Mrs. Bradley called hint on the tele­
phone and said:
"So Mr. Brown got away, did he?”
Livingston declared that on his

Brown would marry her she said:
"Well, he'll have to or I'll blow
his head off.”
P. P. Christensen, a Salt Lake at-

PETTIBONE CASE

EDITH ROOT
Boise, Nov. 27.- The trial of Geo.
A. Pettibone for alleged complicity
In the murder of former Governor
Hteiinenberg, began In the superior
court today., Judge Fre mont Wood
presiding.
Attorneys Hawley and
Darrow were present, and ('. C. Ca-
Washington, Nov. 27. MJss Edith
Root was married today to Ulysses
Simpson Grant, third grandson of the
lender of the Union forces In the civil
war.
Miss Root has never been enam­
ored of the superficial society diver­
sons which so often characterize the
careers of young women here who
belong to the higher official circles.
With her mother Miss Root has been
a close student of international pol­
itics, and is accounted to be one of
the best Informed in the cabinet clr
cles on questions pertaining to the ac
tlvltles of her distinguished father
Secretary Root, of the state depart
ment.
Secretary Root, following the lead
of the late James G. I^lalns. several
year* ago began to cultivate rhe
friendship of the countries to the
south, which were torn with dissen­
sions and which indulged in a rev-
olution almost every year. The prac­
tically defunct International Bureau
of American Republics was selected
by him to perform largely the work
of cementing the bonds between this
and those countries, and a former
Oregon newspaper man, John Bar
rett, was selected to take the dlrec
torship of that bureau. Mr. Barrett
then minister to Colombia at a *al
ary of *10,000 a year, accepted the
position, and the salary of the new
position was raised to *10,000 for
him.
Studied Country.
However, instead of leaving the
bureau referred to alone to work out
the problem, the secretary went into
the subject germane thereto with
great vigor, and his daughter, Miss
Edith, conceived the Idea of study­
ing the literature, history and sociol­
ogy of the southern countries, and In
company with Mrs. Root mastered
these subjects thoroughly.
Not merely as an accomplishment,
was this work done, but the knowl­
edge thus obtained was made a part
of the furnlshment of the secretary
when he journeyed to South America
and Central America last year, and

SANITARY CONDI
GOVERNMENT OK CANAL ZONE
Washington, Nov. 27
The Isth­
mian canal commission report was
released for publication last night.
It shows that excavation has been
going on at a very satisfactory rate.
That the preparation was efficiently
done and the organization effective
is best attested by the results ac­
complished and the relatively small
falling off of the output during the
wet months; thus the amount of ma­
terial removed from the Culebra cut
was 4,047.071 cubic yards, place
measurements, from January 1 to
June 30, out ot a total of 5.570,432
cubic yards for the fiscal year.
IsM-ks »nd Dams
This department of construction
embraces the Gatun locks and dam,
the locks and dam at Pedro Miguel,
the locks and dam at Boca.’ineteoral-
ogy and river hydraulic*.
The locks are In pairs, each, as
now proposed, with usable lengths of
1000 feet and widths of 100 feet. The
adopted project contemplates a flight
of three locks at Gatun, a flight of
two locks at La<Boca, and one lift at
Pedro Miguel.
Prior and subsequent to the adop­
tion by congress of the 85-foot level
canal In June. 190(5. borings were
made to determine the character of
the foundations at the various lock
sites. The classifications of the data
»0 obtained was recorded in such a
way as to cause considerable adverse
comment, questioning the sultablllay
of the material for the purpose. To
actually develop the character of the
foundations on which the locks are
to rest five test pits each 6 feet by
8 feet were sunk to the depth of the
lock walls at Gatun. two at Pedro
Miguel, and one at the spillway at
Gatun dam. The outcropping of trap
rock at La Boca, which
borings
|howed extends to propor depths,
rendered Hueh examinations of the
foundations for these locks unneces­
sary. On the completion of the test
pits a board of consulting engineer?,
consisting of Alfred Noble, Freder­
ick P. Stearns and John R. Freeman,
made it personal examination of the
mateiTal, and under date of May 2
I9o7, reported as follows:
"We beg to record that we found
all of the locks of the dimensions now
proposed will rest upon rock of such
character that should furnish a safe
and stable foundation.
Not by Contract.
The conclusion that the work can
be done better, cheaper and more
quickly by the government has been
reached only after free and full dis­
cussion by the various members of
the commission and the, higher offi­
cials connected with the construction
work, and after careful considera­
tion of all sides of the proposition.
Construction of Railroad
The completion of the canal will
necessitate the abandonement of the
present main line of the Panama rail­
road, and preliminary surveys for the
location of a new line on the east side
of the canal were commenced the lat­
ter part of July and completed In No­
vember. The location of the line was
practically determined In March, and
Involves the excavation of 1,600,000-.
cubic yards of material and the plac­
ing of 12.000.000 yards In embank­
ments.
Itoundiirlc'i
’
The centre line of the canal being
practically determined, survey* were
made to fix the zone boundary lines,
which, under the treaty, are five
miles on either side of the centre lino
of the canal.

commission In this work was an en­
