New . York, Dec. 22.— The dullness into which the gtock trading | fell today was traceab 16 to the re- straining influence of tJ 1e tightness of the call money market. It is the as- | sumption of the profe ssional trading element that this cond ition is tempo- | rary—an incident to tiae year-end re- gquirements—and to be succeeded, con- sequently, by relaxatio n with the turn of the year. This expe .ctation probably explains the underton e of firmness in the market, the dispo sition to adopt a waiting attitude, and the perceptible though slight respont ¢ to helpful fac- tors. Special stocks rose from par- ticular causes, in sp ite of the weight of oppression on the general list caused by the narro wing of credit re- sources. The call "loan rate touched the highest of the. year, and large amounts were placed at the higher rates. The largest of the Wall street banks was reporte 1 to be out of the call loan market. Aside from the im- portant subtractior | of actual supplies thus caused, the in cident was of senti- mental influence on account of the drawing of lines between parties of capitalists suggest ed. It is commonly assumed in stock market circles that the great specula tive campaign of the past year, while acquiesced in by all the most powerfl 1l capitalistic groups, has been most 13 rgely entered into by the group cente ring its interests in United States St cel. The illness of E. H. Harriman, hif . sudden return to this country in a diss atisfied frame of mind | of extreme tional league, sent out a letter toda to his_six veteran umpires—Hank O'Day, Bob Emslie, Steve Kane, James E. Jhonstone, William J. Klem and Charles Rigler—asking them to com- municate with him where most of their troubles with the playrs originated last season, and whether coachers, man- agers. or “bench warmers” were prima- rily at fault. President Lynch, who was one of the best umpires the national game ever knew, hopes to reduce the friction that has existed In the past between the referees and the players. .But before he starts on any plans he wants the umpires to furnish him with a full list of their grievances and to learn from them the best means of making the arbitors and players work in harmony. His letter says in part: “As a National league umpire I want you to answer. t6 the best of your abil- ity, this question: “Where did most of your trouble with the ball players last season come | from—the teams playing the game, the | coachers, the managers, or the players | sitting on the bench? “As your answer will have important bearingon some reforms for both um- pires and players that I wish to make in the running of the game on teh dia- mond next season, I want you to give this question careful study and report to me at your earliest convenienc | ANSWERS WATERBURY CHALLENGE Norwich Duckpin Team Will Meet Waterbury Pair—New York Match in Prospect for Murphy and West. <A duckpin challenge appearing in a ‘Waterbury per recently was an- swered on ednesday Dby Manager Stone of the Rose alleys, Bob Snow and Fred Tellar are the Waterbury team that have sent out a defl, which Manager Stone has answered by of- COMMERCIAL. was the oceasion for remark.

Two other pacers, Star Point- er and Audibon Boy, have negotiated miles as fast as Minor Heir under like conditions, and mnow we have the tnique condition of three horses, all| stallions, being tied for the world's pacing record. Of course Dan Patch | has a record of 1.551-4, made with a pacemaker in front to break the wind for him, but since this record was made the powers that control the Year‘ Book have legislated against records | made in that way, refusing to recog nize them at all after the ruling, and the rule was made retroactive to the extent that the record of Dan Patch is marked in the official volume with a star. to distinguish it from those made in the regular way. inor Heir Won First Meeting. Minor Heir has had a meteoric ca- reer on the turf. He was a near cham- pion almost from the start. In 1908 he was in the stable of the Illinois train- er, Charley Dean, and made his first siart ‘at the early meeting at Peorla, | where he went two races and took a record of 2.051-4. At that time there was a v pacer from Canada in training for the stakes, Dan McEwen having him_in charge, and he was called The Eeel. All sorts of sensa- tional stories were going the rounds as to his wonderful speed, most of which were taken by horsemen with a grain of salt. The week after Peoria the! pair hooked up in a stake race at Terre Haute, and the fastest five heat pacing | race in the history of the turf was the result. Minor Heir beat the gray horse the first two heats In the remarkable time of 2.011-2 and 2.01, then made, breaks, and the Canadian horse won the mext two in slower time. Dean had_the brown stallién going steadily in the fifth mile, and he had no trou- iblez l;\ standing The Eel on his head ! n 2.07. Lucky for Minor Heir. The next meeting of ihe great pair was in the Chamber of Commerce $5,- 000 stake, the pacing classic of the harness turf. Minor Heir was tha fav- orite, but The Eel was well backed by his Canadian friends, who ficured on Minor Heir being unsteady. The races were held under the American asso- ciation rules, which require only 80 yards distance. Before the race the, rivcis signed an agreement to race’| under the National association dis- | tance rule, which moved the flag back 20 yards, putting it 100 yards from the wire. It was a fatal move on the part of McEwen, for Minor Heir broke in the first heat and barely beat the with events in his absence, and his subsequent des th pointed to some withdrawals amvd abstentions from the grand strategy of the market. been occasion of remark more than once that capif al was being placed in stock market ) oans rather than in di- rect stock market commitments through source:s usually credited with acting for the principal group now meost active in: the speculation. A rise in money rate:s at this time would be of more dires:t henefit to this group, in such ecircu mstances, than would an extension of ‘the upward movement of prices of stocks. It is the conviction of stock mai ket observers that much of the years accumulation of stocks in pursuance: of the speculative cam- paign remal as undistributed. A lack of hearty «jo-operation amongst the most impoN.ant groups of capitalists in carrying the speculative campaign to a succersful conclusion might in- volve great changes in the ultimate outcome. 