CANAL ROUTE
SURVEYED
The Work is Complete and the Men
Arc Returning Home.
Wahhinmton, May 0. Ttie engineers
who have been making a survey for a
canal In Nicaragua huvo finished their
work und the last party will leave Grey
town for home on the steamer that Bails
the 11th of May. A few people will be
left to pay the bills and look after the
property of the government that will be
Htoreil there, but the survey is practical
ly done and a route has been selected
and staked out in detail. The rough
cstimato of the coat of constructing a
canal along this line is $210,000,000, but
that is subject to a correction when the
fund report of the engineers is received.
The cost of a canal across the isth
imiH of Panama with five locks is esti-
muted to be $140,000,000, in addition to
what has already been spent. The
French company will demand anywhere
from $90,000,000 to $125,000,000 for their
frunchiae, property and the wor tttey
have already done, but would probably
settle for $75,000,000. A canal on a sea
level according to the engineers would
coat $250,000,000 in round numbers, with
one lock at the Panama end in order to
protect it from the remarkably high tides
that prevail there varying from twenty,
five to thirty feet twice a day. In the
opinion of all engineers a eea level canal
ncroas the isthmus of Panama is the
most desirable, although it would be the
moat expensive. Thegreateat objection
to it is the length of time required for
its construction, which la estimated at
twenty years. It is believed that with
the work already done a canal with locks
ncroas Panama could be completed in
sii or seven years. Ten years is the
time fixed lor the Nicaragua route. The
reason that the sea level canal at Panama
would take so long a time is Mint the
space it limited and t would be posaible
to work only aamall number of men and
excavators. Tbe heavy digging ia all at
the water aheda, within the limits of a
few railee.
When tbe engineers return from
Nicaragua the coramleilou wjll complete
ita final report to be submitted to con
Kreu In December.

Ei, Pa ho, Tex., May C The Ameri
can and Mexican flags were intertwined
in th decoration of the plaza, where
tbe official greeting of President Mc
Kinley and cabinet took place this
morning. The presence on the stand of
General Hernandez, the personal repre
sentative of President Diaz, gave inter
national significance to the event. There
were thousands of Mexicans in the vast
concourse of people and their enthusiasm
was almost as wild as that of the Ameri
cans,
The president's speech was especially
noticeable on account of his injunction
to the people not to be alarmed about
imperialism. There was, he said, no
imperialism except the imperial power
of the sovereign people of the United
States. At coon the presidential party
resumed its journey westward.

Yea, August Floweret!!! has the largest
sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers and grandmothers
never thought of using anything elan for
indigestion and biliousness. Doctors
were scarce and they seldom heard of
appendicitis, nervous prostration or
heart failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigested food, regu
late the action of the liver, stimulate the
nervous and organic action of the sys

Superior Article Can Be Produced in
Porto Rico, Hawaii and the Philip
pines Large Consumption in
America.
New Yokk, May 0. That all the cof
fee consumed in the United States can
be grown in the islands which have been
acquired since the outbreak of the Span
ish war is the conclusion reached by the
bureau of statistics of the treasury de
partment at Washington, after a careful
study of the coffee-producing capabilities
of the new possessions.
The islands in which coffee cad be
successfully grown are Hawaii, Porto
Rico and the Philippines. Porto Rican
coffee, in the markets where it is well
known, is regarded as tiie best in tbe
woild, and it is tbe conclusion of the
bureau of statistics that when coffee
plantations have been developed in the
Philippines and Hawaii, all of the$l,
000,000 or more which the United States
sands abroad every week for coffee can
be expended among the inhabitants of
our own islands. Porto Rican coffee h.is
long commanded high prices in European
markets, though it has been comparative
ly little known in the United States.
Developments of coffee culture in Ha
waii during the last few years have
teen very satisfactory in the quality
produced, and tbe prices realized. In
the Philippines the product is of high
grade.
The fact that the United StateB ia by
far tbe greatest coffee consuming coun
try, and i6 steadily increasing her con
sumption, suggests tbat American
capital and energy may turn their atten
tion to tbe promising field now opened
in the islands. American coffee im
portations during thenine months end
ing with March, 1901, amounted to 017,-
344,000 pounds, with a value of $45,218,
000, a sum nearly $5,000,000 in excess of
the value of the coffee imports of tbe
same months of tbe preceding fiscal year,
indicating that for the full fiscal year tbe
total value of tbe coffee imported into
tbe United States will be about $00,000,
000.
