fore the British public for the imme- diate construction of an electric mono rail line between Manchester and Liv- erpool, which is to develop speed of between no and 12O miles per hour.
 Some years ago it was proposed to build a monorail air line between Chi cago and St. Louis, but the project was allowed to die out. Should the English line prove success, however and there is no scientific reason why it should not-the world would have to adopt the monorail system for rapid passenger service, in spite of the croakings of the hidebound conserva- tives. The public has ample reason to be interested in the monorail, be- cause the saving in the cost of original construction and subsequent ma1nten- ance would make elevation not only possible, but advisable. It would do away with grade crossings and the

CERANGE as it may seem at this o season of the year, there is re-
 markable amount of speculation among college men as to the men who will referee and umpire the great football games of 1901. While it is true that schedules are made many months in advance of the actual play ing season, coaches are selected some times at the end of gridiron season for the ensuing year, and summer va cation work in bunting and other light practice is demanded of some of the gridiron aspirants, the young athletes who are to shine in football games in the fall give a comparative ly small portion of their time to thoughts of the barred field when the sun is beating down with all of the ferceness of the hot weather sea- son. It is the coach-the director of athletics at a big university who has to devote time that he might be spending at some summer resort ang- ling or just loafng to plans for the fall month.
 Speculation upon the makeup of football squads for 1901 has not gone beyond the regular guessing match" It will not be developed in earnest un- til the athletes have returned to school after the summer holidays. But in the matter of officials for the coming big contests, there is a de- cided drift of op1nion. Easterners who follow college football have made up their minds that they will see on the gridirons this fall one of the most popular athletes in Ameri- can college history-Robert D. Wrenn, the former tennis champion and Harvard alumnus. Bob" is told nearly every day by New Workers that he is giving too much time to business, but that when the football season opens he will be kept busy umpiring or refereeing games. When this well-known football rule maker, official and gridiron diplomat moved to the east, the west was deprived of an official who would have been chosen for every big intercollegiate contest he could have found time to blow the whistle in. But this former star baseball man, champion tennis player and thoroughly efficient foot ball athlete will be in great demand on the gridirons of the east
 Aside from "Bob's" general knowl- edge of the fine points of the game, his quickness of observation, his de- cision and his easy control over the hard-worl<ing athletes, his evenness of temper and his high position in the esteem of players and the entire following of the football world make him the ideal official.
 It will be Bob Wrenn and r adf Dashiel in many of the greatest grid iron struggles of the year, or the framers of schedules for referees and umpires will be greatly mistaken. Of course there will be games in which Harvard will play that, obvi- ously, Bob Wrenn will not appear in. While 10 friend of true sports manship will say that Wrenn would favor Harvard, it is not likely that the crimson alumnus would consent to act as an official. Eagerness to be absolutely fair might incline him to the severe side when Harvard's in
The weekly examiner., 1901-08-31

terests were at stake. But Matthew McClung, Jr., whose work last fall was of high order, may be an of fcial second in demand to Bob Wrenn. Dashiel seems to be foot ball fixture in the east. Western men who have seen his iating say that they do not understand the secret of his success in the east. It is even said that he is not strict on the field. Before the game he will address the elevens and threaten all sorts of dire penalties and removals from the con- test, and then he will permit the game to continue without imposing those penalties.
 Another of the famous Wrenn fam fly, Everts Wrenn, also a star tennis player-lately he has risen to high place among the golfers-and one of iron, on which he formerly assisted in bringing glory to his alma mater, is surely counted upon to do the um- piring in the important western foot ball games this fall. Time was when a coach or manager or captain of a football team rested easily upon hearing that the Wrenn brothers would officiate in some big contest. While admittedly a stickler for the finer points of the rules, Everts Wrenn knows no favorites and makes the iron clad observance of the rules his slogan. The criticisms that have been made of his work as an official have always been. such that they ra- founded to the credit of the man.
 'I may seem strict-perhaps too st1'ict-in holding the team to the strict letter of the rules,' said Everts Nrenn one day, '.but the only way to

