WARRANTS ISSUED
Jury Returns True Bill Against
Editors.
INVOLVING PURCHASE OF CANAL
Bench Warrants For Editors-Feder-
al Grand jury at Washington Re-
turns IndictmentS For Criminal
Libel Against The New York
World aad The indianapolis News.

Washington Special.-Bench war
rants were Issued late Wednesday
Tor the arres of Jospeh Pulitzer,
proprietor, a,d Caleb Al. VanHamm
and Robert II. Lyman, editors Of
The New Yo'k World; and for LEILA
van Smith and Charles R. Williams,
owners of The Indianapolis News,
for criminal libel in connection with
the publication in those newspapers
OF charges Of irregularities in the
purchase by the United States gov
ernment of he Panama canal prop
erty from the French owners.
The indictments on which the war;
rants were based were returned We'd
nesday by tle United States grand
jury sitting IN this city and the war
rants were Issued later by the clerk
of criminal ,ourt No. l. The war
rants are directly against all five Of
the natural defendants of the two
newspapers. The summons requires
the corporate defendant (the Press
Publishing Company, of New York;,
to appear in court forthwith to ans
wer the Indictment.
Theodore Roosevelt, William III.
Taft, Elihu Root. ]. Piermont Nor
gen, Charles P. Taft. Douglas Robin
son and William Nelson. Cromwell
are named in the indictment as the
persons alleged to have been villified
by the stories appearing in the two
newspapers.
Failure of an attempt to blackmail
him onnNrlirnr -
Cromwell. was the reason for tho
publication of the stories, which, he
declared "were exceptional and pre-
medltated and made with free knowl-
edge of their Infamous source and
after specific warning by me of their
falsity.''
"The stories," he added, "were
concoeted more than two and a half
Years ago by unscrupulous parties in
New York, some of whom have GRIM
lnal records, in an attempt to black
mail me.' He said that he was ask
ed to pay $25,000 to have the stories
suppressed.
81 do not believe The World was
a party to these attempts, but it was
dealing with tho same gang. The
indictment of The New York World
and The Indianapolis News is not an
indictment of the press of the United
States, as they would like to make it
appear to obtain the support of the
general press of the country. I am
in favor OF a free and unmuzzled
press"
The Indianapolis News men an
nounce that they will fight extradi-
tion to the District of Columbia.

form tight, stable ond permanent
dam"
Dams and locks, lock gates and all
other engineering structures involved
in the lock canal project are "feas-
lble and safe" accoding to the en-
gineers, "and they can be depended
upon to perform with certainty their
respective functions"
Having considered the proper
height for the crest of the Gatun
dam, they concluded that "it could
be safely reduced 20 feet from that
originally proposed; namely to an
elevation of 115 feet above sea level.
or 30 feet above the normal level
of the water against the DAM" This
change has been ordered.
Their estimate of the complete
cost of the canal is $36O,OOO, 900.
They say it is incorre' It to state that
the original estimate of cost was
14O,000.G00, as they did not include
sanitation and zone government. :"
They estimate the expense of sani-
tation and zone government at $27,-
100000, while payments to the Re-
public of Panama and to the new
Panama Canal Company amounts {,
$50, 100000, which would make the
difference between the present estI-
mate and the previous estimate, with
cost of sanitation and zone govern
ment and payments, added, only
$143, 100000. "Of this amount"
they say, "nearly one-half can be
accounted for by the changes in the
canal and appurtenant works already
referred to and the remainder is TO
be attributed mainly to the higher
unit cost Of the different items of
the work.

on every submerged ledge and was
Dorne on every unknown tidal cur
rent; that the skeleton of some of
the ships would doubtless be left in
the Straits of Magellan; that, if the
neet should succeed in rounding
South America it was reasonably eer-
tain that the individual ships would,
one by one, arrive with machineries
loose and almost unservicable, with
crews rejecting the demoralized con-
dition Of the material, and that a
woeful spectacle of failure would
thus be presented.
Gas to the material. the cold facts
are that the ships have practically
taken care of their own repairs on
this cruise. The repair lists turned
In at the Cavite naval station were
negligible"
That the experience gained on the
cruise will be of unending benefit to
the navy is indicated from the fact
that probably one-half of the entire
personnel Of the naval establishment
participated in the epoch-making
trip. Three of the sixteen captains
who sailed in command of vessels arc
returning home as rear admirals.
Eight other captains are returning in
command of the same ship on which
they began the journey of the world.
From rear admiral down to midship-
man the training has been such as 10
other naval cruise ever afforded.
Among the enlisted men the training
has been even more valuable. Lands
men shipped just before that start
and utterly green in the ways of the
deep, are coming home an integral
part OF wonderful fleet efficiency
and loyal believers in all that the
American navy stands for. Deser-
tions on the ships have been few. The
men have taken a pride in the cruise.
and it will be constant boast with
them that they started to the west
from Hampton Roads and came home
with prows still turned in that direc-
tion. They know the world is round,
and they know what it is to work and
play over $4,000 miles of the water
ed surface of the globe.

in effect. The employees stood for
nine-hour schedule while the South
ern officials wanted ten-hour rule.
The employees feel that they have
been treated very generously by the
management in that all they have
asked for has been granted. The ma
chinists are to receive 32 cents per
hour. The other crafts affected by
the new scale includes the boiler
makers, blacksmiths, carmen and
pipemen. General satisfaction is ex-
pressed that the matter has been
amicnblv settled for another year over
the whole system.
