To Feel the Pulse

To Feel the Pulse { - His idea;a as explained today, is that his supporters return to their homes and learn the sentiment. A month or six weeks later should con. diIons warrant his leaders from dis, terent parts or the country will as- semble and determine whether there exists sufficiently widespread sentl- ment to justify the creation Of a new party, if affirmative, a national con ventron will be. held.
 Roosevelt said tonight he would ad. here 10 the course he had mapped out, regardless of what Roosevelt deIe- gates in the convention would decide. He has taken position apart from the present struggle, with the idea that as long as 7> delegates whom he says are his are not seated. he can not ne influenced by any act of the national convention if the bulk uC The delegates choose to follow the course h5 expects. he will preserve 6 the present organization ot his forces.
 I only a handful on the final count decide tO stand with him, his dccis- ion will not be influenced
 ROoseyelt's statement today regard ing his position was hat he had defi- nitely stated his intentions ami there could be no change for them.

CANAL WILL OPEN IN
THIRTEEN.MONTHS
Panama Commission Revises Estimates, Names October
IS, 1913, for Passage of First Boat and
Sends Report to President Taft

In thirteen months a vessel will go
from The Atlantic to the Pacific ocean
through the Panama Canal. according
to new, revised estimates made public
today at the Panama Canal Commits
sion. october 15. 19l3 is the tentative
date set for the passage of the first
vessel through the canal. The Christ
ening" will be done by a naval vessel.
President Taft has been advised Of the
latest estimates of Colonel Goethals, in
charge OF canal construction work. The
Presidents approval Of the new canals
crcning program is awaited.
Formal opening Of the canal will take
place January I, 1915. It is announced.
Commercial vessels will be given it's
unrestricted use in December, 1914.
To Cost Less.
That the canal will be completed con-
siderably below the estimated cost OF
S4O0. 900, 900 Is reported by Colonel Goe-
thals. 1t may run as low as sS75,ooo 900.
About another million will be saved, II
y declared. in bond interest charges.
The estimated cost of the canal when
completed is between 1915. 100000 and
s4oO, 900, 900. The total amount expend-
ed up to today is s2S3, $4,000. The Pam
anna canal law authorized the issuance
of bonds aggregating sS75.OOO, 900. Ow-
ing to the excellent condition of Uncle
Sans finances only about S13S, ZOO, 900
worth of bonds have been sold, the rest
having been expended out of the gen.
eSal fund of the Treasury. The work.
ing balance in the Treasury is today
about $50, 900, and it is being freely
predicted that the canal will be built
without further issue of bonds In this
case some hundreds of thousands Of
dollars which would have been expend-
ed in interest and premiums will have
been saved to the Government.
Tentative Date,
Although reluctant to predict for pub
lie announcement anv definite date for
the opening. officials here privately. ad-
NIT that October 10. 1918, Is the tentative
date fixed for passage of the first YES
sci through the canal. They think 1t
barely possible that a vessel may be
sent on a trial trip even a few DAYS
sooner. The first vessel to go through
will be some navy ship. probably one OF
the smaller gunboats.
Opening Of the canal for general COM
mercial purposes will occur during De-
cember, 1914, 1t is stated. Numerous
tests of locks and gates will be had
before large commercial vessels and
battleships are permitted to go through.

navies OF the world will be invited to

MANY OYSTERS
FROM POTOMAC
ARE POLLUTED
Government Experts Report
on Conditions in
River.

All oyster beds in the Potomac river
above Blackstone's Island. the main
source Of the city supply, are polluted.
Washington furnishes one OF the main
sources Of this pollution of one of it's
chief sources of food supply. Typhoid
germs come right back in the oysters.
1t is suggested and recommended by
the experts of the Department of Agri-
culture who have Investigated condi-
tions for nearly a year, that Washing
ton. and all neighboring cities. towns.
hamlets. and Individual farms purify
their sewage before dumping II into the
river.
1t ls recommended that all exereta
from typhoid patients be kept from the
city sewers. as this pollution goes to
the oyster beds.
F, Oystermen whose beds are polluted
are asked to replant each harvest in
clean waters for at least a month All
oysters should be well cooked
These are the findings and recommen-
dations Of a corps OF Investigators of
the Bureau of Chemistry Of the Depart
ment OF Agriculture, who have made a
seven months probe of the source Of
pollution OF the Potomac river oyster
beds.
The Investigations were made and the
field work done by DR.. c. w. Stiles, jr,
chief OF the division of archaeological
chemistry. Drs. Bigelow and Doolittle,
of the Pure Food Board, analyZed and
passed upon the reports. They were
approved by Acting Secretary of Agri-
culture Willet NJ. Hays today.
One OF the features of the investiga-
ton was the overthrowing OF the old
theory that running waters purified
The Washington times., 1912-09-19

