The fighters let loose their heavy guns from the start and both the big bouts were decided inside of three rounds.

In the semi-final Kid Wilkerson of Lowell was pitted against Kid Sum- mers of Putnam, making a slashing go from the rine of the bell. The two lightweights waded in to swap punches from the first tap, the crowd cheering them on to their best efforts. Wilker- son showed the most science, carefuily measuring his man and landing his blows with lots of steam to the right spots. In the second he caught the Putnam lad with a straight left to the nose after he had staggered him with an uppercut, the last blow sending Summers flying into the scenery, com- .pletely out.

Steel Strong. sept178 OUT SALE New York, Sept. 22.—Various osten- sible reasons were advanced for the weak tone of the stock market today. The real reason was the suspicion that the capitalists who have played the lu.dmg part in the prolonged advance in prices and their party followers vere selling or had' sold a great deal of their holdings. The support accord- ed the market was not of that deter- mined and effective character that haz been manifest at any period of pres sure for a long time past. This ac- tion engendered the fear that the al- most limitless resources at the com- mand of the men credited with the speculative leadership were no longer being employed in further accumula- tion, and in protecting values of hold- ings already acquired. Efforts at sus- taining prices made, 700 25400 or refurnish their 400 were plainly, 200 enough, but their ineffectiveness sug-|—— gested that the recent passing of | — stocks from strong to weaker hands. ‘3’:., The belief that this process has been 300 going on is fostered by the number 200 of stories recently influencial in stim- f ullnn‘ speculative buyings which 2900 have failed of confirmation. The glar- 100 ing_instance of the Central Railroad 1::: of New Jersey dividend, which was left unchanged yesterday, drew particular attention to the subject owing to the very heavy speculation which has con- verged on Reading in the expectation that this dividend was to be raised. A summing up of other recent predic- tions which have proved unreliable was going on today. It was surmised that the persons responsible for the origin and circulation of these rumors were not likely to have waited until the time of their certain disproof to effect the selling of stocks, the demand for which these rumors were palpably designed to stimulate.

While the pennant nearing teams in the two major leagues are racing to- ward their common goal in the struggles for supremacy in the home strentch of the league races, few fans stop to consider the real reason for the successes and failures of the various runners-up for the flags. The dyed-in- the-wool fans afe so busy rooting for | their various teams that their time | is all taken up in‘elation over victories land despair over defeats While fine | swatting, fine fielding and fine pitch- ing remain the chief ingredients to be mixed, in order to produce a flag-win- ning taem, inside baseball plays a stellar part in the drama also. Hitting and fielding bring fans out to see the i games, and usually keep a team well | up In the second division, away from | danger of last place, but hitting with- out base running is like bread without butter—you like it, but every mouth- ful increases the consciousness that that there's something lacking. The whirlwind base running and darring of Harry Lord, Niles, Speaker and Gessler have accounted for nearly as much of the Red Sox's success as the lusty clouts with the willow. Gess- ler, neyer considered a base stealer, has taken desperate chances along the pebble path this season, and has de- veloped his showing immensely. Har- ry Lorl has performed wonderfully on the base paths, and Harry Niles has beer. close behind Lord in chance tak- ing. In _the pirate crew of National league leaders are such base runners as Leach, Clarke, Wagner and Wilson. Bobby Byrne is fast picking up the art of sack swiping, and Miller, gecond sack find of the season, knows what to do with his feet when on the poths betwen the pillows also. In Jennings’ Tiger tribe are a fancy assortment of base thieves. Cobb, Crawford, Davy Jones, Matty McIn- tdyre, “Rubberball” Bush and Morfar- ty. Jannings, always alive to oppor- tunities to forge ahead of other man- agers, has devoted much of his time to make base runners out of his pitch- fina! | the | werthrow of two pro- first choices made lively the third afternoon of Grand Circuit rac- ing here.

This report was a legal opinion framed by Attorney John F. Carpenter and indicated that the city has a right to establish a building or street line aft- er due notice has been given the abut- ting property owners that a ohange was contemplted, thus giving them an opportunity to appear before the coun- cil and be heard as to their claims. Would Require Six Weeks. The time that would be required for such a procedure would be about six weeks. Alderman Brodeu: pointed out that the Peloquin building is to be erected at once, and this fact mieade it important that the matter be decided immediately so that work on the building would not be delayed in anticipation of a change in street and building line. After considering other phases of the matter the vote was taken. A petition from the New Haven road for the privilege of placing a hood under the railroad bridge on Bridge street was read and voted laid on the table. Changes on Mechanic Street. The highway committee and super- intendent of streets were named as a committee to lay out, alter and change the grade of Mechanic street in ac- cordance with the provisions of the city charter. The matter of laying out Brown street was taken up by the council and after hearing James B. Tatem In relation thereto, it was voted that it should be determined whether the city has a clear title to the ereet, and if so, to have the city engineers lay out and establish a street line.
