ORIGIN OF THE TIDES,
The moon, a lady robed in white,
Rose oer the bosom of the sea, 3
And whispered : Take me! by thy might,
Embrace me, seize me, set me free
From endless bondage to the night !
The brave sea rose to do her will,
And tossed his pale arms high in air.
The deeps responded with a tarill
That shook far coasts and islands fair,
Yet the pale maid rode higher still.
The bold surge, wrestling with defeat,
Threw foaming kisses hign—in vain.
At last he sighed : Ah, lady sweet, :
Thou art too great ! But thou shalt reign
My queen. My heart shall rise to greet
The daily dancing of thy feet.

Ferdinand de Lesseps Sentenced to Five Years’
Imprisonment.—A Fine of Three Thousand
Francs is Imposed Besides.—Like Penalty In
flicted Upon. His Son, Charles de Lesseps.—
Cuttu and Fontane Get Two Years and the
Same Fine.—Eiffel to Go to Prison for Two
Years and Pay Two Thousand Francs.
Paris, Feb. 9—Ferdinand De Les-
seps and his son, Charles, have been
sentenced to five years’ imprisonment,
Cottu, Eiffel and Fontane to two years.
Such was the verdict in the Panama
trial. It has produced a striking effect
apon the public, who approve all the
other sentences but do not understand
that of De Lesseps senior.
Nobody can forget the role he has
played, or that it was he whom the pub-
lic voice named “Le grand Francais.”
All know that he has been deemed
worthy of every honor and glory. He
is a member of the French Academy, a
grand cross of the Legion of Honor, and
was for twenty years the real represen-
tative of France when he traveled
abroad.
And now he is condemned to five
years’ imprisonment, notwithstanding
his age of four score and eight, notwith-
standing the fact that his mental state
is such that he can never know of his
condemnation.
RECEIVING THE JUDGEMENT.
The other sentences appear to be just,
especially that of Eiffel, who, as has
been cabled during the trial, had public
opinion against him from the first.
‘When the judgment was read it produc-
ed a kind of stupor upon the barristers,
and the public crowded into the au-
dience chamber in the Palace of Justice,
especially upon those who looked for
the acquittal of De Lesseps.
As a natural consequence the ‘‘men
of law’’ do not hesitate to qualify the
judgment as having a political charac-
ter and being a consequence of yester-
day’s sitting 1n the Chamber, when all
the deputies appeared to monopolize
virtue at any price.
CHARGES AGAINST THE DE LESSEPS,
The charge of fraudulent proceedings
against Ferdinand de Lesseps, Charle de
Lesseps, Henry Cottu and Marius Fon-
tane was held to be proved. On this
point the judgment referred to the com-
pany’s methods in istuing loans, the
mendacious official bulletins and the
persistent puffing done by the papers at
the instance of the directors. These
practices, the judgment stated, when
not directly originated or indorsed by
the directors, had been connived at by
them. Ferdinand de Lesseps, aided and
abetted by hisson Charles, M. Cottu and
M. Fontane, had persistently concealed
the operations of tae Canal Company in
order that the quotations of shares
might not be affected unfavorably.
CRIME OF THE DIRECTORS.
The directors had dealt with under-
writing syndicates, which as far as their
utility was concerned were fictitious
and were known to be fictitious. In
underwriting loans these syndicates had
taken upon themselves no risks, and
yet they had received enormous sums
from the company. The expenses nec-
essarily attendant upon the issue of loans
had been grossly exaggerated by the di-
rectors and this exaggeration also con-
stituted a fraudulent act.
The ples of the defence that, despite
these fraudulent acts, the directors were
not amenable because the loan especial-
ly in quotation had not succeed:d, the
decision pronounced worthless in view
of the evidence that the directors had
not scrupled to expose the cupital of the
company to the risks involved in the
fresh issue and even reiterated their
promises to complete the canal with the
proceeds of the loan. By article 408. of
the code concerning a breach of trust it
was not necessary that the money should
have been misappropriated or squanner-
ed, or should have benefited the direc-
tors in order that they may be found
guilty. Their fraudulent intent was the
same, whether or not their purpose was
carried out. This intent was proved by
the fact that the sums paid to Baron de
Reinach, Hugo Oberndoerfer and others
could be regarded as having been sub-
scribed for the purposes to which they
were put.
M. EIFFEL’S BREACH OF TRUST,
In dealing with Gustave Kiffel’s
breach of trust the decision said that M.
Eiffel had received 120,000,000 francs
for the construction of ten locks and had
promis to complete them by 1890.
he evidence had shown that he had
not even purchased the specified mater-
ials necessary in ‘the construction of
these locks ; in fact he had bought in
France all told but 1,223,000 francs’
worth of materials. He had pretended,
furthermore, to fulfill the obligations he
had undertaken, while, in reality, he
was simply misappropriating the funds.
inconclusion Judge Perivier read the
sentence as given above.
