HAYES FOUND GUILTY
OF FALSE STATEMENT
Denoted Police Inspector Dis.
missed From the New
York Force.

NEW YORK, September 16.-Corne-
lius G. Hayes, the denoted police in
spector who was recently placed on
trial for making a statement alleged
to be false rejecting on Police Com
missioner Waldo. was found guilty OF
the charges today and dismissed from
the department. First Deputy Com
missioner Mckay, who presided at the
trial, announced his finding shortly
after noon.
The statement by Hayes which led to
his demotion from the rank of in
spector to captain and his suspension
from duty was made in the presence
Of four other inspectors at police
headquarters. and was to the effect
that Waldo had enjoined him from
raiding disorderly houses without ex-
press instructions.
Related to Rosenthal Murder.
Hayes thus declared himself not long
after the murder Of Herman Rosenthal,
the gambler, at a time when there were
inquiries afoot to determine what the
police were doing to better conditions
in the TenderlOin.
At the trial Hayes reiterated this
statement. and defended his course on
the grounds that he was carrying out
what he understood to be Mayor Gay
nor's policy of outward order and
decency."

CANAL OPEN IN 1918
Great Waterway to Be Ready
for Traffic in Fall.
STATEMENT IS OFFICIAL
Navy Department Ends All Doubt
as to Exact Time.
ATLANTIC FLEET TO COLON
Men Will Get Chance to Examine
Connecting Link Between
Oceans During Winter.

The Panama canal is to be opened to
traffic in the fall of 1913. This state
ment was made officially at the Navy
Department today, with an announce
ment that the Atlantic fleet would be
rendezvoused at Colon this winter be-
fore the water is turned in. The navy's 8
estimate is based upon the latest re-
ports from the army engineers
Secretary Meyer, after consulting with
the Isthmian canal commission, discov-
cred that construction work on the
canal had progressed SO far that unless
action was taken Immediately there
was probability that the men of the
fleet would have no opportunity to ex-
anime the connecting link between the
two oceans before it was in operation.
The visit Of the fleet will include rail-
road trips for the men throughout the
Canal Zone.
Cause of Speculation.
While there has been much specula :
ton and a number of prophecies con-
cerning the early opening of the canal.
the Navy Department was the first to
announce the surprising fact officially.
The date for the opening originally
was set for January /, 1915. and engi-
neers for some time had doubted IL
the engineering difficulties could be
overcome to permit completion Of the
work by that date.
A trip to the big canal and across
| the isthmus to the Pacific ocean during
the period of construction will be OF
great interest to the high-class men
who now compose the enlisted force
of the navy, and Secretary Meyer has
determined to reserve the necessary
| time from the winter maneuvers In
| the Caribbean to enable the sailormen
| to make that coveted trip.
Special Trains Probable.
| 1t is probable that special trains will
be provided by the authorities of the 18th
mus to transport the men to all points OF
interest along the route Of the canal.
This will be the last opportunity fol
