S, Government Agents Have Made Several Arrests. ‘What government agents claim is to B: a mnation-wide crusade against seball pools was begun this week at Wilkesbarre by the arrest of John J. Kiloonye and Thomas . Warman, Emmoters of the Weekly World and astime Review, sporting publications, through which an alleged pool is said to have been conducted. -Both men, who are charged with conspiracy in ‘the shipment of baseball pool tickets from one state to enother by express, ‘walved hearing and were held in $5,000 ;m.fl each for the September grand ury. James T. Cortelyou, chief postal in- #pector of the Philadelphia district, whose assoclates made the arrests, de- clared that the federal authorities were determined to stop the operation of baseball .pools in all parts of the coun- try. Promoters of the pools, he de- clared, were violating the penal code of the United States, the penalty for Wwhich is two years’ imprisonment and ® fine of $1,000. Announcement was made by officials of the Weekly World end Pastime Review a few days ago that the publications had suspended, but, this, Mr. Cortelyou said, would in no wey affect the prosecution of the promoters. Other arrests, he added, would be made very shortly. The two publiations are alelged to have had agents in all the principal citles of -the country and their sub- scribers are said - to have numbered about 44,000 persons. Tiockets for weekly drawings were distributed and it is declared the prizes aggreagted several thousand dollars each week. Several arrests in connection with the /pool have been made in other cities. ‘HARVARD’S FIRST PAID GRADUATE TRACK COACH iEllery Clark Will Make Good If He Proves to Be as Successful at Coach- ing as He Wi Athlete. If Ellery Clark proves as good at rcoa as he was a competing ath- ilete, Harvard should be particularly istrong in the field events next spring, and now that Clark, in succeeding Dr. ; Paul Withington as assistant graduate manager at Cambridge, is also to do .the of the Harvard fleld men. Clark’s triumphs in athletics ,date back to_the early 90s as a mem- iber of the Harvard team, but he achieved his greatest national prom- inence through winning both the run- ning high and running broad jumps at Athens im 1896 at the first Orym- pic meet. Twice, too, he took the A. A. U. all-around championship, beat- ing among others the far-famed Adam Gunn, and it is interesting in this con- nection to no:'fi whom he sut also an A, A. U. all-around winner. Clark, by the way, will be the first pald graduate coach the Harvard track #and fleld team has ever had. Will Carry Own Drinking Water.

Ta- ber, who had shown unusually fast miles since his return this spring from Oxford, where he been a Rhodes scholar, was trained to the minute. He will be a member of the eastern team at the San Francisco meeting. The trial against time had the offi- cial sanction of the national associa- tion and President A. J. Lill was one of the timers. Three pacemakers, all Boston Athletic association men, were set at different marks around the track. J. M. Burke was allowed 350 yards from scratch, D. J. Mahoney, 120 yards, and J. W, Ryan, ten yards. All four runners started with the pistol. Taber soon overtook Ryan, and it was Mahoney and Burke who carried the champion through the last half mile.

New York, July 16.—More obvious manipulation of the war shares and kindred specialties, with further heavi- ness in some of the railways recently favored by discriminating investors, were the conspicuous features of to- day’s irregular market. Trading in munition shares was again out of all proportion to the sum total of the day’'s operations, half a dozen of these stocks together with United States Steel contributing over 65 per cent. of the turn-over. In the diversion which ac- companied the further raise of this group new high prices were made by Bethlehem Steel at 187 3-4, Crucible Steel common and preferred at 44 1-2 and 99, respectively, Baldwin Locomo- tive at 73 1-4. General Motors at 183 1-4, Willys-Overland at 139 1-2 and American common and preferred at 52 7-8 and 105, respectivelyy All these shares were at their best in the. final hour when fresh buying was re- ?tllymed on an increasing scale of activ- Bethlehem Steel made a net gain of 7 1-2: Crucible Steel commo; 9 5-8 the preferred 6 and General Motors, 8 1-4. Republic Steel and Westing- house were among the “war. contract” issues to figure importantly in the movement. Southern Pacific was not only the most active railway, but also the weakest, losing 2 1-4 points during the mid-session on. the recurrence of the recent liquidation. Union Paci- fic, Canadian Pacific, Reading and some other dividend issues reflected the pressure against Southern Pacific. New low records were made by Rock Island at 11 5-8 and Missouri, Kansas and Texas common and_preferred at 5 and 14, respectively. sales of atocks, 682,000 shares. In the broader field of finance some attention was paid to the more cheerful sentiment growing out of the international sit- uation and the course of foreign, ex- change, in which remittances to Paris ‘were notable for their firmness. The proposed French credit was still in process of negotlation and rumors of a new British undertaking by our bankers were revived. Steady but re- duced on bonds for foreign account was again a feature, U. S. Steel fives being most freely offered. Total sales, par value, $2,310,000. U.
