Colon, June spread of yellow fever, against -which tie authorities iuet sow seem powerless, -has had the effect of cassias a feeling akin to panic ausoag the tnea esrployed on the construction of Panama canal. As one day succeeds another conditions grow worse and unless there are decisive steps taken and at once to check'the spread of the disease the probabilities are that most of the Americans will make for home, leaving the-officiate in charge of the canal work in the lurch.

Ihiring the pact month or more not a day has passed duricg -which there hare not been reported in the canal zone at least four new cases of "yellow Jack."

Shoats. chairman of the canal com- missSon, and William Nelson Cromwell, counsel for the commission, but refused to make any statement as to what matters had been discfissed Immediately after the conference Secretary Taft left for Xew Haven. There is the keenest apprehension fore Mr Taft starts for the Philippines.

Friends of Mr. "Wallace are of the opinion that he has not yet resigned and that if certain suggestions he may make after a close inspection of xhe ground are adopted he may remain office. la any ereat, it was said, he would not sever his connection with te work for some time.
