 ON PANAMA CANAL

up for work this morning, the balance
about seventy, failing to put in an

refused to go to work last night.
The officers OF the mining company
are not disposed to take for publca'
ton and appear to be rather in the
dark as to justwhat the men are
kicking about. but the general report
is the might SHIFT claim If they work
only five hours Saturday might they
should be paid for eight hours. There
is also a report that too much liquor
INDUCED in by some of the men lately
has caused more or less dissatisfac-
ton. The men are all foreigners and
it is difficult to get a clear statement
from them.

not be confirmed. The authorities
will prevent my disturbance at the
