Columbus, O., Sept. 26.—A sensa- tional ipill today marked the fall meeting of the Columbus Driving as- sociation. It occurred in the first heat of the § year old trot of the Horse Re- view futurity, and almoest directly in front of the crowded grandstand. The horses were finishing their mile when Mainleaf, which was second, stumbled and fell within fifty yards of the wire, throwing Curtis to' the track. At al. most the same time, Baroness Helen, just back of the distance flag, also fell, throwing Tommy Murphy over the rail. The other drivers by good managed to get around the horses. Neither of the horses was hurt, and Curtls escaped uninjured; but Murphy suffered a broken rib.

BASEBALL SCIENCE IN BATTING AND PITCHING. Plenty of “Inside Stuff” Found in Those Two Departments. The fine points of baseball are not confined to fielding by any means. itching and batting present quite as many niceties to those who would be adepts, and, in fact, the game has reached even a higher points of scien- tific development in these two depart- ments than in the other. The days of straightforward delivery of the ball 2nd of clean, full swinging at it as it comes over the plats, are long since past, and now there is a constant duel between batter and the pitcher. The batter has a threefold task. He must know his pitcher. He must study tha situation on bases, the state of the score, the abilities of the men on the bases and the character and known | abilities of the fielders against whose defense it is-his business to make a 2 successful attack. H2 must make up is_mind - whether he shall attempt to hit.the hall out, whether, perhaps, baving a wholesome respect for the pitcher, he shall simply lift the ball into the air and give a runner a chanca | lo advance after the catch, with the added possibility of geiting on a. base himself, owing ‘either to the accident | of the ‘ball falling into an uncovered SpOt or to an error by an outfielder. In the old days every batter had just one object. That was to hit the ball | as hard and as far as possible. In those days few pitchers could depend on their curv Control like that of Mathewson, who has performed the ! amazing feat of pitching 19 innings | without giving a single base on balls, would have been regarded as miracu lous. So Dan Brouthers, Delehanty and ing pitchers who Ifad to rely on a fast straight ball, pitched right over the| plate, because they gave so many bases ! on balls, could swing viciously, and,| possessing a keen eye, were able so to time their swings that ths tremendous | force of the blow would send the ball | fiying, time after time, far out of the range of the outfielder: There are a few such sluggers” left. FINANGIAL AND COMMERGIAL. A STRONGER TONE. Yesterday's Market Less Turbulent | and Changes Less Violent. New York, Sept. 26.—Trading in stocks was less turbulent today and changes were less violent than during vesterday’s upheaval. The tone of the market was distinctly stronger. A sharp break occurred in the early trading, and for a time it appeared a omminent. But the market soon Te- acted, and during the remainder of the day ruled well above the low point. It was apparent at all times that the de- mand was considerably enlarged. The change was pronounced during the last hour, when the market rose rapidly ! under the influence of spirited bidding. | 2 points | above vesterday's close and ended the| day with a net gain of a point. The| preferred gained 13-4 on the day.| Readine. Lehigh Vailey, Canadian Pa- | cific 'and American Smelting closed a | point or more higher, pnd the Harri- man issues nearly as fauc] Despite the showing of strength in today’s market, the nervousness of re- | cent days did not disappear. Attorney | General Wickersham's staterient of the government's attitude regarding en-| forcement of the Sherman law did lit- | tle to clear the situation. Wall street| had hoped for definite information as| to what was in store for the U. S.! Steel corporation, and expressed soma | disappointment because the attorney | general was unable to disclose his in- tentions. The deduction was drawn in some quarters that the tenor of the| statement indicated that a aissolution | suit was to be filed and the early break | what a|was ascribed largely to setting based | on this theory. The buying appeared to be largely | If the| the result of an extensive demand from | the shorts. There were indications that the market was oversold in some quarters. Brokers acting in the “loan crowd” said that the borrowing ot stocks yesterday and this morninz was the heaviest in many veers. In addi- tion to the demand from this source there appeared to be extensive support- ing orders on any appearance of weak- ness. Speculative sentiment was un- aoubtedly leld by the gereral belict that a eatisfactory plan had been agreed upon for dissolution of the American | Tobacco company. Atchison’s August statement, show- ing a decrease in net earnings of $671,- 000, was a much poorer showing ths had been cxpected. The stock down a point on publication of the re- port, but subsequently recovered. Dealings in bonds were enormous. Transacticns in the American Taboeco bonds made up a Jarge part of this total, reaching $5,561,000. The six per cent’bonds rose 33-4 the fours 25-8, and the preferred stock 11-2. The gen- eral bond maiiset was firm. Total sales par value $7,517,000. United _States honds were unchanged on call. i | i i .STOCKS. Righ, Dy Rales Tow.

