Taft alao made it cl-iar thnt a far aa present arrangement, go the building of the csnal Is to be tan-work of Chairman Bhonta of the Canal. Commlaalpn. At the beginning and again at the end of his upoech the Secretary miide distinct references to the report thnf have been circulated of late to the elect that there was friction between Mr. Shonta and himself, caused bjt the desire, of Mr. Shonta to be Mtipvrm In the canal work, without Interference from any one except the 'resident.

After recounting the Cpngreanlonal action that made the cana4 ntsslble. Secretary Taft told of the choice by the President of the Secretary of War a the head of the great department of con-truclloti of the Government." Then he aald: Of courae thla work waa to be" merely upervlaory. It waa not expected that the Secretary of War wodld meddle or interfere with the sound discretion and generally free hand which must be vested In theme apoclilly appointed to build the canal If successful results are to be ac complished by thn, but was expected that the Secretary of War should have a general knowledge of the work, ahould be consulted on matter of general policy, and. when particular matters were railed to his attention, seeming to need further Investigation, ahould make It and report the matter to the President." Thus Mr. Shnnts geta hla official pledge of a free band and becone- the responsible agent of the-Government In canal construction.

Almost at the clone tf hla talk the 'Secretary again spoke of the matter In enumerating some of the obstacles to rapid canal work found in the opposition of powerful Intereata, which takea different forma." It la found In misrepresentation of conditions on the Isthmus." he said. and In unfounded reports concerning frtctlotv between Jhose. having authority In the canal work." Mr. Taft told of the great work of sanitation that is being, done on the Isthmus, of the 'construction of accommodations for workers, and of transportation facilities, and gave an of what had been accomplished by the 'expenditure of the flO.Oon,0"O appropriated for preliminary work. He however, that thla was- rfbhost exhausted, and an emergency appropriation muat be made to meet the December pay roll.

He also aald he would visit the Isthmus once a year during his term of office. Mr. Taft reviewed the events leading up to the choice of route, and the various steps taken to make possible the -construction of a Panama canal. Not Change th Route. jof Congress.

In. favor of this route for a canal waa undoubtedly a wise one." he said, "few engineers who have visited the canal have. doubted the possibility of Its construction, either as a lock or aa a aea-level canal. The theory advanced by opponents of the Panama route, and by opponent of any canal, that th route 'of th canal hae not been finally decided upon, la utterly unfounded." i Speaking of the part of th canal constructed by th French company th lx-; taen mile on the Atlantic aid and five i mllM on- the Pacific' side he remarked: I Contrary to th expectation of the engineer, the prism of th canal at tea level in these two stretches; completely i dug twenty year ago, both on the At- lantlc and the Pacific aide, kaa been remarkably well preserved. The banks are as firm and have the'aam slope a given them originally, and th amount of ailt and other deposit from th Chagre and other river flowing lrtto and through' It has proved to be comparatively email." He went over th trouble experienced- with the old commission and th chaotic condition that led to th reorganisation of that board.

In telling of th new ar rangement he aakl of Chairman P- Shonts, with whom Mr. Taft has been supposed to be at odds: Mr. Shonta bad had large experience In railroad matters. "and had shown by his nergy and high character that be waa well utted to upon bia ahoulder this bo.t responsible task." Regret to Engneer Wallac. lie dealt at length With the disagreement with Chief Engineer Wallace; saying.

"Mr. Wallace fcejs: that I have; done um great -Injustice: it say that money Whs not th tmlv rnnaicieratinn -which led him to sever his relations; that there was too much red tape In the Government's muhods of business, an4 lhat-th healtn his family and other controlling- reasons led him to di conclusion, but that at our Interview he was' so embarrassed by my evident feeling on the subject that he uia not ao htnueir Justice in staling iuny the cntiM of hi.

Colon when our commission went there rirst was grown up with with weed, and with all that Jungle that a tropical nl a ad weather unrestrained rejoice In. Now. from point to point, aa the population Increases, as the work Is elaborated, the Jungle is being cut down, the hills are being shaved, and the tremendous work of the Sanitary Oi-parl-ment pools are being drained, swamps relieved of water, and in every" way the stagnant water surfaces and the propa- riling ground for th deadly mosquito are eing rudured. When one thinks of a atrip forty-seven milea long and half a mile wide In the centre of the tropics, with marshy swamps and water accumulating everywhere, the task of the stagnant water surface so as to pi-event the generation of moaqultoa seems Impossible. But It must be and can be done.

