TOO MANY PITCHERS HANDICAP A TEAM. Three or Four Dependable Flingers Do Wins Pennants. pitching strings _are no longer necessary, and that four or five dependable men are worth two or three times that number of twirlers, is a fact that the past season and the winning of the championship by the Pittsburg Pirates have pretty well established in the minds of many close followers of the national game. Previously the necessity of having seven men, each one ready at all times to take his turn at box, was a point emphasized by And during last season, t00, the major league manager that did not have at least six available men for the box figured that he was capped in the fight for the coveted the Work Th ‘heavily handi- erans from last year, Crowe, Murray, Things have changed, however.

Good Nucleus of Veterans—Other League Teams Lose Strong Pitchers. ‘With Captain Hendrick and six vet. Noyes, Gallivan, Ricketts and Bailey, baseball prospects at the Academy arc looked upon as rosy this year, ospe- cially as it is pointed out that the other teams in the league have lost men who were deciding factors in thelr success, Windham has lost its crack pitcher, Kelley, Bulkeley the speedy Wale, and Clintoni its elongzat left hander, Moore. Much is expected also from the work of the new coach, M. W. Aultman, who is a Wesleyan graduate, having played left field on the college team.

Of course, they didn't have a re- hearsal, but they couid have fought a 1ot bettor than they did. Gardner was of the proverbial aldermanic propo tio) so fat and loggy that he gen- erally stood in his own ay. Clabby, with two loosencd teeth that he feared parting with altogether, a sore cauliflower and a bad left hand, injuries received two days be- fore the contest, doubtless did the best he_could. ’ The net result was a spotty, badly balanced, wishy-washy and times dreary contest, with Clabby the leader for about seven rounds and Gardner coming slowly at the finish as if to even up what cantage the other's early aggressiveness and foree had given him.

The pressure to sell United States | Steel was a sympathetic influence on the whole market. The publication of the pamphlet report of the corporatien disclosed the favorable detals of the year's operations, which furnished the avowed motives for the iatest ad- vance in the stock. The rumors of Mr, Morgan's illness were supplemented by airy emanations having to do with the supposed doings of the vaguely de- fined but undoubtedly powerful steel pool. The elaborate details of the re- port offered no striking additions to the main outline as already known. The digestion of the facts of the steel report and the needs of. the un- covered shorts contributed to the er- fective rally of the latter part of the day. oMuch of that was lost before the closing, which was wealk. i The rise in foreign exchange halted and money did not rise above 3 per cent.
