There was a slight bitch In tho work of removing bodies from the morgues through I he action of Coroner Htrasser forbidding the removal of any bodies during his ab sence. Thla was due to a mixup In the Identification of tho body of a boy. There wera three claimant for the body and all appeared before tho coroner for. permut ston i(t remove It.

When It was explained that people who had positively identified their dead wanted the bodies ml that bodies in dispute would be held the coroner rescinded his order.

TAFT TELLS OF CANAL' WORK Secretary 0f War Before Committee on tnteroceanic Canals. STEAME& SERVICE INSUFFICIENT taee Lack of Work for Panama Railroad and Mar End la Government Line of Vessels. WASHINGTON, Jan. m-Secretary Taft appeared before the senate committee on lnteroceanlc canals today and gave that committee Information concerning the pro ject and offered suggestions for legisla tion. He gave a complete review of the con ditions nt the canal site and quoted In formation he had received from various officials connected with the work. He expressed tho opinion that the canal should be completed within six years from next July and thatits ultimate cost would be approximately $300,000,000, Including the purchase price. Th proposed widening of the locks was carefully examined Into by Secretary Tatt. He asserted that with the locks widened to 110 feet a steamer of 108 feet beam could easily pans through. The largest ship this government Is planning to build will have a beam of 95 feet. The Increased cost of the locks, Mr. Taft estimated, would be about $5,000,000. In his talk to the committee. Secretary Taft at various points brought out the difficulties that beset the commission In the administration. These range all the way from trouble with the Pacific Mall Steamship line because of Its failure to furnish enough steamers, to labor difficul ties. He also spoke of the complaints by the Panamanians that there is a bad odor to the water that Is served to them through the new water works at Panama, as one of the- small, yet annoying features of the work. Transportation Problem. "In the matter of steamship transporta tion facilities on Wie Paciflo coast, the sec retary said that owing to their- inadequacy the business of the railroad had fallen off one-half since the government took posses sion and it was a question in his mind whether the government would not engage In the steamship business on the Pacific In order to retain the Panama route now existing and keep the Isthmian business from going by way of Tehuantepeo or some other route. "It may be a question," said the secre tary, "of saving the income for our steam ers on the east coast, by running con siderable risk on the west." Secretary Taft brought out considerable information concerning prices paid for labor on the canal and urged ttiat there be no reduction In the wAges paid to skilled laborers In splto of the fat that according to nis estimate they were receiving In nav and privileges from 60 to 80 per cent higher income than they could earn In the United States. Secretary Taft gave It as his opinion that any reduction at all would cause serious labor difficulties. Even with skilled labor at the present standard, he said, there was recently a arlke upon the refusal of the commission to Increase the wages and a force sufficient to run sixty five steam shovels was depleted to a force sufficient to run only thirteen. Llqnor Trade. Senator Flint put a number of questions to tho secretary as to land controversies on the Isthmus, the cost of sanitation and the advisability of the government run ning the Ttvoll hotel. In connection with the last named project ' the secretary thought It quite necessary for the govern ment to operate the hotel. There ought to be no further complaint from the native business In respect to liquor trade, as tho hotel had had its bar removed. The sec retary said the water rents charged Pan ama will in fifty years pay all cost of providing the water works, the Improve ment of streets and the construction of the sewerage system. At the end of that period the work will become the property of Panama. "If anyone doubts the condition of the streets of Panama," he said, "I will refer him to my friend, Poultney Bigelow." He was questioned by Senator Ankeny concerning the lepers at Panama and re sponded promptly that leprosy is always greatly exaggerated, citing his experience In the Philippines. "When we went to the Philippines," he said, "we were told that there were from 20,000 to 30.000 lepers. We have now 3,600 lepers that we know of there. During the last year the number has been reduced to 600." Kino Lepers In Zona. In Panama, he said, nine lepers wero known, and they have been Isolated on an Island, and there Is no fear on their account. They had adopted the policy of acting on the advice of tho doctors in all cases of sanitation and, said he, "Dr. Oorgas has proved so uniformly successful that we have felt justified in taking his advice In such matters." He declared that It Is not so unhealthful to live In the tropics as It wa formerly. Mr. Taft said the commission had found that the price placed upon land needed for the canal Is excessive and has no relation to Its value for private purchase. That has not delayed construction work, however, because the land is taken and paid for afterward. The government of Panama has offered to give the United States a site for a legation at Panama near the new gov ernment building being erected by the re public. He thought It would be advisable to provide a legation building that would bring the property wtihin the dignity of the United States In the future when the canal has been completed. Senator Flint wanted to know if this gov ernment could not with advantage sell all the land now owned by the Panama rail road company In Panama and not actually used for railroad purposes In order to re lieve the government of owning property there that Is used for Improper purposes. Hestrtetlons Demanded. Mr. Taft thought some of the land could be sold, and added that all th new leases provide that tho premises shall not b used for Immoral purpoaes. Including the use of saloons. Some of this land would be needed in the future for the railroads. Senator Kittredge asked Taf: whether lie had any rccoiiunendatlun for legislation In the canal mone. The secretary replied that he thought there should be an appeal from the courts of (he soie to the supreme court of the United Slates, but with the exception ho had no recommendations to make. After the canal has been completed he thought there should be a comprehen sive form of government devised for the lone, but he saw no reason for that now. "This year has satisfied me,"sald Mr. Taft. that a contract for doing the work on the Panama canal Is impracticable." He added that any firm able to supply the large amount of money needed to carry on the work would demand such a large profit as to make It Inadvisable to enter upon It. The committee adjourned until tomorrow when Colonel Goethals, chief engineer of th canal work, w ill be heard. Federation of Labor Officers. 8IOUX FALLS. S.

