over the books and accounts of the
contractors.
The contractors, on the other hand,
must furnish and pay all the laborers,
furnish all tools and machinery of a
minor character, make all repairs upon
equipment and machinery and build
fngs. They must take over all en-
ployes on the isthmus of the govern
ment and assume and carry out all
contracts that may have been entered
into by the canal commission for sup
ply of labor. In addition to its present
force, which now aggregates about
$4,000 men, they are at liberty to en-
ploy any kind of labor they find suit
able, but on written notice from the
chairman or chief engineer they must
discharge for cause any employee, and
must comply with all the laws of con-
gress and the regulations of the gov
eminent of the canal zone. The con-
tract fixes the working hours for Am
erican labor on the construction work
at eight hours and foreign labor ten
hours day, and requires at least two
shifts during the twenty-fOur hours.
The group of contractors who re-
ceive the award will be governed by a
system of premiums and penalties ac-
cording as their task is completed
within or beyond an estimated cost and
time. In case the government should
decide to terminate the contract when
the contractor is not in default, it is
provided that the contractor snail be
paid the cost of the work performed by
him to date and $25OO0O in addition
to such percentage as may have been
earned by him upon such cost up to
that time.
The responsibility of the contractor
for injuries or damages inflicted upon
the plant, canal or its auxiliary works,
is limited to negligence of himself or
his employees.

$2yOOO,OOO; Foreign Contractors Barred
The Great Isthmian
Associated Press to The Evening Tines.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington, D. c., Jan. 1.-THE Of
fee Of the Isthmian canal commission
in this city will be the scene of
history making event tomorrow when
bids will be opened at noon for the
contract for the completion of the
Panama canal. Though it has been
customary to speak of the building IF
the canal across the isthmus as the
greatest of the kind ever attempted in
history, few persons have any adequate
conception of the real magnitude of the
project.
The canal is to be 1000 feet wide
from deep water in the Caribbean sea
and in the Bay of Panama to certain
points within the isthmus, where it will
be narrowed to 500 feet in width, and
at the deep cut on the Culebra section
to 200 feet in width. The depth is
to be forty-two feet at mean low tide
the entire distance. This means total
excavation of 131 ,63S, 900 cubic yards
of earth. In addition to these figures
stated that the construction involves
2,99S,192 cubic yards or concrete mas
onry, 1900 cubic yards of cut stone,
and 85,910,000 pounds of steel.
1t is expected the bids for the COM
pletion of the canal will average in the
neighborhood of $10O,0OO,0O0. Foreign
contractors are barred from the COM
petition. Owing to the magnitude ct
the undertaking it is expected that no
individual firm will be awarded the
contract. No one firm in the world
has ever undertaken to do all of the
different kinds of work involved in the
construction Of the canal. The govern
ment has encouraged the suggestion
that contractors who have had exper-
fence in excavation in dry earth should
join with others who have specialized
in dredging, in dam construction and

NEILsV|LlE SUIT WAS DISMISSED
A Famous Ditch Case Has Been Ended
In Court-Case Arose Over
Damming of a Drain.

The case of Chas. Rambol vs.. c. ].
Peterson has been dismissed the coun-
ty attorney not thinking there was sur
ficient evidence to secure conviction
in the district court. Two cases have
resulted from the controversy. In the
first place Rambol sued Peterson for
damages for having obstructed ditch,
this case coming before a justice at
Melville near where both parties
reside. The justice dismissed the case
Later q criminal action was brought
against Peterson before Judge Wilde
in Crookston, the defendant was fined
81. Even this small verdict was ap-
pealed from, however. and when the
case came up for consideration by the
district court the county attorney de-
cided that to prosecute would be a use
less expense for the county as con-
viction was highly improbable, as the
ditch was not public waterway, but
private ditch.

BANKS ARE CONSOLIDATING
Craze Of Establishing Banking In.
stitutions(in North Dakota Has
Died Out Already.

The craze for the establishment OF
banks which has been rampant in
North Dakota for the past few years
seems to be dying out and in place of
1t has come a season of consultations.
At least this is the opinion of prom
inent local bankers. For several years
numerous banks have been established
in towns of mushroom growth, the
townsite would scarcely be plated be-
fore bank would be organized and
not infrequently the bank building has
been the first business block to be
erected.
Now the numerous small banks are
being consolidated, for in some instan-
ces there were two and three banks
in small town.

in heavy concrete work. But If several
firms or individuals associate in the
undertaking they must be legally or
ganized into single corporation to
whom the contract can be let as a
whole. Bidders will not be con-
sidered who have not available capital
of at least $5.O0O,000. A certified check
for 100000 is required with each pro-
posal, and bond of 100000 will be
required from the successful bidder.
Under the terms of the contract the
government agrees to furnish all the
permanent plants and most of the
material, while the contractor must
furnish the men, the loose tools and
light machinery. The government will
furnish the railway and all locomotives
and cars, steam shovels, drills, dredges,
tugs, scows, all electric light and
power necessary and fixed machinery
of a substantial character, but not
hand tools or light machinery. It will
furnish all raw materials, such as
cement, explosives and fuel that have
to be imported, but the contractor will
have to treat, shape and finish them.
The government will furnish the bar
racks, warehouses for tools and sup
plies, hospitals and medical service, Of
flee buildings, mess houses and lodg-
ings for employees SO far as they now
exist, but If more is needed they will
have to be provided by the contractors.

supplies at half rate; it will furnish
the telegraph and telephone service;
it will DO all the engineering work, ad-
