rallied to 166 immediately.

ject of djscusslon today, but most of

ABOUT TO BE SOLD
Southern Pacific Negotiating With
Union Pacific for Sale Stocks
Take a Sharp Rise.
New York, Oct. 4. Rumors are cur
rent In Wall street that Southern Pa
cific Is negotiating with Union Pa
cific for the sale to It of Central Pa
cific The report grew out of the recent
visit here of attorney general McRey
nolds and at the offices of the inter
ested companies it is neither affiremd
nor denied. It was sufficiently cred
ited to cause much interest In Southern
Pacific collateral 4's, which are secured
by deposit of Central Pacific stocks,
and they advanced materially on the
market today.
Retirement of those bonds would be
an essential part of any plan by the
Southern Pacific to dispose of the Cen
tral Pacific for the indenture dos not
provide for substitution of collateral.
Of course it may be nothing more
than a coincidence that the rise in
these bonds followed Immediately on
the conferences between the attorney
general and capitalists representing
the Harriman lines, but in any event
the buying was apparently of a very
good kind.
OIL MAGNATE'S WIFE
IS LOSING HEAEING
Mrs. Rockefeller May be First In Amer
ica to Try New Rndinra Cure to
Restore Hearinsr.
New York. Oct. 4. Mrs. John D.
Rockefeller, wife of the famous old
millionaire, probably will be the first
American to test the new German ra
dium and mesathorlum treatment for
deafness.
One of the physicians of the Rocke
feller institute s authority for the
statement that negotiations already
are in progress to bring to this coun
try Dr. Huegel, of Munster. a famous
specialist, who is said to have made
some remarkable cures, so that he may
endeavor to cure Mrs. Rockefeller of
her affliction.
The wife of the oil magnate Is rap
idly losing her hearing completely and
unless some way is found to stop the
progress of the trouble will soon be
stone deaf. She already has begun
the study of lip reading and it is said
she has made some progress in sign
language.
As soon as Mr. Rockefeller heard of
the remarkable work done by Dr.
Huegel it is said he reuested the of
ficials of the Rockefeller Institute to
make an investigation, and if it was
found advisable to induce the German
scientist to come to America as Dr
Lorenz did to treat Loleta Armour.
HOSPITAL SUNDAY
, ,.
. TO BE DECEMBER 7
Austin, Tex., Oct 4. Acting gover
nor Will H. Mayes has Issued a proc

"Hospital Sunday" in Texas, and cal
ling upon the people of Texas to give
consideration on that day to the need
of hospital provision for the sick and''!
suirering "Doth as a matter of com
mon humanity and for the prevention!
of disease."
The proclamation urges that public
meetings be held on that day for dis
cussion and organization. Where
church rules do not prohibit, he asks
the clergy to prea'ch at some service
on that day, on the necessity for nrop-
erlv safe guarding the public health,
caring for the sick and preventing the
needless spread of disease, or to pre
sent the subject at any meeting prior
to, or Immediately following that day.
Officials of commercial and civic or
ganizations, charitable and social so

are asked to present the matter to
their members on or about December 7.

Notwithstanding reports from Eng
land of threatened labor troubles in
Manchester, foreign countries have
taken over 1.000,000 bales of American
cotton for this season up to date. This
demand seems to keep up and southern
spot prices are on a parity with New
York. In fact there is very little dif
ference in quotations.
In the cotton goods trade proper,
the most reliable accounts indicate that
the tariff has had the effect of hold
ing back the demand to an olnt where
buyers will soon be making frantic
endeavors to meet their customers' de-

BRIDGE AT VINTON
HAS BEEN FINISHED
New Townsite Planned Roads in Cann-
tillo and La Tana. Sections Are
Being Greatly Improved.
La Tuna, Tex, Oct. 4. The El Paso
county bridge across the river near Vin
ton is finished, but the west approach,
a one-eighth mile fill, is not complete.
The six sets of piling supporting the
bridge have been boxed with two inch
plank from below the river bed np to
the stringers. This makes a very sub
stantial appearance and is designed to
protect the piers against the washimr
out process that poes on every year dur
ing high water.
E. K. Talbot and Dan Stewart, who
own the land around the east approach
to the Vinton bridge, are planning a new
townsite therc A petition to the Santa
Fe company is out asking them for a
side track.
R. E. Bassett was down from Las
Cruees with a photographer and took
pictures of the Bowden warehouse, the
Farmers warehouse and the Lauson
orchard for the publicity department of
the Elephant Butte Water Users' asso
ciation. The silos recently built on the Bailev,
Bennett and Casad ranches in La Union
district arc now being Tapidly filled,
the work having been greatly delayed bv
a mistake in sending otit a barrel of
supposed gasoline, which proved to be
kerosene, and was of no use in operat
ing the machines.
The west side road, from the Texas
line up, is being graded, which makes it
a slow stretch at present for motor cars.
The same Jvind of work is being done
on the road leading over the Anthony
bridge.
A state bank is being organised for
La Tuna. One-third of the capital stock
has been subscribed. La Tuna people
are the promoters and an El Paso bank
is eneourasrimr them.
The chuck holes in the stretch of gravel
road between Montoya and Canutilio
are being filled with coarse gravel. Last
June, before the rains, this stretch was
the smoothest nortion of the macadam
road between El Paso and La Tuna. Be
fore the reins were over heavy motor
cars and farm wagons tore it all to
pieces and left it when dry, full of
ehnek boles, showing that macadam in
the long run will prove cheapest.

