CANAL BID is HELD UP.

Unless Oliver Gets Partner United
States May Do the Work.
TIL bid of Oliver & Bangs to complete
the construction of the Panama canal for
6.75 per cent of the cost has been rejected
so far as Arson NJ. Bangs of New York
is concerned. But if Mr.. Oliver can
enter into a satisfactory arrangement
witt some other contractor, who is nan
cially responsible, he will be given the
contract, it is said.
Some of the Washington correspondents
seem to think that the government will
build the canal itself without subletting
any portion of the work to contractors.
While doubt was expressed as to the ad-
visibility of pursuing the contract plan
any further, it was virtually decided to
advertise again for bids, although not in
the belief that any of them would prove
acceptable. The chief purpose in read
vertising is to afford Mr.. Oliver an OPP
portunity to enlist new financial backing
and submit another bid.
w. J. Oliver of Tennessee and the
wilderness, is the largest employer of
negro labor in the world. He has forty
contracts now on hand, which include tun-
neling Lookout mountain, damming the
Tennessee river and thrusting railroads
through Louisiana cypress swamps. If
his bid is successful he will go down to
Panama with an army of 5000 southern
negroes who nave long been in his employ,
organized like an army, with a trained
superintendent at the head of each di-
vision.
1t was intimated that Mr.. Oliver might
arrange to cooperate with Macarthur &
Gillespie. 1t is known that the financial
credentials submitted by Mr.. Oliver and
the Macarthur syndicate nave been found
satisfactory, and the statement is made
that a compromise proposal will be con
sidered. provided Oliver succeeds in max
ing a satisfactory arrangement will Nc
Arthur & Gillespie. The Oliver & Bangs
lid was 6.1o per cent, while the Near
thur Gillespie bid was 1850 per cent.

THAW TRIAL BEGINS.
MILLIONAIRE CHARGED WITH
NUMBERING WHITE.
One of the Most Remarkable Trials
in the Criminal History of New
York-ResuIt Watched by Notn-
biss in Two Continents.

The great Thaw trial Is on in New
York. The fight to save naary Ken
dali Thaw from death in eA& Electric
chair for the Staying of Architect Stan
ford White began Wednesday morning
before Justice Fitzgerald. The drawing
Of the jury to try the young Pittsburs
millionaire, began with the opening OF
court
LAur Before the hour set for the
trial, &rswds 1ocked to the Criminal
Courr's building and filed the rotunda.
An hour before the trial began the
crowd was driven into the street and
every entrance guarded by police. Only
talesmen and reporters were allowed to
enter the courtroom. The trial over
shadowed the MolineauX and Patrick
trials. Over 200 newspaper men made
application for admission to report the
trial. No spectators were allowed in
the trial room. There were correspond
ents frem Paris, London and Berlin
and On the lower floor of the building
cable n telegraph offices were in
stalled.
Outside, crowds waited to get a
glimpse of the prisoner as he passed
over the bridge Of signs. 1t was only
a feeting glimpse Of a shadow outlined
On an opaque sheet Of glass, but the
curious had waited hours to see that
shadow and they were satisfied.
Thaw came to his trial for the muir
der of Stanford White on the roof of
Madison Square Garden on the night
of June 20, last year. The millionaire
prisoner believed that White was seek
ing to separate him from his wife, the
beautiful Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, the art
list model. Emotional insanity is the
defense offered to save the young Pitts
burg youth from the electric chair.
When Justice Fitzgerald took his
seat in court and Harry Thaw had been
brought from the prisoners pen to his
seat beside the counsel table, a trial
was begun that will remain perhaps
forever on the pages of criminal his
tory ia New York without a parallel.
All the elements Of a tragedy are
woven in the warp and wool of his
case. All the characters of he stage
world and of the gay Bohemia of a
great city a titled sister, a countess

millionaire play leading parts in this
tragedy that had for its ending the
shooting of Stanford White by Harry
Thaw on the crowded and gaily-lighted
roof of Madison Square Garden. No
mystery wells this remarkable case.
Thaw killed his man where all might
see, and held the smoking revolver in
his hand until an officer took him by
the arm.
In the Thaw party were Mrs. VIII
liam Thaw, mother of Harry Thaw /;
Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, the artist
model wife the Countess of Yarmouth,
the titled sister of the defendant; Mrs.
George Carnegie, a sister of Thaw, and
Miss May Mckenzie a chorus girl
friend of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw. The
party was accompanied by Edward
Thaw, a brother of Thaw, and George
Carnegie.

Kan.n. Inaor.e. Parole system.

The annual report of the Kansas State
~penitentiary takes a strong stand in favor
of the parole system, which has been
under experiment for two or three years.
The officers say hat persons discharged
in this way are kept in restraint and
strengthened in a manner that aids them
to become good citizens. Few persons VIC
late their parole and few are afterward
returned for new crimes. On the other
hand. two or three term persons are gem
orally found to be those who have been
discharged without restraint. Warden
Haskell says that the parole law has
passed the experimental stage and that of
49, persons thus released only thirty
five violated their promise. The peniten-
tiary was run at a net profit of Ssh
916 in two years. 1t cost 81 cents a
day to feed each prisoner, owing to the
quantity of food raised on the farm.

There have been stories Of disagree

and it has been said that the President
has not been satisfied with him. Still,
these stories have always been denied at
the White House and in the War Depart
nlent, where it has been consistently held
that Shonts was in perfect accord with
the President and Taft.
When Mr.. Shonts went to Washington
it is declared he did not at all realize
that the actual control over the digging
of the Panama canal had been officially
placed in the hands Of the Secretary of
War. Out of this misunderstanding of
official status there grew a social tempest

The people of the United States have

again. Railroad employees ave admitted
on the stand that they disregarded signals
that they had to, to make schedules.
Twenty years ago persons travelled on
railroad trains with comparative safety.
There were some accidents, but few men
dreaded a trip by rail. Even ten years
ago the peril was not great. In 1897 only