8tamping Out Yellow Fever. When Judge Magoon arrived upon the Isthmus he found Dr. Uorgas battling manfully against the yellow fever, but the cases seemed to be Increasing. Judge Magoon conceived the Idea that the fumigation which had been confined to two or three houses might well be extended to all the houses in Panama, and at considerable expense, and after procuring a large amount of material, every house In Panama was fumigated once every two weeks. "TO secure increased vigilance and popular assistance he employed all the respectable Panamanian physicians of Panama as Inspectors of the districts of that city, at salaries of a year.

He also offered reward for the discovery of any case, of-yellow fever not reported. By methods of this kind the native apathy, usually so great an obstacle to successful sanitation In Spanish countries, wns neutralized. By these methods, for which Dr. Gorgas and Gov. Magoon are both to be credited great praise, yellow fever has been reduced to a point where during the last month only three cases were reported, not one of the among canal employes, and all originating many miles from the canal line.

The efforts to subdue the fever instead of being relaxed are being continued. Square miles of woven wire netting with Interstices so small as to prevent the entrance of mosquitoes are spread about the piazzas of the house of every American or foreigner who come to live- under tne'-auspicea or the 'Janal, Commission in the Isthmus. The windows inside are also screened, and then mosquito bars on- the beds are used as a Urtrd "precaution. Whenever a case of yellow fever I the patient is at once either removed to the hospital and put under a woven wire screen, or. if he prefers to remain at home, the woven wire screen Is put over him and an orderly placed In charge or him at his own residence, in this way he is prevented from furnishing a supply of the poison to the healthy mos-qultos who In turn, by stinging, wouid bring it back to man.

Little by little, and facing discouragement after discouragement, the 2.ixx of the sanitary department are winning mis iigm againsi aisease, upon which the whole success of the canal work depends. As Mr. Stivens sa to me, when 1 crossed the Isthmus with him this month: I take off my hat to the work which the sanitation department haa done In this Canal "In the month of August, out of a force 'of 13.tn men. the percentage of illness was less than 25 per thousand. In June the cases of yellow fever were 01 and in deaths, in July there were 'Mi cases and 13 deaths.

In September there were 0 cases, and in October but 3. The percentage of deaths among all Is about 33, and among Americans about 20. More Trouble with Malaria. Good food la now furnished by a commissary at reasonable ratce. The carrying of refrigerated fruits and foods and meats on refrigerator cars from Colon scroes the Isthmus has Just been begun.

There Is an Ice plant at La Boca, another one at Colon, and others along the way are to be constructed, so that ice that roost healthful form of liquid in the tropics will be at hand for all. A hotel haa been erected at Coroxal. where the American employes of the com mission mav live and run in to tne business In Panama in a few -minutes by raHway. A Jiotel of 128 rooms Is beinr constructed at Ancon, which la the Pari! Ic terminus of the termlnat ng township of governmental Isthmian strip. We have a hospital at Ancon.

one at r-tnama. a convalescent hospital at an Island some ten miles off th coast In Panama Bay, where very healthful water, healthful bathing, and fine fruits -can be had. so that in all the hos pital accommodation has been increased from about 300 to upward of I.Oiio beds. AniClltBil i.i' i. a at any point on the Isthmus, and any employe or laborer and any member of his family will be taken care of at these hospitals.

-In addition to this, and to protect Itself, the commission has taken over the general hospital of Panama and haa accepted tisMJM) Mex'can. a fund which had been voted by Panama for Ita Improvement, and Is now completely rebuilding It. it ha also.takan of the Insane and lepers of Panama, charging a certain rate per day. The of successful war gainst malaria are not so easy to produce aa those of the defeat of yellow fever. One reason la that malaria is so much harder to combat than is yellow Amexnmlnatlon for experimental pur-noses and repeated at various times under the direction of Col.

Taft bowed that Chief Engineer Steven ha come to an Important disagreement with hla' Mr. Wallace. Under Mrs Wallac." said. It was thought by th old commission, and by Mr. Wallace himself, to make experiments in the cot of excavating earth in the Culebra Cut.

