GoETHALS CLEARED OF CHARGE
General darlington Finds Unfair
Treatment Was Not Accorded
to Cable Company.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-Inspector Gen
eral Darlington of the army, in a report
made public today, exonerated Chairman
Goethals Of the Isthmian canal commission
of the charge made by President Brothers
of the Balanced Crane Gable company Of
New York, who claimed that unfair treat
ment was accorded him in the award for
diminishing and erecting cable ways at
Gatun on the isthmus. General Darlington
holds that there was no collusion. that the
award was made in good faith, and recon-
mends that the contract with the Lidger-
wood company be proceeded with. The re-
port was approved by the secretary of war.
The report says the device Of the Broth
ers company was not suitable for work at
Gatun plant and there was nothing adduced
in the investigation to indicate other move
than 10 put Brothers in touch with technl-
cal scientific engineers who could probably
perfect the device so as to make It practic-
able for work on the Pedro Miguel and
Mira Flores locks.
