New York, Oct. 19.—The national commission censured John McGraw. manager of the New York National league club, today, for nis conduct during the Athletics-Giants game in this city last Tuesday, and notified him that a repetition of his misconduct would result in his removal from the field, a disbarment from all further world series games, and the infliction of a heavy fine. First Baseman Mer- kle of the New York club was-fined $100 for improper language. The national commission made pub- lic tonight the following letters: ‘New York, Oct. 18,' 1911. “Mr, John J.

SHARP ‘REBUKE FOR MUGESY STOCK CHASSIS RACING n SHOWS AUTO PROGRESS. Cars and Tires Stand Up Under Exact- ing Tridls. Nothing can supplant stock chassis races as an index to the progress made in the automobile industry. The ad- vances made in the last twelve months were plainly demonstrated in the stock chassis road races at Elgim For instance, the Elgin National Stock Chassis race, 600 cubic inches and under, an event of 305.03 miles, was won last year in four hours, 52 minutes, 29.85 second, an average o1 62.5 miles per hour. This year Zengel in a current stock chassis 40 (certified under Reg. No. 311) won the same race in 275 minutes and 39 seconds, an av- erage of 66.4 miles per hour, and 3.92 miles per hour faster than the winner of this same race one year ago. This means many refinements and new ideas incorporated in the car since the pre- vious race. This is further demon- strated by the fact that Zengel made no stops for tires, even though he went at terrific high speed. This shows that the weight distribution and balance is correct. In the Illinois Trophy race, stock chassis, 301 to 450 cubic inches, Herr and Merx both in stock 40's eclipsed the record made by Livingstone in a car’ of the same manufacture in this same ugce one year ago. Both cars finished without” a stop ,giving proof that the tire economy as demonstrated by Zengel was not accidental. While there is a limit to the high speed that it is possible to attain in road racing, each year's progress from now on will be shown by greater con- sistency in winning cars, as cars of like make running close together, and in a minimiging of tire wear and mechanical trouble. In short, stock car road racing has come to be a demonstration of attributes the pur- chaser may expect in his car. KICKED FIELD GOAL ON YALE VARSITY. Freshman Markle Puts The Ball Over From 25 Yard Line. New Haven, Conn., Oct. 19—A two hours’ hard practice in a drizzling rain, half an hour of which was given over to scrimmage between the varsity and ! the freshmen teams, were -given the i Yale football squad today in prepera- tion for the game with West Point Saturday Today's was probably the last scrimmage before that game. In the scrimmage the teams lined up in the center of the fleld and the varsity by bucking the line and a twenty vard run by Spalding carried the ball to the tem yard line where Philbin took it over for a touchdown. The ball was given to the freshmen in the center of the field and Pendleton and Markle by two forward passes took the ball te the varsity 25 yard line, where Markle kicked a field goal. The varsi- ty men with the exception of one or two are in fit condition to play against the Army and Philbin, Paul, McDevitt and Ketcham will probably start the game. Francis remained at end to- day and will play that position Satur- i d e freshmen team showed up ex- ceedingly well and is oner of the FINANGIAL AND GOMMERGIAL. A FAIRLY STRONG TONE. Buying In Yesterday's Market Was Quite Heavy At Times. New York, Oct. 19—Fluctuations of wider and more active today than during the recent dull sessions. The market developed [ a fairly strong tone and buying at times was conducted on a heavy scale. The effect of this influence was offset at times by extensive selling and at| one period of the trading the market seemed to be entirely in the hands of the bears. At the end of the day of contradictory movements the list stood well ahove the previous day's close, | United States Steel, Lehigh Valley'and | Canadian Pacific made net gains of | two points or more and most of the| other active shares rose by substan- tial amounts. United States Steel which was sold vesterday for the ostensible reason that the 'steel corporation was to can- cel its lease of the Hill ore properties, was bought today for the same rea- son on the theory that cancellation of the lease would improve the corpora- tion's status under the Sherman law. The whole movement was so thorough- professional, however, as to poss- ess little significanse, TUnited States Steel rose rapidly at the opening in common with the remainder of the list.

