Panama Engineer Says He
ave Resignation Six
Days' Thought.
NOT ESSENTIAL TO CANAL
IJeaves a Man Behind Him "Who Is as
Capable as He Is to Carry On
the Construction of the
Big Ditch.
NEW YORK, June 30.-nJohn F. "Wallace,
who resigned as a member and chief engi
neer of the Panama Canal Commission,
and whom Secretary Taft charged with
leaving the canal work at a critical mo
ment, gave a statement to the Associated
Press tonight, replying to Secretary Taft.
After making the statement public Mr.
Wallace left the city. He said he was go
ing to take a much-needed vacation, and
did jipt expect to return during the Sum
mer. Mr. Wallace would not make public any
of his future plans, and said that the
work he Is to take up will be announced
by the officials of the organization with
which he Is to become connected when
.they deem proper. Mr. Wallace said;
The primary causes which led me 1o tender
my resignation a chief engineer of the Jsth
mlan -Canal Commlsflon were underlying and
fundamental and I must resent the charge that
ray motive In leaving the work was a finan
cial one..
A careful consideration of the subject ha
brought me to the decision that 1 should, dis
connect myself with the work at the earliest
possible date and that It could be done with
out embarrassment to the Administration or
Injur to the work. It Is unnecessary to
state the reasons for this decision exctpt
that in fairness I should say that they in
volve no criticism of any act of the Presi
dent or the Secretary of War.
After a Week of Thought. .
Mr decision waa arrived at as the result of
the bIx dajts uninterrupted thought which I
was able to give the subject In all Its bear
ings during my voyage from New York to
Colon in May. Furthermore, I had pledged
mypelf to my family to give the matter of
my resignation as chief engineer, or any posi
tion which would require my continuous resi
dence on 'the Isthmus, eej-lous consideration.
It was at this psychological moment that I
received a cablegram from New York offer
ing me a business opportunity which I was
bound to consider. I therefore at once cabled
the Secretary of War requesting a conference,
and arrived in New York for that purpose on
Thursday. June 22.
In the meantime I had addressed a letter
to the Secretary In which I confirmed the
interview and also requested my annual leave
of absence, which was rart of my original
understanding with the Isthmian Canal Com
mission, and which I had requwted from Ad
miral Walker In March, to take effect at our
mutual convenience some time later in the
ceason, which request, however, was not com
plied with or answered on ins probably to the
Ridden chance made in the commission In
Je flit of April.
en my arrival in New York I was met by
WWUam Nelson Cromwell, who stated that
he Vvas delegated by the Secretary to arrange
for a personal interview with me, and asked
if, I Jwould meet him at the Manhattan Hotel
at 10 A. M., Sunday. June 25.
On arriving at the Manhattan Sunday, I
was met by Mr. Cromwell, who ushered me
into the Secretary's private apartment, accom
panied by himself. Presuming that arrange
ments had been made for a etrlctly private
interview, my son withdrew, expecting Mr.
Cromwell to do the same. However, the Sec
retary, in a rather peremptory manner, di
rected Mr. Cromwell to remain.
This action, of course, caused irritation and
apprehension on my part that the Interview
would be unpleasant and unsatisfactory, and
the irritation under which the Secretary was
evidently laboring had a tendency to prevent
the calm and dignified consideration of the
question In all its bearings which should have
been elven it.
It the Secretary understood me to fay that
I had accepted a position in New York, he
labored under a misapprehension. I did state
to him that I desired to accept one, but under
euch circumstances and conditions and at such
time as would cause the leapt embarrassment
to the Administration and the leat injury to
the work, and that I was even willing to go
to the extent of remaining for an indefinite
time on the commlsolon should be deslro my
counsel and advice in arranging for the
changes, assisting in preparing plans for sub
mission to th advisory board of f-nglnecrs in
September or in further consideration of the
question by the Administration or changes
during Its next session.
6u?xestion Is Spurned.
Much to my surprise he Indignantly npurned
my suggtstion and took the position that I
was compelled under what he called my con
tract, to remain In charge of the isthmian
canal, regardless of circumstances or condi
tions, until the completion of the work, and
spoke in such a manner as to outrage my
feelings to 6uch an extent that further dis
cussion of the reasons for my action was
out of the question.
I did not seek the position of chief engineer
of the lethmlan Canal Commission, and, con