THE PANAMA CANAL SCANDALS.
The history of the Panama Canal
begins with the arrival of MM. Wyse
and Reclus on the Isthmus during
1876-77, ‘under the auspices of the
Societe Internationals du Canal In
teroceanique. to explore a route for a
canal and procure from the Columbian
Government a concession for the con- |
struction of it. |
These men were two naval lieuten-
ants without much, if any, special qual-
ification for the work. Having paid
Panama, following pretty clcsely the
line of the Panama Railroad, which
they appear to have surveyed to their
own satisfaction and that of the Societe
between April 2 and 16, 1878, plus a
few days spent in looking about them
on the Pacific shore. So one may call
three weeks an ample allowance tor the
time actually occupied in studies of the
line levels, sections, character of ground
&ec , for the most stupendous engineer-
ing enterprise on record as having been
attempted within historic times.
M. Wyse went to Bogota and got the
concession, or rather the necessary
modifications to that which bad been
tentatively granted two years before.
He then returned to Paris and the de-
tails of the scheme upon which the en-
terprise was floated were matured from
the results of this expedition.
Up to this time M. de Lesseps had no
more to do with the Panama affair than
President Nunez had had to do with the
Suez Canal.
RAILROAD AND CANAL JOIN FORCES
Realizing that there was yet another
power besides Columbia to deal with ere
any practical achievement might be
hoped tor, namely, the Panama Rail-
road, M. Wyse went to New York ear-
ly in 1878 and approached the directors.
This resulted in a treaty by which the
railroad bounds itself to aid the canal,
and the canal undertook to buy out the
railway when the waterway was com-
pleted at the fancy price of £2,400,000
or $7.000,000 United States gold.
The last preliminary obstacle having
been removed from the path of the bold
projectors, M. Wyse returned to Paris
and the jubilant societe cast about for
the best means of carrying ‘hrough the
next step—advertising the concern thor-
oughly and cheaply. And with
the amiable assistance of the Geographi-
cal Society of Paris an advertising
scheme, excelled in magnitude only by
the enterprise itself, was set on foot.
This was the summoning of the Paris
Congress to consider and report on the
scheme as a whole.
Three hundred circular invitations
were 1ssued to “the most famous en-
gineers of the whole world to assemble
at Paris and to examine all the plans,
all the projects and all the materials
gathered by explorers concerning the
interoceanic canal.” To these only 100,
but “most eminent persons’ every one
of them, responded, some of their own
motion and some by direction of their
governments.
THE DEBUT OF DE LESSEPS.
It is here that M. de Lesseps comes
in, and here his responsibility begins,
whether the Congress was of his mak-
ing or not.
The Congress had reeched its decision
and dispersed, and de Lesseps, of Suez
fame, was to the front. But the Wyse
syndicate of promoters still held the key
to the situation, and without them the
man of Suez was impotent.
The result was that he proposed to
buy out the syndicate, and an agree-
ment was signed on July 5, 1879, the
terms being the yielding of the conces-
sion on condition that should a com-
pany be floated the syndicate was to re-
ceive cash out of hand to the amount of
$1,000,000 and an equal amount in
shares.
The swindling that hasjbeen the bane
of the enterprise, may be well said to
have commenced here, for the total ex-
penses of the syndicate to that date
barely topped $200,000, so that the pro-
fit on the outlay was enormous.
The advertisement had hit as never
did advertisement before, and with
characteristic anticipation De Lesseps
saw the canal an accomplished fact with
the merchant navies of the world
streaming through 1t.
A HITCH IN THE ENTERPRISE.
But he was soon brought to earth by
an unforeseen occurrence ; the company
would not materialize. Why? M.
Wyse asserts that it was because de Les-
seps went about organizing it the wrong
way, giving lectures wide of the subject
and deliberately dissembling as to the
work to be done and the difficulties to
be overcome.
Anyhow, something had to be done,
and this clearly lay in the direction of
advertising.
The sharks of the Paris press had not
yet scented the quarry that was destined
later on to drag them neck and crop in-
to Panama slush, and so an organ was
started to propagate the faith, knowa as
the Bulletin du Canal I[nteroceanique
The next move was de Lesseps’s
triumphant visit to Panama, like a sov-
ereigh surrounded by his courtiers.
The Commission Technique, with De
Lesseps in personal command, arrived
on the isthmus at the close ot December
1879, and began its work by accepting
and participating in a round of ovation-
al festivities that stands unparalleled in
the annals of Darlen, and that is saying
a great deal, when we remember what
Panama was in the old colonial days.
But they began to get down to serious
work on Jan, 5, when little Mlle. de
Lesseps turned the first sod and the Bis-
hop blended the blessings of Mother
Church with the generous foam of
champagne cup.
