Keep on Dredging Till the Isthmus
Slides Cease-Tolls to Be
Returned.

Washington, Oct. S.-That the govern.
ment is taking serious view OF the
slide situation in the Panama canal was
indicated yesterday by the fact that the
eth infantry, about to sail from Gal
weston on the Buford for the Philippines
via the canal, was ordered TO disembark
and go into camp until the waterway is
opened.
1t was given out at the war depart
ment that the tolls will doubtless be
turned back to vessels which are being
held up at the entrances of the canal by
reason OF the slides. Special legislation
viii be required TO restore money al
ready turned into the treasury general
fund.
Announcement that General Goethals
has withdrawn his resignation, which
was to have taken effect Nov. |, also is
regarded as Indicative of the seriousness
of the situation. Experts say there is
nothing TO do but TO keep on dredging
in the hope that the slides will cease.

Conditions At Vera Cruz
Are Now Good-Train
Wrecked

Washington, d. c., Oct. Secretary
Lansing conferred yesterday on the Mex
lean situation with John R. Silliman,
the state departments special represent
tative at Vera Cruz, and with Ambas.
sador Naon of Argentina, preliminary
here next Saturday. Later the sec
here next SaSturday. Later the Sec
rotary said he had no announcement to
make, and that Saturdays meeting
would take place as planned, and it
would then be decided whether further
meetings would be necessary. Mr.. Sill
liman went to the White House from
the state department and arranged to
see the president later in the week He
is here at his own suggestion to report
on the situation in Vera Cruz.
Conditions at Vera Cruz Mr., Silliman
said were much better than supposed
in the United States, for the city,
swelled to twice its ordinary population
by the presence of the Carranza govern
ment, was improving and able to i'm
port necessities. The Carranza move
pent was unified, he said, and he be-
lieved General Carranza sincere in his
promise of carrying out the plan of
Guadalupe. Reports from Mexico City,
he admitted, were conflicting, but it was
believed that conditions were improving.
Carranza's great superiority in numbers,
Mr.. Silliman thought, would make it
possible for him to subdue Zapata raid
ers, and the fact that only small part
of the Vera Cruz Mexico CStv railway
lay exposed to the raids would make it
comparatively easy to assure regular
service soon.
Mr.. Silliman said he was under orders
to remain at their disposition of the sec
rotary of state for the present and would
confer with him frequently. He expects
to return TO Vera Cruz, where he left
Mrs. Silliman.
