ACROSS THE BORDER.

Mexican Herald: According to reports from San Antonio, Texas, Mexican hats are going into the United States by large shipments. One firm of that city is reported as having paid $1,03710, gold, duty, on one shipment of Mexican hats. This is only one instance, and other shipments of that size are reported. Not all of the shipments go to San Antonio, but many of them go to all the border towns, such as Laredo, Eagle Pass and El Paso. All towns in the southern part of the state depend to a cer- tain extent on Mexico for their hat supply.
 Mexican Herald With the rob- bery of at least $5O,OOO worth of goods and money from the Durango pawn shop at Gomez Palacio and at Lerdo, and the ab- solute inability of the manage ment and detectives to locate the thief, a most inexplicable and mysterious condition of affairs is reigning in those places at the present time. The robberies are known to have been going on for some time, but every effort put forth either to stop them or appre- bend the culprits has met with failure. It is said that the short age at the pawnshop in Gomez Palacio will amount to $16,0O0, and that at Lerdo to $34,000.
 Mexican Herald: The walkout of car repairers and mechanics in the National shops at Monterey has resulted in no trouble, say officials of the road here. It is stated that most of the men have already returned to work and that the shops will be running with the full force within a short time. No trouble of any kind was expert enced, the men only objecting to the presence of a superintendent whom they did not like. Officials of the road say that the orders of the superintendent will be carried out, and that no trouble will be experienced in filling the places yet remaining to be filled. The walkout of mechanics at Laredo continues the same, and work there has been distributed to other shops on the line, so that the strike has caused little trouble.
 Mexican Herald: Lakes to fur nish water for engines and other purposes, in place of the old reli- able we'll is new idea being tried on the International between Mon terey and Reata. One lake for ex- perimental purposes Is being con- structed about 100 kilometers out from Monterey, and when com pleted will be fed by ditch which will bring water from the noun tains. It is expected that the lake water will prove more satisfactory than that from artesian wells and will be less expensive in the end The main trouble with the water supply is that the water from ar tesian wells contains so much alkali that it makes great deal oi trouble. The alkali settles on the insides of the boilers, necessitating frequent cleaning to prevent dam age to the boilers. As the lake water will be all surface water, il ;e tbo,,oht if vvill prOva roora Catic.

COST LIMIT UP IN HOUSE.
Effort Is Made, without Result, to
Restrict Expenditures.

In the course Of a brief discussion in
the House yesterday on the motion 70
send the sundry civil bill to conference.
Mr.. Sullivan, Of Massachusetts. adverted
10 the necessity OF limiting in some way
the amount that may be expended for the
construction Of the Panama Canal
He said that when the House Commit
toe on Appropriations recommended. and
the House adopted the recommendation
that the President be left free TO proceed
with the construction Of the waterway
without restriction Of any kind, 1t was
the belief that the work would be done
by contract; but now conditions were
changed and no one knew what plan Of
construction would be followed. In view
Of that. he suggested to Chairman TaW-
ney that q joint resolution be adopted
fixing some limit to the cost of the en-
terprise a contract might be awarded
before the next Congress.
Air Mann. Of Illinois, expressed the
opinion that Mr.. Sullivan's fear was un-
founded. Figures furnished by the Canal
Commission showed that with the organ
ization now effected on the isthmus. more

tract would be executed TO put that or
ganizatiOn out of commission.
Answering questions by Messrs. Sulli-
van and Fitzgerald. Mr. Mann admitted
that he could give, no assurance on that
point
At the conclusion Of the discussion a
conference on the sundry civil bill was
requested. The House conferees are
Messrs Tawney. Smith Of Iowa, and
Taylor.

Donald. OF New York, Is the president
submitted the lowest bid for the con-
tract. came 70 Washington yesterday. He
has not been officially notified OF the re-
lection OF his bid but expects to be to
day He may then have something
to say about what he thinks Of the whole
nuddle- Mr.. Oliver before making any
statement wants to consult with his asso-
ciates
Mr. Mcdonald is coming to Washington
from Augusta, where he is playing golf In
a day or two. Mr. Oliver thinks that
his association fulfilled every requirement
made by the government in the contract
matter. and he is pretty sore that his
company was not given the award. The
company loses between 10000 and $4,000,
fully as much as that having been spent
IN preparing 10 make the bid.
Speculation on Outcome.
Throughout the government there IS
lively speculation as TO what Will be done.
The President, Secretary Taft. Secretary
Root. and the other cogs of the admins
tration wheel are discussing the same
momentous question with as much vigor
and interest as the elevator boy and the
messenger in the Canal Commission
Offices, who are not certain their jobs
are safe.
Joseph BucSlin Bishop. secretary Of the
Canal Commission. will be in charge OF
the Washington offices of the Canal Com
mission when Chairman Shonts' resigna-
ton takes effect The Offices here are re-
garded as necessary, and there will prob
ably be no change.
1t was learned yesterday that the mat
ter Of the employment Of Chinese in Pan
anna is still open. and viii be until Mai
GOethals has an opportunity to make an
investigation OF and a report on the labor
conditions. The Canal Commission has
before it two bids Tor furnishing $3.50
coolie Iaborers They were submitted last
year. but an award has never been made
There still appears TO be a possibility Of
at least a part OF the work in Panama
being done by contract Tt is cOntended
that army engineers are much better at
directing work done by contractors than
initiating it themselves. A consideration
of letting any contracts brings out horde
of difficulties The whole question will not
be settled until Maj. Goethals has inves-
tgated and made report. This viii
probably not be before several months
have passed.
The salaries Of all the army officers as
signed 10 the canal will be materially in
creased. The President realizes the diff
culties of living IN Panama and he hopes
10 make an arrangement whereby Mai
Goethals can get away four months every
year.
A new Canal Commission will be APP
pointed as soon as the Senate has passed
on the appointments now before II, The
personnel Of the new organization will be
