There were two asreements made, one under date of October 24, 1891, and the other under date of March 2, 1892, and both signed by Mayor S. Ashbel: Cran- dall for the ¢ity and Henry H.

Mr. Tracy showed a chart pointing out the various points of special interest in the vicinity of the istomus. Mr. Tracy started from the Atlant:, describing the various interesting points ail along the canal. The Cule- bra cut, he said, is golng through the Icwest point in the chain of mountains and at this point the land was 312 fer above sea level. The excavations go down a distance of about feet. leaving the bottom of the canal soms 45 feet above the sea level. One is impressed with the magnitude of the work when one stands upon the edge of the cut and looks down throughout its entire length. One hundred and fifty trainloads of earth are carried out | of the cut each hour. The cut is abour 1000 feet across at the top, 300 fesc ai the bottom and 500 feet at the water line. We arrived the day aft:.c |the great slide. From the formatlon | of the lana there will always be land- | slides ana when the canal is com pleted there will be two dredges ready {for action at all times, to keep the | canal clear. These dredges cost $500, | 000 each. Four of the dredges which are at work excavating now, each lifts | seven tons of earth at one scoop. The earth is loaded on to cars and carriel away. In unloading there is a huge shovel, shaped something like a plow- share, which runs on a cable ani sweeps the dirt off a whole train of | cars at one stroke. Tt is about 50 miles from deep water In the Atlantic to deep water in the Pacific and all along the way are scenes of interest. Panama a panish SCity.
