EDWIN W. HIGGINS Attorney-at-Law Corner Main and Shetucket Streets PITCHERS WITH RECORDS. A Few Who Pitched No-Hit Gams First Time Out. The unusual feat accomplished by Davis, the pitcher of the Boston Braves, of pitching a no-hit game on the oc- casion of his very first major league attempt, while being admittedly a won- derful preformance, has gevertheless been recorded in baseball® circles be- fore. It can be gafely said, though, without detracting any from the merits of Davis' accomplishments that one so fortunate as to be propelled into big league baseball in this manner is blessed with considerable luck. How- ever, Davis is not the first player to enter a major league in this way, for there are eeveral other instafices where pitchers have jumped into base- bail fame by preventing the opposing team from tallying a hit in the first nine innings they ever pitched in a big league. Theodore Breitenstein, the famous southpaw of big league fame, in his first full game in major leagues, pitched a hitless game. éigainst the Louisyille Club of the.dld association days. Just twenty-geven ‘men-faced Breitenstein on that cold Octeber day at the waning of the 1891 season. In the first inning Taylor, the first baseman of the Colonels, received a pass, but was doubled on the next play, then twenty- five men were retired in rotation. Hughey Jennings' was playing on the Louisville lineup that season, his first year out of the bushes. Hughey had three tries at Breit's left-handed curves and, failed to straighten one of them out. Breitenstein, like Davis, had worked as @ relief man on a few occa- sions previous to this noted feat. “Bumpus” Jones, a right-handed hurler, who was famous in minor league ranks a dozen years or more g0, created a sensation in baseball circles by hurling a hitless game on his first apearance in the big league. Bumpus bumped right into fame by holding the hard-hitting _Pittsburgh team hitless in a nine-inning contest, although they managed to score ons ly: Jofies was new in the big show when he was' sent to the firing line, this game was the last game of the season of 1892, and Bumpus had- been hurried in from the Southern League by the Cincinnati management to find out whether he was as good as the reports from the south had depicted him. In this game Jones won all the fame he ever accumulated ih the big show, for it was about the only full game he ever pitched, as he was turned -loose the following Spring. By holding a team with such men on the line-up as Van Haltren, Donovan, Elmer Smith, Jake Backley, and our Connie Mack was certainly some feat. In_the year 1800 the St Louis Browns secured a left-hander from the Illinois and Iowa League by the name of George Nicol. In his first league game the Athletics failed to get a base hit of his puzzling delivery in an eight- inning game ended-on.account of dark- ness, In his very next game, which was against the same team, he held them to one single in a six-inning affair. The hit was forthcoming in the fifth round, so Nicol went thirteen in- nings in the big league without allow- ing the sign of a base hit, some show- ing for a busher in his first efforts against major league batsmen. Nicol didn’t make good even after that good start. Leon Ames, the former New York star, and now with Cincinnati, in his first game in the National League, which was pitched against St. Louis in the Fall of 1913, was a no-hit ‘affair, and a very clever exhibition as far as it went, it didn't go very far, for dark- ness ‘put an end to the game in the fifth round, and the gathering gloom may’ have prevented “Red” from ac- cumulating considerable glory, for he had the Cardinals on the run, and their efforts to locate his unusial twisters was ludicrous, seven whiffing in the five inings.

