Haskln.) ; Culebra, Canal Zone, May 12. The construction of the Panama i canal is the biggest enterprise ever .'undertaken by man. and the I'nited i States is rapidly bringing it to a suc cessful consummation. When it is ? done It will be the greatest material accomplishment of this greatest of i nations As an eneineerlng feat It i stands first. As to cost in money "no one yet knows how much it will take, but it will be between $350,- 000,000 and $500,000,000 much more than any other single work 1 ever undertaken. It will be tbarnost remarkable artificial change in geo- Tnhv ever accomplished. The i American canal diggers of Panama, I working at the rate they are going : now, could dig the Suez canal in ; one year. The Panama canal will ' have a greater effect on world com rrnerce and world politics than any pother one work of ma,n. And above and beyond all these great things, it will give and assure to the United ' States of America the first place among nations. An army of 25,000 mert Is constantly at work constructing this giant water way that will lift the biggest battleship over an 85-foot stairway, and drop it again on the other side. Another army keeps the zone healthy. In one year alone they cleaned 1.000,000 linear feet of ditches In Panama, digging 13,000 feet more, and fumigating 6,000.000 cubic feet of house space s a precau tion against disease. To care for the mightv armv of workers Uncle Sam Is spending $2,000,000 a month for sup- pllt a With "four millions a month Tor their slogan, the workers are making nearly that many cubic yards of dirt - flv. But the.!' problem of digging the canal is not so much one of getting the dirt out as it Is of making away wlh the dir after they have gotten it out. In the I'nited States when a contractor i encounters a piece of construction work with a haul of more than 500 yards, he ' figures it on the basis of that distance hauled free, and the remainder lie charges for at whatever the cont is found to be. On the canal the average baul of the excavated material is more ? than 10 miles. And as the work ncirs s comoletlon the problem of getting the debris out of the way will grow more serious, the hauls becoming longer as i the days go by. Setting Hew Standard. y Rut notwithstanding the increasing "difficulties that are besetting the canal builders, they are continually setting n new standard. At the Y. M. C. A. and 'elsewhere on public occasions you hear the cry. or see projected upon a screen, "Four millions a month." A cheer greets It every time. And therein one sees tne nirlt nf the men who are digging the ' Thir was relolctng on the canal' a year ago last March when it was announced that more than 1,000.000 cubic yards of dirt had been excavated a. hiTTi it was said that It was just a 1 unurt at making the dirt fly. On the aone, however, they did not view it that way. Steam shovel men. dredge men. dirt train men everybody began to set their pegs at the 2.000,000 mark. - Through the difficulties of the ralnr " aeason they kept crowding the notch closer and closer, until In December or last year they were able to offer I'ncle Sam a Christmas gift or a 2000.000 u'vard record. But even then they did ' not rest on the oars of achievement. "Three million a month" became the ' rallying cry. and after two efforts, in both of which they made new advances -toward their i, 000,000 mark. In March ' of the present year they wrote down the highest excavating record ever made anywhere nearly J.BOO.000 cubic vards in a single month. In April they almost duplicated the record. Then the dry season ended, and during the summer they will worry along with something, ' over l.OOO.OOO cubic yards a month But everrobdy la squaring himself for a ' Hh at the 4.000.000 mark next De cember. Those who know tie temper of the men believe they will touch it. O rest est Known Tatk. ; Culebra cut has long been recognized as the grest task of the undertnklnx r It was here that the French ma 'o th-lr ' first assaults on tae great hair'-r tween the Atlantic and the l'a. itt oceans. It Is ths only place inng the canal where work has never t.e.-n ih- 1 ended from the time the first Fr.n. h , r npe rations began. It was tlu.uL-i t until 1 recently that ths length of time It .would take to dig the Culebra u' .jli 1 the length of time It would tak- o ! .complete the canai. But recent ij-veion- . rtenta tlnt to the Oatun darr, th , determining factor In the compl M .r .f 1 -me uudertasing. iuirm ,,.1--,, 1 eaten away bv na greed v moun. of a half hundred steam shovel a well of fair diameter. In the course of a year these wells, end on end, would make a hole In the ground about 140 miles deep. Into these wells they sink tons of dynamite. At noon, or after the force has stopped work, one hears a roar from these blasts that mages him think of a great artillery duel. A few montha ago thev set off a blast of 19H tons of dynamite, distributed in 25 holes whose depth varied from 35 lot 80 feet. It broke up over 70.000 cubic yards of earth. ft costs something to keep things go ItiK In the big cut. It takes about M).000 tons of coal a vear. which costs over a half million dollars. The wages paid are said to average from 40 to 70 ler cent higher than In the states, and the coal costs about 16.50 per ton as compared with J.I and 13 50 per ton in the states. It takes about !oo locomo tives, and other rolling stock In pro portion, to haul the excavated material from Culebra cut. The most of It Is hauled away in fo-ton Lldgerwood dump cars. Sixteen of these are made up Into a train. Five shovelfuls of the large type of shovel load a car. 80 shovelfuls making a train load. The train is pushed to the dumos -and In 10 minutes the Entire load of 