Baltimore and Ohio train No from
Chicago for New York left the track
about a mile cast OF McSpaden's, a

TO the other cars of tho train having
spread the rails. According to this
passenger the last car was occupied
by about thirty people, three of them
children. At the rear OF the car was
an observation platform, upon which
half score OF the passengers were

William g. Dickinson Has Kept
Tabs Seven Years-Favors
Present Method.

The special aldermanic committee
appointed 10 give a hearing 10 the petit
tion that some new arrangement be
made or the raising and lowering Of
the city flag on the central green. held n
session last night in city hall, but did
ter. Both sides of the question were
argued. William c. Dickinson, n
prominent member of Nathan Hale
camp. Sons of Veterans. spoke in ia
vor of the continuance of the present
arrangements, stating that in his opln-
ion the change suggested Of asking the
secretary of war to designate some
members OF tho local recruiting station
to do the work would be unwise and
was also unnecessary. He thought the
present way of doing the work was n
good one, and suggested that nm as
sistant be provided, so that the nag
would not touch the ground. He handed
IN statement OF his stand on tho mat
ter in which he records the curious fact
that he has kept complete records Of
tho raising and lowering OF the flag
during the past seven years, and dur
ing that time II has not been raised
on So days. of which about sixty were
itself, and ali but forty-four were
stormy days.
Arthur c. Graves also opposed any
change, considering that the present
method Is all right Major JuddinR-
ton and Lieutenant Hugo appeared in
favor of n change. but thought il
should not be done by having the ma
tlonal government take any part They
favored giving the charge OF the flag

They opposed the suggestion that q

on the ground that this Ia no military
encampment and that the raising and
lowering 10 bugle call would tend 10
cheaper that ceremony.

TALKS CANAL AT NORWICH
Predicts Completion of Isthmus Wa
tcrway Within Five Years and
Sees Its Value Com
merclally.

Norwich, May 29-Secretary Will
liam II. Taft tonight delivered n lee
ture on Panama before the Nor
witch Board OF Trade dealing with
the subject entirely in It's historical
and commercial aspects. lie made no
reference to his recent trip to the 18th
mus. He expressed his conviction
that the canal would be completed not
later than five years from the pres
ent. Mr.. Taft was warmly greeted
during his lecture and the audience
which crowded the Broadway theater
rose to its feet to show It's apprec!a-
ton Of the le1 ure. Later the secre-
tary was the guest of the board at a
dinner. He will go to New York in
the morning.
Beginning the address, Secretary
Taft took up the history OF the settle
ment of the isthmus Of Panama from
Bilboa's discovery to the time Of the
gold fever In California.
Secretary Taft paid several trib-
utes TO the French who tried TO build
the canal because, he said, through
their failures the Importance Of max
ing the zone healthy and of having
complete governmental control, came
home 10 us, and there is absolute
tranquility among the people.
The secretary said that II IL had not
been for the Spanish war II would not
have been possible to build the canal.
That war taught us how to fight, sup
press and stamp out tropical fevers.
AS TO the length of time 1t will take
to build thecanal, he said two factors
have to be taken Into consideration. one
of these being tho construction of the
Gatun dam. The cutting down OF the
Culebra cut at this rate of progress
ougt not to be over four years, he said,
for one million cubic yards of materl-
al Is taken out each month, and the to-
tai to be excayoted In the cut is es-
timated at 43,000,000 cubic yards. Sec
rotary Taft explained the proposed con-
struction of the dam, which, he said
had been criticised, and the precautions
to be taken to make the foundation firm
enough to hold the enormous weight OF
the dam.
He said that he believed 1t would
take less than five years to put In
the masonry, basing his conviction on
the fact that the American engineers
have always been able to find short
cuts to successful accomplishment OF
their work
The organization of the force on the
isthmus. the secretary said. was tri-
butte to the ability of John F. Stevens
now vice president of the New York
New Haven and Hartford railroad. The
work will be carried forward by tho
army and navy engineers. The work
will be accomplished. he said. because
there Is no graft In IL.
In conclusion the SECRETARY spoke OF
the commercial side of the project, a:
It will open o short cut for trade tc
the orient.
