Thoroughly dried out and with the taste for demon rum eradicated from - Defeats Columbia, 4 to 0—Has One More Game to Champions. his system—so. he says—Bugs Ray- mond has sent hi; u%ned contract to Manager McGraw of the Giants. Fresh from his sojourn at the Keeley Insti- tute “at Dwight, Ill, Raymond now says that even the sight of the ac- cursed cup is a distinct sbock to him. ‘With all the solemnity of a deathbed confession, the erratic twirler confides to McGraw that his face is toward the rising sun and away from. the swing- ing, latticed door. McGraw is confi- dent that Bugs really has cut it out, but the New York fans will, have to ‘be_shown. It is figured that Raymond will be a big help to the Giants next season if he will stick to his resolution to re- main on the H20 wagon. Christy Mathewson, speaking of Bugs, says: “Raymond is not a8 crazy as reports would make one believe. - He has a great thirst for beer, but I think if he would cut it out he waguld be one of the finest pitchers in the game. “He pitched wonderful ball for the Giants in 1909. During the early part of it season one of our team acci- dentllly struck me on the chest with a ba® and I was crippled for a month. Ray#ond was with the team and was going fine at times. I started to josh him and offered to bet that I would win more games during the season than he would, “Finally I sald, ‘If you win more games than I do this year I will give you a suit of clothes’ He started in to pitch then, and my! how he did pitch. -He didn’t win the suit, but he showed that he had the goods when he kept his mind on his business. “I have no doubt about Raymond's ability. If he can only forget the names of the bartenders on the circuit there will be no question about his job, and he will prove to be a very valuable man for the Giants.” Raymond first gained prominence as a pitcher when he was a member of the Atlanta club of the Southern league years ago. It was there that he a quired his nickname. For a time 'At- lanta fans looked on him as a wonder. Each day he "pitched he made it a point to inform the baseball writers just how many bouts he had had with the demon rum on that morning. They were just as particalar about mention- ing it the next day. In gpite of his perverse propemsities Raymond. went into the bix ieaxue with the St. Louis Cardinals and, while he was broken of his bravado, he al- ways took pride in his ability to drink all comers under the table. John Mc- Closkey, who was manager of the dinals, did not treat Raymond as well 88 McGraw has done, but he got better results. Even with tail end support Bugs could go along winning half of his games. He was one of the hardest pitchers in the league for the cham- pion Cubs, then in their glory, to beat. McCloskey did not believe in moral suasion, but was a great advocate of more vigorous treatment. McGraw has stuck to Raymond through thick and thin, and it looks now as though the little Napoleon would be repaid for his patience and faith in Bugs. SHORTSTOP THE BUSY BEE This Is Where Things Are Happening On The Baseball Diamond. The shortstop is the really busy bee of the infield says Jack Knight who plays that position for the New York FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MARKET INDIFFERENT. | Friday Showed Smallest Trading of All the Wegk. New York, Feb. 10.—Wall street's indiffarence, so far as the movément | of stocks demonstrated, to the unex- pectedly good January report of the United States Steel corporation today demonstrated the apathetic condition into which the market has fallen. The increase of 436,000 tons of unfilled or- | ders at the end of January wa$ much above expectations, and was the first increase to be shown since the publi- cation of the report for the last quar- ter of 1909. nfilled orders “then {amounted to 5,927,000 tons, from which | tima the ebbing tide of business result- ed in steady losses until on Dec. 31 last the figures had been reduced by more than half to 2,647,000 tons. United States Steel rose less than half a point on publication of the report today, and almost immediatéely reacted. The gen- eral list made no response whatever. The impression gained was that favor- able developments in the industrial world for some time to come had been discounted thoroughly by the rise of 10 to 15 points, in some cases mor which most of the active stocks hav experienced in Tecent weeks. Fairly Strong Opening. The stock market did little all day lone. It opened fairly strong and ad- vanced on distribution of buying or- ders. ‘The rise, however, olicited little support, and prices fell off when room traders took their profits. Movements thereafter were inconsiderable and trading fell off to the smallest propor- tions of the week. The market was well’ sustained, however, until the final hour, when renewed efforts to depress prices resulted in lowest quetations of the day for some of the active is- sues. Gossip of Traffio Agreement. Gould stocks wers again active and Missouri Pacific advanced to its high- est level for the present movement. The latest gossip as to those issues in- cludes the report that a traffie agree. ment 18 to b2 made between the Hi riman lines and the ‘Western Pacific. No confirmation of the report was ob- tainable in official quarters. A better tone im metal etocks was based pre- sumably upon fmprovement in the Eu- ropean metal markat, but the move- ment is atill small and doubtless is traceable in good part to ahort cover- ing. The weekly report of copper ex- ports showed a decrease of 4,500 te or mors than half the total of export: of ths previous week. Concurrent with the issuance of the steel figures cama the official announcement that the steel corporation is mow working about 60 per cent. of eapacity. More circumstantial details were cir- culated conoerning the forthcoming financing of the New York Central, but definite announcement of plans is still lacking. Known movements of money to the close of business yesterday showed a cash gain by the banks of $7,262,000 from the interior, indieating that tha loss in receipts was smaller than was generally expected. Indieations are, however, that tomorrow’s hank state- ment will show & smaller cash gain than has been the case for several weeks. Bonds were steady. Total sales. par value, $2,981,000.

