expensive Why that slide waB named the cockroach I could not discover Certainly even the Panamanian cockroach is not ao large and be moves much more swiftly Before the first French company quit operations in 1889 the Cucaracha began to slide and it first gave the Americans trouble in 1905 the second year of their work on the canal Between then and July 1 1912 nearly 3000000 cubic yards of material was removed from the canal because of it The slide had broken nearly 1900 feet frana the axis of the canal and covered an area of 47 acres Last fall the engineers were congratulating themselves on having the cockroach but in January it started stopped moving again and nearly covered the bottom of the cut “What is going to be the cost of that slide to the United States?” 1 asked Colonel Goethals as we stood at the edge of the Culebra cut and looked across the chasm to where the steam shovels and hundreds of men were laboring to remove the vast mass of earth and rock “Well” the chief engineer replied“our estimate is that by the time It is all cleared up It will have required the of about (5000000 more expenditure than the cut would have cost if the slide had not occurred

is opened?” “Absolutely none I believe” he an"When the excavating and swered have ceased and the wadynamiting ter is In It will be quite safe We have the slides gnd breaks mapped out as far back as there is any Indication of their extending and are It is working back to those lines merely a matter of persistency and pa- tience” "When will cut?” the water be let into the 'iy In £ thals tion October" replied Colonel Goe“But theie will be no celebraover the event That one In Jan- 1915 is giving us enough worry and we don’t forget the premature and ridiculous celebration by Ferdinand do Lesseps many years ago We will Just turn the water In — that's all Then we can complete the excavation there which will do with auction dredges the work cheaply and rapidly” "And when will boats be

experience naiqe of Ismay be no longer used Anyhow J Bruce to Bee the canal opened to commerce as soon as possible for it Is revenue I am after” Another day I stood with Col D D Gaillard the engineer of the central division outside his office in Empire and watched his army laboring in the has of which cut the completion been his biggest task and greatest glory Right at our feet a big area had sunk down 70 feet in a night and if there had not been warnings of the break a wing of the colonel’s office building would have gone down with it “We had just time to remove that wing” said he “and my office force la rather nervous now for there are three big cracks under the main buildings I expect It too will have to be torn down very soon "These slides used to make us rather despondent for It seemed as if they never would stop but the progress we are making this year has cheered 'hnd forces again up the operating we can Bee the end of the task The t slide and the break are quite In the former the earth slides at an angle down a sloping face of rock and in the latter the mass sinks straight down and at the bottom bulges out into the channel Along both sides of the cut you can see numerous small slides and breaks Those are In pockets in the rock wall and annoy lag as they are they only need cleaning out The Cucaracha started as a slide and now It is both a slide and a break “Incidentally that cut should be a I have great place for geologists found in it every kind of rock except granite and many interesting fossils have been discoverand petrification In one 'stratum through ed there which we cut there were found a great number of teeth of prehistoric varieties of sharks" “What is your opinion concerning the date w hen the canal will be ready I asked for commerce?” ‘‘If I had my say" said the colonel ves“not a commercial emphatically sel would be allowed In the canal until It Is absolutely qpmplete down to In some of the the smallest detail many safety devices were not ia operation and an accident should result the canal would get a black eye from which It might not recover for a long time Officially the time for the completion of the canal is still January 1 1915 It may be done before that date but in March of this year there of was still about (50000000 worth work ahead of us “We who have been digging the canal and are still here in positions ol responsibility — I mean the members commission-- are of the Isthmian canal rather fearful concerning that part of the Adamson bill which permits to the commisdissolve the president in bis judgment sion whenever the canal Is near enough to completion We feel that it would be extremely unjust not to allow us to remain ‘on the job’ until after the grand formal It would be opening In January 1915 much like permitting a boy to complete bis university course and then taking him home before he receives bis diploma” And then Colonel Gaillard said some things about Mr Taft's efforts to put into effect that clause last January which must have made the ears tingle a bit "The Culebra cut Is like a circus I don’t know which way to look” said one visitor to the zone It is indeed a scene of wonderful Giant steam shovels are scattered through it scoopiug up enormous masses of rock and earth on half a dozen tracks on as many different levels snorting and puffing locomotives are ewiftly drawing loaded or empty dirt j trains along the ledges are batteries of steam and compressed air drills making holes for suddenly there Is a dynamite of a steam whistle a hundred men scurry to shelter and a dynamite blast fills the air with sound and dirt and rocks Watching the steam shovels Is a favorite occupation of visitors who venture down into the Culebra cut They and do a vast seem almost human amount Of work Their dippers hold five cubic yards of material weighing on an average a little more than three tons This spoil is emptied into cars of several kinds Flat cars with one high side are unloaded by plows that are drawn the length of the train The by cables upon a winding drum others are dump cars the largest of which are operated by compressed air The trains haul from the locomotive the spoil from the cut to dumping which on an average are grounds about 12 miles distant gome 18000- 000 cubic yards of this material was used as filling for the long breakwss ter at the
