Opening of Panama Canal Advances Amid Engineering Feats
Washington reports that a small vessel will pass from the Atlantic to the Pacific across the Isthmus in about six months after partial completion of the canal.

The canal Commission indicates progress is satisfactory and the opening date may be brought forward, with substantial expenditures already made and extensive harbor works underway.
