NEW AND BIGGER ESTl-
MATES FOR PANAMA CANAL

Washington, jan l0.-Because OF
changed conditions from those existing
in 1915, when the minority of the board
of consulting engineers OF the Panama
canal submitted its report, II Is now
admitted In responsible quarters that
the estimate made by that report for
building the canal was far too low, and
the cost may approximate $500, 900, 900.
This includes various incidental items
such as administration, sanitation and
improvements agregating several mil
lions of dollars in Panama and Colon.
which. however, will be refunded by
the Panama government, and the ex-
penses OF the zone government and va
rious expenses Incidental to the reloca-
ton and acquisition of the Panama
railroad. The estimate of the board I'm
1905 was that the cost of the canal
would be S139,765, 200, but this estimate
did not include expenses on account of
interest during construction, sanitation
and zone gOvermet.
Last spring the present commission
made some general estimates of the
probable cost of the work, which re-
suited in placing 1t anywhere between
$210,000,000 and $3.50. 900, but the
more conservative members believed
the lower figures would prove ultimate
ly correct. Since that time sonic of the
commissioners have found that con-
Siderable saving can be made from the
lower estimate, which warrants them
in placing re estimated cost at nearer
$200,0 900 than Il higher figure. Vari-
Gus reasons are assigned for the in
creased cost, including wider and long
er locks than those proposed by the
board OF engineers, a greater quantity
of excavation than that estimated by
the board, an increase In unit prices
and higher prices for labor than those
thought adequate by the board That
board estimated the locks would cost
less than $4,000. 900. while the present
commission thinks 1t will be between
s52,000,0oo and s6o,0oO,000. with a still
greater increase of l per cent IL the
locks are further widened as proposed
by the navy department.

FORCES TO FIGHT
Issue Call for Convention at
Which Executive or Controlling
Committee viii be Elected.

Cleveland. o., Jan. 10--A call We
issued today by the F'oraker-Dick fac
ton of the Republican party in this.
Cuyahoga county for a convention
Saturday afternoon, at which it is stat
ed an executive or controlling commit
tee for the party will be chosen. Ear
ler in the day the leaders of the Taft
faction filed a request with the board
of elections asking that a primary
be held TO select So delegates to the
state convention. The Foraker-D Dick
faction leaders allege that the present
county executive committee. composed
of Taft adherents. is without power to
act. because II was chosen for one year
and has served two years without re-
election.
Each faction desires to control the
executive committee, because the COM
mittre alone has power to call a pri-
mary election for the selection OF dele
gates to the state convention.
The so-called regular committee in
its call filed with the county board of
elections, asks for primaries to be held
Feb. IL to select delegates to the state
convention. The followers OF Foraker,
who hold to the belief that the present
committee is working exclusively in the
interest Of Secy. Taft, and arrang-
ing matters so that the voters will have
no choice In the matter. filed a protest.
1t will be the duty of the board of
elections to determine which of the two
committees Is official and which call is
to be endorsed. The situation was fur
Their complicated tonight by a hurried
convention OF still another element,
which chose committee and a list of
delegates instructed to act in behalf
of President Roosevelt. The claims of
this committee will also have to be
taken into consideration by the board
of elections.
While tomorrow'S convention is ex
pected to be Foraker affair, the Taft
followers have sent out word to their
workers to be on hand and take a part
in the work, AS a result the Foraker
followers appealed to the police this
afternoon and asked for protection
against the Taft workers. who they al
lege may force an entrance and at
tempt to manipulate the convention.

These and many other questions were
volleyed at the secretary. who an
swered them with facility and great
good huinor. which reflected itself in
the attitude of his audience. One ques-
toner wanted TO know IL workinginen
were ready to work so hard for private
individuals, why they would not be
ready To work as hard for the govern
ment under federal ownership. The
secretary replied without hesitation
Because human nature is not built
along that line. II is not possible to
carry on government the same as a.
business. by individuals working for
private gain. You cannot change the
motive of enlightened sefishness into
altruism."
Seey Taft indicated clearly that
he did not think the time had come for
an income tax law. He was accored
another ovation when he finished, and
many in the audience flocked to tho
platform to shake him by the hand.
EXPLAINS CAUSE OF PANIC.
Mr.. Taft said in his address:
I'VE are suffering now from q panic.
II was brought ON, in my judgment, by
the exhaustion OF free capital the world

fidence IN our business fabric produced

Discussing the difficulties in peace.

capital and labor Mr. Taft commend

ETY., industry, skill and fidelity to the

LABOR DIFFICULTIES.
On the subject of arbitration. Mr..
Taft argued for the adjustment OF d-
Dor difficulties by submission to an Inn
partial tribunal and agreement to abide
its judgment. and in this connection
commended the Massachusetts plan.'

NEW VARIETY OF RYE-IN
CREASED YIELDS SECURED
FROM MINNESOTA No. .
RYE.

A new variety of winter rye called
MINI. No. 2, has been originated by
the Minnesota Experiment Station,
and is now ready for distribution.
This rye was obtained by selection
from the Swedish rye and is an ex-
ceptionally high yielder. The average
yield upon the station grounds for the
past 8 years is 40.4 bushels per acre,
while the average yield of other
varieties for the state in the same
time was 1872 bushels per acre. One
field of 10 acres yielded 48 bushels per
acre this fall
The grain of this new variety is
plump, and much larger than the
varieties commonly grown. The
straw is stiff. tall, and stands up we'll.
A few bushels were distributed for
trial throughout the state last year in
order that yields might be compared
under farm conditions with the COM
mon varieties The returns from the
entire acreage show that Minnesota
No 2 averaged 27.2 bushels per acre
while other rye grown under similar
averaged 17.7 bushels per
acre.

has NARROW ESCAPE
/ Chas. Barnhart Falls from
Moving Train and IS Near .
~ Run Over

Chas Barnhart narrowly. averted a
serious accident at an early hour Mon.
day morning. He was returning here
on No: 5, which was quite late, and
enroute had laid on seat to rest. He
had $6 loose change In a pocketbook
IN his side pocket, but when he got
off at the local station the pocketbook
was missing. He therefore reentered
the car, thinking it had dropped out
on the seat. The seat which he had
occupied was now taken by man.
Mr.. Barnhart therefore asked him if
he had seen a pocketbook about the
seat, to which he received an answer
in the negative. Meanwhile the train
had started, and had proceeded as far
as the freight house when Mr.
Barnhart went to get out Just then
he stumbled and fell to the ground
close by the moving train, one arm
extending across rail under a car.
He barely missed having it crushed
under the wheels, as just as he jerked:
his arm away the bumpers of the car
past. He sustained some bad
bumps on the head, and, his left ear
had a slit from the top down. The
injuries were dressed and he IS able to
be about as usual.
