CARTER COLLINS BECOMES PROFESSIONAL RUNNER. New Haven Boy Leaves the Amateur Ranks—Races Svenberg and St Yves This Week. Carter Collins, a New Haven boy, son of the Rev. John Collins, promot- er of amateur athletics, has become a professional runner;, having signed a <ontract to race for money against Henry St. Yves, the French crack, and John Svanberg, the crack Swedish dis- tance man. The rumners will race on a percentage basis at New Haven Sai- urday night, and will run 15 miles. The ‘rack will be 21 lags to the mile, so that the contestants will have to run around hall 315 times. Although 27 years of age, Collihs di not start running until April 29, 1909— less than two years ago. He has par- ticipated in 27 races, and has finished first, second, third or fourth in 19 of them. He only dropped out of one race, which was a full Marathon, 26 miles 385 yards. /A number of races in which he appeared were run in New York, and ,some of the men he has competed against are classed with the country’s best amateurs. Recently he made a good showing in the classic Yonkers run in New York. HILDRETH NOT DECIDED WHERE TO RACE IN 1911, Leading Winner on Eastern Turf May Go_Abroad. : Whether Sam Hildredth, leading winner on the eastern turf last season, will race here or in England next seas son, has not yet been decided. Hild- redth, who is wintering his string at Sheepshead Bay, says that he will reach a decision in the matter with- in the mext fortnight. He said he had made up his mind to race abroad at the close of last season, but hzd later reconsidered this plan after a talk with August Belmont and R. T. Wil- son, Jr, who had assured him that there would be bigger purses, more and better racing, and more satisfac- tory conditions this season than at any #ime since the agitation against rac- ing was started. Because of this fact Hildtedth decided not to ship abroad. He'is now trying to get some assur- ances from the Jockey club that he will have a chance to utilize all of his ex- pensive string here. If not he will FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL. LIQUIDATION FOR PROFITS The Determining - Influence on Stock Market—Material Neot Losses Gen- eral. New York, Jan. 19.—Liquiddéion for profits, particularly in the more prom- inent speculative issues, exercised a determining influence upon the stock manket today. movement was ae- compenied by at least partial re- versal of position on the part of im- portant traders who had accumulated stocks on the recent advance, and the closing of accounts from that quarter gave rather a bearish tone ¢o the day. The movement svas meat pronounced n United States Steel, Reading, Nor- olk and Western, Pennsylvania, New York Central and Amalgamated Cop- per. After the opening there was a passing improvement, particularly in the coalers and western rallroads, which placed themy as a whole slight- ly above last nisht's oclos As the selling movement gathered volume, the market relaxed wherever thero was active trading, until material net losses were general. While the more speculative issues were declining, un- successful efforts were made to ad vence some of the mineor stocks. The market grew atve er in the late trad- ing and oloses the final figures of | yesterday. the English bank rate provoked some sentiment was influenced by lack of fawora- ble trade deveiopments which were hoped for early in the year, Increasing ease of money is no longer a bullish faetor, it being now gemerally recog- niged that this cendition is largely, if not wholly, due to poor business.

Knows the Game Well, Having Played with Three Big Leagues Before Signing with Farrelj—How He Se- lects Good, Players. By far the best-known scout in the two major leagues is Arthur Irwin, whose work has pXoved very satisfac- tory to the Yankee team. Frank Far- rell signed up the scout om July 15, 1908, and ‘there are omly two men on the team mow that played with the Yankees that year. They are Chase and Hemphill. The rest have been secured from the lots, colleges and the minor leagues. And right now the club is a good one, finishing second in the past season, and the prospects for winning & championship next year look bright. Scouting a Hard Job. It's a very tough proposition for the owner of a ball club to have his club in last place, and losing every day, and then tell the scout to go out and get him some kind of a ball elub. That's what Irwin was told. He was to use his own judgment in getting good players and pay any price for them. The value of n can be seen when the eases of l}e two St. Louis clubs are “recalled. It is esttmated that the owners of those two big league orsanizations have spent $300,000 in the last ten years, and developed just one player. He is Konetchy of the National league club.

Big league scouts are wel- comed by the minor league owners, as the big organizations dump a great load of money into their pocket: Belonged to Providence Champion In his day Irwin was a _good ball player.- He was with the Providencé club when it won the first world championship, in 1884, beating the Metropolitans in New York. Irwin hes been sought by many a club. The Cleveland team wanted his services for one yvear im order to get the For- est city club some good young play- ers, The old scout of the Yankees has been with teams in the three big leagues which have won pennants. He was In the National lengus, American association and the Brotherhood league. He has been connected with the game long enough to know every ansle of it—and he does, Irwin has a number of new men who ‘will be taken south, and it may be that there will be some more good ones in the lineup next season 300 OARSMEN FOR YALE'S 1911 CR_EW. Only Veterans and Football Men Yet Called Out—Werestling is on: Train- ing Programme. Although omly the veterans of last year's rowing squad and football men have yet been called out, it was learn- ed that Coach John Kennedy expects to have fully 300 oarsmen on benches this spring. The gefieral call will soon be issued. Captain Elliott Frost's latest ifnovation is to ~order Wrestiing as a feature for the oars- men’s daily traini and to provida ‘wrestling mats for r;:in training equip- ment of the boathouse. Captain Frost bas picked three crews, but the order in the first boat varies almost daily. All three are load- ed down with football stars. The first eight is rowing with the football end Tush, Van'Sinderen, as stroke. Other stroke oars who are being tried are Appleton and Tucker, the former hav- ing stroked the freshmen till he was taken ill just before the Harvard race last year. Tucker was No. 2 in the 'varsity eight tili he was stricken with illness the week before the big race. Kistler, the football fullback and in- tercollegiate strong man; Jack Field, the football fback, and Morris, cen- ter rush of football team, are oth- er specimens of strength and physical vigor who are members of the three crews who have been set to work. Bomeisler, Buckingham, Read and Paul, all football giants, are all mem- bers of the first crew at present. All have rowed efore, Buckingham hav- ing been & member of the ’varsity eight last year. Seeing Double in Providence. They must see two ways down in Providence. A telephone message from a Providence newspa- per office Wednesday evening stated that Young Foley of Norwich lost his fight there se his second threw up the sponge too soon. This is the way the same Provi- dence paper reported the fight: “Young Foley, touted as a whirl- wind, wiped Norwich, Conn. off the boxing map when he ran up against Young Miller of Pawtucket, in a con- test slated for eight rounds. It took just 1 minute and 45 seconds for Mil- ler to beat him into a helpless condi- tion, four knockdowns being slipped over in quick fashion, On the fourth Foley sat down on his haunches in his own corner and placed one glove care- fully over his face. It was curtains with a capital C for Foley. Morris Didn’t Want Jim Corbett, Carl Morris, the Oklahoma Giant, has refused an offer from Jim Corbett to become his boxing instructor. Mor- ris says Corbett never picked or hand- led a winner and is not etrong enough ractice cided to stick to his present manager, Bill Stone, & fr “mer railroad telegra- pher, who will soon engage a spar- ring partner for the big fellow and will exercise his own judgms in making matehes.
