THE PROPOSED GATUN DAM.
Report of the Behring'S on the
Site

The report of borings on the site of the
proposed dam at Gatun for the Panama
canal. which was called for by the Senate
committee on interoceanc canals, has been
received and will be considered al a meet
ing Tuesday next. At the request of the
canal commission the report will not be
made public at present. Accompanying the
report are maps showing the composition OF
the various strata through which the bor-
ings passed. These mays show that the
foundation of indurated clay underneath
rock is thin in many places and lies on a
stratum of softer material, which Las been
given its scientific names by the engineers
who made the borings
Chairman ShontS of the canal commission
has written a letter to Senator Willard,
chairman of the Senate canal committee,
declaring that the borings are satisfactory
and that there can be no doubt of the sta
bility of the foundation for dam at
Gatun. Inasmuch as advocates of the sea-
level project questioned the suitability Of
indurated clay as a foundation for the
great dam. it is said these senators will not
be satisfied with report showing that
portions of the dam to be built on q
foundation of material softer than indu-
rated clay.

FIRE ESCAPES REQUIRED.
Notre Dame Converts New Building
to Be Equipped.

The building recently erected on the
southeast corner Of North Capitol and X
streets connected with the Notre Dame
convent will be required to have fire
escapes placed on it. The Commissioners
notified the owners of the building to that
effect this morning after consultation with
Building Inspector Ashford 1t was
thought at first that inasnuol as the
building was for strictly religious and
residential purposes it would be exempt
from the new fire escape law. but when
Inspector Ashford was directed to deter
mine this point, he found that the sweep
ing provisions of the fire escape law in
cluded it and the building would be in
violation of the law if it did not have the
escapes and other fire preventives and
precautions.
This building is fifty-eght feet high and
has four stories. 1t has a large number
of rooms opening on central halls which
are to be used sleeping apartments by
the Sisters operating the schools. Accord
ing to the fire escape law this building
comes within its provisions three times,
in that it is mere than three stories high,
more than thirty feet in height and in that
more than ten persons will use the build
ing for sleeping pun poses.
