New-York tribune., 1907-03-01
REASONS FoB A RESIGNATION.

Various explanations OF Mr.. SteVenss reslg-
nation Of his place as chief engineer OF the
Panama Canal are put forward, not one Of
which can be regarded as credltable to him. We
are told that Mr. Stevens provoked practical dis
missRl by writing a dictatorial letter TO the
President declaring that he would brook no
rival near the throne" in the shape Of a con-
tractor who might share some of the glory of
constructing the canal, and that he would not
submit to any examination by Congress, and that
~ any such ind,gnities were offered to him he
would quit the job If that report be correct
s1d there is good ground for believing it to be-
the country viii regard with hearty approval
the Presidents action In making its receipt mark
the end OF Mr.. Stevens's service. There was
once q man who boasted himself to be "a blger
man than old Grant" We do not recall that he
greatly prospered after the disclosure Of his
megalOmania
There are additional explanations OF more
or less credibiIity or plausibllity. One is that
AIr. Stevens thought himself too big a man to
be 'led down 10 so petty work as the Panama
Canal It would have been more reasonable for
biz 70 be unwilling TO identify himself with
SONS Of the plans for that canal Of which he
himself was the author. We cannot imagine
an engineer Of rank so high or fame so great that
e would not be an additional honor to him to
be known as the builder OF the Panama Canal.
AmOL1er 1S Ln&L nlS 0eVOuOQ 70 Ene tallrOaQS, on
which he was formerly employed, was TOO great
% permit him to be identified with a work which
might become a competitor OF the transcOnti-
mental railroads or 70 serve under a President
who was intent upon making those railroads
obey the law Of the land. IL so, there was suf-
.fclent reason for bis getting away from the
isthmus ln short order. It Is recalled that one
canal commissioner, whose term OF service Is
now ended, strangely slgnallzed his advent 20
that Office with the declaration that nothing
would be done az Panama which would in any
way affect the interests Of the railroads There
Is no room at the isthmus for such sentiments.
Nobody wants 20 see the canal made inimical TO
the railroads, but neither Is It TO be made sub
Fegyient 70 them. The man who makes the canal
must do 50 with the sole thought OF making the
canal end without regard TO any other interest
IL is also intimated that Mr. Stevens did not
like % spend so much time at Panama and that
he wos unwilling 20 sacrifice the larger earnings
which be could get in other employment IN the
Dnited States. II so, we must recall what was
SAID OF his predecessor fOs being moved, as was
supposed, by such considerations, and we can