320 cubic yards of dirt la removed by a mechan ical unloader. Available Tinrs. When the latest' available figures were made out. It wag costing the sov- ernment about 82 cents a cubic vartl for excavation In Culebra cut. But as the output Of material has been In creased oy nearly a half, with only a comparatively small increase of force It Is probable that they have been able to reduce these flgurce to the neighbor hood of 50 cents per cubic yard. The work that is being done bv the dredges is costing very much less. For instance, there are the big sea-going dredges "Aneon" and "Culebra," the former working ' on the Atlantic side and the latter at the Pacific end. The cost per cubic yard of dredged material is about four cents,. They .ttPj, erate in a section of the entrance chan nel about 500 feet in width and a mile and a quarter in length. Starting at the inner ' end and moving bIow ly, with their big 20-inch centrifu gal pumps in operation and. their drags sucking up the mud as they go, by thi time they get to deep .water their bins are full and they carry the mud out to sea and dump It. This is done by opening the gates in the bottom of the vessels. Thev tben steam back to the channel, having closed the gates of the bins, and repeat the operation. When the gates are closed. water Is shut Into the bins up to sea level Aa -the mud Is pumped In the water flows out. thus enabling them to al ways fill the bins with dredged mate rial. I hev work day and night, requir Ing a crew of 60 men. Besides the two big sea-going aredges, tney nave in operation on me canai tnree 20-inch suc tion dredges, three dipper dredges, five French ladder dredges, and several others. They are also fit ting up several more of the old French dredgas, and when thev are all In com mission the dredging plant will have a capacity of not far from 2.000.000 cubic yards of earth a month. As the rainy season makes very little difference with the dredges that part of the work will proceed without much Interruption from now henceforth. There are a little more than 50.000.- 000 cubic yards of material to be moved, so that counting onlv a million yards a month for all the dredging equipment. It would take but a little more than four years to complete the dredging end of the work. There Is now one pan of the canal wiiene thev see the finish. That is the -big spill way at the Gatun dam. Thev have gotten down to the final level on this, and by the first of October It will have been completed, and the concrete work there can begin. Immensity of Work. A few studies In figures will serve to show the Immensity of the work thev are doing. The excavations of single month in hey ulk every four months. The Sues canal required 20 years to build, At the rate of excavation for March the Isthmian canal force could dig the Sues canal In Just about one year. The Manchester ship canal, onu of the largest In the world, connect ing Liverpool anil Manchester, la over 35 miles long, and required many years to hutld. The commission movea enough earth In March to make a rate which, maintained 'from month to month, would enable them to dig a Manchester canal In less than 16 months. PRESIDENT FALLIERES.

Armand Fallleres, president of the French republic, is a robust and large bodied old rentleman of 66. He Is from the Midi, the south that provides France with office holders as inevuaoiy an Ire land provides New York with police men. Like all men rrom tne sotiin. n possesses the gift of oratory, but com bines with It a love for brevity In fact. It Is said that the longest speech he ever made only occupied half a colunjn of a newspaper and that since he has become president he seldom needs more than 20 lines. When M. Fallleres took over the fciy- see naiace after tits election 111s nrm act was to reduce the military and naval staff attached to the presidency. '1 he 15 or 20 officers of high rank on M. Loubet's personal staff were cut down to three, the highest in rank being a colonel. Fourteen officials attached to the protocol or etiquette department were dismissed. It h out of place for the chief mag- strate of a democratic republic to be surrounded "Vith so much ceremony," was the new chief of state's remark. Madame Fallleres ran her side of the official residence on the same lines. An armv of cooks, scullions, chamber maids and valets had to go, and Mari etta, the family cook, who has been In the Fallleres service from time Imme morial, was installed in the presidential kitchen. These changes and others, such as not keeping up tne state stables but hiring horses when they are needed for state occasions, are ascribed by Parisian sa tirical newspapers less to a dislike for ostentation to a love of thrift. Winter and summer. M. Fallleres rises at 6 and Immediately takes a cold show er bath. Then, weather permitting, he starts oft for his morning constitutional walk, never less than five miles.

He rarely goes to the theatre or the opera except when obliged to do so on state "Occasions. A man of simple tastes and straight forward character, M. Fallleres wns eleeted to the presidency first of all on account of his personal merit and mod erate views, and, second, because the Krench Republican leaders have laid down as an axiom that the president should never be what is commonly called a man of action, who might be Inclined to Interfere with the decisions of his ministers and even at times try to lead them. They selected Armand Fallleres In opposition to Paul Doumer because they knew lie was a safe man who would confine himself strictly to his constitu tional prerogatives, whereas M. Itmimer was tainted with a suspicion of self assertl veness. 1. P. HArBESCHOU, Prop. THE WHITEHOUSE LONG BEACH, WASHINGTON.
