CONDITIONS O-V JHE ISTHMUS. , For ten days past a communication br M- FouTtney Bigelow, a wetl ' known, writer, in The Independent, of New Twit, arraigning, in harsh terms, tb Atnerlca.ii administration on tha Isthmus of Panama, which he profess es to have visited, and giving alleged instances of mal-admlnlstratlon, to .getner with a reply by Secretary Taft. w'.A'"'drewa to the. President and bv the latter transmitted to Congress, has oc- cupied a large share of public atten tion. 't, Below are extracts from Mr. : Bigel&w arraignment: . ! i-On landing at Colon I started for a r 'strell of Inquiry and soon fell into con--, - Tcrration with a splendid specimen of , ' f manhood,' a negro such as would hnve ' tesn recruited with pride Into the Tentli Unite States Cavalry. He said that he ' .;' was trying to get back to Jamaica. He ? was a alck man, could walk with dlffi culty, bla system weakened by malarious ", fever. . . r ."'Naturally I expressed surprise that ha Should be returning to Jamaica when lho of Colon was for negro labor! Ho , ; aatd he came here for work, but had been "" deceived he found the place unfit to II vn -ti Wi he found that the wages which had v 'jheen promised to him, I1.S0 in gold, were - i ptM m silver equsi to m cent!); no touna , , that these wages were not paid punc tOSlly, but after two weeks, and some to and determine the character of the engineering difficulties , of thet ' greatest constructive enterprise yet andertaken by man, the efficiency of tropical negro labor, the hetalthfulness of a city, the proper place to put dredges," etc, etc Doubtless before this great. work Is completed there Will be If .there has not already been' a' great deal of mis management, stealing, and of every' thin else tftat Ought' foot to be: r but yet It is great national undertaking and It Is not the part of good citizen ship t hinder f it unnecessarily .by half-baked and unwarranted' criticism of tboae who are ih charge of it and may be honestly doing their best. 1 At all events.. it doesn't tost any more to tell the truth about it and Irt this In stance It la clear that Mr. Peultney Bigelow does not ' know what be vis talking about Secretary Taft and En- glneer Stevens say that he was on the Isthmus, day and night, only twenty eight hours, and. this be has not de nied. He has said that "It would1 be a reckless father who would advise a son to take employment on the canal sone," To localise the discussion U may bo said that a young man , of Charlotte has been on the sono for several months; bis bride following, him after he had been there a few weeks, and that a young man of western North Carolina has been there but a little less time, and that all find conditions agreeable , and are satisfied. This Is in the nature of direct evi dence that Mr. Poultney Bigelow has not written the truth.

' ",T asked him why he did not -nil on tho " morrow rather than wait five days for a Jjerland steamer; he answered me that " aha neat steamer was already crowded with 'deckers and he could not afford " any but a deck passage, having used up .veil of his money by reason of his fever. 'And indeed the Jamaica negro spoke truth tha steamer which sailed next " day took away 400 Begroes. ail returning ? to Jamaica in disgust." V Wtt Bigelow gives other Instances to e)how Why laborers are so dissatisfied ;n (the Isthmus, and describes Colon as ' J swamp end a stench, a brecdlng- Y place of disease. Pools and green ' ajlme Are everywhere; so-called houses 1 are surrounded by them; the so-called 1 streets sre stretches of ooze. A sew "","; system is unknown. Filth is everywhere. Here Is an incident as he 'j narrates it: " .'One day I stopped to chat with a well dressed, intelligent and enot-gotlc negro " who was managing a gang of fellow Af ricans In a street near the American postoffle. They were digging up the N street,' He was encouraging his men. and t i( they answered lilm cheerily. They ob- viously liked him. and worked well under , , ,'Wm. Me wore a clean collar, a black derby hat and a good suit of clothes an educated and prosperous sample of hla V , race. He told me that be had hewn hern seven months from Jamaica, end was ' doing the best to deserve promotion. Tim , cost of living was high and the wages 4 not as much as he had been originally v ' promised, but his main grievance was I,. that as a man of color ha received no en ( eouragetnent for hl work; no one eem , ; 'A ed to care whether he got good work out VDf hi men or not all the white men i , J about him were trying to ee how little , ' they could do, each for hlmaelf '' t '"Next day I came to the same place for ;( another chat. He was not there. A . white man wanted hla job and had got it. ' That white man was sitting on the r urb- stone, looking more like a worthing , tramp than a foreman. His head had -p-Vtmk between his knees and he wan In a . i. A"omfortable dose. The gang of negrorn - bad also lort all Interest in their work f. t and were llatlessly seeking to emulate the example of their so-called foreman " " Jf- tlThere fs much more to the same pur- .fjose, followed by comments of which f'Ji these are a few: V- -JTTeare practical men let u therefore . i profit by the experience of our predecen ....gors, " -The practical man doea not build a ho - tel'ln a swamp; he make Inqulrli-s and Hoes not select a nlte whf-re fever Is the cV s tnala erop. $ f-" " IThS practical man dralni hlf helda be i t foe invltlnj his friends to build liomca j K A-practicai man woold have dm fried Co Ion before permitting 10,000 negron to gettle there, i-' fXJi practical man would imniPdlntely J lake those nearoea away from iliat ' atnp, where they ar loalng their ' ? wtrsngtb, and locate them In t,.,m neighboring lillla CAPS HUE CXIMAX. A North Carolina gentleman, a grad. uate of Annapolis, refers, In a busi ness letter to The Observer, to a re cent editorial in this paper on the subject of basing at the Naval Acad emy, and advises it to "reef or com pletely furl its sails in that storm," continuing: "These government schools. West Point and Annapolis, are very distinct apd sep arate from such schools as Tate, Prince ton, Chapel Hill, etc. A reasonable haz ing at Annapoiia is not only beneficial, but absolutely eaaentlal : to the new comers. They must be taught to obey as the first lesson when they enter that academy, and the third classmen are the onus, tho only ones, who must teach them that lesson. . . . The training to stand on one's bond, when a plebo, in obedience to orders of the superior, Is JuKt ns nect'BHttry ns the knowledge of astronomy to navigate the ship." ' - Weill "That," as Mr. Montague Tlgg remarked on one occasion, "beats any amount of cock-fighting with which I am acquainted. " The new cadets must be taught to obey, when they enter the academy, "and the third classmen are the ones, the only ones, who must teach them that lesson." The ignorant have an Idea that that Is a duty of the officers of the institution. But the foregoing Is not half as rank as the second propo Ition, that "the training to stand on one's head, when a plebe, In obedience to orders of the superior" Is a neces sary part of tho curriculum the "su. pcrlor" in this case being a callow lledgllng who happens to be two class es ahead or his victim. Ever bear anything to equal It since you were born? It may be remarked Incident ally that standing on his head is a youthful accomplishment which the average American learns before he be comes qualified for Annapolis, but he acquires it of his own motion and don't persist in the performance any longer than he wants to. Our friend has not been Inadvertent to the fact that recently a cadet lieu tenant In citizen's drcsa entered a theatre at New Haven, Conn., with a puny which was given seats next a sergeant In uniform. The lieutenant ordered the sergeant to change hla scat and the latter obeyed. It has developed during the pres ent inquiry at the academy "that If a fourth-clan man be present when a flrat-clHRH man calls on a girl, the for mer Is required to leave at once and without apology, "and," to quote, a contemporary, "If a girl whom a first class arlatocrat condescends to visit should insist on receiving calls from a fourth-dan man she Is ostracised."
