Lost French Canal Wreckage Prompts Scrapping Plan
Washington dispatch reports Taft and Shonts considering sale of wrecked French machinery along the Panama Canal route. Wasteful relics rust across the isthmus, with a launch rescued from Culet top now in use at La Bova. Duty and transport hurdles hinder removal and potential nonpayment of duties loom as a major obstacle.

The Dreadnaught Debate and Other House Actions
The article reports tense negotiations over a senate amendment to naval appropriation for a 20 000 ton battleship similar to the British Dreadnought. It notes fears of exposing navy secrets and delays from congressional review, plus a separate fight over fraud orders and judicial review favored by Crampacker but opposed by the post office department. It also covers organized labor's rejection of an anti injunction bill and judiciary committee delays.

London Sweat Shop Exhibit Highlights Labor Abuses
A London exhibition at the Queen's Hall reveals the harsh realities of sweatshop labor, exposing prices paid to workers under oppressive conditions. Sacks show repairs as low as 3s 4d per dozen and skirts finished for 8s per dozen, with sewing covers for bowling balls at 12d per dozen. The display aims to educate the public on the inhumanity of the sweat system and contrast with past reforms prompted by Berlin’s demonstration two years prior.
