SToney for Canal.

Washington, Jan. t7.-Lieutenant Colonel GoethaIs, Chairman and Chief Engineer of the Isthmian Canal Com mission. told the Senate Committee on Inter- Oceanic Canals today that great deal of attention had been paid to the deep formations at the Gatun Dam site and other points on the canal where locks are to be erected.
 By a series of drill holes and test pits it was finally determined to the complete satisfaction of engineers, that the underlying material was of suffi- cient strength to hold the foundations for the lock.
 In Culebra cut, the Chairman inform ed the Committee, a great deal closer Inspection was necessary as the foun- dations at that point were varied in nature and at some points very soft sandstone underlies the harder mate- rial.
 "Tt has been determined. however" said the Chairman. that the overly ing sandstone Is of ample strength to uphold the lock structure"
 In the Culebra lock, Colonel tSoethals said he hoped to have sufficient exca- vation done in January, 1909, to permit the laying of cement.
 Speaking of the deficiency in the ap- propriation that had been incurred by the Canal Commission in expenses on fine canal since last August, Colonel Goe- thafs said that subtracting surplus moneys that had accrued from certain funds this deficit amounted now to sif 403. .439. He however, requested a deficieney appropriation of $l2.l79.000 to cover all estimates
