Panama Can Handle Traffic
for Several Decades.

Washington.-Surveys conducted Dy
the War department may postpone
construction of a secOnds canal con-
Meeting the Atlantic for several
decades If not until the end of the
century.
Scientific inquiries have disclosed.
according to reports submitted to
Washington, that the growth Of traffic
will not necessitate any addition TO
the present inter-oceanic canal facili-
ties until 1850 at the earliest. The
consensus expressed in official conclu-
sions was that when added lockage
facilities are needed. third series of
locks should be added to the Panama
canal before work is begun on a Sec
ond canal
No Need for Many Years.
The findings reached by the inter
oceanic canal board headed by Col.
Ernest Graves of the United States
army and the engineers for the Pana-
ma canal indicate that the present
capacity of the Panama canal will
suffice until 1870 and that with addi-
tional locks the canal would not reach
capacity for possibly 100 years. To
build this thirG set of locks would
cost S140,0OO,OO0 while construction
of the proposed canal through Nicara-
qua would cost more than $700O00.OOO.
The traffic through the canal today
runs around 3O.OOO.OO0 tons annually.
The present tonnage capacity of the
canal is set at 7O.OOO,OOO. With a
third set of locks the capacity would
be 140.O00.0O0 On the basis of Pan
anna canal estimates that tonnage will
not increase faster than 100000 tons
year, 1t is estimated that 100 years
would elaspe before the canal would
reach capacity. The inter-oceanic
board said the proposed Nicaraguan
canal would increase the traffic tapac-
ity through Central America by S0,-
100000 TONS
Defense Another Matter.
Notwithstanding the array of traffic
statistics lined up by the inter-Oceanic
board and the canal engineers, the
possibility exists that other factors
rather than cargo capacity may die
tate an earlier start on new Mica
raguan canal than now seems prob
able. These include the advantages a
second canal would give to national
defense and the greater assurance two
canals would give of uninterrupted
waterway passage of commercial ships

delight"
The willy colonel knew, of course,
that my wounded arm would take from
me at least one-haf of my efficiency
as a swordsman, and acting as usual
upon impulse, had given no thought
to my injury, or to anything, in fact,
except my wild desire to kill him.
IF you do not know the way to the
prison." he inquired, ''this young lieu
tenant brother of the Senorita-"
as entirely out of your reach, Senior,
which leaves the Senorita free to act
as the dictates of her heart shall in
dicate."
Now she ran into my arms. Loren,
my own, you should not have done it.
He will make you pay. All, dear
heart, it is noble thing for you to
do, yet your life-Your arm, dear
heart, you cannot handle sword with
a wounded arm"
l smiled upon her confidently. my
arm is WE'LL"
"The Senorita then, shall witness a
duel" said PM, who, during our
"aside," had written a note. He
thrust his head out of window and
emitted shrill whistle, whereupon a
sergeant and squad of twelve SOL
diers marched into the room.
The colonel proffered this note to
the subofficer. THAT, sergeant, is an
order for the execution of Major
Garde, who stands before you. If,
after our duel, the major is still alive,
he is to be taken under guard to the
calabozo, where, as early tomorrow
morning as light may permit, he will
be shot"
Dulce chung to me, sobbing softly.
"This note explains to the command
ing officer of the prison that Major
Garde has permitted-aye, aided-a
Spanish prisoner, Lieut.. Polito Lamar
tina, to escape; prisoner that l, COM
mandant of Valencia, gave into his
keeping" PM turned to me. Have
spoken truth, Senor?"
Exactly, my colonel; could not
have expressed it better myself"

"On his knees" I said. laughing, ION

PM leaped to his feet, black anger
written large on his face. Forgetting
the presence of the Senorita, he rasped
a potent oath.
'Oh, my colonel, l would apologize
for thee!''
"Give yourself no trouble, major,
will make my own apologies. If
should order you to report yourself
under arrest to the officer of the
calabozo-'
Il would be compelled to refuse

SECOND CANAL WILL NOT

that construction of the canal in
Nicaragua would .'tend to stabilize
the government of Nicaragua as well
as all Central American govern

The tendency of commercial ships
to increase in size may hasten the day
when a Nicaraguan canal should be
constructed.
While recommending against con-
struction of the Nicaraguan route dur
ing present conditions of world trade
and world finances. the inter-oceanic
board pronounced the building of
such waterwa- feasible from both
an engineering and a construction
standpoint.

Paper money may be looked upon
as token money carried to its final ex-

all in itself; the value depends who'll

though the idea of paper money might
be expected to have developed easily
from token money, no one in the
West seems to have considered the
matter feasible until more than a
