"Shoring of" OF the precipitous noun

The peculiar geological formation OF
the Panamanian mountains makes this
feat difficult. Instead Of firm rocks or
sandy subsoil, interlaced by heavy for

OF Panama are shelving hills Of red ANA

The slides arc not an avalanche of
rock and earth from the top of the
mountain peaks. but movement from
below As the base Of the slanting cuts
weaken through seepagc OF rains and
water in the canal. the oarth softens
and is pressed. downward and outward
into the canal channel by the heavier
and more composite masses above.
The slide movement occurs compare
lively slowly. IL Is detected by en-
croachments from the base of the cliffs
Sometimes the movement is so speedy
that dredges and tracks are covered
Generally the earth at the base slowly
molHits and is pushed until IL encroaches
into the channel.
When the upper part of the hills are
cut away to such an angle that the
pressure upon the earth beneath is re-
moved. the slides viii stop. The recent
slides were expected.

Southern Pacific Leads, Asking
Permission to Reduce Its
coaSt-to coast Rates

War is on between the Southern
Pacific railroad system and San Fran
esco-New York steamship lines oper-
ating via the Panama Canal. as re-
suit Of the Southern Pacific's recent
application to the Interstate Com
merce Commission for permission to
reduce its water-andFail rates to a
point where it may compete for a
share of the through traffic from the
Atlantic to the Pacific seaboard.
Hearings before the commission in
New York. according to tae New York
Journal of Commerce, have given
both sides a chance to present their
arguments before Examiner Thurtell
of the commission.
The railroad had the first inning
September / in the metropolis, when
Louis j. Spence. director of traffic
for the Southern Pacific, appeared as
first witness, testifying in support OF
his company's application for permits
sion to lower the rail-and-water rates
OF the Sunset-Gulf system, better
known as the Morgan line.
That the Southern Pacific officials
have become alarmed at the serious
depletion of the Morgan lines traffic
between New York and rs Pacific
coast terminals was stated By the
witness, who said the company has
sustained heavy losses sof revenue
since the through Panama shipping
lines have been In operation.
Mr.. Spence placed in evidence a
list showing 29Sgroups Of commodi-
ties on which the traffic losses to the
rail-and-water line have already be-
come acute. He asserted the Morgan
line, IN the fiscal year ending June 30,
1915, had suffered a decrease in west
bound trafffc, IN these 20 groups, of
more than 10000 tons, compared with
the volume 1t carried In the year pre-
ceding the Panama Canals opening.
Recalls Dearborn Testimony
Relative to profits now being earned
by coast to-coast lines operating via
Panama, the witness recalled some
testimony given by d. s. Dearborn.
Dresident Of the American-Hawaiian
steamship Company, at q recent con-
gFessional inquiry during which Dear
born asserted that the outlook for his
company before the canal was open
ed was excellent, and that he was con-
fident, BY adding more ships, that no
less than $50, goo tons Of freight could
be diverted from the rail lines to the
all-Water routes.
THAT the effect on the public Of the
proposed rates. ny the Morgan line
would be actually, to insure to ship
pers on the Atlantic and Pacific sea-
boards the. benefit Of another COM

RAILROADS BEGIN Fight ON
PANAMA CANAL STEAMERLINES

Spence. He pointed out that canal
steamship lines are not subject to
federal regulation. and can thus prac-
ticaIiy do as they please with their
rates. - .s- 80. ~
Two days later. September 3, the
Panama Canal steamship lines were
given their opportunity for argument
against the proposed Southern Pacific
competitive rates, II. d. Hamilton,
general freight agent Of the Luck
enbach Steamship Company. took the
witness stand and declared the amount
of freight developed on the Atlantic
seaboard for transportation via the
all-water lines through the Panama
canal for Pacific terminals IN the first
year of the waterways operation has
steamship line managers.
Hamilton denied that the CONNIE.
dities on which the Southern Pacific
claims it has already lost serious
amount of traffic and revenues
through the competition OF the sea
lines have formed the principal part
Of the water carriers, traffic.
Increase Of 200 Per Gent.
The witness asserted that the less
than-carload freight sent from coast
to coast via the Luckenbach boats,
although IL has Increased approx
mately 200 per cent in the last fiscal
year. includes none Of the comm0di-
ties listed in the % groups on which
the Southern Pacific claims it must
make lower rates In order 20 compete
successfully with the aIl-water lines.
IL the commission permits the rail-
road company to lower its rates to
the so-called competitive point with
those charged by the canal lines, the
ship lines may expect to lose q large
proportion Of the traffic in the so-
called heavy freight commodities,
stated the witness.
Hamilton then went on to add that
this condition will make 1t practically
unsafe for the lines to send their ges-s
sells through the canal. Tending to
show that the operation Of steamers
via the Panama route Is not such q
gold mine as Is generally assumed,
Hamilton reviewed the experiences Of
some of the lines which attempted to
engage IN that trade Immediately after
the waterway was opened.
He recited the story. .of the Emery
Steamship Company OF Boston, which
after sending few vessels with part
loads through the isthmiis. withdrew
within q, period Of fiye months. He
also said that the West Coast Naviga-
ton Company, which has the steam
Iers George Hawley and Edison Light
under control, has been sending its
steamers through the canal with half
careoes. The witness declared ship
pefs who use canal lines have heavier
costs than rail shippers. because they
must provide heavier shipping cases,
and also pay wharf and warehouse
charges.
