‘The American End of. the
Great Panama- Scheme.
"II-IE EX-SECRETARY TELLS OF
HIS DOINGS.
‘Knew Nothing of the Big Bank
Payments.
Tarzan HAUTE, Ind., Feb. 21.—-From 10
o’clock until 1 p. m. yesterday Col. 3. W.
Thompson sat propped in an invalid's
with the Panama Canal to the Congres-
. sional Investigation Committee. Col.
Thompson told how he had been selected
as President 0‘! the American Committee.
The ex- Secretary then detailed the cir-
cumstances of his resignation, saying it
was publicly done and that he met no opi
position from President Hayes when he
approached him regarding the matter.
The first offer of the American chairman-
ship was made to him by Jesse W. Selig-
man in 1880, and was not accepted until
after a conference with friends and the
President and determination on his part
that there was nothing in it inimical to
the interests of the United States.
It was with the approval of President
Hayes that he resigned from the Cabinet
to take the position. His salary was fixed
at $25,000 a year. He never knew until
recently that Gen. Grant had declined
the position, nor did he know that the
three New York bankers received in all
$1,200,000 in salaries. If he had he would
not have volunteered to surrender half
his salary in the last year of his Presi‘
dency. He said he considered it his pro-
Vvince to look after the interests of the
canal in general ways, and that he never
authorized the expenditure of any money
except the $20,000 a year for the Commit-
tee’s expenses, which was exclusive of
his salary. ,
