FINANGIAL AND \ STOCK DEALINGS DULL Almost to Peint of Stagnation—Day's Gains Reduced by Realizing. New York, Feb. 1.—The day’s devel- opments were regarded as negatively favorable to stock market values and the rather firm tone of the market was the consequence, This firmness did not obscure the fact of the growing lethargy of the speculative interest, which left the dealings dull at times to the point of stagnation, The fact of most influence on the board room traders was that no large volume of outside liquidation was forced upon the market over the week and by the drooping tendency of prices last week and the sharp decline with which the week ended. Selling at the openffig was so_inconsiderable that the traders’ demand to cover shorts with thé pur pose of taking advantage of expec: aclling was sufficient to advance Professional operatijons were d for a decline when this state of affairs was perceived, but they were not pushed aggressively. The refusal of the supreme court to grant the pe- tion of the Consolidated Gas company for a rehearing of the 80-cent gas ap- peal caused gnother downward plung in the price of that security to 115 3-4, this being 2 lower price than before the rally in the stock when the peti tion was filed. The general list show ed itself but little perturbed by th break, and this egain had a n tively good effect on the to supreme court action seeme effect In renewing the m those who had begun to f able action on the case commodities The ithout ivings of ar unfavor- 1o test the clause of the Hepburn law. Reading, which is most clostly sympathetic with developments re- garding this case, was notabiy strong, with influence on’ the whole list. The action of the money mariet proved that there was no eleventh-hour mea ure left by the trust companies to ful- fil the first of February reserve re- quirement. Cal] loans were but slight- Jy firmer than the recently prevailing 7ate. Money continues in abundant supply and no ripple was induced by the further engagements of gold for cxport to South America. The prob- lem confronting bankers in New York remain one of finding employment for funds accumulating, in spite of the heavy output of new issues, which still continues. In London, where a sim {ilar flood of new issues has been go- | iris on, reports indicate that the sup- ply has overtaken the demand and the dariger is threatened of an indigestion of new securities, such as clogged the New York markct after the business Jepression of 1903. The marking down of the price of copper and reports of storm damage to western railrcads did not alter the hardening tendency, but professional realizing reduced the ex- treme gains at the last, Bonds were irregular.

The most trying poriod in a ball player's life is when he makes his first professional appearance. Many of the chesty players seen strutting about the bali parks today like a peacock were at one time in their career the most timid and panic stricken of mankind. This was on the occasion when they made their entry into the ranks of the professional ball players, and now it is an old story, the men whose names today are famous in the annals of baseball delight to tell of their queer feelings when they broke into the game. Cy Young, though he figs been pitch- ing ball foF nearly twe-y vears: sava that he will never forgut that August day in 1890 when he took his piace on the firing line for the Cleveland club against the Chigago team. At this time Cy was a grhea country boy fresh from his father's tarm in Ohio, where he had practiced ‘hrowing the ball against the barn. Cy Young a Grees ‘Country Boy. Cleveland heard of Cy about the lat- ter part of July, invitad him down to the park for a tryout and set the date for Aug. 5, 1890. Young was WJohnny- on-the-spot” and was put in_against the troublesome Chicago bunch. _Only one man in that game besides Young is in harness today and that is George Davis, who is with Comiskey’s White Sox. Young was a very awkward chap (and he hasn’t improved much in these many, many years), and this awkward- ness was Intensificd when it was found that there was mo uniform be- longing_to_the Clevelind club that would fit Cy. He was given one five sizes too small for him and in which he made such a ridiculous figure that the Chicago bunch just lay down and rollad over with laughter. Bvery one worked overtime in_kidding the big gvergrown looking Rube. and _prom- fsed themselves all sorts of sport with his_pitching. Cy says he walked on the fleld fecl- ing as if his heels were made of pneu- matic rubber. Every time he took a step he imagined he was sinking down into the hard earth. fused idea, also, that there was a crowd of people sometwhere in the vi- cinity, but he couldn’t remember where it was, Taunted Him. The Chicago players, though, soon brought the big fellow out of h\k dreamy condition by jeering _taunts. This got Cy so angry that all his ner. vousness vanished like a flash. Grit- ting his teeth, hw