THE MOBfrnrQ ORE&ONIAN,. gATXTBDAY, SEPTEMBER 16; 1905.' & SEH LEVEL GANftL Foreign Experts on Board Said io Favor This Plan, QUESTION YET UNSETTLED Commission Will Leave for the Istb ' ' in us of Panama About Sep tember 27 Studying the Plans and Data. WASHINGTON. Sept. 15. A majority of the foreign members of the consult ing" board of engineers of the Isthmian canal appear to favor a sea-level canal Ko attempt has yet been made to pass upon this question at any of the regu lar board meeting's, but the fact is that the majority of the foreign delegates "who have been closely studying the vast amount of data collected and laid before the board by the canal commis sion are at present of the opinion that & sea-level canal would be better than & lock canaL Tne board met today for toe first time In a week In Washington and talked about dams. A decision on this question of dams was, however, post poned until the board has visited the Isthmus. The members expect to sail from New York with the canal com mission September 26 or 27. Next Wednesday Buneau Varllla and Linden TV. Bates will explain to the board their respective plans of canal con struction. KO MORE PANAMA FOR HIM Balcm Plumber Tells of His Experi ence on the Isthmus. T3ALEM. Or.. Sept. 16. (Special.) "I uea't believe I want any more of life in Panama," says John Kaiser, a well Icnewn resident of Salem, who returned yesterday from the Isthmus, where he had been for several months working as a plumber on Government works. "The opportunities for a workman, skilled or unskilled, are as a rule no better in Pan ama than they are here, and the man who goes to that climate must lace un usual dangers of disease and perhaps death. There is nothing pleasant in con ditions or surroundings at Panama, and a man must endure the unpleasant features of life In the tropics without increasing his wages enough to justify going to that country. "As has been said in the papers, sani tary conditions in the Canal Zone are being rapidly Improved, but they are still far from perfect. Even under improved conditions the American who goes there must take the greatest precautions to ward off malaria, yellow fever and bu bonic plague. If a man will take care of himself he can keep well, but most men get careless after a while and then they get sick." Mr. Kaiser was employed by the depart ment engaged in improving the sanitary conditions. As a plumber he received 56 cents an hour, which, he says, is no more than a man could earn on similar work in this country. He knows of no occu pation at which a working man can do better in Panama than he can in America. Mr. Kaiser continued: "Though the temperature is perhaps not -much higher in Panama, than it is in this country, theheaf Is much more oppres sive. The atmosphere carries so much moisture that a pair of blacked shoes left unused a week will be entirely covered with mold. The meat of beef cattle Is Pongy and tough and not at all palatable. The water, even though purified, is warm and unpleasant to drink. "There lsonly one line of business in which I thought I saw an opportunity for Americans, and that was In the establish, ment of eating houses on an American plan. American? on the Isthmus would patronise such houses. "Every steamer going to Panama car rleji many Americans, but every steamer coming from there carries nearly as many more. It takes most men about three months to get all they want of that cli mate and country. I would rather work ten hours for $3 in Salem than eight hours for 53 in Panama, and would save a much money here as there. That tells the story." CHARGES AGAINST YOUNG. Commander or Bennington to Bo Tried for Neglect of Duty. WASHINGTON Sept 15. The Navy Department today made public the fol lowing charges and specifications on which Commander Luclen Young who commanded the gunboat Bennington, which was blown up by a boiler explosion in San Diego harbor, will be tried before a naval court-martial ordered convened at San Francisco today: "Charge Neglect of duty. "Specifications: "Reciting first, that Commander Young failed to enforce paragraph nine, article 1606 United States Nan' regulations, which provides that all valves throughout the engineering department are to be re moved at least once each week; second, that he failed to enforce paragraph two article 1609, providing that the safety valves will be partially lifted by the band gear at least once each week, when not under steam, to insure their good working order; third, and fourth, that he failed to enforce other provisions of the regulations (Article 652) under which it was his duty to see that sentinel valves were kept In good condition and efficient working order, and fifth that he failed to comply with the provisions of the regu lations found In article 437. and article 6T0. requiring the commanding officer to approve the smooth log and, sixth, that be failed to give such orders and pre cautionary Instructions as were appro priate and necessary to Insure the effi cient condition of the engineering de partment of the vessel under his com mand for the efficiency of which he was charged with responsibility." HAS NO FEAR OP COMPETITION, Germany Not Alarmed at American Trade In South America. BERLIN, Sept. 15. The action of Presi dent Roosevelt in sending Judge William L. Penflcld, solicitor of the State Depart ment, to investigate the trade relations between the countries of South America and those of Europe, with the view of improving commerce with the countries lying to the south of the "United States, has attracted considerable attention here. The Central Bureau for the preparation ot commercial treaties, a private organi sation, representing the views of a large section of Germany, declares the mission of Judge Penfleld is an Indication that the authorities at Washington mean to go forward "full steam ahead" to cap ture the South American markets. Nev ertheless, it is pointed out by the bureau, the action of the American Government falls to find an adequate ecko in the American business world, and it adds that there are many indications that the commercial classes will not avail them selves ef the advantages open to thorn through governmental action. The aureau calls attUea to tb rod-. proclty treaty,, between Cuba, and, the United States, which, although offering a heavy discrimination in favor of Ameri can Imports, has not damaged the trade in German and otlysr European goods to the extent apprehended, but that, on the contrary, imports from Germany are ac tually increasing in spite ot the treaty. According to the bureau this proves that competition from the United States need not be feared in South America. CZAR THROWS DOWN BARS. TJkaee Immediately Repeals Retalia tory Duties Against America. ST. PETERSBURG, Sept 15. An im perial ukase abolishing the retaliatory du ties on American Imports was gazetted today, and was placed in Immediate effect at all the Custom-Houses by telegraphic orders from the Ministry of Finance.

