Besides this considerable saving in exjieiiditiire, Mr. Schlecht said that two gears’ time would lie saved if the iiivernment should undertake the completion of the Panama project. These are certainly important consid erations, but how much influence, if anv, they will have upon congress is alto gether problematic. Much will depend upon the nature of the report which the canal commission will make and there is reason to expect that this will be fa vorable to the Nicaragua route. In his letter of acceptance President McKinley said: “ A subject of immediate im portance to our country is the comple tion of a great waterway of commerce I >e tween the Atlantic and the Pacific. Theconsi ruction of a maritime canal is now more than ever indispensable to that intimate and ready communication between our eastern and western sea ports demanded by the annexation of the Hawaiian islands and the expansion of our influence and trade in the Pacific. Our national policy more imperatively Ilian ever calls for its completion and control by this government.’* There probably would be no difficulty in acquiring from Costa Rica and Nica ragua the necessary territory, though it is |N>ssible those countries would require some modification of the proposition as to fortifications.
