The Soldiers have a speedy team this year and have a record breaker of a pitcher. who has already established a brilliant strike out record The lineup of the Hospital team will be practically the same as usual, ex- that Brogan and McGraw will ap- pear. B Hourigan, the new twirler; is slated to serve them on the mound. The All Stars journey-to Taftville today and play the P. M. team of Taftville. These two teams met in the early part of the. season and the All Stars won but their opponents are making grand preparations to humble the Stars. The batteries will be Buck- ley and Walsh for the All Stars; Phil- lips and Murphy for Taftville. Sunday the All Stars will have prob- ably the severest test of the season when they lineup against their old ri- vals, the Emeralds. Manager Hughes has secured a pitcher that appears in this city for the first time under the guldance of Manager Hughes, He is| a dark horse and travels with a wide rep. Lefty Smith, formerly of the lo- | cal Trolley league, will be the oppos- ing artist. The Sachems play a delegation of college players from Watch Hill Sun. They open their seagon with the Sachems and are considered a fast bunch. They have a very hard hit- ting outfield and their infield will be a snappy one, probably the best com- bination seen’ on the Falls diamond. Cranker and Taylor are to work te gether for the Sachems while thei opponents have not vet decided upoa their battery as they have several pitchers that can work agaimst any | team.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET QUIET AND FLAT Pending Decision in Freight Rate Case Has Deterrent Effect. N 7/New York, June 19.—Except for the Rock Island securities, which were un- usually active and ‘covered a wide range, the stock market today was quiet and flat. The undertone was firm and there was a light upward ten- dency. Speculators were as reluctant as before to take a decided position pending the much-discussed decision in the freight rate case, and there was barely enough business to give the market a semblance of life. Barly in the day it was reported that the Rock Island reorganization plan would be announced shortly, and heavy trading in the securities of the company re- tieved the dullness of the market dur- ing ‘the early hours. The bonds, with the exception of the collaterals, were bid up strongly, in the belief that their position would be improved by pay- ment of an assessment on the stock. The debenture bonds were most ac- tive. They rose 4 3-1 to 77 1-4, a gain of seven points in two days. Later they reacted two points. The refund- ing fours gained 1 1-2. The collateral fours dropped 2 3-8 to 30, the lowest price on record, but rallied later. Weakening of the coilateral was due to expectation of an assessment against the stock of the parent company, the security for the bonds. Foreign ex- change rates continned to fall rapidly. Demand_ sterling broke 40 points, makjng a decline of about 100 points in three days. Despite this movement, exportation of gold ued, $1,500,~ 200 being engaged today. Sentiment abrogd was still cheerful, and American stocks were advarced in London. Arbitrage brokors here took perhaps 5,000 shares for foreign account. Owing largely to the gold movetnent, another cash loss by the banks on the week is probable. ’ mates of tomorrow's bank stat on known movements of cur-' rency, suggested a shrinkage in cash of $4,000,000 to $8,000,000. Aside from the Rock Island issues, the movement of the bond market was small. No definite trend developed.
