai
the Senate will be able to adopt an amend
ment which would add to the rights the
railroads now have in the courts He does
not believe that the proposition suggested
by Senator Bailey. limiting the powers of
courts of lesser importance tina nthe SUI
preme Court, VIII be acceptable to the
Senate. He says the friends of the bill con-
sidered that question and abandoned IL for
the reason that 1t did not appear to be con-
stitutional.
Senator Doiliver did not think that the
plan proposed by Senator Spooner pro-
vidfng for the impeachment of the differ
ence between the commissions rate and
the railroads rate would be feasible.
The attitude OF Senator Bailey was dis
cussed briefly by Senator Dolliver He said
that many persons seemed to think that
it proved that friends of the bill were di-
vided. He took the position that Senator
Bailey's views were more stringent than
those of other friends OF the bill, and
did not indicate that Senator Bailey or
other democrats for whom he speaks were
In any way unfriendiy to the pending
measure

MUTINY ON sHIPBoARD.
Fireman Killed at Brooklyn Dock in
Pistol Battle

NEW YORK. March s---A mutiny in
which one life was lost occurred today on
board the steamer Massachusetts which
was lying at her dock in Brooklyn. James
Slocum a fireman, was killed during re-
volver battle on the steamers deck. in
which the steamers firemen were ranged
on one side and opposing them were the
ships officers and members of the crew.
Sounds of fighting caused a reserve Of po-
lice to be hurried TO the. steamer, but the
firemen, who had started the trouble, had
been driven into submission before the po-
lice arrived
Six members of the crew were arrested,
as were also First Officer Albert j. Evans
and Fourth Officer Elmer II. Kerwin. All
were held as witnesses. Kerwin's home Is
in Baltimore Md. The mutiny has been
brewing, according to the officers of the
Massachusetts, ever since the steamer left
Cardiff, Wales. February 5. The fremen
were the chief disturbers. it was alleged.
making continual complaints about their
food.
The crew, however. sided with the officers
During the voyage from Cardiff there were
almost daily fist fights on the steamer, ali
growing out of the surly tempers of the
two opposing factions. The wrangIing con-
tinued after the Massachusetts arrived in
Brooklyn several days ago. Some of the
firemen spent last night in the city and the
quarrel began Immediately upon their re-
turn to the vessel today. The Massachu-
sets was expected to sail today for San

SNOW AND ICE Law.
Favorable Report on the Commission
er's Bill.

Inc favorable report on the Commission
ers' snow and ice removal bill, made from
the District of Columbia committee by
representative Kline, calls attention to the
fact that the court which held that
the Commissioners regulations on the SUBJ
ject We're Illegal, did not go so far as to
say that the regulation in itself was void,
but emphasized the authority through
which the regulation should be enforced
In other words, the court did not say that
II the regulation had been enacted by
Congress it would still have been without
effect. The Commissioners, through their
corporation counsel. thereupon, embodied
into a proposed law the regulation which
they had previously attempted to enforce.
1t is not certain that the court will up-
hold the law even If the bill should be
passed. but the Commissioners are anx-
ious to exhaust every possible means Of Sc
curing an effective snow and ice law before
they are compelled to do the work through
an appropriation made by Congress
1t can be readily understood" the report
continues, that the work of removing the
snow and ice in city of the size of WASH
ington presents almost insuperable diff
culties. There are, for instance $50 miles
of paved sidewalks within the fire limits.
and to clean this vast extent of pavement
within even eight hours after the fall of
snow would require the services of several
thousand men il the work Is to be done
thoroughly. or very large number of
horses and men if a pathway is made
through the center of the pavement by a
horse and pillow. Experience in the past
has shown that il is almost impossible to
secure at brief notice the comparatively
small number of men whose labor is nee
essary for the cleaning of cross walks and
cutters after snowfall, and there is seri-
Gus question whether If the municipality
undertook the work of cleaning the pave
ments a force large enough to clean the
pavements could be secured.
IF as might be the case. the cost of
cleaning the sidewalks is assessed against
the properties abutting thereon, an increase
in the clerical force of the assessors office
would be necessary. inasmuch as there are
over 10000 pieces Of property against
which the assessment would have been
levied A separate set of books would be
necessary and the preparation of bins and
other clerical work would be quite extern
siye: -. .,.x -
order that for the third and last time an
effort may be made to secure law which
will meet the approval of the Court OF Ap-
peals If the effort is not successful the
Commissioners will then appeal to Con-
eress for an appropriation to clean the
snow and ice, but they do not feel 1ustifed
in inviting this charge upon the commun-
itv until every other effort has been tried
and found wanting. The cost VIII neees-
ssriIv be a large one, for 1t Is not likely
that the great majority of the people In
the community will undertake to do fer
themselves that which the municipality is
compelled to do for Them.

THE PACKERS HEARING
CONGRATULATIONS OF SPECIAL
AGENT ROBERTSON RESUMED.

CHICAGO. March Especial Agent Rob

case today. and the cross examination was
taken up by Attorney Miller, representing
Armour & Co.
The attorney asked II J. Ogden Armour
had complained to the witness in 1904 that
the packers were being watched and their
movements logged by the secret service
men in the employ of the government.
The witness said that Mr.. Armour had
made such a statement to him.
The witness was questioned at length
about his calls at the office of the district
attorney, 1t being the purpose of the ques-
tions TO show that he had conferred with
the Department of Justice from time to
time while conducting the investigation. He
declared that he called at the office of the
district attorney upon several occasions, but
said that he had not conversed about mat
tiers connected with the case now on trial.
