Legislature Adopted Measure Pro.
viuing for a Virginia Debt Com
mission for Adjustment.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Feb. o.
The adoption by both branches Of
the Legislature Of a resolution Great
ing the Virginia debt commission 10

pairing for a final adjustment OF the
debt differences between the old and
new states.
The resolution provides that the

the legislature. The commission,
however, win not be named by Gov.

on March 3. While the resolution
does not provide that the incoming
governor shall make the appoint
ment. Governor Glasscock has said
he would not appoint a commission
whose duty it would be to report to
his successor.
Many conferences were necessary
between the two legislative branch
es before a resolution was agreed
upon. The senate would not agree
TO the one Delegate Hall of the house
had offered and the house would not
agrea TO the one offered by Senator
MacCorkle. The resolution adopted
was the result of several conferences
between the two branches. The on
ference finally agreed on a substi
tuted resolution prepared by Dele
gate Wetzel, of Jefferson county,
which proposed eleven members for
the commission and several other
provisions which were not contain.
ed in either of the other resolutions.
The resolution adopted is as fol.

Virginia instituted a suit in the su.
preme court of the United States
against the state of West Virginia,
to have the state of West Virginia's

OPENING IN DOUBT
Builder Of Canal Says Slides May
Delay Completion.
Slides Are Now Greatest Difficulty
Hydraulic DreSges Deal
With Problem Successfully.

Washington, D. C.-No definite date
for the official opening of the Panama
canal is set in the annual report of
Colonel George Goethals, chairman and
chief engineer Of the Canal Commits
sion, which has just been submitted to
Secretary Garrison. Neither is there
any prediction of when ships may first
pass from ocean to ocean. The first
day of the canals actual operation
still depends upon the treacherous
slides of Culebra cut and how fast the
dredges can keep the channels open.
1t has been the general belief that
the effect of the water in the cut
would tend to retard slides and exper-
fence below the Gatun locks fully just
ifies this belief" said Colonel Goeth-
ais. "On the other hand the geologist
is of the opinion that the water may
to some extent develop new slides.
Again much ado was made in 1909
over the seamy character of rock on
the isthmus, through which water
flows quite rapidly, IN consequence of
which the question was raised that the
lake might leak out through seams and
crevices.
eff these things are liable to occur,
the sooner the better, if the official
opening of the canal is to occur jan
uary l, 1915; for if water were not
admitted this fall, but were deferred
until May l, 1914, the full height
could not be reached until October,
1914, leaving little time for the deter
mination of these questions.
1.-THE present plans, therefore, are
based on the blowing up of Gamboa
dixie on October 10, its removal by
dredges Immediately thereafter, the
transfer of two suction dredges and
ladder dredge to the Cucarachs
slide, the small dipper dredges to
work on the other slides until the full
width of the channel is attained, and
the passage of vessels through the
canal as soon as channels of full depth
and of sufficient width have been Sc
cured.
Before boats can be passed it will
be necessary to remove the Gambos
dixie by dredges and TO remove tn,
slides as already outlined. The pas
sage of commercial vessels is depend
ent, therefore, on the time when prop
err channels can be dredged through
the slides; should additional ones oc
cur, they will necessarily advance tn
date when this can be accomplished. :"
