Manufacturers Convinced That Canal

Victory for Japs.
Washington, May 30.— In view of the
published intention of the Isthmian
Canal commission to buy in the cheap­
est market, there have been a great
many inquiries as to the price of steel
rails, one of the principal articles of
supply which figured in the commis­
sion’ s determination.
Colonel Edwards, administrative offi­
cer of the Canal commission, addressed
an inquiry to Secretary Drake, of the
Panama Railroad company, intended to
elicit information on this point. He re-
ceved a reply which in substance is
that the price of steel rails in the
United States for the past 12 months
has been uniform at $28 per ton, while
in foreign makerts the price was $24
per ton.
The exceptions were where
rails were sold in the United States for
export, when the prices were estab­
lished by direct negotiation and were
matters of private record.
The Panama Railroad company con­
vinced the manufacturers that its rails
were purhased for export to foreign ter­
ritory (which, Mr. Druke says, Colon
is), and was able to get in June last
70-pound rails for $22.50 for first qual­
ity and $21.75 for second quality.
hast January it bought 1,200 tons at
$25 for first class and $-'4 for second
class, and more recently purchased
2,500 tons fur the Canal commission
and 3,500 for the railroad at $20.45,
all three contracts being made in com­
petition with foreign bidders, whose list
price was $25 for f. o. b. at New York
or $27.75 c. i. f. at Colon, exclusive of
wharfage and port charges.
