COMMERCIAL. LIQUIDATION RESUMED. Declines of One to Three Points Be- came General. New York, Jan. 15—The resumption of liquidation in the stock market to— day set conjecture to work for some deeper cause to explain it than the more superficial influences which have given responsibility and which are passing away without relleving the market from depression. Yesterday's action of the stock exchange gover- | nors was considered to have definitely disposed of the Rock Island episode and the securities of that company to- day wers sustaining forces for prices, 50 far as they exercised any influence. The reports of the accession of a large | foregn interest to a share In the con- trol of the property ‘seemed to have an encouraging effect on its stockholders @s well as alarming those short of the stock, and the two Rock Island stocks led the short lived advance with which the dealings opened. This was in con- tinuance of the strong rally of the lat- ter part of yesterday and the demand from uncovered shorts obwiously had much to do with it. The call money market also passed from a condition of relative to positive ease, but this proved powerless to cheok the unioad- ing of stocks or to stimulate any new demand. The Hquidation of stocks continued to put back funds fnto the money market, which is in course of replenishment, 'as well as from various other sources. This persistent liquida- tion is deemed important and &s com- ing from influential sources having in view a prolonged outlook as well as retrospect. Continuous and persistent accumulation of stocks went om for many months during the rising prices of last vear and there s reason to be- lieve that the taking of profits on much of this speculation was planaed for the opening weeks of the new year, when easing money markets and rein. vestment of yearly profits were looked to for the inspiration of a general de- mand for stocks. Besides this hoped for active influence towards assisting the liguidation, the period for it was fixed by consideration of the need for transfer of resources into _various other channels to provide for the need for new capital, which, it was foreseen, | would converge upon ‘the meney mar— ket soon after this time. The large subscriptions coming due for new stock and bond issues prove the accuracy of this forecast and explain much of the llquidation. The Mquldatfon was push- ed with growing precipitation today and declines of ome to three points had become general by the middle of the afternoon. In the Harriman Pa- cifics, St. Paul and a few others it was even greater. The breaking through of prices to lower levels than had been touched on previous reactions was the signal for the uncovering of fresh stop loss orders and for bringing new bur- dens on the market. Washington prospects were said to be a principal motive for the throwing over of stocks. The widespread activities of the gov ernment in the field of corporation reg- ulation and the prospect of early de- cisions by the supreme court which it was feared might present ever graver conditions were made the staple of arguments by the sellers of stocks. The stock market showed no rallying power, lowest prices of the day being | reachea in the last hour, with an even The United greater outpouring of Stocks.

Before leavs 3 lhe jolted Welsh a few verbally, usly: can beat Welsh as sure as yowre standing there,” sald Packey, to his friends who went to the pier to see him off. “He can’t hit hard enough to dent a ball of butter. I fought him twice and know him like a book. The first time was in a ten round bout at Milwaukee, which I won on points. I knocked him down in the eighth round with a stomach punch, and he yelled ‘Murder! Watch!” He said he hiad been fouled, but it was a joke. He wanted to quit. Yes, he cut my eye open in that affair, but it was with the seam of the gmlove when, after missing an uppercut, he chopped me with the same hand, a blow that &hould have disqualified him. 'he 25-round draw? Well, I can only say that it was my own fanlt that I did not put him away that time. I dropped him twice, but didn’t get un- der full headway until it was too late. Besides there was something the mat- ter with my eyes near the end of the fight, which Jim Jefirles called a draw. Next day I couldn’t read the account of the fight in the newspapers, but I soon learned that one of Welsh's seconds before the fizht had put pelladonna on Freddie's gloves and that's what ailed my eyes. But I'm going to square accounts with Welsh in London.” CHESBRO IN FUNNY FIX. Question Where He Will Play—$40,000 Salary in Ten Years. Pitcher Jack Chesbro finds himself In a queer predicament. Last sum- mer the New York American league club sold his release to the Boston Red Sox with the provision that if the twirler made good this season a certain sum of moncy would be paid by President John I Taylor. Chesbro_pitched one or two games for the Red Sox and was batted heav- ily, but Taylor was not convinced that Jack had seen his best days. Recently Chesbro was asked to go to Hot Springs on February 1, but he refused point blank, saying that he could not begin pitching until late in the spring because of his lumber business in Conway, Mass. So the Red Sox magnate decided mot to bother with Chesbro and declared that he would turn the once famous back to the Hillmen. _But President TFarrell of the New York club stated yesterday that Chesbro was now the property of the Red Sox and that the Highlanders did not care to take him bacl also that Chesbro’s high salaried contract with | piteher | the New York club expired last year: |In o word, neither the Hed Sox m | the Hiillmen want Chesbro, who