Organized baseball hag come to the conclusion that on this ten-day clause rests the salvation of the game. This clause is the only check on loafing, on contract jumping and other kin- dred evils. - ‘Shore and ‘Gardner, who signed up since the world’s series, have accepted contracts with the ten- day clause, and Speaker and others who have yet to come to terms must agree to the insertion of the same MARKET WAS FEVERISH. Anxiety Over Outcome of Internat Affairs Still Apparent. New York, Jan. 5.—The salient fea- ture of today’s feverish market was Its sturdy resistance to pressure. Sell- ing for both accounts was persistent, liquidation converging about numerous specialties, while investment shares were the target of bearish aggressions. Lowest prices were made by some of the potential leaders, notably United States Steel, In the final hour, but losses were comparatively moderate in that class. Sentiment among professional trad. ers suggested greater anxiety concern ing the outcome of international af- fairs now under official discussion, but the conservative element, as represent- ed by substantial bank interests, ex- pressed its belief in a satisfactory ad- justment. There were unconfirmed rumors dealing with the attitude of local financial institutions towards in- dustrial securities, which was height- ened by yesterday’s sudden rise in call money to 3 per cent. the highest rate for this accommodation in over a year. At the active opening of the market gains o1.one to three points were made by various issues, chiefly coppers, Lackawanna Steel and some of the less active specialties. Rails in general rose fractionally, but New York Cen- tral, after wavering at the outset, promptly recovered its quarterly divi- dend of 1 1-4 per cent. Heavier offerings of special descrip- tions, notably oils and automobile i sues, gave the market another setback during the late session. Prices con- tinued to sag, almost the only excep- tion being Lackawanna Steel, which made an extreme advance of 8 7-8 points to 85 7-8 in connection with more or less familiar rumors of a deal. Coppers as a_group were more steady than any other division of the list, those issues deriving additional strength from further large orders for the metal for home and foreign con- sumption. Total sales of stocks ag- gregatec 920,000 shares. Foreign exchange was again subjected to the same conditions and influences which recently contributed to that er- ratic market. Remittances to Germany made the new low record of 74 1-2, and demand sterling added to its re- cent advance at 4.75 1-2.

No action was taken regarding the merger generally, and the meeting ‘was adjourred until Jan. 19. It is ex- ted that the decision of the national ition to unite the been rendered by on the leagues ' will that time. O’CON NOR APPLIES FOR ve Old Pirate Backstop Thinks He Can Make Satisfactory Arrangements. Paddy O’'Connor, the old Pony catch- er, has applied for the Springfield franchise in' the Eastern association, which means that if the Eastern asso- ciation is successful in organizing its circuit for the coming season, he will get a piéce of bzseball property that under ordinary conditions is worth thousands of dollars. O’Connor was offered the chance by Jack Zeller, who has been a' committee of one since the December meeting in New York of the investigating committee of the Nation- al association, in gefting together a circuit by January 17. The offer has been in O'Connor’s hands for several days. Before making known his_decision O’'Connor went to Willlam E. Carey, holder of the forfeited Springfield franchise, and told him frankly he wouldn't ‘consider putting in _an appli- cation if Carey wanted it. He said he would not be the man to stand in Carey’s way, but if Carey wanted to change his mind before it was too late, } O’Connor would not consider the pro { osition for a minute. When Mr. Carey declared he was just as firmly con- vinced as ever that the merger prop- osition was the only sound proposi- tion for baseball in this section, O'Con- nor declared he would go ahead, and later through a third party announced his_application for the franchise. ‘O'Connor’s home is in Windsor Locks, Conn., and every winter he usually is employed in Springfield. It was his fine backstopping several years ago that earned him promotion to the Pittsburgh club of the National league. #e stayed with the Pirates long enough for them to win the National league championship and world's title In 1905, He was turned over to the Kansas City club of the American as sociation and last spring jumped to the Pittsburgh club of the Federal league, where he obtained 2 three- year.contract. Two years of this con- tract have vet to rum, but since the declaration of peace in the. baseball world, O'Connor doesn't know just where he is_at. However, he feels he will be able to make satisfactory arrangements if the Eastern associa- tion operates. Mr. Carey says he does not blame O’Connor in any way for taking up the chance to secure a franchise in Spring- fleld. “I am unable to see vet,” he declared, “that there is anything but the merger in New England. The pub- lic has been clamoring for the merger, the press has been boosting it, and you can’t convince me, now that the op- portunity is at hand, that the public doesn’t want it. I still have hcpes, and honestly believe that we will get justice in baseball, and I feel confi- dent that the merger will succeed.” * Judging from the enigmatical reply I received by Jack Zeller from Secre- tary Farrell of the National associa- tion, any territory outside of the Eastern association is open to all and no favors asked. Zeller wired Farrell asking if he had the right to recelve an application for a franchise from Frank H.

