GATUN LAKE CAN MEET ALL DEMANDS Main Dependence of Panama Canal Proves Ample After Most Severe Test. ‘Washington, July 18.—Resources of Gatun lake, the wonderful artificial reservoir which is the main depen- dence of the Panama canal for its wa- ter supply, have proved ample to meet all possible demands, after the most severe practical test. Although the amount of water which ran into the lake during the last dry season— January to April inclusive—was less than in any similar period for the past twenty-two years, being only 61 per cent. of the normal collection, the lake was maintained at its proper ele- vation throughout that period. The dry season afforded the first opportunity engineers had to deter-. mine the amount of evaporation from the surface of the lake at its full depth. The figures showed that there was still sufficient water at the end of the dry season to have kept the lake level at 79 feet above sea level, which would have given 39 feet of water in Culebra Cut, or about ten feet more than the draft of the big- gest battleship. At the end of the present rainy sea- son, Gatun Lake will be 87 feet above sea level and, allowing for the known evaporation, leakage and seepage this would be ample for forty-one pas- sages daily through the locks, using them at full length or about 58 lock- ages a day when partial length is used as generally would be the case. This is a larger number of lockages than would be possible in a single day. Even in the great Sault Ste Marie canal the lockages last year averaged 41.7 while the Suez canal reported only 12 per day. This assurance of an ample water supply to meet all possible contin- gencies, including the heavy drafts for power purposes, affords great sat- isfaction to Panama canal engineers, especially in view of deubts expressed in foreign countries as to the success- ful operation of the canal in the dry season. HIT BY AUTOMOBILE. Greenwich, July 18.—Tony Petrone, a gardener for Commodore George | Lauder, was struck and badly hurt by an automobile driven by Charles | Weeks of Riverside today.

(Spectal to the Hersld.) ‘Washington, July 18.—Speaker Champ Clark has accepted the invi- tation of the Connecticut State Fair association, tendered vesterday through Congressman Lonergan, to attend the fair on Labor day and de- liver an address.