Should the ba ter_hit through to.left field the left fielder can stop runner from going to third base, while a runner can easily advance from first to third on a ball batted into right field. Consequently the second baseman isn’t called upon to cover second base very ofteri; he is left to plug the right sige. of the diamond. B The shortstop' usually plays deep. thus making all his throws longer, and most of his throws ‘are hurried. Balls hit between third and short are hardest to handle, because the shortstop can- not run at top speed for, the ball, for, if he did he could npt possibly stop and throw. He must judge the speed of the ball and “slide” to’it. so to speakr so that the instant he redches the ball his momentum will have been stopped by his spikes, More than any other player the shortstop needs a good throwing arm. In fact, the work of a shortstop is the work of the whole infield combined into one position. He has to make the same plays as all the other infielders and a little bit more, As the position requires more flelding ability than an other position, a good shortstop will retain his place for years even though he isn’t much of a b: of each ma- jor league team will prove this. With few exceptions the shortstop is signed for his ability to field. I do not mean a poor hitter can hold the position, but a fair batter with exceptional fielding skill will be retained in -pref- erence to a good batter who cannot field. Summed up, the outfielders and first and.second basemen must be good batsmen, while the third baseman and particularly the shortstop must be good flelders to hold their positions. M’GRAW EXCELLED AT . GETTING FREE PASSES. Little Corporal Made a Great Record in 1899 While Manager of Baltimore Orioles. Miller Hugsins of the St. Louis Car- dinals was credited last season with drawing 116 hases on balls in 151 games played during the vear. It was the first time that the National league officials gave out a record of bases on balls scored by the various- players The record-made by Huggins was a put up by Manager John McGraw of the Giants as far back as 1899, when the Little Corporal was tie manager of the Baltimora Orioles. According to the official scorer of the PBaltimore club, McGraw did not fail to reach first base at least once in the first 64 games played that season. In 95 games his total of free passes se- cured from opposing pitchers amountad Lundgren of Hartford, " 6-3; good one, but it does not equal thdt| the pitcher’s. No.man in’the Con- 0 3 nect! lutu;;on with quency. z &0 out 3 won the pennant. But Brockton, the tailender in’ the campaign, furnished Pape, who won 19 and lost 9. This is a showing which comy well with the most" sticcessful slantists in- the Nutmeg league, Wolfang of Lowell won 20 and lost 10, and Parsons of the same club won 12 and lost 6. Lowell finished fourth. In the Connecticut league the official ratings credit Waller of Bridgeport with 21 victories and 10 losses. Snyder of New Haven had a rating of 11-5; O’Brien of Hartford, 20-10; Bannister of Wa- terbury, 21-12, and Foster of New Haven, 20-11. This half dozen was not the best in the Connecticut league last season, but the records say So and if the six New Englanders mentioned were not the best in that league then the odds are still with the New Eng- land pitching. Two of the six New England sextet are former Boston Am- erican pitchers. There were good pitchers in both leagues aand many more could be mentioned, but enough has been taken from the records to get a comparison, just as accurate as any and more interesting than most. CRAWL STROKE ALSO GOOD FOR DISTANCE. London Swimmer Finds It Net Tiring For a mile. The crawl stroke which has led to such great improvement in speed swimming, is generally regarded as only suitable for comparatively short distances. From what W. Henry, the founder of the Royal Life Saving so- ciety, London, says, it-is just possible the_new stroke may ultimatély be adopted for distance work. Most peo- ple who take a keen interest in swim- ming are probably aware that Cecil Healéy of Austrailia has won his laur- els at sprint distances. At Mr. Hendy's suggestion Healey tried a mile swim by the aid of the crawl stroke, and without punishing himself, finished in 24 minutes 44 seconds. It may be pointed out that the world’s record is 23 minutes 16 4-5 seconds, by the late Barney Kieran, and the English { record 23 minutes 16 4-3 seconds, by After seeing a sprint swim- mer (Healey) get $0 mnear. Mr. Henry gives it a8 his opinion that 23 minutes will soon be beaten. He states that Healey’s body swing with each thrust of the arm enables the swim- mer to perform the movement with the least possible exertion, and also that Healey kicked downwards with the right leg, as he pulled with the left arm, and vice versa.

There were‘only two men in the .300 class, Burkett of Worcester, .333 for 38 games, aand_ Wallace of Lynn, .31 for 88 games. Pop Foster of Holyokd led the Cénnecticut league batsmen with .342 and there were eight more in this league who hit above .300. These figures are taken from the “of- ficial records,” which are as good as anything, but not necessarily correct. It must be assumed that there were personal errors in scoring in the two leagues and that the batsmen in one league might have suffered or profited by the scoring of a different set of chroniclers. However, the figures hint at something, and that may be right, too. The Connscticut leagua looks the better in batting and fielding for 1910, the figures showing a league batting mark of .239 for our league, .233 for the other league; and for fielding the Connecticut league was .949 as against 947 for the New England. There were some nifty pitchers in the Connecticut league last season and they were not always with the clubs that could make the megst of their good werk.
