Mass, ‘Aug. 1% —The blue jersey oarsmen from Duluth-were the zenith rowers in the first day of the National regatta on the Connecti- cut today, making a perfect record of six firsts in six starts. From the time Hargerber and Hell captured the in- termediate double sculls which open- ed the day’s sport, until Hoover out- dashed six competitors inthe quarter mile sprint which closed the" after- noon, the Lake Superior oarsmen were first to receive the cheers ex- cept the intermediate single sculls in which they were not represented. It is many years since a single boat club has won so many first honors in a single day in_the national. The New York oarsmen made & good showing, especially in the inter- mediate single sculls which Heller of the Metropolitan captured by three lengths and the quarter mile dash in which Smith of the New York Ath- letic Club was beaten by Hoover by half a length. Detroit showed well in the junior eight race while the Bostons' best ef- fort was in the intermediate double sculls in which_the Union Boat Club pair rowed the Duluth men to a quar- ter of a length finjsh. The river and weather were ideal.

Grand _Rapids, Mich., Aug. 13— Tommy Murphy’s mounts were driven to firsts in two of the three events carded for Grand _Circuit getaway day here today. Sadie S. won the 2:13 trot in the exceptional time of 2:07 3- 2:07 3-4 and 2:07 1-4, which is the fastest time made by this class of trotters this vear. The mare could have cut off a full second if pressed. Major Ong was the other Murphy horse to win in straight heats, tak- ing the 2:09 pace without trouble. Eact heat was a precession, with the Major never headed. Both Sadie S. and Major Ong were heavily plaved favorites. In the 2:09 pace “Pop Geers was distances for the second tim ein the week. Lelia Patchen, a third choice, won FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET, UNSETTLED AT CLOSE. Heavy Selling Marked the Trading of the Final Hour. New York, Aug. 13.—The overnight decision. of ‘the Interstate Commerce Commission directing sweeping reduc- tions in rates now charged by the an- thracite railroads was the event of primary . speculative importance to to- day’s stock market. Shares of the companies most concerned registered initial losses of 2 to 6 points, the bal- ance of the railway list receding more moderately. This decision was tem- porarily neutralized by a later ruling of the.commerce commission which in essence favored the soft coal roads but transportation: stocks were under constant pressurerand closed with a heavy ucdertone. In the meantime war’speciaities, especially those of the more:mercurial character, were again taken:in hand by pools and syndicates with resuitant advances of 3 to 5 points. Motor shares were unusually prominent, the movement in this group being wider than in other equipments or:industrials. New high records for the day included Willys-Overland at 196 and-Studebaker at 95, the former scoring a maximum advance of 18 points. Heavy selling marked the trading of the final“hour, some of the important railways and ‘United States Steel then selling at lowest prices of the session, with a heavy and unsettled tone at the close. Total sales aggregated $65,- 000 shares. To the student of financial condi- tions, the significant feature of the day was another very sharp break'in exchange on London and Paris to low- est rates ewer recorded since New York became a financial center. mand sterling-fell to 4.70 3-4 or 2 1-2 cents under yesterday’s minimum and Paris checks at 5.89 showed a depre- ‘ciation of six cents from the previous day’s low rate. These quotations hard- ened with the close of the stock mar- ket, but it was nevertheiess predicted that all foreign remittances would show greater weakness unless drastic measures were immediately employed to_meet the abnormal situztion. DMoney rates remained at recent easy quotations and the known cash movement for the week points to an- other large gain by clearing house in- stitutions tomorrow. Bonds were irregular, with narrow fluctuations. Total sales, par value, amounted to $2,370,000. Uniteq States coupon fours declined I-4 per cent..on call STOCKS, « Can Can pr. Car & Fo .

The Dodgers batted Perritt out of the box in four innings, getting a safe lead that helped them against Schupp, who was quite effective. The Dodgers ran the bases recklessly, caus- ing the Giants to fumble and throw wild, five errors being charged against i them. Lobert was hit by a pitched and was forced to retire while Sten- gel hurt his leg sliding into second after a two bagger, and gave Wway to Hummel, who did good work the sunfield.

The contract of George H. Brooke expi the end of this year, and it is undérstood that Dr. Carl Will iams will succeed the former famous fufl back. Brooke was unfortunate with his team in that he was compelled to rebuild it. and it is said that he has the material to turn out the best foot- bgll team Penn. has had since the days of George W. Woodruff and his guards’ back formation. Several of the best players in the ranks of the minor colleges and preparatory schools will enter Penn. this Fall. Ig addi- tion, a change will be made in the eligible list, and as soon as this is done Penn. and Princeton may be brought together again, as this is the only point that has interfered with a match with the Tigers since the two institu- tions severed athletic relations.

Owners Feel That They Have Lost Enough Money on New England Cilub. The Worecster baseball club is on the market. The present season, on account of bad weather, has cost the owners a lot of money, and the men who own the stock are willing to dis- pose of their shares. In fact, they have been looking around for a pur- chaeer, but have not been able to find one. The club is owned by Jesse C. Bur- kett, who holds shares; John J.

A note for $3,000 will fall due Thureday, some of the players are back in their salaries, the lease of the present grounds on Shrewsbury street will expire this year, and the owners want a higher rental if it be renewed- Usder these conditions the present owners are willing to sell out, es- pecially as it is. being murmured among fans that they would like to see new men with a new brand of baseball here. trict Louis, Aug. 13—Theapetition of Amando Marsans, the Suban ball play- er, that the Federal district court mod ify or dissolve the injunction that pre- vents him from playing with the St. Louis Federals, was heard in the.fed- eral district court herestoday. Thescase was not concluded. After evidence had:-been introduced regarding the claim of the'Cincinnati Nationals on Marsans, Judge Dyer announced that he would hear argu- ments Monday *morning. At that timeselso, the attorneys, for the Cincinnati club promised they -would introduce a registered letter re- ceipt showing that Marsans received a letter from Cincinnati dated June 27, 1014, asking him to return to the Cinctnnati club. Marmsans testified that he aid not recall such a letter. During the proceedings today the at- torneys.for Cincinnati-asked:this ques- tion: “Wouldsyou be willing:to rejoin,the Cincinnati club and play/out the sea- son?" “No, mot under any» circumstances,” Sanford Burk, the former Indianap- olis pitcher who recently jumped to the Pittsfeds, would e a fine ad- dition to Bill Donovan’s staff, but it is not likely that the Yankees can get him.

The champion inly in his bout with young £ bets field that he was much in need of a layoff, though no Marsang testified that he had re- ceived no salary from the St. Louis Federals, but that twice a month the club had loaned him $333.