Is Really SO Miles Long.
The Panama canal does not as is
generally supposed cross the Isthmus
in an east and west diretcion. On the
contrary its general diretcion Is from
northwest to southeast The Pacific
entrance near the city of Panama is 2
miles east of the Atlantic entrance
near Colon. The length of the canal,
from shore line to shore line is about
40 miles but the additional dredging
of a deep waterway in both approaches
really makes the canal 50 miles long.
In passing through the canal from,
the Atlantic to the Pacific, a vessel
will enter the approach channel in
Limon Bay, which hasa botton width
of 500 feetand extends to Gatun, a
distance of seven miles. "Here it will
enter a series of three locks and bo
raised 87 feet to the level of the lake.
Steaming through the dredged out
channel of the lake It will enter the.
CUlebra cut The channel in the lake
varies in width from 500 to 1000 feet
After passing through the cut which,
has a bottom width of 300 feet the ves
sel will enter the Pedro Miguel lock:
and be lowered 30 1-2 feet to Mlra
flores lake, which, has an elevation oC
54 1-2 feet above sea level. Steaming:
for 1 1-2 miles through the lake the
vessel will then enter the two Mira
flores locks and be lowered to sea level,
passing out into the Pacific through a
channel about 8 1-2 miles in length,
and having a bottom wldtbof 500 feet
The water In the Culebra cut as well
as the approaches in both the Atlantic
and the Paeifc will be 45 feet deep. In
Gatun lake the depth of the watec
varies from 45 to 85 feet
Creating Artificial Lake.
In" order to form this gigantic arti
ficial lake it was necessary to im
pound the waters of the Chagres river
behind a big dam. This huge barrlar
called the Gatun dam. is located about
seven miles south of Colon at the.
northern end of the lake. It is a mile
and a half long and nearly a half mile
wide at its baset about 400 feet wide at
the water surface and about 100 feet
wide at the top, which is about 105
feet, above sea level or 20 feet above
the normal level of the lake. It is In
reality a low ridge uniting the high
hills on either side of the Chagres val
ley, so as to convert the valley into
a huge reservoir. The darn contains
about twenty million cubic yards of
material, moat of which is spoil from,
the Culebra cut
Almost in the center of the dam Is
located the spillway. At the head of
j ini3 spillway are vertically snuins
1 gates to regulate the flow of water, so
that at all times the level of the water
in the lake will be under almost per
fect controL By raising the gates to
a higher level the surface level of the
water in the lake Is also raised and by
lowering the gates the surface level -s
reduced. It is estimated that even in
the three or four months of the dry
season enough water will be Impounded
in the lake to give a minimum derth
of 39 feet of water In the canal, which
will be ample for all navigation, as no
ships at present draw this amount or
water.
Vessels to Be Torred. Throish.
No ship will be allowed to pass
through the locks under its own power.
Electrically operated towing locomo
tives will be provided for this purpose.
To each ship there will be four locomo
tives, two on either side of the bow
and" two at the stern. The towing
cables will be attached to the locomo
tives by winding drums so that It will
be possible for the cables to be payed
out or taken in while the locomotive is
stationary on the tracks. Thus the big
ships "will be under absolute control
at all times. To further safeguard the
locks from accident fender chains will
be stretched across them. These chains
will be capable of stopping a 10,000
ton ship running four knots an hour
within 73 feet which Is less than the
distance that will separate the chains
from the lock gates. These cnains
can be lowered into grooves in the
bottom of the locks when the ship is
ready to pass out
Time of Transit 10 to 12 Hours.
The time of transit through the ca
nal for a "vessel of the largest type has
been estimated at 10 to 12 hours, de
pending on the rate of speed main
tained in passing through Gatun lake.
It will take an hour and a half to send
a ship through the three locks at Gatun
and the same time to pass it through,
the three locks on the Paeifc end, tha
Pedro Miguel and two Miraflores locks.
The feat of raising a large ocean go
ing vessel, -with a full cargo aboard 87
feet and lowering it to its initial level
in the space of three hours would hav9
been declared impossible a half century
ago. Yet that is exactly what can be
done and what -will be done when the
canal is thrown open for navigation.
Total Cost 400,000,000.
The total cost of the canal, Includ
ing the purchase from the New Panama
Canal company, the French combine.
and the payment to the Republic of
Panama, will closely approach the four
hundred million dollar mark. Three
fifths of a billion -dollars to dig a 40
mile dUch' This Is by far the most
costly engineering project in the world.
No other engineering marvel has cost
ten million dollars a mile to build as
has the Panama canal.
Over fifteen million dollars of this
sum. has- been spent in making the
canal zone -bapi table and1 sanitary. At
first glance this seems to be an enour
mous amount of money to spend in
cleaning up a place in which few peo
ple will reside permanently, yet the
engineers say that the sanitation of
the canal zone was the chief factor in
making a canal a reality Much of the
failure of the French was due to the
fact that workmen could not survive in
the fever and pest ridden country-
Of the 436 square miles of zone ter
ritory, the United States owns about
363 and 73 are held in pr vate owner
ship. Under the treaty with Panama,
the United States has "the right to ac
quire by pure hase or by the exercise of
the right of eminent domain, any lands,
buildings, water rights, or other prou
ertles necessary and convenient for the
construction, maintenance, operation,
sanitation a-id protection of the canaL
and it ian therefore, at an;, time ac
quire the lan.ls within the zone bound
aries which ire owned by private per
sons The I mted States ill also con
trol the area to be covered by Gatan

the canal zone.