Wken the strange case of the Iowal wonian who had slept constantly for 43 dave was reported, many Peopie who could nct sleep =t all wished that | they might have a similar experience. You would be surprised to kiow ! how many people there are right around here who hardly ever get morz than two or three hours’ sleep at night, owing to bad health, general weakness and worn-out condition. Miss Louisa Ludwig, Newark, N. .., who went through all this, has writ- ten o letter saying: “Having felt weak, tired and badly run down, with little appetite and in- ability to sleep well, I began to take Vinol which i had heard was the best remedy for that condition. It has done me great good by building up my strength, improving my appetite and enabling me to sleep coundly.” If you are worn out and weak and want new strength so you can eat well, sleep well, and be well, Vinol, eur delicious cedliver and iror rem- edy is what ycu need, and we guar- antee it to satisfy you. .

Philadelphia, Oct. 19.—The outlook for playing the fourth game of the world’s baseball championship series here tomorrow is somewhat dubious. The weather reports indicate that at- mospheric conditions here will be un- settled, and the grounds at Shibe park are still wet and soggy from the Jdownpour of ithe past two days. - The players on both teams are now anxious to have the remaining games disposed of as soon as possible, and if conditions are at all favorable, the| game which has been twice postponed will be played. Manager Mack of the Philadelphia. American league team smiled today at the report that the de- lay has done the New York team more good than it has the Athletics. e pointed to the fact that the rest has| enabled Baker, the best hitter in the series, to recover fom the spiking he ;ecci\'ed from Snodgrass. Jack Barr:, e said, suffered a bump in New York and the respite would benefit him also. Neither Manager Mack nor Manager McGraw would announce their pite ers for tomorrow’s game. Tt is believ- ed, however, that Bender will go in for the local team, and that Mathew son will be on the mound for the i- ants. Mathewson made the statement last night that Ames would probasly pitch today, but since the big fellow has had an additional day’s rest, it is thought that McGraw will send him back against the American lea2: champions and hold Marquard in re- serve for the fifth game in New Yorlk. It is argued that Marquard has shown form equal to that of Matheyson, and -fits him. with a home crowd to cheer him an, he will do even better than he did in this city on Monday last. Beth Aames and Wiltse are anxious to pitch against the local team, but N Graw is a Sphinx so far as allowing his pitching plans to become kmown. CHARLEY FAUST : GIANTS’ Em‘y MASCOT" “Bug” or Advertiser, Which?—Joined the Club -in" St. Louis, @he big six-footer wearing ~the Giant uniform'and who doés the funny base-runing stunt prior to the game is Charles Victor Faust. Whether he is the greatest “bug” who ever broke into the game or one of the cleverest advertisers is 9. question. You talk to the Giant players and they will tell you that the former term m. Here is how he joined. Whenl the Giants were in St. Louis on their second swing through the west, a long, tall, gawky individual showed up at the ball park. He informed McGraw that he was the_first and only mail- order pitcher il the business. He claimed that he had read the magazine articles written by Christy Mathew- son and Mordecai Brown had studied the pictures showing how they held the ball and as a result was a clever pitchar. , “A bug,” said McGraw, and passed the world alcng. Every man on_the Giant team began to “kid” him, They hdd the big, gawky fellow out at the club house warming up. Finally it came time to leave St. Loui “I'm going with you?” Faust. ‘‘Sure,” answered McGraw. That settled it. Five minutes before the train pulled cut ,the big, tall iellow ran inlo McGraw at the station. “Where's my ticket?” he demanded. “Dién’t the hotel clerk give it to you?” asked McGraw. : “He did not,” answered the big fel- ow. “Well, I ieft it with him,” and Faus: turned and ran all the way back to the hotel. Of ccurse the team pulled out while he was gone. Nc¢ one expezted to see him again, but when the Gianis reached New York there was TFaust, And then a strange thing happened. The iiants got to going. They licked about everytody thit appeared on the New York grounds. Somebody re- marked that it must be Faust. There was absolutely no other way of ac- counting for the string of viectories, and the big, tall Kansan, for he came from Kansas and ran awsy from home at_the age of 32 became a mascot. Some of the stunts that he pulled were wonders. You see the pitchers kidded him into believing that he had all the qualifications of a star twirler. After a while he became impatient. He must pitch. He demanded a trial, and then it was discovered that he was without a ball players’ license. But Faust did the best he could to remedy it. He spent a day ir the vicinity of the city hall in New York attempting to get one. The fact that he could never quite Jocate thes bureaun which issued these decuments was no fault of his. And_still the Giants continued to win. Which made such a tremendous hit with J. T. Brush that he issued in- structions to carry the “bug” around the circuit. Taust