Secretary Lansing Orders Investigation tf Reports c! 60,008 Acre Land Concession. i Washington, Aug-.. 21. Inves tigation of reports from Panama that a 60 000 acre land concession at the Atlantic end of the canal is being sought by a Spaniard named Fernandez, presumably for Japanese interests, was order ed today by Secretary Lansing. Mr. Lansing refused to discuss the report in detail but the action was considered significant. Rumcrs of a similar nature ia-ve been common ever sisce tbe canal was well under way. . Several months ago it was commonly be lieved in diplomatic circles that private Japanese shipping- in terests were seeking land throu Spanish intermediaries to estab lish a base lor stenng coal at lower rates than could be bad from the American Government monopoly base. So far as known nothing definUa came of that plan. The present reports are that Fernandez is seeking or has al ready secured a 60,000-acre land concession through the activity or Kamn Valtz, whose recent election to the' presidency of Panama may possibly be disputed by the United States because of alleged frauds and coercion. Admiral Concas of the Spanish Navy, selected by the Panama government as umpire to settle tke dispute with the - United States over the purchase price "of oaal property, is alleged to have given some very valuable inf orma tion about the canal itself.
