Moran has been boxing and is show- ing good form and to those who have .seen him work he was a big surprise. It is the general opinion that he has improved 50 per cent. over his battle with Al Palzer, who he outclassed and knocked out in seven rounds, the first man to knock out Palzer. ‘When Moran was asked his opinion of the coming battle, he answered: “Johnson is still clever, but he has 1914 Wall Papers A full line of the asove with new additions coming along, including those with cut eut borderm.

Variations Among the Standard Shares Insignificant. New York, March 24—The demand for stocks fell off today, and the mar- ket possessed none of the vigor of the preceding session. Various obscure stocks fluctuated widely, but among the standard shares variations were in- significant. The speculative position was unchanged and traders kept down their commitments while waiting for something to turn up which would give the market a definite impulse one way or_the other. Small gains were made at the outset. London, which was more cheerful over the latest aspects of the Ulster crisis, came into this market as a buyer, and took away about 10,000 shares. This buying served to hold up the lst for a time, but traders iook advantage of the rise to take profits on long steck. The manifest curtailment of buyin; encouraged the shorts to undertake fresh speculative selling and the mar- ket lost its opening advantage. But litide was aceomplished other than te check the upturn. The undertone was too strong to permit of extensive bear selling nmd speculatioa fell away. Dur- ing the laiter part of the day the mar- ket was dull and lifeless. ‘Weakness again developed among some of the speciaities. Rumely issues resumed their decline, making new low records at 9 for the common and 25 3-8 for the preferred. Active liquidation of corn products shares was caused by the remark of President Bedford at the annnal meeting of the company that if the corporation were dissoived as a resuit of the govermment's suit the common stock would mot he “worth a cent” and that the yalue of the pre- ferred would be doubtful. Corn Pro- ducts preferred slumped over five points and the common about half as much, Copper shares made no responss fo continued improvement in the metal market.

Napoleon Lajoie never had been {known to complain regarding the sal- ary paid him by Charles W. Somers of the Cleveland club, but it is quite like- ly that he wishes that during all that time he has worked for the Naps their liberal owner had offered him & bonus such as Joe Jackson has been prof- fered this season. The Carolina clout- er, according to rumor, is to get so much if he hits about .409, so much if he hits above .375, and so much if he hits above .260. Never having hit be- | low the last named mark since he has een in the American league, the chances are that Jackson will earn at least one of the extra sums his con- tract calls for, even if the Cincinnati base hit has been abolished. Lajoie’s and Cobb's Records. Look what Larry wouid have had, however, in the way of extra remuner- ation had his contract called for more money in the event of his hitting above .350, .375 or .400. In 1901, work- ing for Connie Mack, Lajoie piled up an average of .422, still the high- water mark for the American league and only approached by Ty Cobb in 1811, the year he was accounted the most valuable player in the younger organization. The Georgian hit .420 that year and .410 the next, Joe Jack- son having an average of .408 in 1911 and Charley (Duke) Farrell an aver- age of .404 in 1903. Other Swatters. During two years of his employment by Somers, Larry has hit better than .375 and in five years better than .350. Cobb has been above the last named mark six times, Hans Wagner five times, Joe Jackson four times. This times, Joe Jackson four times, This Speaker twice, Ed Delahanty twice, Olaf Henriken twice and Mike Donlin twice. The players who have once hit 350 or better in the American and National leagues from 1901 to 1913, inclusive, . are Duke Farrell, Dave Rowan, Farl Yingling, Jesse Burkett, Bam Crawford, Cy Seymour, Lew Wiltse, Heinle Zimmerman, Babe Bor- ton, Bddle Collins, Chariey Hickman, Bill Kennedy, Jack Lelivelt, Jay Kirke, George Stone, Nig Clarke, Chief | Meyers, Clarence Beaumont, Keeler, Charley MeDonald, Jimmy Sheckard, Jack Lapp, John McGraw, Fred Clarke, Roger Bresnahan and Jake Daubert. Billy Baltic Basketball Manager Makes a Statement. To the Sporting Editor: | Manager Caron of Taftville seems | to think that his team has the cham- | Plonship of eastern Connecticut cinch- ed. If by any chance three teams were to be considered for the championship they would be Baltic, Willimantic and Taftville, but as matters now stand Balttc has as much if not more of a claim than Taftville. A portion of Manager Carons’ arti- ole states that Willimantic would have a fat chance of defeating Taftville Parish Lall. We agree with Manager ron.

During the month of August the Hi- bernians of this state held a grand parade and field day at Hartford, and Col. John P. Murphy offered me a $25 guarantes to run in a two mile race at Charter Oak park at this meeting. [ accepted his offer and it was an- nounced in various papers throughout the state that I would surely compete. | 1 got into very good condition for this confident of winning, about a week before the race and felt when one day race, 1 was asked to compete in a three mile race at Caledonian games in N London; and I went down and met the first accident that befell me in all my career on the race track. 1 had a lead of about 300 yards at the end of the first mile, when I step- ped into a hole made by a circus tent stake the week before and strained the tendon of my right leg very badly. felt ashamed to quit, having such a lead, and so kept on, suffering intens: Iy, until the finish of the race, whic T won by about 200 yards. The follow- ing day I was unable to walk at all and of course I had to abandon my race at Hartford. Only four weeks intervened between the accident and the widely advertised race with Cute, and I thought it was all off. I worked hard, however, to get fit and was more than pleased to find | myself able to run two weeks before the date of the race. Just before Labor day I received an offer from the labor unions to run 2 horse at their sports Labor day, and this race I won in 2m. 11s,, quite eastly, the day and track being both favor- able. As the date of my second race with Cute drew near, there was much spec- ulation as to the result. The horse was two_seconds faster at this style of goinw being unhampered by any weight, whils I was one year older, which should naturally lessen my speed, and it was thought I had Iittle show to win. I had, however, peculiar jdeas of my own on this subject, and the method of training I adopted on this occasion put me in the best physi- cal condition of my life, and I had a quiet feeling of cenfidence in myself. This, however, was badly shaken on the day of the race, as a downpour of rain the previous day had left the track in a_wretched condition, and I felt that Cute would bensiit by the heavy going, I determined to make a hard fight at any rate, and at the sound of the pell went away with & good leng stride that covered the ground rapidly, and I surprised every- ‘body by beating Cute by twe seeends in 2m. 10 1-2s. ever a heavy, muddy track.