sidering my salary as general manager of the
Illinois Central Railroad Company and my
other sources of earnings, my financial con
dition was not improved by my accepting the
position, and It was with the greatest re
luctance that I did so.
While it was my own expectation that I
should continue my connection with the work,
it did not occur to me that I was not free
to withdraw if Justice to myself and my fam
ily and to my reputation as an engincr re
quired me to do so.
In regard to the situation at Panama, at no
time during the progress of the work could
my relations have been severed more oppor
tunely than now, and with less damage to
the work. A complete organlration of the
departments and bureaus has been, effected.
W. E. Dauchy. a gentleman of high engineer
ing attainments, who has been chief engi
neer of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
Railroad Company, and 'who had occupied
the position of division engineer in charge of
the Culebra division, was uron my leavlnc
the isthmus, placed in charge of the work as
acting chief engineer, he having occupied a
similar position during my absence from the
irthmus at the call of the Secretary during
the month of April, and having satisfactorily
conducted the work through the demoraliza
tion attendant upon the change in organiza
tion. The only work which can bo performed un
til after Congress at its next session shall take
some decided action. Is the gradual increase
in the organization and the addition of units
of machinery along a well-defined plan, which
Mr. Dauchy thoroughly understands.
leaves a Capable Successor.
The simple work of excavating at Culebra
and preparing for further excavations are
th only things which could be done pending
a final decision from Congress. The only pos
sible benefit ,that my personal service
as chief engineer could have been to the
work was such as might be due to the purely
personal element which would have been
largely supplied by my continuance with the
work in an advisory character. As far as
the actual engineering and construction work
is concerned, Mr. Dauchy was fully as ca
aable as L
I have made no criticism of personnel or
individuals, but I do believe that the obstacles
due to the governmental -methods required by
existing laws are so serious that they will
have to be eliminated tf the American people
are to see the Panama Canal constructed In
a reasonable time and at a moderate cost.
My only desire in this statement has been
to protest agalnstv what I consider the un
just denunciations of the Secretary and to
fully inform my personal friends and profes
sional brethren who have been familiar with
my caref of the essential facts relating to
this matter. I emphatically disclaim all re
eponslblllty for the various statements re
cently published, r.it-ced to have been made
te' eo-called frlenc" . JOHN F. WALLACE.
IVALIiACE THREATENS TAFT.
Would Make Public Telegrams Un
less Agreement Is .Reached.
WASHINGTON, June SO. (Special)
Secretary traft, beore he left this after-v
noon, said that Mr. Wallace had sent a
message to him through 31 r. Shonts, both
by telegraph and telephone, trying to fix
up the differences, and urging that they
should get together again. Mr. Wallace
suggested that If this were not done he
had certain telegrams which he did not
now desire to make public, but which he
would make public unless an agreement
was reached.
Secretary Taft said that this simply
showed the character of the man, and
while he expected there would be some
rejoinder from Wallace he would be glad
of it und have this "whole miserable mess
over."
'Wallace Promises His Side.
NEW YORK, June 30. A statement
published today by the Times, credited
to a "confidential report," of John J5.
Wallace, whose resignation as chief
engineer of the Panama Canal has Just
been accepted by the Government, con
tains a declaration that when Mr. Wal
lace accepted the place It was his pur
pose to remain in charge of the con
struction of the Panama Canal until
Its completion.
The "confidential report" declared
that Mr. Wallace will soon present his
side of the case'to the public In a state
ment which will conclusively show
that he was Justified In tendering his
resignation and will cause an investi
gation to 'be made.
Intcrborough Disowns Wallace.
NEW YORK, June 30. When asked to
day if it were true that the Interborough
Rapid Transit Company had engaged
John F. Wallace, formerly chief engineer
of the Panama canal, resulting In his
resignation from the canal position,
August Belmont, president of the Inter
borough Company, said:
"There is not the slightest truth In the
report that the Interborough has had for
a moment In mind the engagement of
Mr. Wallace, nor will It consider it.
"The Interborough Company does not
make a practice of buying men from
their engagements."