He did thla with some ne' excavating, machinery, but prlncl-PaJV with th old transportation machinery, and he reached some results, the vlue of-which is-In dispute. He feel confident that he has shown by hi calculation that th cost per cubic yard of excavation In th Culebra Cut may be reduced below half of -that fixed by the commission, and this is used aa an argument In favor of hanging the type of th canal from a lock canal to a sea-level canal. Upward of half a million dollar waa spent by Mr. Wallace and the former commission in those excavations. Mr.

Shont and Mr. Steven have not deemed It wise to continue because hey think the condition under which th experiments were carried on are not like, those which will prevail In the actual excavation for the reason that the disposition of the S11 must be made at a very much longer distance and with a very much greater expense. I do not stop to pass on thin difference of Judgment between engineers, except to say that the excavation has been mad4 and. haa reduced the work to be done to that extent. The objection made to the excavation at this time waa that it may have prevented the devotion of more time and 'energy to the preparation of houses and of food supplies lor the laborers.

I do not know whether this is true of not." Reconstructing the Railway. In the pure work of construction, he said, the roadbed of the Panama Railroad haa been made as good aa any In the United 8tatea, heavy rails having been laid almost Its length; but much remalna to be done. The telegraph and telephone system is being reconstructed, terminals and sidings are being enlarged, preparations are being made to double-track al- myst the whole line, and adequate rolling stock Is being acquired. i ne amount of this track laying will reach or SOU miles when completed, and It is one of the chief -consumer of laior In the construction department at present." he continued. The work of excavation is comparatively easy, for with me compresseu-air onus and blasting and the twenty-nine modern steam shovels which- are now on the ground and the sixty more which are ordered, dizain might go on With a sea-level canal at least 270.0(10,000 cubic yards of material will have to be blasted, dug out.

and earned, from a few feet to fifteen miles. The great problem, however, la the problem of transporting that which Is dug to the point where It Is to be finally deposited with such speed and such return of the vehicles of transportation as to enable the shovels to be in constant use. It Is a problem of transportation, really, and not of excavation. There are to-day engaged on the railroad proper about 4.000 employes that is, there are 2.na) paid for six days' labor, but they are not perhaps the same In addition to this, there are 13.0K) laborers on the pay roll of the commission, and that means about lO.OOu effective laborers per day. As the work of construction houses goes on, as the capacity for housing and feeding and properly attending to laborers proceeds, we may look for an increase in the pay rolL Vast Purchase of Moterlals.

One of the great burdens of the present situation la the procurement of transportation and proper disposition of the immense amount of supplies and material and equipment which have to be ordered and pressed forward to the Isthmus. The following Is a list of the principal Items of material purchased and delivered or now under order, and will nerve to give an idea of the vastne of the undertaking and why congestion in sea transportation and on the railroad, with all the commercial traffic besides, may be pardonable: 61 steam shovels. flat cars. 12 rapid unloanVrs. 22 unload nit plows.

and there unboxed nnd reassembled before available for use. Still, as Mr. Stevens himself- told me, everything grows better from month to month. The exasperations and frictions of 'early organization are passing- away as matters move with more smoothness." Asiatic Labor Suggested. Of the labor question he aald: Nearly all the labor upon the Isthmus Is now negro labor from the West Indian Island.

It la very poor. The question remains to be decided whether we shall attempt to secure Chinese or Japanese labor. It has been held by the Attorney Gei-eral that the Federal eight-hour law applies to those employed by the Canal Commission I was at first disposed to think its effect would be good, because we could have three shifts every twenty-fovir hours. I am aaaured, however, by Mr. Stevens and Gov.

It was SUDDOSed that an extra session of Congress would be called In octoDer, wnen ample time would have been given for deliberation In maklns- all the necessary Great Interests Opposing Canal. Secretary Taft, in closing, said that one of the great obstacles to success In building the canal Is the opposition of powerful persons and interests to Its construction. It Is not to be expected that owners and managers of great transcontinental lines should become enthusiastic over an enterprise which, if carried to completion. rami certainly anect tne rates or irelght between the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts," he said. The opposition of powerful Interests to the building of the canal takes differ ent forma It Is found In the misrepresentations of conditions on the Isthmus, in untounaea report concerning friction between those having authority In the canal work, in intimations of irregularities and frauds and favoritism in contracts without any evidence whatever to jusuiy suspicion, ana generally in the constant suggestion of a presumption that the expenditure of millions In building the canal must Involve what Is called Doubtless Congressional Investigation will be held from time to time.
