Gleason, the San Francisco prizefight promoter, is expected to ac- quire a large minority interest in the Boston National baseball club, and to become its vice president, hangs fire though the time allowed Gleason to exercise his option expired today. He wired_President W. H. Russell from New York, asking an extension of time which was granted. President Rus- sell says that Gleason made the re- quest for personal reasons and that he has no reason to believe the San Francisco man will not buy the stock. HOSPITALS VS. NORWICH ATHLETICS Another Game Between the Old Dia- mord Rivals Proposed—Grotons Have Saturday. To keep the fans in an interested state of ‘mind, Manager Farrell of the Hospital has three games scheduled for as many Saturdays. This week Groton is to be the opposing team on the local diamond, the Fitchville nine having some of their players away at camp and therefore deciding to have their proposed game with the Hospitals hold over until two weeks from Saturday, when it will come off on the Hospital grounds. For the in- tervening Saturday, Lebanon will play the Hospitals here, having defeated them two weeks ago, at their home fleld. 2 In addition to this nice looking pro- gramme, the fans may see another lit- tle ¥lash between the Norwich Ath- letics and the Hospitals. 12 to 1 ex- plains how the Athletics put it over three weeks ago, but they are generous and are willing. if expenses can be guaranteed, to give Farrel's Fairies an opportunity to even up the score. Manager Sample, at any rate, is go- ing to make a strenuous endeavor to persuade the Hospitals into a game.

New York, July 27.—After a peaceful morning seséfon with slightly higher prices, the stock market was badly up- set today by a heavy selling movement. Declines were more rapid and exten- sive than had been the case in several weeks, ranging from 1 to nearly 8 points among the standard stocks. The prassure was severe enough for a time 10 give the market a feverish appear- ance, but before the end of the day it grew calmer and some issues rose frac- tionally above the low point. Net loss- es were general, Consolidated Gas be- ing almost the only stock of any prom- inence to score an advance. London selling and a €ontinuation of vesterday's bear raid semed to be chiefly responsible for today’s further setbacik. The pressure from abroed was sim- uMtaneous with reports of the British premier’s speech on the Moroccam en- tanglemeat, and was continued late enough to indicate that business was not suspended in London until well in- to the evening. The movement was heavier than any previous one during ‘the present period of uneasiness over the Morocean situation. Estimates of_the selling for the Lon- don account rén from 50,000 to 75,000 shares. _ The increased uneasiness abroad in- dicated by the heavy foreign selling afforded an opportunity. which was put to effective use by the - bear party, ‘Whose activities during the present weather have been conspicuous. _Its attack was centered on the leading railroad shares, which gave way quickly. Canadian Pacific, which fell back nearly 3 points. was the heaviest loser among the standard issues, although the Harriman stocks declined nearly as much. While the losses were most general among the rallroad stocks, a number of industrials, includihg Unit- d States Steel, Westinghouse Electric, American Beet Sugar, International itan preferred were distinctly heavy. Buying of the coal stocks was con- tinued on a large scale, for the third Successive day. during the first hour of the session constituted more than one-third of the ‘whole. Gossip of the board room con- { nected the name of a prominent trad- er, who is reported to have lost heavil in’ the cotton murket, with the recent activity in the coalers. Reading touch- ed 160 1-4, its highest point for Tore than two months, but fell back with the general market. It was learned today that steps to- ward ‘“recreating” the American To- bacco company in conformity with the decision of the United States supreme court are under way Declaration of the usual, dividend on St. Paul - was followed by some buying of that stock, although its re- covery was not large. While no re- duction in dividend was generally ex- pected, enough had been said regard- ing the road’s recent earnings and the possibility of a change in the rate to lend more than usual interest to to- day’s meeting of the board.

This season, when O'Toole establish- ed his league record for strikeouts, and followed it up with uniformiy sen- sational twirling, there were baseball men at least who were ready to Kick themselves, This pair were John I. Taylor of the Boston Red Sox and Clarke Griffith of the Cincinatl Reda. O'Toole was with the Reds and the Red Sox, but his career with each team was short lived. Clarke Griffith tried him out and decided he couldn’t be bothered with theS®youngster. FHe was sent to the Brockton (Mass.) clus and Boston drafted him. He never had as much a trial with the big leaguers, and Tavlor turned him over to Manager Mike Kelley of the St Paul team a year ago last spring, as the wind up of the trade that brought Stelle and Ryan to St. Paul and sent Hall and Karger to Boston, O'Toole, owing to lack of confidence i himself, failed to get into the win column ad often as he should have liked, and after “blowing up” in sev- era! games he asked Manager Kelley to send him to some minor league club, where he could work in his regular turn and where he might overcome his nervousness. Accordingly = him to the Sioux City club of the Western league. After joining that club the red- haired athlete experienced but little trouble in striking his gait, and it was less than two weeks after that he struck out 18 batters, thus estab- lishing a record. He won game after game for Sioux City and is credited with winning_the pennant for that or- ganization. Manager Kelley had sold him with an optional clause in the “bill of sale,” and the opening of the 1911 season found him back with the Saints. He started in to pitch a wen- derful article of ball, and has kept this up, until today he is considered one of the greafest finds in the history of basebail. O'Toole was born at South Framing- ham, Mass, and received his early training on amateur teams in the lit- tle Massachusetts town. When 15 years of age he was offered a position on the Dennison Mamufacturing team of South Framingham. He pitched for the tag company’s team for four years and finally broke into professional bail He is 21 vears old and is a youngster of exceptionally good habits.
