Commission Makes Known ' Amount' of Work Accom-, plished on Big Ditch. .(United Press Leased Wire.) ' - Washington. D, C, Nov. 10. The Panama canal commission has sent its report to the president. The annual rennrt nf the Panama i Canal commission for the vear endlnsr I June SO haa Just been published, and is m part as rouows: ... The department of construction and engineering consisted of three depart ments and 12 divisions; each division had Us independent' administrative or ganization and i reported through the head of the department to which It be longed. Under the organization as it existed buildings were erected, roads built, and sanitary ditches dug or constructed in the same territory in which canal "work was- in progress, but In each specific Instance, under a separate -head; the results were not always satisfactory. In order to concentrate authority, : to expedite the transaction of business, to secure proper coordination, to fix defin itely the responsibility In any particu lar case, and to reduce the cost of ad ministration, a complete reorganisation was undertaken toward the close of the fiscal year, to be effected gradually, be ginning July 1, by: which all construc tion work. In any given district, irre spective of its character, would be placed under on head. .,. . . Squlpment . Bsqulrsd. - ' To accomplish the object sought, the aone was divided Into three parte, each of which is to constitute a division under the department of construction and engineering, the division engineers reporting direct to the chief engineer. To the equipment for excavation in the dry. reported on hand at- the close of the last fiscal year, 14 70-ton steam shovels, 1 95-ton - ateam shovels, 292 Lildgerwood cars, and 668 12-yard dump cars were added by receipt or purchase during the year, with the addition of tOO dump cars, . it 1 Is anticipated that the locomotives, steam shovels, and cars on hand or under order will be suffi cient to complete the work to be dona by this elass of equipment. The report proceeds with exhaustive details of work done and difficulties encountered on the various dlviaions. One of the latter was the great Cu caraoha slide moving from four to 14 feet a day, and embracing 600,000 cubic yards of earth. Several other, great Hues interrupted the work. Testing; Ground. At Culebra station' a sinking of the ground surface west of the west slope of the cut was noticed "and a corre sponding uplift of the bottom of the cut took place. A similar action of the bottom occurred In the canal Just south Of Gold HllL In both Instances this upward movement of the bottom was stopped by removing the material on the upper levels, where by the pressure was reauced. On the Chagres division the estimated amount of material to be removed from this section Is 1,079,493 cubic yards, of which 666,144 cublo yards were exca vated during the year. In the vicinity of Matachln 1,552,000 cubio yards are to be- removed, - and 4 S 4,16 1 - eubtc yards were taken out since December 80, when the work was commenced. At Santa Cms, between Matachln and the Chagres river, the removal of 1,277,800 cubic yards Is necessary to secure the prism, and of this amount 138,896 cubic yards were excavated ilnoe February S4. The total amount of material ex cavated was 1,774,124 cubic yards, place measurement, all from the canal prism. On the Colon dredging division . 5, 087,623 cubic yards of material were removed, of which 4,947,80 eubtc yarda were from the canal prism and the re mainder from accessory works, . Socks in rilrs. The Gatun locks are in pairs, and since the compilation of the laat an nual report tne projected oimensions have been Increased so -that the width in the clear will be 110 feet, the usable length remaining, as heretofore, 1000 feet The report deals at great length with the differences of opinion as to the Gatun locks and dams, the value of the materials, and results so far ac complished: also otner jocks ana asms on the route. At the close or the year zzos men were carried on the rolls, and the ex penditures amounted to $6,648,622.18. At the end of the year there had been erected and made ready for service the following equipment: One hundred and one steam shovel- 800 American and French looomotives; 8461 American and 669 French cars. 20 cranes, 80 unload ers, 9 track shifters (manufactured on the isthmus), 18 pile drivers (16 manu factured on the Isthmus), 2S bank or earth spreaders, and 46 unloading plows. Maintenance and repair of equipment by the mechanical division, in eluding operation of air compressers, cost 81, 981,618.79, and. the cost of equipment purchased during the year, and other miscellaneous machinery, including erec tion, was $3,890,836.94. , . . The work at Panama and Colon had been practically completed. The Im provements In the two cities costing nearly $2,000,000 and $1,000,000 more will be needed, chiefly for sanitary purr poses, to which much attention has been paid. . - ' ' .V JPajr for Mbor. ., , The average pay for skilled and un skilled labor per hour was. for gold men, $0,626. and for silver men $0,169; Of the total expenditures of this divi sion for the year, $2,181,918.89 were spent In the construction of new build ings, the largest item of which . was the construction of quarters for gold employes, which cost $982,771.86. The total cost of buildings constructed since American occupation to the end of the fiscal year has been $9,834,089.1$ of which amount $ll. 882.(4 have been spent for wire screening, with which all buildings are Inclosed. , ; - ' A net decrease in the skilled force was made during the year, yet there were almost ss many new employes. a in the preceding year, the number of men employed being 1200 and $5800. respectively, for the two years. Indi cating the shifting character of the force and showing that It is practical ly renewed every year. A radical change, however, has taken place in the source of supply. There were 1828 men employed in the United States, as against 80S 8 the year before, while the number employed on the Isthmus has increased from 8780 to 1362. There are approximately 600 more Eu ropeana and 1000 mora West Indians on the work, that there were at the close of the previous fiscal year. To cover this increase -and fill vacancies caused by the departure of employes from the Isthmus 4160 West Indians and 3660 Europeans were Imported. As the total excess of Immigration over emigration was nearly 18,000, the labor problem may be considered as solved. The total expenditures up . to June SO were $84,672,998, snd $36,391,470 more was then available, a total of $120,964,468., v Y. M. C. A; CONYENTI0X O .