themselves. II was found that pol
luted sewage containing typhoid germs
still contained the live and active germs
and the pollution when they reached
the oyster beds below Upper Cedar
Point.
There are an average of 800 cases OF
typhoid yearly in the District, accord
Ing to the figures worked out by the in
vestigators, and these 600 cases furnish
sufficient sewage pollution to send the
typhoid germs right back to the city
In oysters harvested forty miles down
stream.
1t is suggested that all sewage from
typhoid patients be held from the
sewers and purified with fire or chem
icals before being disposed of. This. 1t
is believed by the investigators. would
abate one serious source of pollution.
No pollution of the beds below Black
stones Island, near the mouth of the
river, was found. except In isolated
local cases. such as pollution from the
home of an oysterman.
The oyster beds run out at Upper
Cedar Point owing to the lack of salt
water. and no pollution of the few
SyS5s. above ,o this hi ROn, is found This
there the river has fairly rapid flow.
1t Is the theory OF the Investigators
that pollution and germs carried down
the river gravitate and move back and
forth where the river broadens and the
only material movement of the waters
is furnished by the tides. II is this area
that IL polluted. 1t extends from Upper
Cedar Point to Blackistone's Island, a
distance of more than thirty miles on
the widest portion OF the river, and
where the Potomac oyster industry is
centered. Practically all oysters from
these beds go to Washington and Alex
andria
During the last two years food in
spcctors of the Department of Agrucul
ture have at frequent intervals obtained
samples Of oysters from local dealers
in Washington. which upon examina-
ton were found to be grossly polluted
and unit 10 food, resulting in seizure
and condemnation of the product.
Officers OF the department also inves-
tigated numerous cases of typhoid and
traced them to the eating of raw oys-
ters. The river II was found, carries
considerable load OF organic pollution
from communities above Washington.
Oystermen and Washington dealers
have been awaiting The department in

declare that a big industry is at stake
and that It will be ruined by frequent
seizures and stoppage of the normal

an elaborate series OF ceremonies. The
observation-disclosures he NAV be at that
time-is also expected to attend. All
United States vessels will be mobllized
there.
Slide Causes Delay.
The total amount of excavation work
to complete the canal Is, according to
the figures announced by the Isthmian
Commission today, about i2.134, ,COJ
yards. A. recent increase of more than
100000 yards In the estimates was
caused by big slides and changes in
the Obispo division. The amount of
excavation completed up to September 10
was 21S,Oo0,000 cubic yards, leaving ap-
proximately 24,OO0,000 yards still to be
dug. The average rate OF excavation
per month is now about 100000 cubic
yards. this figure being regarded by
officials as a conservative estimate.
At the present rate OF progress all the
digging should have been completed be-
fore September Is, 1913. AS the building
of locks and dams is not altogether de-
pendent on the excavation work, and
the excavation work not at all de-
pendent or the concrete work. all the diff
ferent phases of the construction will go
forward to completion irrespective of
any delay that may occur in any branch
project.
The big dam. locks, and spillway
projects show stages of completion
varying from 75 to % per cent. 1t Is
estimata that the Gatun locks will re-
quire ab1ut 1000 900 cubic yards OF con-
cpte work. UP to September Is we'll
over 1900, 900 cubic yards have been
put In place. The concrete york Of the
Pedro Miguel locks Is nearly 95 pc! cent
completed that of the Mirafores locks
InOrVa than g2 Der cent. the rSatun
spillway will probably be completed
within another month. Other engineer
ing features show an equally advanced
stage toward completion.
