A. Lougee et al, Washington, Nov. 27.—An annual report of the Panama canal commis sion. made public, discloses the fact that *68,285,110 has been expended on the big ditch. Of this amount 250,000,. 000 was paid to the French company, leaving *48,285,110 expended on Im provements. It was estimated by the first board that the canal would cost 2126.705.200, but this did not Include expenditures for sanitation. There Is no reference In the report to the proposition which has been brought forward to extend the width of the locks to 10 feet so as to accommodate, without difficulty, the extreme breadth in the development of shipbuilding, and this will be made the subject of spe cial communication from the commis sion. A strong position Is taken favorable to a continuation of the policy of doing the work by hired Instead of contract labor. Sanitation Is treated of In the report, a statement being made of what has been done nnd the declara tion that there wns no yellow fever originating on the Isthmus during the year.

STATE GUARD GUT TO 3 REGIMENTS! 2ABE THROWN OUT i Third and Fourth to Join Other Troops or Exist Unattached. As forecasted In The Georgian some weeks ago, the strength of the national guard of Georgia has been cut down from five to three regiments of in fantry. Adjutant General Scott, by direction of Governor Smith, has issued an or der abolishing the Third and Fourth regiments of infantry and the First cavalry, effective on pecember 1. The companies In the abolished regiments will either be attached to other regi ments or exist as Independent bat talions. This plan was Indicated In the an nouncement of General C. L. Ander son's staff, with the assignment of 1 R. L. Wylly and Adjutant C. ig, of the Fourth, and Colonel John D. Twiggs and Lieutenant Colo nel H. P. Hunter, of the Third. A detached battalion from the Third, with headquarters In Augusts, will con tinue under command of Major V, Barbot. A detached battalion from the Fourth will continue with headquar ters In Columbus, under Major John C. Coart. Fills Fifth Regiment. The Winder and Athens companies, of the Third, under Major S. V. San ford, will be attached to the Fifth regl ment, with headquarters in Atlanta, taking the places of the Rome and La- Grange companies. This will give the Fifth a full regiment of twelve com panies. The First cavalry will be divided Into two squadrons. One will have head quarters In Savannah with the troop: from that section, and the other will b< located In Atlanta, taking care of the Governor’s Horse Guard and the Can dler Guards, of Gainesville. Colonel Peter W. Meldrim. who had been the commanding officer of the First cavalry, resigned some time ago. Lieutenant A. Gordon Cassels, of Sa vannah, will be elected colonel of this organization and retired. • To Fulfill Law. These changes were Imperative bring the military organization of the state within the requirement* of the Dick law, which becomes effective Jan uary 1,' 1908. Under this law regi ments are required to have twelve com panies of 58 men each. By abolishing three regimental headquarters and combining the abolished forces with other regiments the organization now comes up to the requirements and the state saves several thousand dollars annually. There are now forty-four lnfanty companies, eight troops of cavalry and two batteries of light artillery. Under the change only three regimental headquarters will have to be main tained. To make these changes wlthqut disrupting the whole organization has been a delicate and trying task, but Adjutant General Scott has given the matter his absorbing attention for many weeks. Every company and of ficer In the abolished regiments will be cared for In good shape. Georgia Is receiving annually from the national and state governments $97,000 to equip and maintain the mil itary organization.