To those conversant with the facts herelnbelow stated, in this case the un scrupulous methods employed by com petitors In paving materials, has been very , plain and this article must show that any combination of business men who resort to such means to bolster up their own materials - themselves have lack Of faith or sincerity of purpose in that which they offer. ,- . .. ' , The Denny-Benton company have fur nished over 15,000,000 vitrified brick during the past six months to 'many of the cities in the northwest, and this company at all times advocates vitri fied brick as the best paving material, purely on its merits and at all times stands back of Its product with an hon est defense, backed up by $1,600,000 Investment, an out-growth of 20 years of experience, and the future success of which, as has the past, depends upon supplying brick that will come up to the highest standard.

OOVTAKT V0Y2228 PM9TOZ rOB QVESsT am XTLXi 702f TRACTS W3EXC3C 3CBXTS APFJtOTAi : That the complaints of contractors' on the Queen Anne Hill paving con tracts against ' the quality ofc brick furnished by the Denny-Kenton Clay & Coal company have not been well founded is the statement of City En gineer R. H. Thompson, and a showing has been made that the criticism made by Assistant ., City Engineer D. W. McMorris, as published recently ' in The Times was not altogether well founded. An admission is made by officials of the company that a car load of vitrified brick, consigned to another destination and not Intended for use on Queen Anne Hill, was, by mistake, sent to that work. City Engineer Thompson since his return from Europe has investigated the complaints made by McMorris and has found out the facts in the case He said yesterday: - - "The city has had but little, if any, trouble from the quality of brick fur nished by the Denny-Benton Clay A Coal company. My recollection is that not to exceed i per cent of brick sent to paving Jobs by the company has been rejected, I understand the trou ble on Queen Anne Hill originated in a mistake when a carload of brick not made for that Job, but consigned to an other place and having no relation whatever to the city work, was, by mis take, sent to Queen Anne Hill. The matter has been looked Into carefully and the company has very promptly taken back the unsuitable brick and fur nished other and satisfactory material. The whole misunderstanding arose from a mistake." - ' Inspection of brick furnished for paving is required under all contracts and the inspection is done by the city Itself, as a protection to the property owners. The brick-making company officials assert that thev have cheerT fully removed all bricks found unsuit able and have abided by the ruling of the Inspectors. The following article from the Seat tle Times, of November 29, shows that City Engineer '..ompson of Seattle fa vors the use of vitrified brick on busi ness streets: City Engineer R. H. Thomson was the principal speaker at a meeting of th FVmrth Avenue Improvement club yesterday afternoor when the question ofpavlng was under discussion. Thomson ravorea tne use or viwinea brick on the entire thoroughfare, be tween Union and Jackson streets, but expressed the opinion that no objections would be made by the city to the use of creosoted blocks between Union and Seneca streets, a practically level sec tion or tne street.

Rnarlneer Thomson, at some length. detailed his findings In connection with different pairing materials on bis recent trip to Paris, and said that the only objection tbat could be made to wooden blocks was because of the slippery con dition in damp or rainy weather. He spoke of the noiseless features, which makes the paving so popular In the old country, but questioned the desirability of the paving in Seattle except on per fectly level streets. In discussing the improvement of Fourth ave its entire distance, Thom son expressed the belief that the street could be made more available for all sorts 'of traffic by making an upper and lower division at "Yesler Way so that one would reach the level of that thnrouarhfare while the other would SO below the proposed bridge over Fourth avenue. - The upper street would be on? a level with the entrance from Fourth avenue to the new city hall building.

Passing the laun dry of the Chinaman, Wilson proposed that they go In and treat Suong Lee. Wilson turned in toward the building and Devlin proceeded on hla way, but had gone only a few paoes when ha heard the noise of the revolver shot and turned to see young Wilson staggering on the sidewalk, with a fatal bullet wound in the neck. , Whether Wilson made an attack on the door of the laundry before receiving the shot, or had simply rung the door bell, will be brought out at the trial.