MUST TELL OF DEAL (Continued from First Page.) 'community of Interests, ' If any existing among them, 'tend to defeat' the purposes of the act." ' Government's Contention flood. Judgo Hough states that he considers Mr. Harrlman's position to the effect that the Union Pacific could, mortgage Its Inter state railway for what It pleased and .In vest the proceeds of the hypothecation In anything permitted byj the laws of Utah at prices and from vendors not open to investigation or criticism by the commis sion Is its own confutation, Inasmuch, from such premises, it must follow, says the Judge, that any interstate carrier created by state law may ruin itself through Im provident investment and become wholly unable to fulfill Us carrying functions. All questions, says the opinion, relating to the purchase of stock aro therefore within the purview of the resolution. The question relating to possible specu lation In Union Pacific shares seems, says the Judge, to stand In a different light. "The dividend had been declared, Its amount or rate ' Is .not-' in question, pre sumably It had been earned, but whether sdvisedly declared or hot the deed had been done and the corporate act completed. I do not see how the withholding of information from the public after divi dends declared tended to defeat the pur poses of tho act, or Impair the ability of the Union Taclflc to perform its duties as an interstate carrier.'.'.. ' Of the opinion Mr. Stlmson said: "I regard It as a sweeping victory. The one question concerning the dividend which Mr. Harrlman Is not directed to answer Is one lnwhlch we did not even expect to win." Stock Show and Sale. MITCHKLU 8. D Jan. M. (Special.)

Jones and Holden Tuesday. UNITED EFFORT WILL BE MADE Itetsll Merchants and Wholesale Im plement Men Are Counted On for VHelp In Landing This Great Exhibition. Omaha will take a step Tuesday toward securing the next National Corn associa tion's show for this city. A mass meeting of public spirited business men will be held that day ot the Commercial club for the promotion of this enterprise. Prof. R. G. Holden, "corn man" of the Iowa Agricul tural college, and Prof. J. Wilkes Jones of tho same Institution, who Is also secretary-treasurer of the national association, will meet with these men. Definite plans will he suggested on which it Is believed the convention can be secured for Omuha. Chicago held this convention last October In its Coliseum, and at least three objec tions have arisen to the proposition of re peating that exhibition. In the first place, Chicago Is not In the center ot tho corn belt, while Omaha Is; In the second place, October Is too early for the show, and In the third place, the Chicago Coliseum Is not adequate to the demands of such an exhibition. The sum total of these objec tions is that Chicago Is not popular for the next meeting place, and Omaha Is the choice ot a largo number of tho promoters. Omapa. in the center of the corn belt, with itg Auditorium, and the time set for No vember or December, are regarded as tho most suitable terms that could be sug gested. While the meeting Tuesday will not be held under' Commercial club auspices. It will be attended and supported by many leading members, of the Hub and Uio ex ecutive committee. Retailers are showing great Interest In the proposition'. Prominent downtown merchants and Implement men from the wholesale district are among the strong advocates. Implement Men's Conventions. The Nebraska Implement dealers will be holding their annual convention in Omaha about the time that will he set for the corn show next fall, and it is proposed to have the Iowa dealers, jkho meet about the same time, hold their convention In Coun cil Bluffs so as to be able to attend the show. These men are all deeply Interested in corn displays and will add great promi nence to one. Omaha men feel encouraged over the active support they aro receiving from both Prof. Holden and Prof. Wilkes, and they realize the fact that the latter's position as secretary-treasurer of the national as sociation will be a means of strength to them In landing the exhibition. All they need, they Bay, Is thorough co-operation at home and of this they feel certain. Prof. Holden was to have spent some time In Omaha Saturday In conference with T. F. Sturgess, editor of The Twen tieth Century Farmer, and other prime movers In this scheme, but while he will stop off here Suturday on a Journey he will not be able to tarry any length of time.
