Sec. Hitchcock Defends
Administrations Action
Regarding Appointments

First Assistant Postmaster General
Hitchcock. referring 70 the criticism OF
the Civil Service Reform League, today
took occasion 10 defend the present ex-
ecutive administration OF the depart
ment in its appointment Of pOstmasters.
1T is the aim Of the department" he
said. ''to recommend appointments from
the service with the view Of securing
higher efficiency. Recently there have
been several appointments Of assistants
to occupy vacancies. The latest is that
Of Oakland, Cal.
Further than this the department
favors. where it is possible. the con-
solidation Of smaller with larger offices
Where this is done superintendent will
take the place OF the former pOstmsst-
er's post. As they are appointed under
civil service rules. II is practically
bringing so much more OF the depart
nent under that system.
Eventually this will be done IN the
whole department, but Il will be a slow
process, largely one OF education. Since
the administration Of Mr.. COrtelyOu
every effort has been made 10 Introduce
the system Of appointment on service
basis"

ton Took S, 100000.

The sum Of s4s. 2S5,110 had been ex-
pended for work upon the Panama
Canal up 10 June 80 Of this year, ac-
cording TO the annual report Of the
Isthmian Canal Commission, some ad-
vance figures from which are printed in
the latest number OF the Canal Record.
The total cost of the canal work I'D to
the beginning of this fiscal year is
Sos, 2S5. 10. The estimate adopted by
Congress Of the total cost of the canal
was SIS, 10000, which did not include
sanitation and expenses Of the Zone
government, waterworks, sewers. and
paving in Panama aad Colon
On the actual construction OF the
canal there has been expended SIS, 7S2, $50;
on buildings. $3.50. SS4; on Panama
waterworks, etc, Sl.2I7, AS; on Colon
waterwOrks. etc. SOS. 30Z: on Panama
railroad advances. s., S26. $50; making a
total Of SIS, 49,. ass expended on con-
struction and engineering. The total
spent on civil government in the Zone
has been S2,5lS276, and on sanitation
s.. So, 20S.
The total force Of skilled and unskHed
labOrers OF the Isthmian anal Commits
sion and the Panama railroad on June
50, 1896, was 1850, and on June 80, 1907,
1t was g. 49, or an increase Of 10000
men. During the fiscal year 20 SS4 men
were brought 10 the isthmus from the
United States, Europe and the West
Indies. At the close of the year there
were 2.20S buildings in use as quarters
The number Of meals served during
the month of June was as follows:
Hotels, 197. 4lS; messes. 2S6, I55; kitchens
456.765, or nearly million meals for the
month
The important announcement is made
from the isthmus that the new borings
which have been made over the entire
area Of the lock site at Gatun show that
the locks will rest for their whole
length on rocks. All doubt on this
point has. il is stated, been removed.
This is the locality about which there
has been so much controversy, and upon
which it is intended TO erect the greatest
lock and dam system ever attempted in
the world. 1t is the key Of the whole
high level lock project of the Panama
canal. and officials here are much
pleased at the assurance that all doubts
as to the safety Of the foundation have
been removed

With palatial steamers sailing morning

ton Steamboat Company's service to

as can be desired. The double daily
sailings give tourists a choice Of trip
by day or night, as one prefers, and II
is difficult 10 say which service is the
more popular A nights rest IN the

Seventh street wharf at 8 a. m. night
boats at $50 p, m. Passengers are given
an excellent chance to see the assem-
blage Of warships at anchor in Hamp-

the exposition pier. Convenience of con
nectiOns is another factor IN pOpulariZ-
ing this line with tourists. Rail cOnnec-
tons for all points are made at Norfolk,