took his position in the pitcher's box with the stern deter- mination to win that game In erder to show the “sassy westerners" that he wasn't as green as he looked. Nerved up to this pitch, the ungainly fellow shot his curves over the plate and with such cannonba.l speed that he had the bewlildered Chicagoans at his mercy. He finally won his game by a score of 8 to 1. He was hit safely but three times; gave only three pass- es to first, and struck out five men, including the redoubtahle Captain An- son. MoGraw Once Tamed. “Muggsy” McGraw, to see him on the fleld today and to hear him roast- ing the umpires to a frazale, would hardly be accused of becoming discon- certed at anything. Yet he got the can by the Olean club of the New York State league on his initial ap- pearance, It was way back in April, 1890, April Fool's day, to be exact, that Johnny McGraw blew into Olean. Just the opposite of Cy Young, there wasn't a suit in the camp that would fit the midget. In fact, thers was only one suit that was not in use, and that be- longed to a six footer. McGraw climb- ed into the sult and when this bundle of clothing/came on the fleld a search warrant was sworn out to find the youngster. There were at least 1.000,000 people on the Olean grounds that day. Mc- Graw says 0, and he ought to know. On the first ball knocked to him at third base “Muggey" put the clamps on, but it seemed to be as big as @ mountain. He took a good hold on it and heaved it several feet over the first baseman’s head. Every ball that was knocked to him thereafter during the game he threw higher and higher. After the game the manager came up to the little Celt, patted him on the head and told him that he was an awfully nice boy and =0 on, but gs a ball piayer he was nothing short of a frigid frost. MeGraw pulled out of Olean that night. He secured a berth on the Wellesville team, where he finished the season. He did so well that at the end of the year he received no less than elghteen chances, one of them from “Pop” Anson of the Chicago team. Ewing Started With Cincinnati. Buck Ewing, before his death, used to like to go back to the time e was first given an opportunity with the Cincinnati team. He liked to tell how his nerve desertea him and how he felt At the time Buck took up baseball for a living he was employed by a Cin- !cinnat! brewery. During his spare time he played ball for sport. But so many | good reports were circulated about his playing that the Cincinnati manager began to sit up and take notice. He went after Ewing and made arrange- ments with him to show up at the big ball park on a certain day for a try out. There wasn't a wink of sleep for Buck the night previous to the day on which he was to appear. He rolled and tossed around fn his bed, and while | he dreaded the coming daylight he was glad in a way when it did some. The nearer. it got to the time for his ap- pearance at the ball park the more nervous he became. Somehow he man- aged to present himself at the park, but in_an almost collapsed condition. He hadn’t the nerve to go to the man- ager, 'so he slunk away to the bleach- ers, where he hid himself. Although he heard his name called several times, He has a con- | s ward, a thoroughly disc ball player. g - The next day, however, he got his nerve up and Dmcnteddmmujsto the manager, prepared to do partan youht act. He often said he didu’t re- member a thing from the time he went behind the bat until the eighth inning, when he found himself going to sec, ond, after clearing the bases with a iwo bagger. The players all told him that he had acquitted himself well throughout the game, yet all he re- membered of the game was what oc- curred after the awful smash. We all know what a famous player Ewing turned out to be afterward, and no one coull accuse him of being nervous in the many years that followed his debut into the ranks of the professionals. Kidding Griffith. Clarke Griffith, former manager of the Highlanders in the American league, and who is_to handle the Cin- cinnati club in the National league this season, broke into professional base- pall in 1888. He debuted at Milwau- ee, He was a little fellow, 17 years and his eyes were as black and plercing as they are today. ‘The players of the Milwaukee club and its opponents started in to “kid” the little fellow the minute he made an appearance. They thought it was a joke that such a little trifle as he should have the nerve to try to break into fast company. The opposing team members told him in not very pleasant tone just what they intended to do wih his dellvery. At first he became 50 nervous that he had a great mind to flunk the game, but with the contin- ued gibing he received he got his dan- jder up and the old fighting spirit re- turned to the little fellow. The more they “kidded” the better he got. When he hit the firing line his head was cool and In his heart there burned a deep fecling or vengeance. What he did to been a matter of baseball history.
