New York, April 13—Rain and cold raised havec with major league pre- arrangements for the openinz week of the baseball season and not a club in_either organization played to its schedule. Of thirteen National league games scheduled only five were play- ed. Of an even dosen dates, American league clubs were unable to keep thelr engagements on but seven occasions. Rarely has so big a crop of deubles been Sown thus early for summer har- vesting. Tailenders Coming Streng. Aside from the weather contrari- ness, the flne showing of last place clubs or near-tailenders of 1912 was the feature of play im the season’s early stages, With Boston in the Na- tional and St. Louis in the American league occupying first i the standings of the cl: end resembled last year's tables turn- ed_topsy-turvy. ‘A glance over the list of National league games piayed shows (he cham- pion Glants minus a victory vet, the lively Boston under its new manager, George Stallings, having beaten the New Yorks in the opening day game, while the weather prevented another meeting of the clubs. The Giants' showing was disappeinting to their followers, but the team has something of a habit of losing opening day en- counters and their speed and general strength are expected to show later. The concededly strong -Pittsburghs beat the Cincinnatis in the only game of the series plaved, Joe Tinker thus starting his managerial career with a Gefeat, which fact probably fails to Worry him appreciably in the circum- stances.

New York, April 18.—The action of the stock market yesterday to many traders indicated a firmness and a | tecinical position favorable to better- | ment. A moderate degree of activity was shown at the opening, prices were generally lower and there were many bears ready to depress prices if given any encouragement. Declines were ex hibited in Amalgamated Copper, United States Steel, Union Pacific and Read- ing. The strong features were Cana- dian Pacific and New York Cent while St. Paul opened unchanged. The market relapsed into duline after the opening, but there were some signs of support which helped the list in a majority of issues to improve, and at the close fractional gains were re- | corded in mostly all the important issues, while in Lehigh Valley there | vas an advance of 11-4 peints over | Friday’s final quotation. Some of the industrials which had been notably weak during several days contin decline, especially Californiu Pe m, Rumely, and International cultural preferred, which stoc #ransactions involcing 440 showed a loss of 31 points. The local market failed to make a brisk respense to the continued better feeling abroad and the improvement in the London stock market, except as in- dicated by the recoveries made in thore issues that were _inclined to | weakness at the opening. It was not a | market yesterday which offered much | groundwork for making deductions re- garding its improvement, and its tone had to be assumed as good simply be- cause it was not bad. To say that the market was in a particularly strong position, in view of all the adverse conditions which for some time have been overhanging it and which e not been entlrely removed, would be rather vemiresome, yet there are somne very important traders who believe that prices are dragging along the bot tom and that discouraging influences | nearly all have been discounted LIVESTOCK MARKETS.

Charles Philiippe is well known as a baseball pitcher alj over the United States and In Rural Retreat, Va. H is also known throughout the country by the decorous appellation of “Dea- con” Ome grand pitcher has thi: sedate gentleman been, although the ravages of time have caused some- | thing akin to glass to creep into that | once great right arm. This hus the very personification of all that is| dependable and steady, was a_tower of strength to the Pittsburg club of | the National league. For 11 long| years did the goodly “Deacon” serve | the Pirate organization, and serve it faithfully. By steady, consistent pitching, and at that fime brilliant. Phiilippe won a reputation that will live in the annals of baseball. { On the 18th day of July, 1897, Charles Phiilippe pitched his first pro- fessional ball with the Minneapolis | club of the Western league. ‘Twas against the Columbus team. Young Phillippe started out all right, and he finished strong, but in the middle nnings, “Patsy” Boliver Tebeau got his goat, and he just went up enough to lose fhe game. However, his next | two games were victories. But fol- | lowing these wins the silent debutante | had roush going for the next half-doz- | en games. being swatted for a double number of hits in every one of them and one in particular, where Indian- apolls clubmen hit his speed for 22 hits, with a total of 3. This game | almost finished Phillippe. But Mena- | ger Wilmont saw a future for the voung chap. In a few games Charles came back and put the kibosh on the Columbus team by defeating them in a 1 to 0 contest. holding the fellows that had been whacking his offerings to all corners of the lot to & couple of hits. This put the young hurler right in_the running and cinched his job In 1398 Phiilippe had & splerdid sea- | son with Minneapolis and was their star hurler. During the time he play- | ed on the team he was understudy to| the great “Bil' Hutchinson, one of the grandest hurlers of the game. For two vears this sedate young twirler had the opportunity to learn from t old master, the dean of coliege hurle and the man that filled Clarkson’ shees for Ansen for many years. A the clace of the season of 1898, Phill- ippe was promoted to the big leagne Louisville getting first chance. Phil Irole into the “big show” in 1899, and from his very first game made good.

A hit- less game was what the young Virgin- | ian handed out to the Glants on their first meeting. an achievement that | brought much pretige to this unas- | suming twirler. With Louisville in| 1899.and hi first vear in a major or-| ganization, Phillippe did well, winnine | v | considerable over half his games. In| 1900 the “Deacon” began his career | with the Pittsburg club. For 11 sea- | sons he always returned his team a| | victor by a _good margin over the 500 | mark.