Already There Is Talk of the Coming Football Season

keep the game the most popular of it's kind in the land, the only way to maintain it's place as the highest type of athletic competition, is to de- mand honest observance of the rules. The latter are made by men who have devoted much time to the study of football and are for the best in- terests of the game and it's players. Surely the coach who would win a game on the merits of his men and their efficiency in executing the plays and tricks he has taught them, should be the last man to complain of the strict enforcement of the rules of the game"
 College men are discussing the coup of the University of Illinois in getting a trainer of championship aterial, before the actual hard work of the gridiron season begins. George Huff, the veteran leader of the athletes at the state university, has long had his. eye on Trainer Hiram B. Conibear, of the University of Chicago. Displeased with the man who was doing the training at Cham paign, not only Huff, but the football coaches and candidates sang a re- frain which was something like this:

firm of contractors. The Englishmen, who in this deal were represented by Sir Weetman Pearson, M. F., have changed the road from miserable af- fair into a modern road. Nine hun dred wooden bridges have been re- placed with structures of iron and steel, and the two terminal harbors have been improved, deepened and fitted up with magnificent quays and docks. The lease runs for period of 50 years, during which time the line will be operated in partnership with the Mexican government, the British firm being, of course, the managing partners.
 The railroad aims to carry 2,0O0 ,o00 tons of freight per year, and it's own CTS are of the opinion that no canal system, present or prospective, will be able to interfere with it's prosper ity. They say that the Tehuantepec route saves 2,000 miles on the journey from New Orleans to San Francisco, via Cape Horn, and 1,267 miles via Panama; nearly $500 miles between Liverpool and San Francisco, via Cape of Good Hope; 1886 miles via Panama; New York to Yokohama 10000 miles, via Cape Horn; 5000 miles via Suez;

killing of men and cattle, with coal smoke and dust, and promote com munication between points that now seem far distant from each other.
 By monorail express one could travel from Chicago to New York in eight hours; from Chicago to Milwau- kee in 45 minutes; from Chicago to St. Louis in three hours. And what is quite as imporant, cars could be run at frequent intervals. An electric road has to have power distributed along its entire line, and it would be nearly as cheap to run AS trains of one car each per day as 12 trains of four cars each. The only extra ex- pense would be the wages of a few extra motormen and conductors, a mere trifie in the operation of first class railroad.
 The monorail idea is based on cor rect principles, and that is why it will survive all attacks from interested sources, and monorail electric passen- ger service is an improvement that is bound to come, sooner rather than later.

French Engineers and Laborers Still at Work on the Canal Planned by De Lesseps

under the direct protection of the United States. An impression has been abroad for several years that the French canal project has been en- tireIy abandoned. Such is by no means the case, however, for there are at the present time 4,0oo laborers and engineers hard at work upon the gigantic waterway; and the men back of the enterprise claim that with the expenditure of $125,O00,00o more the canal can be completed by 191O.'
 Active work on the canal was be- gun in 1881, and continued until 1889, when the company headed by De Les seps was forced to go into iquida- tion. The enormous sum of $26o,oOo,- 900, obtained by the sale of shares and bonds, mainly to the middle classes, and finally by lottery draw ings, authorized by the French gov ernment, had been absorbed when the collapse came, and only about 14

duce the American government to undertake a plan for providing tracks upon which to convey steam CTS and sailing ships bodily over the 190 miles which separate Coatzacoal- cos and Salina Cruz.
 History tells us that almost four centuries ago Cortes, the conqueror of Mexico, footed every inch of the Tehuantepec isthmus in quest of waterway to connect the two oceans. Although he found none, he did not lose faith in the belief that at some future time commerce would pass over this low and narrow "divide," and secured from the crown of Spain grant of land which his descendants hold to-day, and through which the new railroad runs.
 The building of the road. necessi- tated cash outlay of S40,00o,0 ,000, as against $2oo,o0o,oO0 for canal. The cost of operation, the promoters of the enterprise claim, will be com paratively small; while the main tenance and repairs of a canal sys- tenn, according to the same author ity, would require an annual outlay equal to the interest charges against the canal company.

MT. F. B. Behr, European engineer of note. It does away with the two-rail track and substitutes for it single elevated track. The center of gravity of the train is brought beneath the point of suspension. The monorail it. self is stout metal, borne at the apex of transverse A standards, upon which the wheels sit. On each side of the standards run supplementary guide rails, which engage corresponding rollers on the car frame. Thus the ve- hicle is kept upright and prevented from swaying unpleasantly when go- ing around curves. The standards are boIted down to sleepers of the or dinary pattern so that the permanent way is one long, low metallic viaduct.
 The monorail has passed successful ly through the experimental stage. A short English line, known as the BaIly- bunion 6 Listowel Light railway, has been in successful operation for some time, and longer line has been oper- ated in Belgium, carrying both freight and passengers. Both are operated by steam, but proposition is now be-

meets the Atlantic with the Pacific. It was built by American engineers, with American money,-aut soon after its completion passed into the hands of European capitalists. Several times in the past threatened raids upon the railway have been prevented by American marines and guns, and the commercial nations of the world have always looked to the United States to keep the road open for traffic. The only compensation we have received for exercising such ex- pensive paternal care over Colombia is the guarantee that vessels flying our flag shall receive the same priv i1eges in the ports of the isthmus as those allowed the vessels of Colom- bia.

