SEES CAHAL II HEAVY RAII
PRESIDENT VIEWS WORK FROM
A STEAM SHOVEL.
Plies Engineer with Details Regard
ing Work and Pries Into
Every Corner.
Panama. Squatting on s dec
orated steam shovel inya heavy
rain, President Roosevelt "Friday
watched the giant engines digging
tons of mud, and later saw dynamite'
blasts tear into the walls of the Cule
bra cut.
The president's energy took him .In
to every kind of corner, which the ac
companying guards tried in vain to
keep him out oL All the dynamite had
been, locked up to prevent the chance
that an anarchistic workman might
heave a stick of the explosive under
the wheels of the president's train,
but these orders were peremptorily,
countermanded by the executive, who
wanted to see things In actual opera
tion: "He 'saw them.
At 8:30' o'clock the presidential
train arrived at Pedro Miguel, where
some steam shovels were at work.
They were all decorated. The presi
dent had his train stopped for the
purpose of making a personal examin
ation. At this point in the cut the peculiar
soil conditions have resulted in more
or less frequent landslides, and this
fact was brought., to the. president's
attention
President Roosevelt descended from
his train and climbed up on one of the
steam shovels, taking a seat along-1
side Engineer Gray, whom he subject
ed to a searching, fire of, questions re
garding the work.' During his conver
sation Engineer Gray took the oppor
tunity, on behalf of himself and the
other engineers,, to declare that unlike
the .railroad engineers, they were not
paid for overtime. The ' presideat
promised to look into this matter. He
stayed on the steam shovel about 20
minutes. By this time it was raining
hard.
President Roosevelt told Chief En
gineer Stevens that he wanted to see
all the works in connection! with ex
cavation even to the temporary laying
of tracks. With this in view he board
ed a work train near Dedro Miguel
and weat on to the next point where
steam shovels were at work. Here
there was no danger of landslides.
The presidential train continued on
the regular line toward Panama. The
work of the second steam shovels was
observed and the president made ,a
detour to examine the site of the Ped
ro Miguel lock.
He shook hands, with all the Amer
icans he met while walking over the
ground.

an official list of the killed In the
wreck at Woodville, InL, last Monday

pital by friends of the two men who,
they say, wished to leave the city and
continue on their Journey to the north
west Both men, it Is said, suffered
Only slight cuts about the face and
hands aad were satisfied with the set
tlement. On account of the heavy death roll
of the wreck the Iadiana state rail
road commission has decided to take
action, and representatives will be
sbnt to Woodville to make an investi
gation. The commission will probe
the charges that the cars of the
wrecked train were aot ap to the
standard or equipped with air brakes.
The railroad officials deny that the
train was without air brakes.
