He gave complete review of the
conditions In the canal zone.
He expressed the opinion that the
canal would be completed within six
years from next July, and the ulti-
mate cost would be 100000. 900. In
cluding the purchase price.
The secretary at various times
brought out the difficulties that be-
set the canal commission. These
ranged from the trouble with the
Pacific Mail Steamship Company for
failure to furnish enough steamers.
to the labor difficulties.
The secretary said that. owing to
the inadequacy of the steamer SER
vice. the business of the Panama
railroad had fallen OF fully one-half
since the government took possession
and 1t is a question in his mind as
to whether the government should
not engage IN the steamship business
on the Pacific in order to retain the
Panama route now existing and keep
the isthm mian business from going via
Tehauutepec or some other route.
The secretary urged that no re-
ductions be made in the wages at
Panama In spite of the fact that
skilled labor there is now earning
from SO to 60 per cent more than In
the United States. His opinion was
that any reduction would result in
serious labor difficulties.
He declared that 1t was not so un-
healthy to live in the tropics as for
merly.
"This year has satisfied me-" said
Mr.. Taft. that the contract system
for doing the work on the Panama
canal is impracticable." He added
that any firm able to supply the large
amount of money needed to carry on
the work would demand such a prof
