LANDsLIDES ALONG THE CANAL
AsCulebra Cut Nears End Movements
of Earth Begin.

The recent landslides now causing
trouble in the Culebra section OF the
Panama canal call attention to the ma
ture of the movements of earth that
have almost constantly hindered the
progress of the work on the canal
but have at no time proved an IN
surmountable task FOR our engineers
When the French under De Lesseps
commenced to bite their way into the
nine-mile Culebra cut more than twen-
ty-five years ago the greatest diff
Guilty they encountered was the Slid
ing of the surface clay off the slopes,
The French engineers, and later the
American, hoped that trouble from
this source would cease when the
excavation had been carried down to
the firmer underlying rock.
But much of this rock, consisting
of bituminous schists and grit is trav-
ersed by clayev filaments that make
il too unstable to hold the angle of
slope at which the canal is being cut
and lead to rapid dsintegration when
eXposed TO water or air. Consequent
ly, as the excavation has progressed
great masses of material acres in eX-
tent have moved downward.
The Cucuracha slide, which had
greatly troubled the French, was the
first to offer a serious obstacle to
our engineers. 1t is just south OF
Gold Hill, at a pot where the be Is
3r strata al rock incline westward
oward the canal, having been tilted
thus by the upward intrusion of the
mass of eruptive Grdesitis rock that
forms the chief lart of Gold Hill.
IN October, 1907, ITS rate of advance

TO support steam shovels, the muddy
mass was sluiced by water brought
from a high level until a way was

slide The first mention of such up
heavals is to be found in the report
of the canal commission for the year
ending June 80, 1908;
"At the new Culebra station sink
ing OF the ground surface west Of the
west slope of the cut was noticed and
a corresponding uplift of the bottom
of the cut took place. A similar ac-
ton of the bottom occurred in the
canal Just south of Gold Hill. In both
instances this upward movement OF
the bottom was stoppe d by remov
ing the material of the upper levels,
whereby the pressure was reduced
Colonel Gaillard, in charge of the
Culebra division, is authority for the
statement that the largest slide of this
type covers an area of seventy five
acres, which in the beginning involv-
ed the removal of about 100000
cubic yaris of material. "On one

was standing on a portion of the bot
tom of the cut when it rose six feet
in about five minutes. 1t moved so
smoothly and with so little jar as
to make the movement scarcely ap-
preciable, and it was my impression
at first that the steam shovel | was
observing was sinking and not that
was rising
Preventive measures consist In
flattening the slope of banks where
upheavals are expected by eXcavating
and removing the upper portions by
steam showels. The trouble caused
by these upheavals will doubtless be
mitigated by the flooding of Culebra
cut, but the slides that began recently
and are still continuing may result
in the postpon ement of the date set
for the letting in of the water. The
depth cf forty-five feet of water in
Culebra cut will be equivalent in
weight to about twenty feet of rock
so that the stress from the unbalanc-
ed weight of the banks will be reduc-
ed to what it was when the bottom ex-
cavation was at sixty feet above sea
level. But the flooding of the canal
may accelerate the rotting of some Of
the rock, and the chemical action OF
the water may partly neutralize the
beneficial effect of its weight
When the dixie at Gamboa is blown
up to allow the waters of Lake Ga
tun to enter Culebra cut, the big
dredge Corozal is to be brought into
the cut from the Pacific entrance to
work upon any upheavals that may
take place. Whatever slides occur
after the cut is flooded can be re
moved by floating dredges at about
one third of the present cost, which
is 80 cents cubic yard.--New York

This New Centenary Pictorial His
tory of Napoleon, the most amazing
and dramatic figure in history, fresh,
impartial view of his career 100 years
after his downfall, represents one of
the most ambitious and far-reaching
newspaper enterprises of all time. 1t
will be modern, up-to-date newspaper
story of the real Napoleon, told as
directly and simply as the report of
something that happened yesterday, by
James Morgan, who has Just returned
from a ooyooo-mile journey "In the
Path of Napoleon" the first biographer
of Napoleon to visit all the principal
backgrounds in his active life. Mr..
Morgan's articles, illustrated by many
new pictures, will form a brilliant BIZ

sketches of travel from Corsica to
Galilee, from Egypt to Russia, under
dozen flags and in three continents.
1t will be unique story of Napoleon's
rise from obscurity to fame, from
poverty to a throne, and his fall and
tragic exile, stranger than fiction and
unfolded like a novel. Begin it today.
