and manager OF the team il was newt

McCloskey has made a brilliant reputa-
ton with the team here in at least one
particular. and this fact is not disputed
by even those who are against him. As
a discoverer of talent and a developer OF

veloped by McCieskey and he owes much
of his success TO the latter. Karger,

Importance who owe what they are in
major league company TO McCIoskey- and
the hard work he has done for them in
persistent coaching.
In handling a team on the field there
are differences of opinion as TO McClos-
keys ability. Those against him contend
handle a team properly and that he is too
inclined to lose his temper when things
do not go right Yet McCloskey is not in
the same class with McGraw in this re-
spect and McCloskey has never used the
language or shown his anger as the New
York manager does when things do not
go right So far as running the team
from an-inside baseball standpoint of
view is concerned. McCloskey has been
in precisely the same fix McAleer was up
to last season; he did not have men to
carry out any orders he might give be-
cause the limitations of the men were too
small
Has Fiery Temper.
There have been stories as TO trouble
between McCloskey and the players al
most since ne came 10 St Louis. and
there is much truth in them. McClooskey
is not the kind OF a manager to stand
around and take things quietly when he
sees an indifferent player or orders dis
obeye1. and he says pretty much what he
thinks at such times. On the other hand
he has always been good friend to his
players and taken their side Of matters
even when il would have been more pop
ular for him to have done otherwise. He
possesses much personal courage and he
never took the trouble 10 dodge any of
his players who were hunting trouble

personal battle.
line of managers who have had charge OF
the Cardinals since the Robisons took
charge of the team here. McGraw was
one of these and Pat Donovan. Charley
Nichols, Jimmy Burke and several others
have at one time or another had charge
of the team for shorter or longer periods
of time.

Raise 10 Completed

At point 966 feet from the level Of
the Newhouse tunnel, workmen engag-
ed in running the raise in the Sun and
Moon property to connect with the
t elfth level succeeded in breaking
through Wednesday morning. The raise
has been run at an average pitch Of 45
degrees, and the surveyors figures as
to the point of contact were absolutely
correct. no variation being found.
The first opening made was but little
larger than a mans hand, but it only
required few more shots to break an
opening large enough to enable the man
to pass from the upper workings to the
Newhouse tunnel and to daylight. The
men working the drift and those work
ing in the stope were working in per
feet harmony, SO that the connection
was made without accident of any kind
The ventilation afforded by the open
ing was at once apparent, the most re
mote drifts feeling the effect. The
raise will at once be timbered and placed
in condition for active use, and th<-
prediction is made that before long 8
large force of men will be employed
and the Sun and Moon will again take
first rank with the large producers.

Central Make. Rich Find

There is continued activity at the
Central tunnel and as the big bore
drives into the hills, better showing is
beng made and more properties are
being developed. The latest news from
this big enterprise came the first of the
week when fine vein of ore was en-
countered at a point about tolls feet
from the portal, but it has not yet been
determined just what vein it is. 1t is
contended by some that it is the Great
Center while others express a belief
that it is the Lake, but the interest Of
the public is centered on the vein it
self with the hope that great values
will be found, the ownership not being
of 80 much public concern. The point
of contact is at about 14O0 feet verti-
cal depth, and the vein is Approximate
ly five feet between walls. The vein
cutting released a large volume OF
water which made work for time all
but out of the question. and. several
subsequent shots necessitat.d the use
of battery. the splitting of the fuse
being impossible. -
Several tests of the ore show wide
difference in the values, one sack sam
pie giving 1872 in gold while another
ran as low as 10 IN gold.
Manager Willis is quite elated owe,
the new strike, and believes that tlss
tunnel will henceforth intersisaesit ! net

prosperity for this big transportation
enterprise.
