WORK HIGHLY PRAISED
CHAS. BERTONCINI EULoGIzES
OPERATIONS ON THE ISTHMUS.

Mr.. Charles Bertoncini of Panama is in
Washington, having come here from the
isthmus at the request of the board of con-
sulting engineers of the canal commission.
MIR. Bertoncini has been in Panama since
1881, being called there from Central Amer
lea by those in charge of the French COM
pany that undertook the work and quit.
He spent two years walking over Central
America, or a part of it, and then went to
the isthmus. He did the isthmus foot,
too, and from that intimate acquaintance
with that country came his invitation from
the board of consulting engineers.
THE United States" he said last night
When seen by a Star reporter 'is going
about the building of this big ditch in
practical way. People up here may think
the progress slow, but they have no con-
ception of the many obstacles to be over
come. Men who have been away from the
isthmus for any length of time would
scarcely know it now. Under the energetic
and intelligent direction of Col Gorgas, in
charge of the sanitary department, the con-
dltion of the isthmus, so far as health is
concerned, has improved almost immeasur-
ably. There Is no justification for the evil
dent distrust Of the people of the states as
to the danger of going TO the isthmus to
live
"A man has to be temperate down there,
not only in drinking. but in eating. If he
does that-if he shows ordinary common
sense in the treatment of his physical self
he viii live long there as he will any
where else The houses prepared for the
workmen are good they are dry and clean,
at least those built by the United States.
Some of those left there by the French COM
pany are not what they should be, but even
these have been put in fairly good con-
oition.
'srhe question of a lock sea level canal
Is only one of time and money. Both are
feasible. The sea level canal will take
about ten years longer to construct and will
cost at least hundred millions more. Most
of the workmen down there are West India
negroes, and they are living in their own
climate and should naturally have no diff
Guilty in living there. 1t is the compare
lively few from northern climates that find
trouble and sickness They think they can
do the things they have been in the habit
OF doing at home and before they find out
they cannot they are bedridden. There is
no need for any TO be afraid of the
climate if he is careful, and there is plenty
of work to be done down there and there is
good pay ready for the man who is not
afraid to work
Mr.. Bertoncini hopes to be relieved from
duty here and to return to the isthmus
within the next few days. He wants to get
back to the isthmus, for he fairly revels in
the life there These cold days up north,
as he calls Washington, go clear through
him. He is now the chief of the map-uiali-
ing department of the United States IN
Panama

damage suit of Ralph p. Gage, a former
Norfolk attorney, now living in Denver,
Col, against Thomas H. Robbins, a builder,
of Washington, ID. c., was settled here to-
day by a compromise, the Washington de-
PENDANT, who was in court, not Directing 20
judgment for $3.50, and agreeing to pay
one-half the costs of the case. The suit
was brought here some months ago Mr..
Robbins was a former client of Attorney

bins charged him with using sharp practice
on him. Tho action was one for alleged
SANDER The case was not set today for
trial on its merits, the question being to
settle how much of Robbins money Gage
had tied up in Norfolk on attachment pro-
ceedings, Gage claiming $500 and Robbins
only $500. Mrs Brandeth of Washington,
who claimed portion of the attached
money, was, here to testify, but prior TO the
calling of the case the attorneys got to-
gether. 1t being evident from the present
health of Attorney Gage that he would not
again be able to return to Norfolk, his
counsel agreed to a compromise and the
matter was settled Judge S. Herbert
Giesy of Washington and w. w. Starke OF
Norfolk appeared for Robbins. Judge
Giesy, Mr.. Robbins and Mrs. Brandeth re-
turned to Washington tonight.
