WASHINGTON, December 23-The
excavation on the line of the Panama
canal last month. aggregating 1888, ,4s6
cubic yards. would have covered ten
blocks to a depth of forty feet. No
such work has ever been done before
as Colonel Goethals has been doing on
the isthmus, according to statistics
presented in the official canal record
lust received. For instance, 1t is
shown that every fifty working days
the commission is moving an amount
of material equal to the Pyramid of
Cheops, which consumed the labor of
100000 men for twenty years in the
building, and the services of the same
number of men for ten years in con-
structing the road connecting the work
with the quarry.
The commission could build the Suez
canal at the present rate of progress
in 3S years, though it took ten years
for De Lesseps to complete his work
The famous Manchester ship canal
could be excayated by the American
canal workers in just two months, and
even Emperor Williams magnificent
leans in just five years.
According to the latest health report
from. Panama, the isthmus has been
free from yellow fever for more than
eighteen months.
