Though these estimates were made
Il year ago, the commission states that
there is no occasion to make any con-
crete laying in the Gatun locks will

AIRY /. 1913. this will not delay the
erection OF the gates or the compile
iion OF the work as whole.
Time can be saved by making public
announcement OF the rates to be
charged and the formulation of rules
by which the tonnage of ships Is to
be determined. The commission is al
ready preparing much Information on
these points for the guidance Of Con-
Sress In legislat ting next session.
The commission expressed the belief
that IL can secure the best operating
force for the canal from among the
workers now employed on the canal.
High wages were paid at the outset
when 1t was difficult TO obtain men on
account of the bad reputation OF the
country and the temporary character
OF the employment. But the commits
sion contended mat as the death rate
on the zone IS much lower than for
most parts OF the United States, and
as tho operating work will be perma-
nent. a much lower wage scale can
be adopted. The commission regarded
ii as essential that the cost of opera
tica shall be reduced to minimum
consistent with efficiency II reasonable
tolls arc TO be established
The total outlay for maintaining the
canal Will be for wages of the opera
tive force, engineering work, santa
uon and civil administration. The
commission was inslstent that the
revenue Of tine canal should go to pay
not only the operating expenses. but
TO repay the capital invested.
Every legitimate means for raising
port, which recommended that the gov.
eminent should not only supply coal
and oil for IT'S own vessels. but should
sell them to merchant shipping. The
EXISTING commlssary. manufacturing
plant and laundry, IT was urged, should
be continued for the benefit of govern
ment forces and government owner
ship OF public utilities was proposed
in a recommendation that the commits
sary furnish all these things to ship
ping Passing through the canal for a
consideration. II WAS suggested that
the government should sell tools and
appliances needed by ships, still an
other forward movement, should ac-
tually undertake to dock and repair
ships in the neighborhood of the canal.
For that purpose the construction OF a
dry dock and a machine shop was rec
commended and it was poited out that
these would be available for the use OF
our navy. a wireless station for naval
and commercial use was another ad-
junct required.

TEXAS ID VOTE
 ON PROHIBITION
LEGISLATURE ADJouRN5 WITT STATEWIDE SUBMISSION AS
 THE FEATURE.
No Railroad Consolidation Bills Al lowed to Become Laws by Gov
 nor colqultt.

Austin. Tex, March 1.-The Texas legislature adjourned at legislative neon today. which was in reality ? o'clock regular time.
 The result of sixty-day session IS that the prohihitionists have domi- mated the legislature, the governor, witn his veto authority has dominated them and tine issue of prohibition in Texas now we'll up to the people to be decided in a general state election to be held in July to decide this para mount question. Tae vote to be cast upon that momentous occasion does not in any particular interfere with the laws of Texas. It merely applies as to whether all Texas goes dry or whether that part of it goes dry.
 If the new territory doesn't go dry by the July electi 1t will remain as at present. If otherwise all Texas is dry and the legislature by reason of Governor Colquitt's executive axe has finally submitted the issue sing,y and alone to the public to be decided in July.
 Other matters of general and state importance have been acted upon, but the most important of all is the fact that Governor Colquitt has refused to permit any raidroad consolidation bills to become laws, also refused 10 approve of any city charters thas have the referendum and recall clause in them, tabooes entirely all efforts to have golf or social clubs that pay fed eral liquor license, but does. not pay state license and recommends their abolition. He regrets that the pres ent legislature has not passed an ap- propriation or a state tax bill, but gives no promise of special session to reclaim the omission and there stand tonight. with the legis- lature adjourned finally. and no pro visions made for financial mainten ance of the state for the next two years.

PROPOSE To UNITE
WITH COAL MINERS
Important Question Before the
Western Federation Con-
yentiOn at Butte.

BUTTE, Mont, July 2l,-What is
looked upon by the delegates to the
nineteenth annual convention of the
Western Federation of Miners as the
most important move since the opening
of the session was made this morning
by DcIegates John Vickers of Butte
No, l. who introduced resolution pro.
vidins that the Western Federation of
Miners apply for admission into the
United Mine Workers OF America and
surrender their charter 10 the latter
body, with further provision that n
committee of five be selected by this
convention to meet the executive board
OF the mine workers for the purpose OF
drafting n constitution TO govern both
bodies.
Action on the resolution was deferred
until the arrival of two delegates from
the United Mine Workers of America,
who are expected to attend the con.
vcntion.
When the local unions of the West,
ern Federation OF Miners voted by a
referendum vote TO affiliate with tho
American Federation of Labor it is
claimed by the delegates that such "a
step was taken in the understanding
that a closer relation would exist there,
by between the federation and the
united mine workers. Several dele
gates urged that the cost Of at present
maintaining these bodies would be cut
In half, 1t is suggested that the West.
ern Federation Of Miners will become
under the proposed amalgamation the
metal mining district of the United
Mine Workers Of America.
After further routine business the CON
vention adjourned at . o'clock TO 10
o clock tomorrow morning.
