MILITANT LEADER MAY DIE
Mrs. Pankhurst Unable to Eat, Doc. tors Say She Is Liable to StarYe

London, June 20.-Mrs. Emmeile Pankhurst, much-imprisoned leader of militant suffragettes, is in a most precarous condition, according tc members of the w. s. P. U.. who have seen her in the nursing home where she is a patient
 They said that the attending physi. clans stated that Mrs. Pankhurst is suffering from valvular heart trouble induced by forced feeding. Her whole system is greatly run down from her hunger striking, and the doctors say that another jail experience would kill her. Her body is emaciated and she needs food, but can swallow only water. Mrs. Pankhurst starved vol. untarily so long that now she is in danger of starving to death, the phy sicians say.

Atlanta, Ga, June 20-Bishop w. A. Candler of the Methodist Episcopal church, South charges in a statement given out here that Andrew Carne-- gie's recently announced gift of $1.000.000 to Vanderbilt university, at Nashville, Tenn, is not donation, but shrewd attempt to get control of part of the university property"
 Carnegie is dangling money before the public with the purpose of in duencing litigation pending over the university" Bishop Candler charges further.
 Bishop Candler characterized MT. Carnegies offer of a donation to the university as an impudent proposal of an agnostic steelmonger"
 This loud-heralded gift" Bishop Candler's statement recites, "on close inspection of it's terms appears to be no gift at all, but a shrewd attempt to get control of a part of the property of Vanderbilt university in order to set up medical school fashioned ac. cording to the peculiar ideas of Mr Carnegie.
 Vanderbilt university belongs to the Methodist Episcopal church. South. The church's ownership hay ing been denied, suit was brought some time ago to settle the question, and the chancery court decided every point in the church's favor From that decision an appeal was taken and is now pending in the supreme court of Tennessee."
 Quotes carneeie's Letter.
 Bishop Candler quotes Mir. Carne- gie's letter, in which the latter states his objections to denominational con- trol of colleges and universities and imposes conditions on his donation consequent upon determination of the question of denominational control of the diversity Then he says:
 It appears also that the Episco palians see in this affair an effort to defeat the proposed medical depart ment of the university of the south If they are correct in their opinion, MT Carnegie is proposing at one blow to destroy the medical school of the Episcopalians and denature the med- cal schools of the Methodists and rise on the ruins of both a Carnegieized likeness"

Bill Now Is Complete

The only things left open in the Underwood bill are the income tax feature and the administrative sec tions. The free list was the last schedule to receive the stamp of ap- proval.
 It was decided by the committee not to impose a contervailing duty on meats and live stock, the duty on gloves was moderately increased and the rate on photographic films was materially lowered.
 A definite conclusion was reached that the perfected bill shall not be made public until after caucus action tonight.

unknown to the American people, yet Colonel Goethals
himself has said authorized statement, 1T be
said of him truhuly that the canal could not have been
built without him
There three locks at each end OF the canal. At
the Atlantic end the three Gatun locks rise above
another like stair steps to height of eghtytve feet;
the Pacific side two locks Mraiores lift ship
ffty-fve feet the level OF the artificial Mralores
Lake. and after the vessel has travesed this for mile
and half the single lock Pedro Miguel raises it the
remaining thirty feet to the level of Culeba Cut and
Gatun Lake the center of the canal.
Each of the six locks is made in duplicate, that
ship from the Pacific will not be held up until ship
from the Atlantic pass through the lock; and
the dimensions of the lock chambers Tin which the
sci is nclosed while the is lifting lowering it,
are the throughout the canal. The locks
thousand feet long and hundred and ten feet wide,
and the big Imperator would not be crowded for
space, if it should take notion the isthmus.
The concrete walls that make the lock cham
bers eighty -one feet high and from forty-five
to sixty feet wide at the bottom. These measure
ments, together with the cost, which in the
neghborhood of twenty-five million dollars for the
Gatun locks alone, give idea of the magnitude
of the engineering problem that faced the builders.
The steel gates of these locks are the biggest
gates in the world. Each gate is made in two
leaves, and each leaf weighs from three hundred &
and ninety to seven hundred and thirty tons
each. The total weight of the nnety-two leaves
in all the locks is sixty thousand tons. But the

