them to Gatun in work cars The
news that the road had carried more
than a thousand passengers reached
New York and funds again flowed into
the Golfers of the company.
AS the work progressed passengers
were hauled longer and longer dis
tances and before the line was COM
pleted the receipts from passengers
and freight were considerably above
50, 600, 900. The last rails were laid the
night of January 81, 1855, and the next
day the first train passed clear across
the isthmus from the Atlantic to the
Pacific. The entire cost Of the road up
to December 81, 1858, had been some
thing less than $4,000, 900 and its gross
earnings in the same time were little
more than that sum.
The rate across the isthmus was put
at $25 in gold. being intended to be to
a certain extent prohibitive until they

travel that the rate was not reduced
for more than twenty years. Soon af-
ter its opening the road began to de-
clare "a per cent dividends. and at one
time its stock went up to $50.
In the COS the company fell on hard
times. 1t lost much Of its freight traf-
fic, and was held up by the politicians
in Bogota and then suffered by the
completion of the Union Pacific rail-
road. Next Russell Sage and others
like him got control of the directorate
and wrecked the road. When de Les

road to help in its work.

THIRD BASE COACH IS IMPORTANT
MAN ON BALL CLUB, SAYS TINKER
Player Who Watches Runners at the Far Corner OF
Diamond as Valuable as Any One in Game
According to Cincinnati Manager

1 run was scored, although the play al
the place was close.
The other side didn't score in the
next inning, and it was our game, but
if Holman hadn't taken that chance
at the right time we might have wound
up in tie or been beaten.
McGraw Competent Coach.
"Of course, some may suggest tina;
we might have won any way; that
the next batsman might have hit a
home run if the runner had been held
at third, but the only safe basis on
which to figure baseball dope is re,
suits. One can never tell what might
have happened, but always one knows
what did happen and can make plans
for the future.
Il believe a great deal of the recent
success of the New York Giants is
due to McGraws efficient coaching at
third base The New York club might
have won two straight pennants with
out his advice, but ] have seen lots
of close games copied by his team be-

Drown COacher'S Voice.
No one doubts this latter statement,
for Roger certainly can make a noise
when he wants to. In this respect h.
is the antithesis of John King. John
usually talks, but his remarks are
pianissimo and addressed to the batter
or umpire. Bresnahan's voice can he

Cincinnati, April 24-Joe Tinker says
there are ten men in game of base
positions Joe adds the coacher at third
base, and he asserts his role is every
bit as important as that of any of
the others. Of course, there are only
nine on the side that is in the field,
but the side at bat, according to the
new manager of the Cincinnati Reds,
is incomplete without a smart ball
player in the box few feet outside
the third-base line.
Il don't consider the first-base coach
er very important person" says Joe.
He may be of some account in catch
ing signs or in disturbing a pitcher
but he has only to take care of the
runner at first base and that runner
is in a position to take care of him
self. But the man over at third must
e alive and must know baseball pref
thoroughly. Innumerable games
have been won because the third
base coacher knew when to have the
runners take chances and innumerable
tattles have been lost because bone
coachers held up runners, or made
them go ahead at the wrong times.
Must Be Experienced.