(Copyright, j907, by Arthur w. Mnrchmont.) By ARTHUR W. MARCHMONT. Author of "By Riflht of Sword," “When I Was Czar,” Ete„ Etc. Synopsis of Previous Installment. Msrrld.w continues to question Olive .ml make, no secret of the (sot that he doubts her story. Karl becomea angry and threat- ens Mrrrlrtetv with a revolver. He Is over powered and dlaarmcd. Olive couaent. to tell Merrldew only her true story. The other* are »ent from the room. Olfve then goes clone to Merrldew nnd he recognises her. She threatens to tell the gang that he has taken her mllllout without ahartug with the other membnra. He acknowledges she ha* the advantage. Mie demands the surrender of the estate and dental of her father - * marriage to hla mother. Merrl- marrlage wns a fact. Olivo Is baffled. When she did not answer, he con tinued. ,"You aee, of course, what you have succeeded In doing. You have broken up all our plans; and If you leave here with all the knowledge you have gained, you wll certainly carry It to Mr. Fenwick. There Is thus nothing for us but to fly the country. It Is either that or your silence forever. You hare Imposed on this man Hart mann. Well, you have seen him and can Judge what he would be ready to do when he knew the truth”— She stopped him with an Impatient wave of the hand, much ae he had *1- lenced the others before. "You will not frighten me.” 'I am not trying. 1 can get you out of here In safety; but that will be at the risk of my own life. 1 can any that you have given me such valuable Information that I am taking you with to Investigate It. But then, where can you go?” and he tossed up hla hands again as If In perplexity. "It must be somewhere where you will be safe.” “I can take care of myeetf. I shall return to my lodgings.” ’But I must also be safe,” he replied. "A word to the detective In whose house you live, and what would be our chances of ei ^ do WRIB rather die than be Imprisoned. We must have at least three days to enable us to get clear away.” "I will go to Mr. Cnaement, and will not tell him a word tor the three days you name.” ••No. thank you. A lawyer Is as bad i a detective, or worse,” he said, bit terly. “It must be the house of some one who will undertake to see that you will hold no communication with any one outside of that time. Have you no friend In London who would promise that?" 'There Is Mrs. Taunton.” said Olive, unable to think of any one else. “She has expressed a wish for me to stay Ith her.” "And who I* Mrs. Taunton?" he asked, not a sign escaping Mm to show he had ever heard the name be fore. She Is an American widow, a friend of I.ord Bel borough.” 'Could you tell her enough of your story to Induce her to give her word to me on this point?” "She knows of my troubles." "Does she know my name?” he snap ped out, sur^clously. "Of course; and that your mother is the cause of my disinheritance.” ’No more. You must tell me the truth. Should 1 be safe In her house? I would rather It were some one who had never heard-of me." ■There Is no one else." . 'Then there is no alternative; risky as this seems to me.” And thus, with well-played assumption of reluctance, he yielded. '•! will deal with the oth- returned Olive curtly. “I am sure of that and rely on you. I know you are as true os you are brave. For three days you will not leave this Mrs. Taunton's house and will aee no one there, either. That Is the compact.” > "Yee; that !■ the compact. And, now. please let us talk no more.” It was a strange drive through the busy, bustling traffic, nnd Olive had much to occupy her thoughts. She hod won her victory and had saved her life, but In her greater object she had failed. This story of the old marriage was true, after all. Even In the face of cer tain death, as the alternative to tell ing her the truth, Merrldew had held to that. And It was Impossible to think he would have'done that did not he himself believe it. That thought was as bitter ashes be. tween her teeth and robbed her of all exultation In her victory. If he kept hie word—and she hnd the means of forcing him, of course—the marriage would be denied; hut she would only be living a false life after all. The fact remained, and It was the fart that burned Into her soul with a Are that would consume all hope of happiness. There was, of course. Just one obance ahead. It was possible that the mother had kept the secret from the son. He might believe It; but she might know Its falseness and still be forced to re veal It. It was hut small comfort, but It was sufficient to save Olive from total despair. As soon as the time of grace had expired, she would set to work on that discovery; and she regretted now that she had not from the first made her attack upon the mother Instead of Merrldew himself. Then all the com- j f iliations which might result from hei mpersonatlon of the German girl would have been avoided and precious time saved. She was In the midst of such thoughts os these when the cab stopped at the house In Markham street and roused her from her reflections. Merrldew got out and offered his hand to help her. but she avoided It. with a little shudder, and ran up the steps of the house without a thought of III consequences. Of all the Ideas which had flashed ncross her mind In that eventful night, the last to occur to her was that In escaping from the danger which threat ened her In the house In Clerkenwell. she had but stepped Into a net Infinitely more perilous and deadly, against the cruel meshes of which she would strug gle In vain.

