Asked if he intended to retire in favor of any fighter as Jeftries did in the case of Marvin Hart, Johnson said: “No, lett Jeannette, Langford and McVey fight it out. "I think McVey will .thrash any of them, but that is their troubles, not mine. No wWhite fighter can give either of these men a good battle” Johnson has saved his money.

Ball players may come and go, but Jesse Burkett bids fair to be in the game when a lot of the colts who are now at the top of the heap in their respective leagues, are has-beens. Today Burkett heads the Worcester team in the New England league, Doth at the bat and in the fleld. His hitting average in 1§ games is ,399, and he has fielded for 1.000, accepting 17 chances in the games played without an error. Nearly a quarter of a century ago Jesse was one of the leading batters |of_the country, In 1892 he hit for .372 and in the succeeding eleven seasons he swatted the ball for over .300. In three of into the roll of honor for his swat- ting, Jeuse 18 good for meveral years yet.

In the safe at the headquarters of the Chicago National league club re- poses a diamond stickpin, fashioned ,atter Charley Murphy’s ideas of a .301 | batting average. It will become the property of Heine Zimmerman of the Cubs at the end of the season if the | mystic .300 is appended to Heine's | name in’ the official batting averages. Last spring Heine was a hold-out. | He refused to sign the club's prof- | erred contract and insisted upon one of his own making, especially in re- gard to the salary feature, Murphy was obdurate, but_finally ~consented when Heine showed him a collection of pats, each omne big enough to take the place of a mast in & coasting schooner. “Heine, 'm_going to give you that salary,” said Murphy, “and if you bat 300 or better as a regular, Ill give you a diamond stickpin, with money no_object.” “A " thousand-dollar pin?” Heine, eagerly. “A ' thousand-dollar asked pin” echoed y bought the pin this week, just to show his confidence in @im- merman.

Wall Street Traders Awaited Publica- tion of Steel. Earnings. New York, July $0.—Trading “in stocks today fell to the polnt where 1t of which almost one-half was done in the first hour. In the late dealings, when prices again hardened in a few instances to the best of the sesslon, after @ series of meaningless move- ments, business became slightly more animated. The one popular Teason ad- vanced for, today’s stegnation lay in the fact that traders and the financlal community as & whole were awalting with as much patience @s they could muster the publication of the United States Steel earnings for the second quarter of the year. This report was not avallable until some time after the market closed, so the professional ele. ment deemed it wise fo make no mew ventures for either side of theaccount. In the way of general news, the only intcresting developments consisted of another advance in prices of steel man- ufactured products and the ideal crop conditions reported for Iowa and other middle west and northwest states. In the local money markets there was a further stiffening of Tates for the long- er periods, this fact coinclding with the outlook for tighter money in the west. Gl loans were made here at 3 per cent., with the bulk of offerings a shade lower. . The Steel statement showed total earnings slightly in_excess of $25,000, 000, which was in line with most fa. vorable forecasts. Net income, ordi- narily known as net earnings, amount- ed to $18,420,204, compared with $12,- 108,415 in the preceding quarter. Af- ter paying regular dividend the quar- ter's surplus was reduced to $56,483. The bond market was ed, save for further weakness in Mlssouri Pacific fours. Total sales, par value, wera $1,685,000.
