the same name, the harbor being pro-
tected by huge breakwaters. At Salina
Cruz the harber had to be built on a
most inhospitable shore line. Huge
breakwaters surmounted' by concrete
blocks weighing forty tons each had to
be constructed, strong enough to stand
the violent northers that sweep down
upon the little port built on an arid
waste. There is an inner and an outer
harbor, and docks big enough to accom-
modate three or four 12,Ooo-ten freight
ers at one time. Huge electric cranes
handle cargo SO fast as to make ones
head swim while watching it. Taking
more than 100 tons of cargo out Of the
hold of single steamer In one working
day, transferring it to waiting cars and
starting them across the isthmus, is a
record that was made a few weeks ago.
Poems do the work. being paid one gold
dollar a day. Beyond q certain point the
gangs are paid additional wages, and In
some cases a lot of poems have averaged
sixty tons of sugar each, carrying every
pound of it on their backs.
The railroad is built as substantially as
any road in the United States. Native
hardwood and California redwood ties
are used. All engines are oil burners.
and the track is kept sprinkled with oil,
SO that trip across the isthmus is one
of the most enjoyable in the world. 1t
has the fewest empty cars to handle OF
any road in the world. 1t started out
with freight business as large as it
could take care of the day it began OPP
erations. This occurred January -, 1907,
when President Diaz, in the presence of
the representatives of twenty foreign ma
tons, gave the signal that started the
electric crane which raised a fifteen-bag
load of sugar out Of the hold of the
American Hawaiian steamship Arizona.

At Rineen Antonio, Mex, one finds as
interesting a railroad situation as there
Is In the world. The Tehuantepec route
is owned by the Mexican government,
operated by an English firm and managed
by American railroad officials. Further
more, it is a competitor of the transcon-
tinental railroads to the north and bid
der for business against the Panama rail-
road to the south. In addition, it proposes
to be q rival of the Panama canal when
1t is completed. Built on the line OF one Of
the great trans-isthmian highway pro-
jects, it has given partial shape to the
dream of the great engineer, JAMES B.
Eads, who. would have built here a trans
isthmian ship railway. Any one who has
trc veled across the watershed OF the
Isthmus Of Tehuantepec, and has seen the
engine of his train going due east while
the rear car in travelling due west, 80
sharp are some Of the necessary curves,
must marvel at the suggestion that ship
railway might be built here.
The Tehuaptepec route is two-hun-
dred-mile railroad extending from the
port of Coatzacoalcos on the Atlantic; to
Salina Cruz on the Pacific. At these two
ports there are magnificent terminal facili-
ties. The ships Of the Pacific unload their
cargo at Ealina Cruz. directly into cars
which are later whisked across the 18TH
mus. where the cargo is again transship-
ped to the hold Of waiting Atlantic
steamer. Nearly a million tons of freight
are handled annually by the Tehuantepec
route. A large proportion Of 1t is sugar
from Hawaii. The American Hawaiian
line brings 1t to Slalna Cruz. where 1t Is
transferred across the isthmus and again
loaded into the holds of steamers of the
same line for eastern ports. There are
half q dozen steamship lines from Euro
pean and American ports which bring
cargo to Coatzacoacos, en- route to Pacific
ports. On the Pacific side there are as
many more lines.
