THE SUEZ AND
PHNHMX CHNHLS

The Suez canal is owned by stock
company, with shares of stock num-
bering 1921.
Since 1873 the British government
has been the owner of 1862 of these
shares, for wn,rh il paid $l9,Sjj,320.
Through its holding of these shares
the British government exercises
cotrolling interest in the Suez canal.
The canal cost about $l27,OOO,O0O, is
1903 miles long about IS feet deep, and
it takes II hours for vessels to pass
through it.
During the year 1910 the Suez canal
was traversed 10y 1888 vessels, with a
total net tonna e of l6,5Sl,S9S, and the
toll charges were $3.50 per net ton for
vessels with cargo, - cents per net
ton for vessels in ballast and $l.93 for
each passenger II years of age.
The total receipts of the canal COM
pany for the year amounted to SO
lGS.4OO; the costs of maintenance and
operation to $3,S57 400; payments for
fixed charges and in retiring capital
obligations aggregated $6,0I2,G02.
The cumpany's net profits We're
$l5,90S,419 permitting the payment
of dividend of 81 per cent on the
canal company's shares.
The outstanding capital obligations
amounted To $92, iSi,jii at the close of
the year 1910.
The Panama canal is owned by the
people of the United States
1t is estimated that it will cost when
completed, approximately $3i5,O0o,0OO.
1t will be "a miles long, IL feet deep
and vessels will be able to go through
il. from ocean To ocean, in II hours.
TO pay for this canal the United
States government has issued bonds to
the value of $S4.631,9S0, bearing inter-
est at the rate of per cent and $50
100000 i'm bonds bearing interest at the
rate of per cent.
The expenditures on account of the
canal in excess OF the money received
from sales of these bonds have been
paid from the cash in the United
States treasury.
\ traffic expert report made to
President Taft estimated that during
the year 1915 lO,j0OOoO net tons
would pass through The Panama
canal, of which amount the coast
wise trade Of the United States, now
free from tolls under existing law,
was estimated at l,l60,00O tons.
The rate of tolls as established by
President Taft is to be $l.2O per net
ton, this being ~ cents per ton less
than the Suez rate collected in the
British controlled canal.
our coastwise. trade being free, the
tolls To he collected from the other
tonagcs, as per this estimate, would
amount to about $ll.3OO,OO0.
The costs of maintenance and OPP
Grafton it was thought would not be
more than that at the Suez, say 81
100000 which would leave more than
$1,000, 600. or about per cent upon
the entire investment of our people.
No one that has studied the trade

FAMOUS OLD MEXICAN CITY
sightseers Look Upon Militia as One of
the Chief Points of Interest
in the Country.

Among the many ruined cities of
Mexico dating back to antiquity is
Mitlaj of unusual interest to the sight
seer. The name is a contraction or
corruption of the word Mictlan, mean
ing the place Of death" The modern
village and the ancient ruins occupy
the center of an arid plain or valley,
surrounded on all sides by equally
arid hills, on the highest summit
of which are the well-preserved re-
mains of a great fortress, whose
walls are of a rough construc-
ton and without ornament of any
kind. Nearly in the center of the
plain five great groups Of buildings
stand out completely exposed. Many
of them are now nearly shapeless
mounds and masses of ruins. Two
great groups, however, are in compar
atively perfect preservation. third
is incorporated with an old church
and a fourth, the great sacrincial
mound, is surmounted by the ruins o.
a very ancient church. The principa
buildings are of stone masonry.