'TThere were occasional re- sponses toidlay to favorable dividend It has|” | lag running. Had it been 80 vards he would have been hopelessly outside | and The Eel would have had easy sail- |ing, as he clearly outclassed the bal- ance of the fleld. As it was, his party ! claimed that Minor Hefr should have | been distanced on account of his long {run in the home stretch, but the judges couldn’t see it that way. Minor Heir then went on and won the race. A great deal of arzument and ill feel | ing resulted from_this race, and Me- % | Bwen and his parfty were so incensed | that they refused: to race their horse at the last Detroit meeting on this ac- 4 count. 3 Minor Heir won the following week at Kalamazoo, and then went on a victorious campaign through the great western circuit. In a trip against| time at Milwaukee he cut his record to 1.591-2. He joined the grand cir- cuit brigade again at Columbus, where he met his old enemy, The Eel, who had been winning an unbroken series of victories on the big ring. The Eel Wins This Time. This time the tables were turned and Minor Heir met defeat for the first ime that season, the time of the three | heats equalling the fastest three heat | race ever paced by a stallion. Minor | | Heir was given a rest of one week and was then started in the Tepnessee stake at Lexington, his last appedrance in an open race. Fastest Seven Heat Race. Again it was a duel with the Eel The brown stallion won the first heat in 2.001-2; equalling the world’s race record held by Star Pomter, and he came bhack and won the second heat in 2.02, but his gray rival was looking | him in’ the eye this time, and the third | here was | 1200 Great Northern 200, Do.

Georgian is ._M-mr, But Wallace Could Show Him Up—Evans Thinks Spiking Was Accidental. —_— b Tyrus Cobb, the great outfielder of the Detroit taem, perhaps spiked more players last season than any other three men in the league, said Umptre | Billy Evans, in a discussion of the year just passed. The campaign just closed was filled with mishaps of more or less serious nature, due to the use of the long, sharp splkes baseball play- ers use on their shoes. While many of | the accidents were of a very unfortun- | ate nature, and many stories were printed that in same cases the spiking | ‘was .intentional, 1 feel perfectly safe in stating that practically every injury ‘was unavoidable. Because of Cobb's well known abil- ity, because of the high position oc- cupied by the Detroit club in the race, because of the fact that in several| cases the men spiked by Cobb were ' members of teams reggrded us De- troits’s most dangerous rivi it was openly stated that Cobb had intention- ally spiked these men in order to weak- en the Tigers’ strongest oppenents. i ‘While it may often loek from the stand as if Cobb was deliberate in his| attempts to injure. vet I believe there| are few players if really asked for an honest opinion during the off season when they are’ not excited over the pennant race would swear that Cobb' tried to put different players out of the | running by the use of the steel spurs. Cobb’s Slide is All His Own, Cobb has a slide peculiarly his own. | Unlike most others, Cobb doesn't slow down before starting his slide, but hits the turf at almost full speed. One of his legs is thrown in the direction of | |i the bag, the other leg is usuallly high' in the air, while his body is thrown | in the opposite direction from the base- man. In other words, when Cobb goes into a base feet first about the only thing* the runner has to touch is the| spikes on one of his shoes. feat of touching Cobb is a-rather diffi- cult as well as a dangerous task. Then again there are many baseball mes who don’t fancy Ytouching Cobb any too well, and quite often In trying to | | get in | | safely position themselves th;{l the very spot that makes the play dangerous. Cobb’s fade away slide is the work of an artist. It takes an artist in the art of touching the Tunner to show up Cobb's slide, just as Cobb’s slide shows up basemen who rather fear touching him in order to avold possible injury. It was always a treat for me to watch Cobb try to steal third with Bobby ‘Wallace of the St. Louls Browns play- ing the bag or see him attempt to pil- fer second with Wallace as shortstop taking the throw from the catcher. Wallace Could Get Tyrus. | ‘There are any number of American league infielders who are clever at touching a base runyer, but to my; humble way of thinking no one has anything on Bobby Wallace. He is an adept at handling a thrown ball with one hand, and unless the catcher hap- pens to make a throw that is right on the runner there isn’'t a chance for Wallace to be spiked. ‘I have often seen Cobb go into Wallace with ter- rific speed. Taking the throw in his gloved hand, Wallace would hook the ba!l uncs - Cobb’s foot and start him off in some direction, other shan the bag. I have often seédn Cobb miss the bag at least a foot after being touched out by Wallace! | One day, after a game in which Wal- lace had thrice thwarted Cobb in his efforts to steal without the ‘slightest “It's funny how Cobb seldom hurts you, Bobby; you seem to have no more trouble touching him than any other | ‘base runner. I hear lots of players complain, but never hear you say any- thing, no matter how hard he comes into tne bag.” “It's just the same touching Cobb as any other runner to me, Billy,” replied Walldce. “In fact, I would much pre- fer touching Cobb with his finished Such a statement coming from Wal- lace alw: interested me. Never did Cobb go into a bag with Wallace cov- ering that I didn't watch just how ‘Wallace got the ball on him. It was; always a battle of artists, with honors about even. HOW HE WILL WIN.
