WATERS OF PACIFIC
JOINED At PANAMA
WITH ATLANT|C's
Pres Wilson at Washington
Presses Button That Sets
off Dynamite and Removes
Barrier Between Oceans.

PANAMA, Oct 1O.-The Panama
canal is a reality.
The waIers of the Atlantic met
those of the Pacific in the greatest of
man made waterways Friday when
Cucharacha slide. or Gamboa dixie as
it also was known. the last obstruc
ton separating the waters of the
worlds two greatest seas, was blown
up.
Pres. Wilson. in Washington,
touched the button which set off the
explosion.
There was a rumble as of giant
earthquake. a roar like the salvO of
thousand pieces of artillery and
torrent Of dirt and rock as 40 tons of
dynamite was exploded.
The obstruction of the slide allow
ed the waters of the Atlantic and pa
cific to iningle in a constructed ditch
for the first time in history.
Cheer Historic Event.
The rush of waters which followed
the bombarGment of natures ram
part mingled with the cheers that
arose from L. S. officers, canal work
men an dsight-seers who were sta
men and sight seers, who were sta
Among those who saw this epoch
making event I'm the history of the
$4,000 canal were former Rep.
Nicholas I4ongworth, Mrs. Alice
Roosevelt Longworth and Philip
Bunau-VariIla, chief engineer of the
first canal company, who was the
guest of Col. GOethals.
The explosion was one of the final
acts in the actual construction of the
mighty waterway.
One thousand holes had been drill
ed in the dixie and in each hole from
so to 100 pounds of dynamite had
been placed. 1t was the largest blast
set off in connection with the canal
work. The explosion was set with
electricity.
Col. Goethals the u. S. army en-
gineer who has had charge of the
construction of the canal made final
inspection Of the arrangements be-
for the electric wires, arranged as a
means of exploding the dynamite,
were in position.
Immediately after the explosion
fourteen vessels of the Atlantic
dredging fleet. which had been ly-
ing at Gatun lock, started for the
scene to complete the job of cleaning
out the canal bed. The engineers
had figured that considerable dredg-
ing would be necessary at the point
where the dixie had stood.
Miraflores lake on the Pacific side
and Culebra cut have been filing
rapidly from the inflow through the
discharge pipes.
Open BY January 4.
BY Nov. I boats will probably be
passing to and fro in the canal, and
by the first of the year there will be
a sort of traffic in the big ditch, al
though II will not be opened for pub
lie service.
When the canal is actually COM
pleted 1t will be protected BY a Pan
anna canal fleet of % powerful
dreadnoughts The Oregon will lead
a procession of battleships through
the canal as soon as it is opened.

Heated Rivalry Developing For

That the citizen party is slipping"
badly and that the republicans are
growing steadily stronger and may
run in second place is one of the most
interesting bits of political speculation
in circulation on the streets.
Few member of the republican, cit
lien or bull moose parties are seriously
claiming any chance of victory, as it
has come to be pretty generally &C
cepted that Controller Joyce will be
elected in November by a wide mar

velOped for second place.

The heavy registration also carried
comfort to the republicans who ex-

and issuing seething statements
about the citizen and democratic
tickets.
They have announced a meeting to-
night at the MuesSel school with q. A.
Johnson, candidate for council, as the
