a lower rate OF - interest and which
idea is very similar to the one ad-
vanced by President Taft following
the German and French system of
guaranteed farm loans.
Matters affecting better road legis-

state money for the purpose Of build

quite uniformly favored.
There appeared to be some opposi-

the public highways under the super

Means a Sacrifice

Washington, Dec. 26.-It was UNI
derstood before Taft left Washington
on his visit to Panama that the only
element of uncertainty in the appoint
ment of Colonel Goethals to be COVER
nor of the canal zone was to consider
the official himself. The salary CT the
new officer is $4,000 less than the COM
pensation he is now receiving as head
of the canal commissioners. So anx-
ious is Gothals to crown his work of
canal construction with the establish
ment of permanent government,
which is to operate the great water
way and look after a small army OF
employees, that it is understood he is
prepared to make the sacrifice. Once
this is accomplished and the canal i
in smooth operation, it is known Goe-
thals desires to be relieved of further
duty on the isthmus

Big Loss Of Water

The magnitude of the great lake at
Gatun, on the Panama canal, which is
now beginning to fill up behind the
Gatun dam is indicated by figures
which have recently been compiled by
the engineers on the unavoidable daily
loss of water in the lake due to leak
age at gates and locks, seepage throug
the lake bottom. evaporation, and the
operation of the hydroelectric plant to
obtain poower and light. The daily
loss, says the January Popular Me-
chanics, will amount to 1,059, 42O,0
gallons, or about al 10000 cubic feet
of water. The evaporation from the
Lake is placed at 1000 cubic feet a sec
Ond; the leakage at 275 cubic feet; the
seepage ats cubic feet, and the
amount used by the hydroelectric
plant at 275 cubic feet.
