MAN FOUND DEAD
ON THE RAILROAD
MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF AGED
MAN NEAR THE CITY TODAY.

An aged man, "A stranger in this
section. dropped dead this afternoon
about o'clock at point on the
Grand avenue road and just east Of
where the road crosses the railroad
track Late this afternoon Sheriff
Schrader and Coroner Day were noti-
fled and the coroner will go out late
this afternoon or early this evening
The body of the aged man was
found by young son of Mr.. Allen
dar, ranchman who resides near
Clifton.
Just after one of the west-bound
passenger trains had been seen to
pass the crossing the Allender boy
who was in a field, saw the old man
walking away from the railroad
track. He had a bundle of blankets
on his shoulder. Suddenly the stran-
ger dropped into the road.
The boy. thinking that perhaps
the man had been struck by the
train and dangerously hurt, rushed
over to him, only to find that the old
man was dying. He lived but a few
minutes, did not regain conscious
ness and died there in the road. An
examination proved that the old man
was not injured on the body in any
manner: consequently he was not
struck by the train. 1t is believed
that he died from heart failure.
The remains will be brought to
Grand Junction tonight and an sf-
fort made to establish the identity
Whether the old man was walking
to this city is not known.
The man appeared to be about Sc
or 50 years of age.

Washington, Feb. 17.-Any attack
made hereafter on the lock type of
the Panama canal, according to the
opinion expressed by President Roose-
welt in his message transmitting to
congress today the report made by
the engineers who recently visited
the canal zone with President-elect
Taft, is in reality merely an attack
upon the policy of building any ca
nal at all.
The report of the engineers, in the
presidents opinion, shows in the
clearest fashion that congress was
wise in the position it took and that
it would be an ineXcusable folly to
change from the proposed lock ca
nal to sea level canal.
The president says that the engin-
eers' report shows that the only crit
icism that can be made of the work
on the isthmus is that there has been
at times an utmost excess of caution
in providing against any possible
trouble; as, for instapce, at the Ga
tun dam itself, the report shows that
not only is the dam safe, but that, on
the whole. the plan already adopted
would make it unnecessarily high
and strong, and accordingly they rec
ommend that the height of same be
reduced by 20 feet, which changed
the plans. The engineers say that
they are satisfied that there will be
no dangerous or Objectionable seep-
age through the materials under the
base of the dam, nor are the materi-
ais so soft as to be liable to be pushed
aside by the weight of the proposed
dam so as to cause dangerous set

A SPECIAL MESSAGE TODAY
Declares That it Would Be Folly to
Change to a Sea Level Canal
Work is Praised

tlement.
The dams, lock gates and all other
engineering structures involved in
the construction of the lock canal
are, according to the engineers, safe.
The engineers find no occasion for
changing the type of the canal, and
say that the change to a sea level
plan would merely add to the cost
and the time of construction without
any compensating advantages, either
in the capacity of the canal or in the
safety to navigation, and would be
public misfortune.
The engineers estimate that the
complete cost of the canal will be
$50 million dollars. They say that
it is incorrect to state that the orig
inal estimate of the cost was 40
million dollars, as this does not in
clude sanitation and the zone gov
ernment. They estimate the expense
of sanitation and zone government
at 27 million dollars, while the pay
ment to the republic of Panama and
the new Panama Canal Company
amounted to so million dollars,
which would make the difference be-
tween the present estimate and the
previous one with the cost of sani-
tation and zone government added
only 143 million dollars. OF this
amount nearly one-half can be ac-
counted for by the changes in the
canal and it's appurtenant works.
In the opinion of the engineers,
the work is well organized and is
being conducted energetically and
we'll. They see no reason why the
canal should not be completed by
January 1, 1915.
