A summary or n preliminary report by the committee was made public at tho White House. Kxccsslvc iiilnfull wa.4 found tobeonoof tho chief causes for the slides, and control of thu fall hiK water was the most Important rum eily HiiKueslod. Tho committee made detailed lecoinniendatloiis for the pre vention of slides In future. "Tho committee looks to tho future of the canal with conlldence," the re port declares. "It Is not unmindful of tho labor necessary to deal with tho piesent slides, and It realizes that slides may be a considerable but not an unreasonably largo maintenance charge upon the canal for u number of years. It also reall.es that trouble In the Culebrn district may possibly again close the canal. Nevertheless tho com mittee llrmly believes that after tho present dllllciiltles have been overcome navigation through tho canal Is not likely again to bo seriously Interrupt ed. There Is absolutely no Justlllen (Ion for the statement that trallle will bo repeatedly Interrupted during long periods for years to come. The canal will servo the great purpose for which It was constructed, ami the realization of that purpose lu tho near future Is ajsured. I Precautions Urged by Sclontlsts. "The committee believes that bouio sliding ground will continue to enter the canal for sovcrnl years to come, though lu diminishing amounts. Any relatively Inexpensive measures which tend to arrest tho present active Hltdcs or which promise to leduco the charge against malnteiiaiico of the canal in the futuro uro therefore fully war ranted." Tho committee believes tlint every avallablo and practicable device should bo used to turn rain from ground that Is sliding and prevent Its entering ad jacent ground, and It suggests the fob lowing measures: Tim committee believes tiiat inreni- i cnlng ground bordering tho slides. pil- , ecent slides and. so far as practicable. active slides themselves, should bu siif ' llclently covered with vegetation to . prevent surface wash. 1 "llefoio extensive movements of tho ground occur winning Is fiequeiitly , given by the appearance or craeus po rlpheral to the coming slide. As soon as they are formed they should bo tilled up In order that they may not 1 Intercept surface water. "I'ndlsturbed anil wiroiiioneu aieim near tho slides should bo tnorongnij drained both by surface and by tile drainage, to keep us much water out .. ii,,.!,! nu nnaniblo. for they may Imj come uiistable. mid they muy supply water to thu slides. "A complete system of open drains should ho established on tho great slides nud tho water carried away as dlrcily n possible. "Dralnago by menus of tunnels might 1 bo adapted to a few special cases, bet should be tried with caution and ex- ' tended only In cases which promWo re sults commensurate- with the cost. , In summing up tho history of the ninsont slides tho committee concludes that slnco tno three gieat slides are all in the Culebra district this Is the chief aiea of danger.

It must bo borne lu nilml that tho Lincoln Highway association Is an or ganization aiming at thu establishment of a continuous Improved highway from tho Atlantic to the Pncllle and that It Is not In Itself a constructing or ganization. It has never undertaken and will not uudurtuko tho actual building of sections of road, which In every Instance aro superintended by tlio regular authorities appointed and elected for Unit purpose. Tho amount which tho association can procure to be spent upon tho road by proper means, through thu regular channels provided for road const ruction In mu nicipalities, townships, counties nud states, overbalances by thousands to one the amount of construction which could bo done by tho direct expendi ture of the sums contributed by volun tary subscription toward tho bulldliiit of the highway, To all practical purposes the Lin coln highway Is now completely mark ed fiom Now York to San Francisco.
