Stevens RESIGNED
PANAMA CANAL TO BE CON-
STRUCTED WITHOUT HIM.
His Decision Was Sudden President
Roosevelt Decides TO Re-organize
Canal Commission - Contract on
Percentage Basis Annulled Con-
struction to be Under Army Head.

BY au order addressed to Chairman
Shonts of the isthmian canal commits
sion Tuesday, President Roosevelt as
far as lay in his power under existing
law, transferred to the engineering
branch of the army the responsibility
for the further construction of the Pan
anna canal. He also formally recorded
the abandonment, for the present at
least, of the plan of having the canal
work done by contract on the percen-
tage system.
Another feature was the announce
ment of the resignation Of John f.
Stevens as engineer in chief of canal
construction.
Mr.. Shonts has formally resigned as
president of the Panama railway COM
psny.
The president intends that there
shall be an entire reorganization of the
commission, with three engineers OF
the army corps as its leading members,
who are to have charge of the engineer
ing features Of the canal work. The
chairman and engineer in chief of the
commission will be Major q. w. Goe-
thals His associates, Major d. b.
Gaillardand Major William l.. Siebert,
to rank i'll the order named. These
officers are all comparatively young,
ambitious and energetic.
Senator Joseph S g. Blackburn of
Kentucky, who will retire from the
United States senate on March 4, is to
be made memb Der Of the reorganiZed
commission
Th president is determined that the
work on the canal shall proceed con-
tinuously.
The president i, unaware of the spe
cifc reasons which have been influen-
tial in prompting Mr. Stevens resigna.
ton. 1t surprised him very much
1t has been known, however, that
Mr.. Stevens has been stung very much
by criticism aimed at him in connec-
ton with the canal work.
Ii il understood Mr.. Stevens is leav-
ing to accept position III connection
with great engineering enterprise i'll
this country at an annual salary more
than double that he now receives from
the government.
The probably is that the adminsistra
tioa may determine to give out the
work to be done on the isthmus under
contractunder the general direction of
the army engineers.
Major q. w. Cocktails, named by
the president as chief engineer of the
Panama canal, was graduated from
West Point in 1880 and after two
years at the engineers school Mt Will