follows:

What we need on the Isthmus is a leader
of men. one who knows how to drive,
one who will not waste his time figuring

tention riveted on the larger end to b
accomplished.
"That Is the kind of a man I believe
John Stevens to' be. Stevens built tno'
Rocky Mountain division of the Great
Northern road, expending between SS0.
000.000 and 570.OM.000 for J. J. Hill, and

number of killed during the rioting on
shore at 300 and the wounded at twice
that number.
Martial .Law at Scbastopol.
Martial law has been declared at Sebas
topol and Nlcholaleff, and extraordinary
powers have been given to Admiral
Chuknln. commander of the Black Sea
fleet, but beyond the general conditions
existing In these ports of the Black Sea,
little definite reasons for the declaration
of martial law are known. Gossip, how
ever, mys there haj been a mutiny on
board the battleship Tohesme at Sebas
topoL The declaration of martial law in Erl
van was inevitable. In consequence of the
situation in the Southern Caucasus, dis
patches to the Associated Press Indicat
ing that Moslems and Armenians were
waging what almost might be called war.
With the surrender of the Knlaz Po
temklne, however, the immediate danger
of the situation seemed to collapse, the
5000 bluejackets at Ubau who followed
the example of their comrades on the
rebel battleship having earlier In the day
yielded to the military, by whom they
were surrounded In a wood near the port,
after a promise that better food would
be given them.
What seemed like an extension of the
mutiny to the sailors at Cronstadt also
proved to be short-lived, although all the
regular workmen In the port are still
on strike, and reports of coming trouble
both there and at St. Petersburg are rife.
The strike today was extended to the
longshoremen of St. Petersburg, and the
workmen In several large factories are
again restive and are threatening disor
der. Late last night a rumor gained cur
rency that a mob had sacked a small
arms factors at Kolplns, 20 miles away,
and was marching on St. Petersburg, but
of "this rumor the Associated Press has
been unable to obtain tne slightest con
firmation. Now that the Knlaz Potem
klne has surrendered. It Is probable that
the government will gradually allow the
publication of the details of the mutiny.
The censorship this morning -merely per
mitted the newspapers to print a dis
patch which gives the circumstances
without credit to a first-claw humorist.
This dispatch reads:
"ODESSA, June 17. (Old Style.) The
tranquillity of the city having been Inter
rupted, martial law has been declared."
BJEENAX SENDS FIRST WORD
Cables Xcws of Mutineers' Surrender
to Washington.
WASHINGTON. June 30. Mr. Heenan.
the American Consul at Odessa, In a ca
blegram to the State Department, dated
today o.t 2:35 P. M.. sayB:
"Firing-soon ceased. Fleet arrived at 12
o'clock today. Knlaz Fotemklne surren
dered at once without firing a shot."
OJt-TICIAIj REPORT OF MUTINY
Alleged to Have Resulted From Rev
olutionary Plot.
ST. PETERSBURG. June SO. (6:25 P.
M.) The official version of the affair puts
an entirely new light on It. It is al
leged the mutiny on the Knlaz Potcmklne
was the result of a plot concocted- by 20
sailors who were members of a revolu
tionary organization. The complaints of
bad food. It Is asserted, were mere pre
texts. When the complaint was made
to tho Captain of the battleship, he
caused the bluejackets to be drawn up
on the decks and asked those who were
satisfied to step out, and It was seen that
they were In the majority. Thereupon
the minority, headed by the revolution
ists, who are said to have Included for
eign anarchists, seized the guns and
turned them upon their comrades.
A bloody scene followed. Nine officers
and many men were killed or Jumped
overboard, and the mutineers, after plac
ing the remaining officers in Irons, took
possession of the warship. Commander
Gokoloff was among the killed.
The red flag was hoisted when the
Knlaz Potemklne appeared off Odessa.
When the body of Omlltchuk (the man
who was shot by the commander of
the warship, according to previous re
ports) was taken ashore for burial it
was surrounded by crowds of students
and revolutionists, many of whom were
Jews. Inflammatory speeches were
made, and subsequently some of the
revolutionists went on board the ship
and assured the sailors of the army's
sympathy and readiness to co-operate
with them. The sailors then turned
their attention to the ships In the har
bor and the portion of the city along
the water front, which was soon on fire
in many places.
During the wild excesses of Wednes
day' night about 300 rioters were killed
by the troops, several hundred were
wounded, a number of them belig
Jews. Many drunken rioters perished
In the flames.
Early last night the Knlaz Potemkine
opened lire on Odessa. The firing of
two blank shot's was followed by two
solid shots, but they passed over the
town, and did no damage. It Is report
ed that the battleship then coaled and
provisioned from steamers in the har
bor and weighed anchor at daylight.
Three wounded officers were retained
on board when the others were sent
ashore yesterday morning.
During the night many steamers In the
harbor which escaped the flames sailed
away.
Rear-Admiral Krugcr's squadron had
not been sighted when tho last report was
received.
In concluding the narrative compiled
from the Governor's report, the official
who gave the Information to the Associ
ated Press said:
This Is not a revolution; it is mere
drunken anarchy."

manded the Black Sea fleet, declared the