will probably be free to sign fwith some other club or retire permanenily. In 1304 Chesbro pitched fifty-four games for the Highlanders and lost the permant by a wild pitch. In ten years he has drawn down more than $40,000 in salary and is well fixed. BOSTON’S SPRING TRAINING. National Leaguers to Prepare for 1910 | Campaign at Augusta. President John S. C. Dovey of the Boston Nationals has announced plans for sprinz training. President Dovey will go to Cincinnati about March 11 and he will assemble there such of his as live in the middle west, eaving for Augusta, Ga., March 14. On the same date Manager Lake, ac- companied by Dave Shean, Cooney and Trainer Neary, will start south from Boston and will pick up other players in New York and Philadelphia en route. The Bostons will train two weeks in Augusta and will then start on an exhibition tour with the following itin- erary: April 1, Atlanta: April 2, Bir- mingham; April 4 and 5. Chattanoo- ga; and April 6, Knoxville. players The rest of ‘this trip is not yet decided upom, but will probabiy be arranged befors the end of the week. dent John T ylor of the Bos- ans states that releases of of his young plavers will be announced soon. It has been arranged to have the Bostons go to Hot Springs March 10. Mr. Taylor declares that he has taken his cue for a shorter course of spring training from the experi- ence of Barney Dreyfuss, who limited his spring training season to little more than three weeks, with a few ex- hibition games, prior to the opening of the season. DAHLEN HARD TO TAG. More Dangerdus on the Paths Than Cobb, Says Tinker. Ty Cobb slides into the bag with great force. according to the state- ments of Joe Tinker, shortstop of the Chicago Cubs, but he is not the most dangerous man on the paths, the Windy City player. He sa: “I hear a lot about Cobb cutting down infielders szetting around the bases, Why didn’t he spike me when had a chance in the world’s cham- nship series of 1907 and 15087 nply because I know a base run- s rights and stay in my place. obb _slides hard and a baseman sht to know enough to give him room. No one in the world slides as hard as Frank Chance, but he never spikes any one, because ba know him and clear the track some of the games of our world’s se- ries with Detroit Cobb sild into first | ana second so hara that he tore the | pags out of but we didn’t get | hurt, and we didn’t give him any more room than was coming to him, oither. “Cobb is a hard man to_tag, but he isn’t half as elusive as Bill Dahlen, whom T consider the best slider in You must have a magni- ying zlass to find enouzh of Bill to lay your hand on when he comes in.” | PRIZE HARD-LUCK ARTIST. | That's Mickey Finn—New Owner of Waterbury Franchise. Says_the Atlanta Journal of Mr. Finn, the new owner of the Waterbury outfit: As the.prize hard-luck artist of the universe, Sir Mickey Finn of Little Rock can make a stevedore’s annual ball look like a funeral in the potters’ field on a windy day in February. Sver since the season of 1901 he has piloted the destinies of ball teams from Little Rock under the most discour- aging circumstances ever before en- countered by mortal man in this pol- luted world. And now, after having met and mastered terrors that would have chucked fire and brimstone to the discards, he has been put out of commission, ‘at one fell swoop of the politics of baseball, Such are the pen- alties of fame! But, anyway, if you can equal Mike’s record as the gent ‘agin de rail’ T will pay the expenses. Mike worked like @ Trojan season and out of season for the Little Rock club. But no use. The ‘politicianers’ inaug- urated a still hunt and got a half- nelson before he saw it coming and it'’s all over but the weeps. Tough luck all around. Honey Melody still signs his “welter- weight champion.” He is in the game and hangs up a few of the smaller purses. He tried hard to come back several times, but eould net get into his old form. __Prof. Joe Murray, Instructor of box- Midwinter baseball “guillotining” had a big day in the Philadelphia offices of the Athletics at Shibe park, this week, Connie Mack, the crafty leader of the American league team, cutting down his baseball squad ten men. Eight of the would-be Athletics whose baseball heads were severed had never played in Philadelphia, the only real mem- bers of the Athletics being the elongat- ed Rube Vickers and Noonan, who were sold outright to Jack Dunn of the Baltimore club of ~ the ~Eastern e. ‘With Vickers and Noonan will go to Baltimore Pitcher_ Mallow, secured from the Wilkes-Barre club of the New York State league. Others who were clipped off the Athletics' roster were small league timber, who have not fully developed. They are De Haven and Seitz, out- fielders; Hornhorft, a first sacker. who will go to Atlanta of the Southern league; Fanning and Hallman, pitch- ers, who will wear Kansas City uni- forms: Scanlan, an infielder, who is sent to Memphis, and Wares, who will 20 to the coast with Harry Wolver- ton, manageg of the Oakland club. Not Standing Pat. While this cuts ten from the squad, Connie Mack is not by any means standing pat on the playing material he has at hand. but is still angling for likely material. He signed two young pitchers Wednesday of whom he heard £00d reports, They are Hanker, a right-hander, who has done good work on independént teams in and around Slatington, Pa., and _a newcomer E beg to announce that we have opened an office at No. 28 Shetucket Sireet, Norwich, Connecticut, under the management o Mr. Lucius Briggs, for the purpose of con- ducting a General Banking and Commission Business, and to deal in High Grade Invest- ment issues.

