Later ii was announced that the Uru-

from the Drago doctrine agreement which
resulted in a slight movement to throw
the whole resolution out of the program
by a two-thirds vote.
However, it was still considered prob
able that the resolution should be adopt

Chinese CONTRACT LABOR
Hundreds of People Want to Get in
on the Good Thing on the
Isthmus.

washington, Aug. 14.-Scores OF ap-
plications for information concerning
the proposed department contract for
9. 200 Chinese laborers have already
reached the isthmian canal commission
and indications are that hundreds of
persons are planning to make bids for
this contract In the hope of realizing
small fortune from it as several traders
did on the recent issue of Panama canal
bonds, but prospective bidders without
extensive financial backing will be
much disappointed. 1t will be required
that a large certified check, probably
not less than $4,000, shall accompany
each bid. Bids not accompanied by
such a warrant of good faith Will not
be considered.
Advertisements for the proposals to
apply to the Chinese labOrers must be
published for thirty days and conse-
uuently no proposals will be opened be-
fore Sept. Is, and at the earliest some
months will be required to get the Chi
nese to this country after the contract
has been awarded. Consequently the
commissioners do not expect to have
the Chinese laborers on the isthmus
before Jan. /, 1907.
