cific, dream Of 400 years comes
true. Christopher Columbus, straining
bis eyes over the PROV Of the Santa

for those who followed him not to

While it wis doubtless still be some

to pass through it, with the joining of
the waters Of the two oceans, in SEN

REAR ADMIRAL CAMERON MRAE WINSLOW.
WHO 1T IS EXPECTED WILL COMMAND
THE ATLANTIC FLEET WHEN 1T PASSES
FROM OCEAN TO OCEAN AT THE FORMAL
OPENING OF THE CANAL IN 1916
San Francisco in 1915, will serve this
purpose. There will also be special
ceremonies at the canal itself.
However, as the date Of the official
opening is more than year in the fu-
ture, details of program have not been
worked out. Probably President Will
son will himself 60 to Panama. and it
is likely that representatives Of the
other great commercial nations Of the
world will be invited to attend.
Among other features Of the official
opening will be the passage of the At
lantic fleet through the canal. Rear
Admiral c. MGR. Winslow, now CON-
handing the first division Of the At
>lantic fleet, is expected to be in CON-
mand' at that time, succeeding Rear
Admiral Charles J. Badger, the present
commander in chief, whose retirement
goes into effect in 1914. Heading the
fleet will be the famous battleship
Oregon whose flying trip around the
Horn in the early days of the Spanish
war was one Of the most spectacular
incidents of that struggle.
= Passing Through Canal. :
Entering the canal from the Atlantic
side, a ship will proceed from deep
water In Limon bay to Gatun locks, a
distance Of 60 miles, through a chan
mel 500 feet wide Passing into the
locks O.78 of a mile In length, the, ship
will be carried up to an elevation Of
eighty-fve feet above sea level in three
lifts to the level Of the water in Gatun
lake. Thence for distance of six
teen miles the channel Will be 1000
feet or more in width. Then the chan
mel narrows to 500 feet, to 500 feet and
through the Culebra cut to 300 feet.
Going through Pedro Miguel lock,
OBJ of mile in length, the vessel will
be lowered to the level Of Mirafores
lake, f1fty-f1ve feet above mean tide
through which there is channel 500
feet wide to Mirafores locks at Mile
:41.72. Thence through the two Mira
flores locks 0.58 Of mile In length,
the vessel will be lowered to tide level
and proceed through a channel 500
feet wide to deep water in the. Pacific
at Mile sos. It is estimated that the
time required for the passage Of a ship
Of: medium size through the entire
length OF the canal will be from nine
and one half to ten hours and for lar
ger vessels from ten and one-half to
eleven hours. 2: , s.s

rom under his pitcher in the eighth
inning when he balled up Tommy
Leach on a short fly to center. With
One out Fletcher popped halfway be-
tween Leach and EveTs. Tommy
started for the ball, but halted when
EVers dashed back in his direction.
Then the diminUtive center fielder
saw EVers wasn't going to get under
the pill and cranked up again. But
EVers continued to back up and
Leach had to give way. AS a result,
both athletes stopped within few
feet of each other and the pill stopped
to the ground, for a single. If Evers
had let Leach alone Tommy would
have grabbed the ball with ease. It.
was UnqUestiOnably in his territory
and he has been making harder
catches every day. Evers was re-
spOnsible for the skull play.
But John is a willy person. On the
first ball pitched to Herzog, Fletcher
stole second. He had a big lead and
arrived about the same time as Bres-
nahan's throw. imp Byron called
him safe. Immediately Evers set up
an awful row. He got the crowd aft
er the aTbiter, and cloaked his own
punk play, which had allowed Fetch
er to reach first, by getting the UNI
piTe in bad. That's mighty poor
sportmanship, but Evers got away
with it. For the rest of the game
Byron was Kissed, and some brave
fan SHE'D a piece Of asphalt at him.
Somebody may tell you that Byron's
ueCls.on cost the Cubs the game. But
the costly play was when EVers but
ted in on Leach.
Poor umpiring is a good alibi, but
it's got to be connected up before
it can be used. AS far as Evers' kick
is concerned, if Manager John had
been playing against Old Chris
Columbus he would have claimed the
latter didn't touch land when he dis

Three Giants swiped second,
Fletcher getting down once on the
disputed play and again when Evers
dropped tailor-made throw. In the
second inning Murray made a clean
steal following his single, and scored
on Meyers single.
Fletcher had a big day, polling a
double and three singles, counting
two runs, stealing two bases and
handling eight chances at short.
Matty had the number of the great
Zim, and Heinie was helpless. Twice
he came up in the pinChes, and each
time Matty flOated the first one up
slowly, shoulder-high, and Tim
cracked it. Easy flies to Burns re-
suited.
Rain yesterday prevented the Sox-
Yank game in New York, but there
will be no doUble-header today. The
company which controls the Polo
Grounds has an agreement with the
Yanks that no doUble-headers shall
be played on Saturday, and the Yanks
are allowed to use the park on this
stipulation. A big crowd is assured
on Saturdays anyhow, and the extra
attraction is not necessary to coax
the shekels in the box office.
Callahan is desperate over the long
string of defeats, and summary
benchings will result if the players
do not show more life in the field and
at the bat. In spite Of his injured leg,
Larry Chappell will have to go to
work and show just how near SIS, 900
he is worth. Rath is to be Ousted in
favor of Berger, who. is one of the
gamest fellows alive.
More batting power must be shown