Kummer is over six feet tall and is a right-hander. This pair will be taken south.on the spring trip and will be given a thorough trying out. ° Rube Vickers’ Passing. The passing of Rube Vickers was not_entirely unexpected. Rube has been with the Athletics on and off for five years. He did great work several seasons past in the Connecticut State league. That is where Connie Mack first saw him. From the New England circuit he went to the coast and was a star out there. Mack then brought him to the Athletics. Rube's trips to the minors since that time have been frequent, he having been farmed out to the Tri-state league on several oc- casions. Rube was of little help to the Atliletics last season. Possibly he did not get the opportunity because the other pitchers were working so well. It now looks as though this excur- sion to the minors is Rube’s last trip, unless he shows surprising form Noonan a First Sacker. Pete Noonan, who ~oes to Balti- more with Vickers, is.a first sacker. Noonan played witlh Wilkes-Barre last season, and was oncc a member of the Athletics. He was a star catcher on the Holy Cross team when Andy Coakley, who once worked for Mack, was a college pitcher. Nooman is a fair hitter. SPORTS OF ALL SORTS. Harry Hillman has arrived from New York to take charge of the Dart- mouth college track team. New Haven will play its first exhibi- tion game at New Bedford on Patri- ots, day, Tuesday, April 19, Mal Eason, a pitcher with the Jer- sey_City club of the Eastern league in-1904; has filed an application for a place on the umpire staff of the Na- tional league, Trinity college is sald to be after Manager Tom Connery of Hartford, to coach the baseball team durine its early spring practice. Washington | college in St. Louis, where Tom lives, is also after him. Former President Trout of Lan- caster baseball clubs, gives up his position with great satisfaction. He landed a pennant, got the club out of debt and placed a little change in front of the owners. Acc g to a report from Kansas City, John Kling, the king of catchers and ‘one of the few baseball stars who ever really “held out” is in a recep- tive mood and wants to play again this year, even with the Chicago Cubs, if necessary. Theodore Breitenstein, formerly a . Loyis and Cincinnati pitcher, who bBeen playing in the Southern league for seven years, will retire to enter the fleld as an umpire. It is said he will join President Kava- naugh's staff. Think of teams having 26 pitchers! This is the list the Cleveland club has on its rolls: Joss, Young, Rhoades, Berger. Falkenberg, ~Sitton, _Otis, Mitchell, ~ Winchell,” Ables, Gre~-. Harkness, Koestner, Boise, Doane, Patrink, Kent, Linke, Wright, Gough, Robinson_ Touchstone. Baskette, Grif- fin, Kirsch and Van Sickle. Ainsworth, the captain of the naval academy crew. will call out the ro ing squad within a few days, and Lieutenant Glendon. the coach, is ex- pected in Annapolis before the end of the month. Active training for a sea- son of fair interest and prospects will begin at once. It is now probable that the last race of the season will be with Syracuse and will be on either May 14 or 21. From Providence comes a wild yarn that a new baseball organization, to be called the United —States league, ill_soon be launched, and that the reuit will embrace Boston, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Providence, Baltimore, Paterson, Newark and Trenton. The rather amusing information is added that - three members of the Cuban Giants, a well-known lored ball team, have been signed for the new Providence club. A person who says his name is Dr. G. H.