wanted to work. One dgay Leon Ames was going bad and it was but a question of time until he would certainly have to be res- cued. Said one of the other pitchers to Faust: “Now, when McGraw takes the ball away from Ames, you go to the the manager and tell him that you are going to pitch; that there wil: be no ball game unless you have your wish, and that you are tired of sitting i 1S, quericd Sure encugh, Amess was jerked. Mc- Graw took the ball from his hands, and you can imagine his humor., Up stepped Faust. He didn't say a came from Mc- There will be “I'm going to pitch. no baseball game unless I do,” re- ‘marked Faust. MeGraw looked him over. The hu- mor of it appealed to him. Instead of making a crushing retort, he explained that ha had already told the umpires that Matty would work, but that if Faust could squarz it with the umps it would be all right. And Johnstone had to spend ten minutes in explain- ing to the Rube, as they called him, that it was impossible.” Befure every game now, Faust takes two turns at bat. He hits the ball and starts toward first. He Is always safe, and steals second, the baseman drop- ping the ball. Then he pilfers third and home, bows to the crowd and goes on his way. All of which proclaims champioh bug of baszball. But ,then, he travels with the ciub, is quartered at excellent hotels and eats the best of food. He is supplied with spending money, and even spent one week in vaudeville at $100 for the seven days. “If he is a_‘Rube’ he is one who has made it pay.” him the MACHINE IS GOOD FOR YEARS. It— GIANTS’ That’'s The Way McGraw Sees Has Some Good New Talent. Nineteen hundred and twelve is still a few stretches of time away. Anoth- er set of winter snows and spring freshets must be crossed before anoth- er race begins. But for all that 1912 sn't so far away not to figure the Giant machine of another season the most formidable in mnother race. “The life of a pennant machine,” states McGraw, “is four vears or there- about. I have been flve seasens build- ing up this club, and I am confident that it will be better next year than it has been this season. “There isn't a member of my machine beyond his prime. Meyers has caught only a few seasons, and has many more years to go. He has improved this past season more than any ball plaver I have .ever seen.

Meyers next season will take his place as one of the best catchers of the circuit. “My infield has at least four more years to go at a fast clip. Merkle has not yet reached his prime, and work through the last six weeks has stamped him as one of the great first- sackers of baseball. T weuldn’t trade him today for any other first baseman in this league, and this goes straingt. “Doyle at second is still a young ball player. Fletcher is just beginning his career, and Herzog is just settling inio his stride. “In the outfield Devore and Snod- grass are both barely above the begin- ners’ class, while Murray is far from and infirm. Then there is Becker, an- facing a trip to the home for th* aged other youngster, ready to step into the ap. “Outside of Meyers I .have a promis- ing catcher in Wilson, who is just com- ing along and who will make his marla before he is through. “In the box, the most important part of any machine, I can start the season with Matty and Marquart as the nu- cleus of my staff Mathewson can't ge on forever, but he isn’'t through yet by several seasons to come. It will take bim a bit longer each year to gst im ape, but this boy uses his head toe ell and knows too well how pitch to wear down quick- 3 Cy Young ran along for twentv-one vears, and Matty has now worked but eleven. I figure that I aan count upon his help for at least five niore pennant battles. “Marquard was late in starting, but vou can see how he has come forward since =etting his stride. WNext spfi% he will have all this experience a even more stuff to fall back upon. He has as much today as any pitcher in the game, and as he takes the best pcssible care of himself, and is young and strong in addition, T believe that I can bank upon him for a long time to come as one of the great left-hand- of the circuit. ‘T. will take no chances, of course, in letting my club run down. I have two inflelders coming on who have led their respective leagues in batting and fielding. One is Buess, from Seattle, and the other Groh, from Decatur, 1. This last youngster hit . for Buffalo in the Eastern league before he was ired by typhold fever. “Altogether I have four recruits com- ing along who led their leagues and two of these ranked out in front as base runners.” HANIFIN CAUGHT SPECLATING. . _— / Former Norwich Shortstop Had Bunch of World’s Series Tickets. Jack Hanifin, Norwich nine in t this citv bad a Connecticut league team, was cne of those arrested in New York for ticket speculating on the world’s series. Jack had a nice big bunch of the pasteboards, which ne was offering to men. whom he knew prersonally. Hanifin was caught at it and ag- rested, costing him $3 and costs in police court. i Oldring’s Sister Dead. Reuben N. Oldring, the Philadelphia center fielder, was notified Thursday that his sister, Lillian Oldring, had died Wednesday night in Mount Ver- rtstop for the old days when first impulse was to jump to New York,” said Oldring, “but con- sidering the matter calmly T have de- cided to stick to the team.