TO NEXT MONDAY Centrifugal Pump Offered at Fraction of Verti cal’s Cost. The pump question Is gradually nearing an answer, and It Is now be lieved that council will act on the pur chase of a pump next Monday and Anal action will be taken by the alder- manic board Thursday, What kind of a pump It will be, or whose make, ns much a matter of uncertainty now as It was In the palm iest nnd most active days of Ihe "pump question.” The lowest bid for a centrifugal pump Is *39,000. The lowest bid for a vertl- | cal pump la (132,000, to which must be j added about *7,000 for a crane and dynamo. The total difference between le two pumps will reach fully 1100,000. The centrifugal pump people made a splendid showing before the sub-com mittee Tuesday, a representative of the General Electric .Company pointing out that the use of the centrifugal pump would mean not only an initial saving of *100,000. but a regular annual sav- Uig of from *2,800 to *7,000. The sub-committee met Tuesday morning at 11 o'clock and again Tues day afternoon at 3:30 o'clock and heard n representatives of practically all the bidding companies without reach ing any decision. Another meeting will be held Friday morning at 10 o'clock. ers,” he added, and then called them In. have eatlsfled myself,” he told them. "We have been absolutely wrong. know the names of the people who sent the Frauleln to Hartmann, and If I were to tell you you would nt once agree that we have unjustly suspected her. More than that, she has told me such Important news that I am going nt once with her to see Into It.” And he went on to describe whnt It was, making a very plausible tale. Karl Hartmann expressed his delight and was proportionately swaggering over his Rosa’s vindication and his own foresight, but Merrldew cut him short on the plea that no more tlma must be lost before he and Olive started. In the cab on the way to Mrs. Taun ton’s house Merrldew repressed every sign of exultation at the result of the arrangement between them and asked several questions about the American. Then he ventured upon a compliment In praise of Olive’s courage and daring. ”1 do not wish to hear your compli ments, Mr. Merrldew. You ran prove your sincerity, or your fear, by doing what you have agreed.” "You use the right word. It Is fear. I have never In my life before been beaten, but what you have done has only Increased Immensely my admira tion for you, although you may perhaps doubt me when I say It. You are the bravest woman I have ever known.” "Be good enough to spare me any thing like that.” "You have beaten me and you may at least let me tell you the truth. I snail never cease to think of you with pro found admiration." She let this pass In silence and pres ently lie entd: "You will give ms your solemn assurance that for the three days of grace you will not do any thing and will not breathe a word to any living soul of what has passed to night. or of anything you have learned this German girl."

The man who admitted Olive to Mrs. Taunton's knew Merrldew well enough, of courae, and told hla mistreaa who the visitors were; and she was thus well on her guard when she went to receive them. She knew that something very un usual must have taken place to bring them to the house together at such a time; but her astonishment was In tense when she saw Olive's disguise. She stared at her for the moment, as If not recognising her. I am In a little trouble, Mrs. Taun ton, and have come to you,” said Ol ive. "This Is Mr. Gilbert Merrldew, and something has happened tonight, of which I shall tell you more at another time, which necessitates my romalnlng very quiet for a day or two.” She paused, at a loss how to explain the situation. ”1 have, of course, heard of Mr. Mer rldew,” said Mr*. Taunton, very grave, ly. bowing to him as If she had never set eyes on him before that night. He returned the bow with equal gravity. "What you have hoard, madam. I* not likely to have been very fuvorable, 1 fear, If It has come from thl* young lady.” "To be candid, sir. It has not." He smiled nt this reply. "It Is a deep regret of mine that Miss Pnrmenter takes such a view. But the matter now Is thnt she has adopted her pres ent—er—dress In order to carry on some Inquiries. This has led her Into a very awkward predicament from which she has escaped—the result of n mutual arrangement between us—by agreeing to remain In a friend's house, seeing no one and saying nothing of what she has learned for three days. She mentioned you as some one likely to help her In this fix by pledging yotir word to me that she should remain with you for such a period under pre cisely those conditions.” Mrs. Taunton’s assumption of mount ing surprlas and concern nt this ex traordinary statement was excellent. "1 don't understand. It Is—Oh, I—Olive, my dear, what on earth does all this mean?” she cried. "What Mr. Merrldew say* Is correct, Mrs, Taunton. 1 wnnt a refuge under such conditions for three days.” "Of course, you can stay here, child, not only for three days, but for three years If you please; but you don't want j me to act as a sort of Jailer, surely?” Continued in Tomorrow’s Georgian.