After a month's work, less a day, the
Committee of the Commission—that is,
the technical of the technical —began to
get up its report, which was completed
within ten days, the whole business be-
ing finished in forty days.
The conclusion to which De Lesseps
came was that ‘our work will be much
easier on the isthmus than in the desert
of Suez.”
WARNED BY A DESTRUCTIVE FLOOD.
From the 21st to the end of Novem-
ber, or just one month before the arriv-
al of the commission, a downpour of
rain unequaled within historic times,
even in the region of perpetual precipi-
tation, occurred, which flooded the in-
terior of the isthmus, let loose the river
Chagres, put a temporary stop to all
traffic, swept away much of the railway
and generally spread destruction over
the land.
It would surely seem that in the pres-
ence of an experience so. significant as
to be almost regarded as a kindly warn-
ing from Nature's self, and less blindly
enthusiastic body of ordinarily intelli-
gent men, let alone a “technical” com-
mission, would have based the ‘studies
for the execution of the canal’’ on the so
recently demonstrated maximum dan-
flving visits to the various previously
suggested routes from Nicaragua to the !
Atrato River, they seem’ to have in- |
stinctively dezided on that from Colon to
ger to be apprehended.
As a matter of fact, though, the com-
mission did nothing of the sort. For a
practical, common-sense point of view
they appear to have ignored and based
their studies on almost a minimum
which, eventually, De Lesseps himself
reduced yet further with the stroke of a |.
en.
h ‘With the object of taking advantage
of the bed of the lower Chagres they
run the axis of their canal through the
river, cutting its bed at twenty-five dif-
ferent points, the idea being to deviate
the waters of this mighty stream by a
system of side canal, called 7rigoles de
derivotion, which would leave the por-
tions of the bed utilized free for the use
of the canal.
But to carry out this scheme the Alto
(upper) Chagres had to be dealt with,
and in this connecting a dam was pro-
jected to be constructed at a place called
Gamboa, above Matachin, where the
Alto Chagres intersects the axis of the
canal at right angles and where the can-
sl finally takes leave of its terrible an-
tagonist.
This dam, 40 metres high and 1,600 |
long, to cost $20,000,000, was to form a
large lake to hold the river back and
regulate the flow of its waters through
the “derivations,” eventually discharg-
ing it in the Bay of Limon to the east of
Colon.
The ‘derivations’ were to cost $15,
000,000, so that ere any serious work
could be undertaken save at great risk,
a round sum of $35,000,000 should have
been expended upon the controling of
the Chagres.
ESTIMATES SLASHED.
At first DeLesseps told the commis-
gion ‘not to stint their estimates,” but
eventually, possibly having at a dis-
tance lost his keen appreciation of the
menace of the Chages, and being enthu-
siastically desirous of rushing the visible
work of the canal itself, he cut and cut
the original estimates until he had
knocked off $10,000,000.
Up to the present time of writing, as
the world very well knows. the installa-
tion of the canal works is complete ana
at least one-third of the excavations and
other cuttings done, but not one stroke
of work has been done on the controll-
ing dam and but few of the ‘‘deriva-
tions’ have been made.
It follows, theretcre, that the canal for
which M. de Lesseps and his advisers
have sacrificed so much of other people’s
money and their own reputations, hon-
or and probable liberty has been delib-
erately constructed at the bottom of a
vast natural line of drainage, and that
it is liable to annihilation at any time
the raintall should Focjplints a freshet
similar to that of 1879. The very found-
ations of the enterprise have been built
on sand, or mud, which is the same
thing.
“ENGAGEMENTS” IN
STATES
The story of his first efforts in this
direction is the story of his visit to the
United States, whither he proceeded from
Pavama, and the impression of master-
ly diplomacy he created must still be re-
membered by many.
THE COMPANY LAUNCHED.
Immediaiely after de Lesseps return-
ed from the New Worid he again essay-
ed to bring out his company, and this
time ‘it floated bravely, twice the
amount asked for having been subscrib-
ed by the close of the year 1880. In the
following March the first meeting of the
shareholders was held, and all went
merry as a marriage bell. The commit-
tee above alluded to reported thatall
the preliminary expenses so far incurred
amounted to a charge of but 83 per cent.
on the capital.
De Lesseps and his following bubbled
over with rosy promises and supported
them by conclusive arguments, for what-
ever apparent drawbacks there might le
was not he the Man of Suez? and so
the company was estublishea and the
work (omnmenced.
From that day forward the history ot
the enterprise may be summed up in
three words—waste, robbery, disaster,
And while the waste was going on at
Panama and the robbery in Paris, M.
de Lesseps, with an undaunted front.
met each new disaster on the ground
that “some talls are means the happier
to arise,” and time and again imparted
his own invincible enthusiasm to the
people of France and secured instalment
after instalment from their savings until
there was no more left and tha crowning
disaster of 1888 collapsed the glittering
bubble.