SUPPLY PRICES VARY WIDELY Difference In Department Contracts Causes a Scandal. WASHINGTON. Sept li. (Bpeclal.) The Keep Commission, engaged In Investi gating departmental methods and Inaugu rating reforms, particularly In the pur chase of supplies, has discovered differ ences in prices of supplies ranging from SO to 100 per cent. All departments buy under the same methods, letting contracts to the lowest responsible bidder, yet va riations in prices of specific articles as bought for different departments are said to be nothing less than sensational In illustrating the inadequacy of present methods. It Is the plan of the commission to recommend that supplies be standard ized as far as possible, and that a central purchasing office buy them for all depart ments. Kaiser's Opinion of America. NEW YORK, Sept. IS. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, has arrived here on the steamship Baltic. He said relative to his conference with the German Emperor on educational mat ters: "I spoke to the Emperor relative to the exchange of German and American pro fessors," said President Butler, "an ex change that was suggested by the Ger man Emperor himself about two years ago and we hope to act upon it In- the near future," President Butler said that In the Em peror's opinion the United States Is held In high regard by all the countries of Europe and that by the making of the Russo-Japanese peace treaty possible, this country had been bound closer than ever before to the old world. Desertions Due to Poor Pay. WASHINGTON. Sept IS. General Frederick Funston, commanding the Department of California, in his annual report, quotes from his Judge-Advooate regarding desertions from the Army.

Baron Komura. the Japanese peace pleni potentiary, is committing slow suicide, ac cording to Takashlta, manager of a troupe of vaudeville performers now appearing here.

He was told that it was no worse. "But he will never get well," replied Takashlta slowly. "When the message was clicked over the cable that my coun trymen were preparing to receive him with funeral rites, I knew he would never return to Japan. He doubtless had learned this already by private cable grams. "It was our nation's way of apprising him that he was in disgrace and that he could only atone for It by showing through his own death that he was still a hero and patriot You Americans little realize what hari-kari means to us. "Komura know full well that there was but one course left Knowing that Amer icans would not understand his act. and that it would be viewed here as a dis grace, he could not commit Hari-kari in the usual manner. "He accordingly had recourse to some of the many powerful though subtle drugs with which Japanese statesmen and sol diers are familiar. It produces fever and makes It appear that he Is dying of dis ease, but when the end comes our coun trymen will understand and once more ac claim him hero." DOCTORS STILL PUZZLED.
