McDonald Looms as Key Panama Canal Syndicate Builder
John B. McDonald, cited as leading spirit behind a Panama canal syndicate, is described as a premier world wheat contractor. He built New York subway tunnels for 36 million, the Jerome Park reservoir, and major rail and city projects, while remaining a longtime ally of Richard Croker and a former New York political figure. Admiral James G Walker heads the anticipated presidential canal commission, with a career navy record and long study of canal issues. Lady Sibyl Primrose, daughter of Lord Rosebery, remains unmarried despite earlier rumors. Charles William Pulteney, newly elected U.S. Senator from Oregon, is highlighted as a prominent public figure. The Kaiser’s offense by Bebel is noted as shaping European political paths, and William Hudson of Chicago is profiled as a veteran carpenter and unionist leader. The piece ends with a note on the consolidation of the Commercial Telegraphers under a new banner in Baltimore.
