mittee room in which Mr.. Adamson
|presides, and in which was formu-
lated the plan of action which, SO far
as the authority of the house extends,
destroys all free navigation at Pan
anna. Mr.. Carnegie appeared before
the committee to object to move
ment, organized by citizens of Keo-
kuk, to make use of the great water
power dam recently built there, as a
Mississippi river bridge. The pur-
pose Of the Keokuk people is to avoid
the tolls they now have to pay in
crossing the river on what is known
as the Carnegie bridge for the reason
that Mr.. Carnegie il largely interested
in It,
There has been expert engineering
evidence offered showing that the top
of the dam can be used without injury
to the structure, and the water power
company has thus far interposed no
objection. But Mr.. Carnegie is con-
sistent. Opposing the remission OF
tolls at Panama. he equally opposes
their remission at keotuk. He is op-
posed to any subterfuge which will
save the commerce of Keokuk from
paying to1is~on his bridge. This. we
repeat, is consistent. He is asking
the government to do nothing he will
not himself do. He would be incon-
sistent should he insist that the gov
eminent Slow commerce to cross a
waterway free, and not be willing to
do the same thing himself. He was
consistent But he has spoiled a

Three years ago two sets OF these
shippers got an idea from the Panama
canal II steam shovels could be used
in digging that canal, why could they
not be used to dig canals In this
field? They decided to see If there
was any reason, why not. Three
standard shovels were ordered and
they were set up IN the spring or

Two OF the shovels in the field are
twins and are the largest steam shoy-
els in the world. The first one was
brought here two years ago anS the
second soon followed. The price or

shovels. the ordinary shovel used in
Panama, appears almost as a tug
alongside of an ocean liner.
Here are some facts about one OF
the big miners: 1t has a boom 80
feet long, and the dipper handle is
So feet long. The dipper will take up
five cubic yards of earth and the ma
chine will life the dipper and empty
it sixty-two feet above the level OF
the two railroad tracks upon which
the shovel runs. The shovel will cur
a ditch 100 feet wide and it will stand
on It's tracks and cut down twenty
four feet. Three separate sets Of en-
gines furnish the power, and by way
of comparison it might be said that
the Panama shovels have 65-foot
bcoms and dippers with capacity
of three and a half yards.
