PANAMA TRAFFIC..

Without reference to the merits or de-
merits of any particular company which
has been or may be organized for the
purpose. It may be said unhesitatingy
that there ought to be through line Of
steamships between Atlantic and Pacific
ports by way of Panama. Indeed, there
ought TO be several such lines. IL Is
only in that way that the full benefit #
the canal can he realized. Its great
value will be in enabling cargoes to be
sent through without breaking bulk or
transshipment: and, of course, they can
be- sent through In that way only on
through steamers. 1t is also automatic
that since we have undertaken to build
the canal we ought to get the greatest
possible advantage out Of it. We are not
building il simply for an ornament OF the
isthmian landscape or for the profit OF
other nations.
Opposition to through traffic, while not
illegal, would he unpatriotic. We be-
lieye that in the long run II would also
be Improbable. We have no doubt that
such traffic would compete with the rail
roads. and would either compel them to
reduce some rates or deprive them If
some patronage. That 1t would prove
disastrous to the railroads. or even i'm
pair their general prosperity, we do not
believe Experience is against such a
theory The law Is that increase Of IA
cilities increases patronage. The OPEN
ing Of the Panama line will enormously
stimulate commerce between the two
coasts. There are certain classes Of traf-
nc which can be carried by steamships
through the canal more advantageousy
than by railroads, and there are other
classes which can better be carried by
the railroads. Both kinds of traffic will
increase in volume as facilities for
handling lt ere improved.
There is ground for objection TO the
establishment Of through line of steam
ers by the government. and the adoption
Of such plan would be regarded with
regret. Yet it is not inconceivable that
+ in some contingency it might be neces-
sary for the adequate utilization Of the
canal. 1t would be folly to build the
canal and then fail TO make use Of it.

Sir: Could you not help to find some
good Samaritan who has the money anu
the will to give to that most benehceht
cause-failing coDvalescents? Many OF us
who do clinical work In dispensar'es
constantly meet with men who have been
recently discharged from the hospital
wards. They are not sick enough TO go
10 bed or to be confined to the bed. nor
yet well enough to work. They are eager
and willing to work II they had the
strength. The period OF their convalescence
is usually six to eight weeks. AS one
remarked to me recently. they are or no
use to themselves or any one else.
What they need is small weekly sum
to tide them over in their difficulties.

Mr.. BAKER AND THE MONEY
TPTCT"


The proof Mr. Bernard \. Baker offers
of the existence of money trust Is
not impressive. He failed to raise the
capital to carry ont his project Of oper-
ating a line Of steamships through the
Panama Canal. and he alleges that his
failure was due to the opposition of the
transcontinental railroads and their in
1uence in banking circles. But what
proof IS there that he did not fail for
the reasons given by the bankers in New
York. namely. that financiers found his
scheme financially unattractive?
To support his contention that he was
blocked through the control Of the
sources of capital by interests hostile
to him there is only his allegation that
several bankers and one shipbuildlng
company told him that they were attili-
ated In q business way with one or an
other Of the transcontinental railways
The money trust" was frank If it ex-
planned to him just why he could not have
the capital he was seeking. And it was
natural that he should find certain Of
the big bond dealers interested in GER
tain of the important railways, even to
the extent that if they really regarded
Mr.. Bakers proposed rivalry seriously
they would decline TO cooperate with
him But nothing in this story Of Mr..
Bakers and nothing in the similar
stories Of much less important promot-
ers who have failed TO obtain capital
proves that q few Wall Street houses
control the capital supply of the entire
country and can prevent an enterprise
making strong appeal TO investors
from obtaining the means for its devel-
opment That is what the accusation
that there is money trust" means.