No pitcher, unless it be Mathewson, can consistently pitch. curves without getting constantly ‘into what is tech- nically known as a “hole.” That is, ! frequentiy be in the position of having pitched three balls and only one strike. In that case he dare not piteh a curve,-for fear of sending the batter to first on balls. and has to de- liver & straight ball. Then the Jordans and the Lumleys reap the reward of their good judgment, and can hit the ball as far as they like. Thus most home runs are made. SPITBALLS AND TWIRLERS. - Walsh Only One of Them Who Has Figured in a World’s Series. The spitball pitcher has won many a game, but it is a question whether he has won any more for having devel- oped the spitball. Maybe he has, but pitchers of the first class, who don’t use the moist curve and who are just as capable as their damp-delivery con- temporaries, are too numerous to_men- tion. Such pitchers as Ford and Walsh have done wonders with the spitball, but with their physique, knowledge of -pitching and natural abilitv, wouldn't they have been fully as effective in. the long run had they stuck to regular ethods of serving slants and shoots? Anyway, it is a striking fact that the biggest of all baseball prizes, in the post-season series for the worid's championship, spitball pitechers have played but a slight part. As a matter of fact, they have not been very prom- inent on pennant-winning teams of either league. and since 1903, when the present worid's series began, the o spitball pitcher who has figured in a world's series is Ed Walsh of the Chi- cago White Sox. Walsh took part in two of the games the White Sox won from the and as much as any one man helped win the prize in 1906 for the American league, but he is the only one of the anointed ball set who eve: cut any figure in a world’s series. (: Morgan helped the Athletics win_ th pennant Jast year, but Mack didn't use him at all in the games in which the American leaguers gave such an artistic and thorough trimming to the pride of the National league. The spit- ball pitcher is mot a useless unit in any whole, but he is by no means a mecessity and more. pennants have been won without him than with him. In the series between the Boston Am- ericans and Pittsburgs in 1903 the win- ning pitchers in turn were: Phillippe, Pittsburg; Dineen, Pittsburg: Phili- lippe, Pittsburg; Phillippe, Pittsbure; Young, Boston; Dineen, Boston: Young, Boston: Dineen, Boston. There was no series in 1304, but in 1905 the winning pitchers came in_this order: Mathewson, New York; Bender, Ath- letics: Mathewson, New York, Me- Ginnity, New York; Mathewson, New York. Not one of these used the spit- ball. The orders of the winning pitchers in 1906 was: Altrock, White Sox; Reulbach, Cibs; Walsh, White Sox Brown, Cubs; Walsh-White, White Sox; White, White Sox; White, White Sox. A Walsh finished but one con- test, only one complete game out of the forty which have been played for the world's championship has been won by a spitball flingsr. That faet is_significant. The winning pitchers in 1907 wern: Pfiester, Cubs; Reulbach, Cubs: Over- all, Cubs; Brown, Cubs. In 1908, they Reulbach-Overall-Brown, Cubs; Cubs; Mullin, Detroit; Brown, : Overall, Cubs. In_1909: Adams, Pittsburgh; Donovan, Detroit; Mad- dox, Pittsburg; Mullin, Detroit: Ad- ams, Pittsburg; Mullin, Detroit; Ad- ams, Pittspurg. In ' 1910: nder, Athletics; Coombs, Athletics; Coombs, Athletics; Brown, Chicago; Coombs, Athletics, One of the 19 pitchers who have taken part in these games is a spit- ball expert. Left-handers have been almost as scarce. White and Pfiester being the only ones. That fine veter- an, Mordecai Brown, leads all the rest in participation in winning games. He has been in_five and has faced three clubs, the White Sox, Detroits and Athlef Overall has taken part in four victories; Phillippe, Dineen, Ma- thewson, Reulbach, Coombs and Ad- ams, in three each, and Youns, Walsh, Bender and Mullin'in two each. NEW GAME SHOWS QUARTERBACK’'S GENERALSHIP, Big Colleges Have Some Good Ones for the Gridiron This Year. There is nothing on the football field so attractive. to my way of thinking, as ‘high class quarterback play, and | there will be plenty.of it this season. Yale has in Arthur Howe, the captain, on> of the best quarters sitec De Szulles: Harvard has a promising man in Potter, the baseball player: Brown has a star of the first magnitude in ackling, and there are many otheis who will get the most out of the pos; ticn. It is too early to tell who will handle the leather for the Tigers, bu they ally_find a_good quarter at | Princeion. Before the season opened ( last vear thera were many follow of the game, and some of them were old varsity men, who sald that the day of the quarter had passed, and that all plays thereafter would he made from <hs direct pass from cen- ter. Most of the men who took this view were forwards, for any _hack knows that he cannot hit the line or pick a quick opening with the ball siammed at him from the cenfer. Tt has been trizd. and it has fafled dis- mally. The quarter, as it turned out, was just as important last season a he ever was in the history of the game. The same will be true this sea- son. says Right Wing in the New York Evening Post. While in many plays it is necessary that the quarter handle the ball. and while his forward passing and some- times his kicking are brilliant features of his play, it is his generalship that malkes him' indispensable, that makes him the real key to the game. Foot- ball requires that the man who has to do the most daring things with the bali must also be the brgins of the game. FHis responsibilities’ are heavy —all other things being equal, he wins or_loses the game. Now, every good quarter goes into a game with definite instructions. If he follows these instructions and wins he is a perfect man for the place—if he violates them and loses no censure fis too severs. Certain plays are forbid- den in certain zones, and If the quar- ter disregards the generalship laid out for him he must “get away with it.’ Hyatt, the Army quarter, violated in- structions in the Yale gams last vear, and “made it go." Later the Cadets tackled Harvard, and as Hyatt had been injured the team was run by another man, from the fullback posi tion. Things promptly went wrons. It was a plain case :f violation of Zeneraiship, resulting in disaster. The man who gave the signals had not the genius of Hyatt, and could not afford to tamper with the schews of ol The quarters T have named, who will be on the fleld this year, are not the type that fool with the business end of the generalship without “making it /0. and for that reason their play in the big games will be of absorbing in- terest. The new game gives the quar- ter every opportunity to nandle the ball and to make the pretty open plays that delight the big crowds, but the meneralship, after all. i the thing on which the critic bases his final judz- ment, Detioit at Washington.