H. Gardner Defeated by National Champon Ouimet—Brilliant Struggle Between Michi- ‘nnShuChmpionde.C.FwnuofPimbud: e Detroit, Mich., Aug. 31.—“Ned" Saw- yer of Wheaton, IlL, finally Tealized his ambition at the national amateur golf championship tournament here today, and “Chick” BEvans of Chicago again failed to achieve one of his greatest athletic ambitions. Sawyer eliminated Evans, 6 up and 5, in the first round of match play. It was his first impor- tant victory over the western cham- pion in several years, and they have opposed each other on many occasions. Evans, desperately fighting to win a title he has never captured, played an erratic game. Evans finished the morning round, two down. He tried to spurt early in the afternoon, but Sawyer started out as though he intended to shatter the course record. The latter’s speed was too much for the Edgewater club star. Evans lost the first three holes, then rallied and then faded away. He cap- tured only one hole, the eighth, during the final half of thelr match. National Champion Francis Ouimet and -Open Champion Jerome Travers romped home with _easy _victories. Quimet defeated W, H. Gardner II of Buffalo, 8 and 7; Travers had a sick man—George A. Crump of Philadelphia —for an opponent. The champion was winner by the overwhelming score of 14 up and 13 holes to play. One brilliant struggle made today's play memorable. James D. Standish, Jr, of Detroit, Michigan state cham- pion, was the hero. He vanquished Vv. C. Fownes of Pittsburgh after a heart- breaking round of 37 holes. Fownes was three down when afternoon play began. He overhauled his young rival and the match was squared on the 34th hole. Neither could gain a ma: gin on the next-two greens, but Fownes missed a short putt for the 37th after Standish who was seven feet from the cup, had sunk his ball. The Detroiter, who has been runner- up to Evans in the last two western championships, will meet Ouimet to- morrow. Card of the Standish- Fownes match: Forenoon Round. Standish: Out In Fownes: Out In Standish: Out Extra hole 4. Fownes: Out In Extra hole 5. Max Marston of Springfield, N. J., and Jesse Guilford of Boston had a close duel. Guilford started away like a winner in the forenoon, taking the first four holes, but his fair-haired op- ponent crept up to even terms, finished the round with a lead of 2 up and then gained the final verdict, 3 up and 2. Marston will play Travers tomorrow, and, although the latter has generally been picked to win, g sharp contest is expected. Two other Detrofters besides Stan- dish were successful. J. B. Schlottman defeated C. H. Gardner of Providence, 4 and 2, and Howard B, Lee claimed a 5 and 4 victory over E. M. Byers of Pitisburgh. Two southern stars came out with flying colors. Nelson Whitney of New Orleans took his game with Davison Herron of Pittsburgh, 7 and 6, and A. C. Ullmer of Jacksonville conquered Robert E. Hunter of Pasa- dena by the same score. Results of the other leading matches follow: ‘Sherrill Sherman, Utica, won from Albert Seckel, Chicago, 8 and 1. Hamilton Kerr, Manchester, Vt., won from Dudley Mudge, St. Paul, 4 and 2. J. G.

Nat W. Niles Defeated by Frederick B. Alexander After Five Set 'Strug- gle. Forest Hills, N. Y., Aug. 31.—A num- FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET WAS RESTRAINED. By Problems Involved in the Foreign Exchange Situation. New York, Aug, 31.—The extraor- dinary problems involved in_ the for- eign exchange situation again served as a restraint upon stock market ac- tivity today. With demand sterling when the stock exchange closed at the almost incredible rate of 4.56 1-2 and virtually other foreign bills falling to greater discounts, it was feared that the entire international credit system might suffer severe dislocation and cause the cancellation of many con- tracts by European interests. Further foreign selling of our stocks proceeded in light volume, but was without noticeable effect. In fact, it is now realized that the extent of the Buropean obligations cannot be over- come short of a credit, loan or other form of negotiation running into the hundreds of millions of dollars. Whlie American bankers decline to comment on this phase of the situation, it is believed that the only sort of col- lateral acceptable to the prospective lenders is that consisting of high grade American securiti Stocks moved irregularly and at times sluggishly, most of the trading occurring in the first hour, with more moderate improvement toward _the close. Pools continue their activity in certain specialties, but failed to en- list outside support. Gains of a point or two in some of these issues were offset by greater losses elsewhere in the same group, Bethlehem Steel, New York Air Brake and Studebaker dis- playing especial heaviness. U. S. Steel held tenaciously to its leadership, but was more susceptible to realizing sales and bear pressure. Coppers eased at times on rumors of private price concessions for the metal. Railroad shares were in bet- ter demand, increased earnings con- tributing to that end, but interest was mainly in low grade issues like Eries, Rock Island and Chesapeake & Ohio, New Haven at 67 3-8, a gain Of 1 3-8. High priced rails fell back later on rumors of crop damage in the middle west. Total sales amounted to 587,000 shares. Our_securities were mostly higher in London, particularly Reading and Canadian Pacific, but quotations re- ceived here after London's close show- ed_a reaction. Liquidation of our bonds for foreign account was again the feature of the bond list, causing general but nofninal recessions. Total sales, par value, ag- gregated $3,575,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. STOCKS, Sales. 320 Balt. & Ohio pr 100 Batipolis Min . 500 Beth, Steel 100 Betn. Steel pr . 500 Brookisn B T 1000 Butte _ &Bup. . 5800 Cal.

More than two hours of the hardest kind of play was necessary before Al- exander ‘emerged victor by scores of 6-3, 5-7, 7-5, 8-10 and 6-2. The longest set developed in the match between C. M.

Ou Labor day we play the New London Independents in Willimantic, and not John Hughes' Sachems. We would like to know if Manager Hughes arranges all ball games. the way he arranged those two. If eo, we can readily understand why the famous trip.to Maine fell through. When we arrange a ball game with Manager Hughes, with the date settled and where the game is to be played. that is the time to advertise. MICHAEL M’CARTHY, Manager Emeralds.
