and is today closeted in conference
with the directors and supervisors of
the hotel company in regard to making
certain contemplated changes in the
construction of the hotel building.
President Kempner of the hotel com-
pany, while declining to say just what
changes were under contemplation,
stated that the directors were seriously
considering two changes and that even
three changes might be made in the
plans. Many rumors have been heard
upon the streets of an additional story,
making the new hotel eight stories
high, of a private bathhouse and
changes in the boiler and engine room
quarters in the building.

hotel company, stated a few days ago
that if any changes were made they
would be toward increasing the size of
the structure.

will be altered but the remaining su-

if any are made. At present the foun-
dation centers of concrete set upon 900
piling are all in and the work of wall
making has progressed as far as the
level of the first floor. Contractor Hoff-

next week to rush the work that now
has 200 men busily engaged on the
hotel.

A telegram received this morning by
Maj. George P. Howell, United States
engineer in charge of this district,
from “Commodore” E. M. Hartrick, in
command of the expedition on the
Brazos de Santiago survey, confirmed
the story published in the Tribune last
evening that the members of the en-
gineering corps had weathered the gulf
disturbance.
The message was brief, merely citing
that all members were safe and were

Photo postals and other photographs
have been received from A. F. Symms,
a former Galvestonian in the service of
United States engineers depart-
ment, now master of dredge 83 in the
big ditch, better known as the Panama
canal. Mr. Symms, who is stationed
at Gatun, has won an enviable reputa-
tion as an amateur photographer and
owns one of the finest collections of
pictures of the canal and scenes and
places in and about the canal zona, tie
owns a valuable photographing and de-
veloping outfit and frequently sends
pictures to his friends in Galveston.
Among the latest pictures is that of
the “owl faced” butterfly, found on the
canal zone. The butterfly grows to
an immense size, from ten to twelve
inches from tip to tip of wing,
back to a reproduction of an
face, perfect in coloring even to the
eyes and so realistic that the birds
will not attack it. The birds imag-
ine it is an owl and are afraid of it.
Think of the big birds fleeing from a
harmless butterly. It is said the but-
terfly knows it has the bluff on the
birds and takes every opportunity to
frighten the birds away from their
haunts.
Details and progress of work on the
canal are photographed. Assistant En*
gineer Sam Wilcox of Maj. Howell’s of-
fice in Galveston has just received pic-
tures of certain sections of the canal
taken by Mr. Symmes.
