The history Of what he calls the
destruction" of the French idea OF the
canal our author tells in detail which
may be tedious to the casual reader, but
II Is 10y no means SO TO the reader who
remembers those times. For several
years the politics Of France revolyed
around the ahortive project. Across
whatever OF personal pride there may
be in this narration and across the
mists OF the translation also II does
clearly appear that NJ. Bunau- Varilla
never lost faith in the original French
project. nor omitted any opportunity
In America or in Europe to stimulate
its revival. In 1894 lie cndeavored to
interest Russia In the execution OF the
great work, representing It AS ueces-
sary complement to the transslberlan
railroad. He did succeed In warmly in
teresting NJ. dc White. then the Russian
Minister Of Finance. In fact, Russian
construction OF tho Panama Canal
would have been a logical consequence.
and by far the most important conse-
quence. Of the Franco Russian cal
lance" NJ. Bunau-Varilla took back
with him from Petersburg TO Paris the
assurance from tho Russian Minister Of
Finance that "his Majesty Is always
well disposed to hear anything which
may present advantages for France"
IL was an assurance most welcome to
the then Government of France in the
then condition of European politics. The

arisen on the ruins Of the old was, &C.

one OF his fellow passengers being the
NJ. Dingler to whose engineering skill
he chiefly attributed such success as
was attained IN the initial stage Of the
French Panama. He himself was put
In charge of the dredging at the Pacific
end OF the proposed canal. and to the re-
sponsibilitiea Of this position were not
long after added those Of experimenting
the operations ut the other end Of tho
canal. the Colon division. In 1885 lie
became the virtual and almost the nom-
inal chief engineer of the entire Panama
Canal. He had some interesting and IN
structive technical experiences. instruc-
tive mainly to other engineers, but he
had other and untechnical experiences
which were to DO OF even more value to
him in the future. One OF them was
the real terror Of the Isthmian climate,
which had been SO periodically pooh
poohed by De Lesseps; another was the
familiarity with 1sthmian politics, to
which was to be largely due the blood

SOME NEW BOOKS.
The story Of the pana ma Canal.

How could narrative Of the building
VI the Panama Canal, from almost the
neg1nning OF the futile operations Of
I)e Lesseps, throughout all tho phases
and ccrvolutions Of the failures and the
struggles which prepared the way for
tho evcntf,il triumph which We are
shortly to celebrate. almost down to the
date Of the eventual celebration, fail to
be Interesting? This is the question
raised. and laid. by Pdndmu. The Creu-
ton. Destruction and Resurrection by
PHILIPPE BuNAU-NARIILA Mcbride. Mast
and Company. The clear answer is
that such un account could not fail to
be Of an absorbing interest. The only
drawback is In the badness OF q trans
lation which almost always prevents
the reader from indulging himself with
tho Illusion that he il reading the
narrative In the words In which 1t was
originally written. The defect which
commonly mars, and sometimes comes
near to running. the translation is too
bald liberalism. The French personal
pronouns are most VIGOROUSLY abused.
"She." for example, Is sometimes "a
nation, sometimes u commission. and
at least once an error" whereas all
English readers are aware that Error"

for the movement Of discomfort upon the
