LOCK IL, Washington, Feb. 19. —President Roosevelt today submitted to Congress the following are the facts: their failure to pay proper heed to tjie lessons taught by the construction and operation of the Soo canal. I call espe cial attention to the fact that the chief engineer, who will be responsible for the success of this mighty engineering feat, and who has therefore a peculiar personal interest in judging aright, is emphatically and earnestly in favor of the lock canal project and against the sea level project. “A careful study of the reports seem to establish a strong probability that The sea the report of the board of control of consulting engineers on the Panama canal with the letter of Secretary Taft, the report of the isthmian canal com mittee and a letter by Chief Engineer Stevens. The letter of the President says: “The secretary of war recommends a lock canal pursuant to the recom mendation of the minority of the board of consulting engineers and of the ma jority of the canal committee. “After careful perusal of the papers submitted and a full and exhaustive consideration of the whole subject, I concur in this resolution. . It will be noticed that the engineers on the con sulting board and on the commission by a more than two to one majority favor the lock canal, ivheveas the for eign engineers are a unit against it. I think this is partly to be explained by the fact that the great traffic canal of the old world'is the Suez canal, a sea level canal, whereas the great traffic canal of the new world is the Sault Ste Marie canal, a lock canal. Although the latter is closed to navigation during the winter months, it carries annually three times the traffic of the Suez canal. In my judgment the very able argument of the majority of the board <if. consulting engineers is level canal would be slightly less ex posed to damages in the^vent of war; the running expenses, apart from the heavy cost of interest on the amount employed to build it, would be less; and for small ships the time of transit would probably be less. On the other hand, the lock canal at a level of eighty feet or thereabouts, would not cost much more than half as much to build and could be built in about half the time, whereas there would be very much less-Tisk connected with building it, arid for large ships the transit would be quicker; while, taking into account the interest on the amount saved in building, the actual cost of mainten ance would be less. After being built, it would be easier to enlarge the lock canal than the sea level canal. “The law now on our statute-books seems to contemplate a lock canal. In my judgment a lock canal as herein recommended is advisable. If the Congress directs that a sea level canal be constructed its direction will, of course, be carried out. Otherwise the canal will be built on substantially the plan for a lock canal outlined in the accompanying papers, such changes be ing made, of course, as may be found actually necessary, including possibly the change recommended by th< LI3EL FOR DIVORCE.

Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 20.—Members of the county police forcte are at work trying to solve the mystery which sur rounds the finding by James Linn, a;, white man who resides in the vicin ity of Bolton, of a’ large pickle bottle containing the body of a white baby. The sealed bottle was found on the banks of the Chattahoochee river. All efforts to get light on the ghastly find have resulted unsuccessfully. The coroner has ordered the body buried. Afraid of Strong Medicines. Many people suffer for years from rheumatic pains, and prefer to do so rather than take the strong medicines usually given for rheumatism, not knowing that quick relief from pain may be had simply by applying Cham berlain’s Pain Balm and without tak ing any medicine internally. Rev. Amos Parker, of Magnolia, North Car olina, suffered for eight years with a lame hip, due to severe rheumatlo- pains. He has been permanently cured by the free application of Cham berlain’s Pain Balm. For sale by Hils* man-Sale Drug Co.