miles of the ditch had been so far finished as to be navigable, this dis tance not including the six crossings of the Chagres river and the piercing of the Central Cordillera.
 In 1894 a new company was formed to purchase the old one and complete the work. It began operations at once and just about one-half of the total distance of 46.2 miles is now completed. The new company has rejected the sea level plan, advocated by De Lesseps, and substituted sys- tenn of locks by which vessels are to be raised over Culebra hill. The Chagres river is to be utilized for filling the locks of the canal above the sea level (550 feet), and this will be done by creating two reservoirs or lakes, one across the valley of the Chagres at Bohio, the other at Ala iueldo These lakes are to be large enough to hold any ordinary flood, but in case of their being flooded the waters can be carried off by other channels than the canal.

 Because railroad trains have ever since their introduction been run on two tracks, the wiseacres of the past and present have fought the mono rail with vindictiveness, the vigor of which almost equaled it's lack of logic. They have evidently forgotten the les son learned in the technological school days that thing is not intrinsically bad simply because it calls for the em- ployment of new ideas, new materials and change in the established order of things. s. 2

 There are scores of influential citi- zens here in Manila who, although having no reason for liking the Amer jeans, advocate complete submission, in the hope that it may lead to self government and the abo1ishment of military rule. With domestic peace restored, municipal and provincial affairs administered by men who love the country, increased shipping fa- cilities and wider markets, the Phil- ippine islands would, in few years. become factor in commercial affairs the influence of which would astonish the world. Outside of small coterie of agitators no one objects to ac- knowledging the suzerainty of the United States, but everybody hopes and prays that the American con- gress, at it's coming session, will grant home government to the impov- erished but still hopeful people of the civilized portions of the Philippine archipelago.

 In and around Manila, the center of Filipino activity, the Americans have given encouragement to the formation of a party, called the ''federalists." This party consists principally of native judges and of flee holders and aims to make the natives satisfied with the existing condition of things. The Americans brought a saying to Manila that "every man has his price They have proved it's truth, for many of the federal office-ho1ders were so- called patriot leaders antil converted by the glamour and emoluments of public positions.
 Emilio Aguinaldo, who is kept close prisoner, has been approached by the federalists to join them.

ssOh, for trainer who understands men," Some petty trouble over al- cohol rubbings after track work outs, few mandatory orders from star runners in Coach Stagg's team and head coach took all blame and ike- wise abs orbed all credit, lost Con- bear to Chicago. This fall the man who handled Walter Scott Kennedy, the muscular captain of the cham pionship maroon eleven, and host of well-known athletes, will attempt to guide the athletic material of the University of Illinois to gridiron suc- cess, SConibear, next season, will coach the Illinois track men. He has been to Paris and men under him have invariably won points. It is not looking too far into the future to draw picture of Conibear preparing college men for the track and field events of the Olympian games of 1904.
 Michigan has tried the eastern sys- tenn of putting an experienced train- CT at the head of her athletics, and instances of the wisdom of this are so frequent that the Wolverines swear by Keene Fitzpatrick. In the east the great coach of the varsity football candidates may say: "You will play in to-day's game,' but that does not assure the delighted athlete the honor of going out on the grid iron to strlve for his alma mater. The trainer may look over the ath- lete and discover something unsatis- factory and his veto of the coach's orders is never questioned. Who was it but Trainer Fitzpatrick, of Mich igan, who ordered his great pole vaulter, Charles Dvorak, to cease try ing to break his own western inter- collegiate record when hundreds of rootefs for the maize and blue were calling for more trials? The lame athlete won his points and the train- CT wisely went by the axiom: ''He who vaults and wins may quit and vault again some other day."
 If Iowas succeeds in retaining her chief coach, Dr. Knipe, the Hawkeye eleven may be expected to show up as prominently this fall as it did last season. Conibear's skill in condition ing athletes will be but part of the assets of the Illini. Coaches must do the rest. But with famous Dr. Knipe there is more than the coach's skill. He is an experienced physician and surgeon and knows just what each of his charges may stand in hard athletic contest. It is one of the sights of the gridiron to see the doctor-coach swathing an in- jured player in lint and cotton, fix ing him for the ride to the hotel and cheering him up with hug and some pats under the chin.
 Every straw in the current of ath- 1etics points to a wonderful gridiron season this fall.