mission and appointed another set OF then he
made the chairman chief engineer and Governor OF the
Canal Zone into an executive committee, and things
began to happen But in the middle of the year the chief
engineer quit the job and John F. Stevens hurried
into his shoes.
Now here is a curious fact The canal had become
ours in Nav, 1904, and went right to work it;
but it was not until June %, 1906, that knew what
kind of canal we were going to build In November,
1905 the question whether it should be lock canal
90 through at sea level referred another multitude
of counseors brought together from all the world
They finally reported in favor of level by vote OF
eight to ive but the new Canal Commission reported
in favor of locks and Congress voted with it. Then the
chief engineer knew exactly what his task was and he
went at it with VIM
Stevens served on the canal for twenty-one months.
He doube-tracked the Panama Railroad, increased the
EMPLOYEES from ninety-ve hundred to thirty thousand,
and made the dirt fly nightly. But the strain too
much for him. and he also quit, in April 1907. His
resignation led President Roosevelt another of those
decisive actions and he turned the canal to army
engineers designating Colonel Goethals chief engi
neer Henceforth there no more reslgnlng. The
army remained on the Job until it finished.
TT long story to trace the work year by year;
so let US to the three gigantic engineering tasks
upon the successful execution of which depended the
future of the waterway.
The first of these is the great dam at Gatun, which
has cost something like thirteen and onehal million

most wonderful fact about these towering monuments
OF steel is that they revove noiseessy and with the
simplicity OF turnstie, by electrical power, in less
than two minutes. This has been made possible by the
box form of their construction Instead of resting upon
the pivot which they revove their ponderous weight
supported mainly by the buoyancy of the water
that they float on its surface like loaded steamer

in May 1912, and the final test in September of
the present year when they swung aside let the tug

a mile and half long, and is over a hundred feet
high at the point where it spans the valley of the
Chagres; but 1t is much part of the landscape that
visitors often pass it without realizing that it is
artificial Into its construction went millions of cubic
wards of debris from Cuebra Cut and other millions
of silt hydrauicked of what is now C1atun Lake
The bigness of it be gagged by the fact that the
pounded waters of the Chages cover one hundred and
sxty-fve square miles, probably the largest artificial
lake IN the world And when the final test of the dam
showed 1t to be solid the everlasting hills it settled
for all time the question: What are we going to do with
the Chagres River?' The two men who settled are
Colonel William L. Siber division engineer, and Colo
mel H. F. Hodges who designed the dam and the locks

when men wise and otherwise
were discussing the type OF
canal that should be built,
one of the big questions was,
What are we going to do with
the Chagres River?n The
Chagres had unfortunately
chosen to run directly across
the Canal Zone, and during
the rainy season it rolled
down in mighty flood.
That question has been an
swered by the engineers IN a
way that makes US smile at
the remembrance of 1t; for
the Chagres River is today
the canal. When a ship en-
tiers the waterway from the
Atlantic it will be Chagres
water that lifts it through
the Gatun locks to the eighty
five-foot level; then the ship
will sail majestically along for
twenty-four miles on Gatun
Lake, but the lake is merely
Chagres water damned up.
Finally, when the vessel is
lowered through Pedro Miguel
and Nlirafores locks, it will
still be in Chagres water I'M
I'll it reaches sea level on the
Pacific side. Besides, the
electricity that tows the ship
into and out of the locks and
lights the beacons all the way
across the isthmus is manu-
featured by the Chagres, as
its surplus water dashes over
the spillway at Gatun. And
1t is the big dam at Gatun that
has harneSsed this dreaded
river and made it the motive
power of the canal.
The dam was begun in
1906, under Stevens, and fin
ished in 1918, under Goethals,
who built most of it. 1t is
