CONSULTATION FREE mated that the canal, when finished and opened to traffic, w ill represent a total expenditure o f $375,201,000. When the canal project was adopted it was estimated to cost only $144,233,358. Chairman Tawney, o f the house com mittee ou appropriations, on his arrival at Panama witli his committee, talked o f paring down the estimates of the commission and reducing the cost o f construction. It is not seriously thought, however, that anything worthy o f note could be accomplished in this direction. Rather, the impression prevails that when the last dollar has been spent, the cost o f the canal will be found to exceed rather than run under the lat­ est estimate o f $375,000,000. In its an­ nual report, made public today, the Isthmian Canal commission discusses this question o f cost, saying: “ Wages have increased, and the cost o f materials and manufactured articles lias risen. Prosperous conditions in the United States, combined with the un­ savory reputation that the isthmus had regarding its healthfuluess, made it necessary to secure labor to increase the wage scales from 30 to 60 per cent over those paid in the United States for similar classes o f work. Certain gratuities as additional inducements were also offered, which in the main have since bee$ continued. Moreover, the provisions o f the eight-hour law' were made applicable to the isthmus. ‘ The unit prices were therefore ma­ terially increased. Various changes have also been made in the adopted plan, increasing the quantity of work to be done. In addition, more detailed surveys and plans than were originally available have been made, and the work has progressed sufficiently* to give reliable data relative to unit costs. “ N early 50 per cent more work is necessary to complete the canal than was contemplated by the original esti­ mate and the unit prices, due to labor conditions, cost o f materials, and gra­ tuities given the employes, have been increased about 20 per cent. The esti­ mate, as prepared, shows that the total cost o f engineering and construction alone sums up to $207,766,000, to which, if the purchase price and the estimated cost o f sanitation and civil government i>e added, there results the sum o f $375,202,000 as the total cost o f the canal. “ O ver Ite r Head.
