A PANAMA REPORT
The Canal Commission Gives Details
of work Accomplished Under
Army Engineers.
HAS NOW COST $685., ITO
Contract System is Not Favored-No
Yellow Fever Originated There
During Year-Good Foun-
daton for Locks.

Washington, Nov. 2S.-Full details
of the work done on the Panama canal
during the fiscal year 1907 with a
showing OF what has been accom-
plished since the project has been in
American hands, are disclosed in the
annual report of the Isthmian Canal
commission made public Tuesday. 1t
is the first report made of operations
on the Isthmus since construction
work has been in charge of Army En-
gineers. Aside from the $4,000, 900
paid to the French company and to
Panama an aggregate of $48,2S5, ITO
has been expended by the government
on the project adopted by congress and
which it was estimated by the board of
consulting engineers would ultimately
cost $139, 705,200 This estimate, how
ever, did not include sanitation and eX-
penses of the zone government, water
works, sewers and paving in Panama
and Colon and the re-equipment of the
Panama railroad. There is no refer
ence in the report to the proposition
which has been brought forward to eX-
tend the width of the locks to 10 feet
so as to accommodate without diff
Guilty the extreme breadth in the devel-
opment of shipbuilding and this will be
made the subject of special commu-
nication from the commission. A
strong position is taken favorable to n
continuation of the policy of doing the
w0rk NV hirp1 instead Of nv contract
labor, step at one time seriously con-
sidered by the administration and
many arguments are presented to ius
tify the commission in its conclusion
that the canal can he built better
cheaper and more quickly by the gov
eminent. Sanitation. upon which so
much depends for the comfort and
health of the employees, is treated of in
the report, statement is made of
what has been done and the declara-
ti0l made that there was no yellow
fever originating on the isthmus dur
ing the year
AS bearing on the question of the
suitability of the foundations FIR the
proposed lock sites, the report quotes
from the conclusions of board of con-
sulting engineers who made a personal
examination of the material at the lock
sites and which found that all of the
locks of the dimensions then proposed
ian 85-foot level canaD. would rest on
rock of such a character that would
furnish safe and stable foundation.

street. Here was howdy-do! Sud-
denly Ellis let out sounding laugh,
and, scarcely knowing why, we joined
him. 1t was funny, very funny. for
every one but poor old Max! The
American spirit is based on the sense
of humor, and even in tragic moments
is irrepressible.
We did not return to Muller's; each
of us stole quietly home to await the
advent of the police, for they would
rout out every American in town in
their search for the man with the gun.
They would first visit the consulate
fair; when they got through with the
rest of the boys Max would be in Dop-
pelkinn. The police were going to be
very busy that night: a princess on
one hand and an anarchist on the
other.
There were terrible times, too. in
the palace. Long before we watcas1
Maxs train and the vanishing green
and red lights at the end of it the
grand duke was having troubles of ais
own. He was pacing wildly up and
down in his dressing-room. ClutcVN
in his fist was a crumpled sheet of pa
per. From time to time he smoothed
it out and reread the contents. Each
time he swore like the celebrated man
in Flanders.
You forced me and l warned you
that I would do something desperate.
Do not send for me, for you will never
find me till you come to your senses.

A Students Fatal Jump.

Davenport, Ia, Nov 29-The body
of Irwin Robson, Blue Grass, Iowa.
senior at the Iowa State college at
Ames, was found Thursday evening
beside the railroad track here. He
disappeared after leaving the college
to spend the Thanksgiving vacation
with his fiancee, Katherine Carlin.
who lives near Davenport. and when
he failed to arrive in time for dinner
a search was instituted for him.
Robson had evidently been killed by
jumping from the train as it passed
the Carlin home The corpse laid
alongside the track all day. The
young man would have graduated
from the state college in February
and was to have been married to Miss
Carlin soon afterwards.

President Saw the Oxen.

Washington, Nov. 30.-President
Roosevelt stepped out of his office Fri
day and made a critical examination
of Ezra Meeker's yoke of oxen and
prairie schooner, which has just ac-
complished a 3.O0O-mile trip from the
state of Washington. the route being
over the old Oregon trail. Mr.. Meek
er was introduced to the president By
Senator Pyles and Representative
Cushman of Washington. lie made a
plea to have the Oregon trail made
a national highway and the president
listened with interest but suggested
that If done, the project would have
to be on a commercial rather than
a sentimental basis.

IF there is anything you need. make
yourself at home with my cases" And
her highness was gone.
Betty gazed at the door through
which dear Gretchen had passed, gazed
thoughtfully and anxiously.
How oddly she acted | wonder"
She made as though to run to the door,
but Slapped, as if ashamed of the doubt
which flashed into her mind and out
again.
The little clock on the mantel
chimed forth the seventh hour, and
she rang for her maid. 1t was time
that she began dressing.
(Thus, for the present, shall leave
her. There are several reasons why
my imagination should take this step;
for, what should know of woman's
toilet, save in the general mysterious
results? However l feel at liberty to

The duke was rather pleased with
himself. He liked to put on his state
uniform, with its blue-gray frock, the
white doeskin trousers which strapped
under the patent-leather boots, the gold
braid, the silver saber and the little
rope of medals strung across his full,
broad breast. 1t was thus he created
awe; 1t was thus he became truly the
sovereign, urbane and majestic.
His valet was bucBling on the sabeT
belt, when there came a respectful tap
on the door.
Enter" said the duke, frowning.
One can not assert any particular de
gree of dignity with a valet at ones
side.
But it was only corridor attendant
who entered. He approached the
dukes valet and presented a letter.
For his serene highness." He bowed
and backed out, closing the door
gently.
At once the valet bowed also and
the letter to his master. For
mality is fine thing in a palace.

Expenses of $4,000 have already been
allowed the receiver and his attorney.
H. H. Tucker, jr., former secretary
and manager and one of the principal
stockholders in the rejuvinated COM

lowing of these amounts. He stated
Wednesday that the sums asked are
excessively large and that plans were
on foot by the stockholders of the
company to have a congressional in
