Excerpt from The American Inter-Oceanic Canal: An Historical Sketch of the Canal Idea The Chairman Ladies and Gentlemen: this last session of the Panama Pacific Historical Congress will be distinguished by the reading Of a paper on The American inter-oceanic Canal: an Historical Sketch Of the Canal Idea, by Mr. Rudolph J. Taussig, Secretary of the Panama Pacific International Exposition. Mr. Taussig will tell the story Of the idea Of making a canal. It is practically the same thing as the history of the idea of making the Panama Pacific Canal, which opens a new era in the history Of the Pacific Ocean. I have the aid on the platform here Of two distinguished dele gates, one from Spain and the other from Japan. During his presence at the Congress, by many speeches and in many ways, Professor Altamira has endeared himself to those who are responsible for this Historical Congress. Professor N. Murakami has, in the excellent paper he read today at palo Alto, shown that the new land Of Japan is as interested in things Of the Pacific Ocean as the Old land of Spain. TO support them two former presidents Of the American Historical Association, Professor Turner, Of Harvard University, and Professor Jameson are here present. A little later we are to be favored by another former president of the American Historical Association, who, while he has written history, has also made it, and who has promised to be present shortly to tell us how he made the Canal, which Mr. Taussig will trace from its original idea.

Excerpt from The American Inter-Oceanic Ship Canal Question Circumstances which occurred nearly a quarter of a century ago, briefly mentioned in the following paper read before the American Geographical Society of New York, fixed my attention on the question of the possibility of the construction of an inter-oceanic ship canal across this continent. Owing to the approaching struggle into which we soon passed, and the perturbation which preceded and followed it, no possibility of making further explorations Occurred for years. In the early part of the winter of 1866 I was in Washington, in command of a vessel of war. At my request, rear-admiral Chas. H. Davis, Superintendent of the Naval Observatory, prepared a map on a large scale of the narrow part of this continent for General Grant, with whom I had the pleasure Of discussing what was then known and what was still in doubt respecting the topography of that region. This led to one or more visits to Mr. Seward, then Secretary of State, whose reception of the subject of making further explorations at that time made General Grant averse to seeing him further in relation to this matter.

Excerpt from Report on Interoceanic Canals and Railroads: Between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans The following report is made under the direction of the Hon. Secretary of the Navy, in compliance with a resolution of the Senate of the United States, dated March 19, 1866, which resolution reads as follows: "Resolved, That the Secretary of the Navy furnish, through a report of the Superintendent of the Naval Observatory, the summit levels and distances by survey of the various proposed lines for interoceanic canals and railroads between the waters of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans; as, also, their relative merits as practicable lines for the construction of a ship canal, and especially as relates to Honduras, Tehuantepec, Nicaragua, Panama, and Atrato lines; and also whether, in the opinion of the Superintendent, the isthmus of Darien has been satisfactorily explored; and if so, furnish in detail, charts, plans, lines of levels, and all information connected therewith, and upon what authority they are based." The object of this inquiry is to collect and collate our existing information concerning the several isthmuses through or over which it has been proposed to open a communication between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. It is the aim of the Honorable Senator, Mr. Conness, of California, to acquire by the answer to his resolution, such accurate knowledge with regard to the whole question as will, in the first place, prevent the re-examination of any ground which is already sufficiently known; and, in the second place, will prevent any useless expenditure of money upon schemes that are infeasible or unpromising. The resolution is properly divided into two general heads, which are again subdivided as follows: I. The consideration of the "various proposed lines, will include - "Summit level;" "Distances by survey;" and "Their relative merits as practical lines for the construction of a ship canal, especially for the Honduras, Tehuantepec, Nicaragua, Panama, and Atrato routes." II. The inquiry, "Has the isthmus of Darien been satisfactorily explored," calls for - "Charts;" "Plans;" "Lines of levels, and information therewith;" and "Authorities on the whole subject." In conference with the mover of the resolution, I have ascertained that I shall execute the task assigned me in the most acceptable manner, if I confine myself to a simple statement of facts, avoiding all unnecessary descriptions, whether of geography, topography, or natural history, all scientific details not required for a full comprehension of results, and all merely speculative opinions.

Excerpt from An American Isthmian Canal and the Choice of Routes: Speech of Hon. John T. Morgan, of Alabama, in the Senate of the United States, April 17, 1902 In bringing the subject of an isthmian canal to the attention of the Senate in advance of the consideration of the subject by the vote of this body it is not my intention to discuss the merits of the measure passed by the House of Representatives and reported, without amendment, by the Committee on Interoceanic Canals, as a national or commercial question.
