PANAMA CANAL
CLOSED INDEFINITELY
Goethals Withdraws Tentative Date
of Reopening.

Panama, Oct. 12.-All predic
lions with regard to the probable
date for the reopening of the Pana.
ma canal, even with a temporary
channel, were set at naught yester.
day by Maj. Gen. G. W. Cocktails
governor general of the Panama
canal zone, who said that conditions
were such that it was impossible to
set any definite date.
General Goethals said the move
ment of earth from both banks in
to the canal was so rapid during the
last week that the dredging float
was unable to make any gain
against it. He declared that, there
fore, he would withdraw even the
tentative reopening date, Nov. 1.
General Goethals added that the
dredging would be prosecuted con-
tinuously with the intention of re-
moving the source of the trouble.
No effort would be made to drive
a temporary channel, he
said. The statement was made that
shipping interests would be inform
ed that they must make arrange
ments to disregard the Panama can
al for their vessels until the situa-
ton in the Gaillard cut improves.

In a number of instances the Jews
