More Slides At Culebra.

New York Times 100 years ago today, June 14, 1913:
One Practically Undoes a Month's Work by the Steam Shovel.
    PANAMA, June 13.— There has been increased activity in the slides in Culebra Cut during the past twenty-four hours. A new movement took place yesterday on the slide on the east bank of the cut, precipitating a large mass of earth and rock into the canal, and covering all the tracks on the east side, choking the drainage ditch, and overturning a steam shovel.
    This break now extends back to the upper terrace, and the level is cracked still further back.
    The Cucaracha slide started a fresh movement this afternoon, filling the cut to the 67-foot level and bringing in more material than the steam shovels excavated from it for more than a month past.
    Another slide which is likely to give serious trouble developed Thursday on the west bank of the canal, near Empire, where a mass of mud slid into the canal last year.
