PRESIDENT SPENDS
DAY IN BALTIMORE
Took His Fancee to See Family of
His Brother, Joseph II.
Wilson.

washington, Oct. 1O.-Presiden,
Wilson and Mrs. Norman Gait. his
iancee, motored to Baltimore TODAY
to visit the Presidents brother
Joseph r.. Wilson, who had not met
the next mistress Of the White House
before. While there they attended
church and were guests of honor at a
family luncheon party.
Several hundred people in Balti-
more learned of the presence of the
couple and crowded about the church
and the apartment house in which
Joheph r. Wilson lives to catch a
glimpse of the President and his
Drlde-to-be. Because it was Sunday,
the applause Of Friday and Saturday
in New York and Philadelphia was
missing but the people voiced their
approval of the Presidents choice i'm
audible comments.
Mrs. Calf wore beautiful blue
taheta gown, black velvet hat trim
med with fur, champagne colored
gloves. and short face veil, and
smiled happily at the crowd. The
president, too, smiled continually.
On the third finger of her left hand
Mrs. Gait wore the diamond engage
ment ring given her by the President

GREATEST SLIDEIN
CANALS HISTORY
Ten Million Cubic Yards of Earth to
be Dredged Out Before Perma-
nent Channel is Secured.

Panama, Oct. 1O-A survey of the
side area in the Gaillard Cut shows
that probably 100000 cubic wards
OF earth must be dredged out before
permanent channel through the cut
Is possible. This is the conclusion
reached by the canal engineers who
concede there is now little hope of
opening the waterway much before
the first of the year. The present
rate of excavation is 100000 wards
month and at this rate il would
require 10 months to remove the
mass sliding into the canal.
The area of motion is roughly cal
culated to be in the neighborhood
OF 175 acres, which constitute tho
greatest slide area in the canals his
tory. 1t extends $500 feet along
both banks, with probably an aver
age of 1,5OO feet back of the center
line OF the canal prism.
Major General Goethals, governor
OF the canal zone, has not yet made
an official announcement concerning
the probability of opening a tempo
rary channel, but it is believed ship
ping interests have been given to I'M
derstand the nature of the situation
and 1t is probable that most of the
100 ships awaiting passage through
the canal will be ordered to their
destinations by other routes.

WRECK ON THE SOUTHERN.
Passenger Coaches Turn Over. n,
One Seriously Hurt.

Spartanburg, Oct. 10.-Special:
Passenger train No. 46, local between
Seneca and Charlotte. on the main
line OF the Southern Railway, was
wrecked at Mt. Zion siding, three
miles east Of this city. this morning
at 1880 O'Clock. 1t is said that the
wreck was caused by some defect
in the track. either a. broken angle
bar or a defective switch. Two
passenger coaches and the baggage
car turned over and were dragged
some distance, but miraculously no
one was injured beyond slight
scratches. The fact that the coaches
were OF modern steel construction

life. The wreck blocked the main
line on the Southern until 3:15
this afternoon. The coaches were
picked up shortly after 5 O'Clock.
The trainmen in charge of the wreck
ed train were: Conductor Rowland,