When asked about it Mr. Carey did not deny the story. It is understood that Mr. Carey felt if he obtained the lease, the charge would be made that he was trying to block baseball in Springfleld for his own interests, and that would not listen very well to the investigation commit- tee of the National association. Fur- ther, it is stated he would prefer to go before the committee without any en- tanglements and so kept his hands off Hampden park. ONE ARM TWIRLER ACCOMPLISHED FEAT y Pitched No Hit, No Run Game. Pitcher Dai Probably no more interesting feat has been recorded in the history of the game of baseball than that accom- plished by Pitcher Dailey of the Cleve- land club, then in the National league, who 32 years ago established a rec- ord by pitching a no-hit, no-run game against the Phliadelphia team. Some of the pitchers have placed their names ih baseball’s hall of fame by their ability to pull through nine in-. nings of baseball without allowing a batter to reach first base. Dailey’s performance appears, on the surface of things, to have no more material value to the average base- ball enthusiast than that of several other pitchers who have duplicated his feat. But the fact that Dailey, al- though a first class pitcher in his day, was possessed of only one arm adds to the importance of his accom- plishment. s There have been few one-armed pitchers or other baseball players and Dailey must necessarily be placed alone as the only one-armed pitcher in the history of baseball to attain such heights "as those which attend ! the winner of a no-hir, no-run game. Lee Meadows, the Louis Cardinal pitcher, is considered somewhat in the light of a freak because 6f the fact his eyes are weak. and necessitate his wearing glasses on the baseball field, but such a handicap cannot be com- pared with that of the old Cleveland pitcher. It is a fact, although it is not gen- erally known, that Jimmy Archer, the fanfous Chicago Cub catcher, has a weak arm, and it is his right arm, too. This member of Archer's anatomy is fully an inch shorter than his life arm and it is badly scarrgd. When he was about 19 years of age Archer, then an immigrant from Dublin. was working in a cooperage shop in Toronto. While discharging his duties one day Jimmie slipped and fell so that his right arm was plunged into.a vat of boiling sap. The skin and quite a part of the flesh were torn away when the cloth- ing was removed, and. for - weeks Archer was in a hospital, where it was thought for a time that the in- Jjured member would have to be am- putated. However, the surgeons man- aged to save the arm, but Archer still carries the scars. SPORTING NOTES. I Brewn's defeat by Washington State at Pasadena New Year’s day only em- phasizes the fact that high-class foot- ball is spread out over the whole country and that picking All-Amer- ican elevens as a one man’s job is ut- terly absurd. Wilbert Robinson, the manager of the Brooklyn Nationals, says he is go- ing to take a leaf out of the book of the football coaches, “pick the weak spots and then hammer them out of existence.” It is a fine job hammering the weak spots with a 42 c. m. on the mound “pitching ‘em by. Those who conceived that the bars were going to be let down a little way on summer baseball or on the strict- ness of the amateur rule missed their guess. The men who rule sport in most of our colleges have ideals and they propose to live up to them. For- ward and not backward is the real trend in college and amateur sport. Eelecting all-star teams for sections is hard enough, and then should be undertaken only by men who have had a chance to see all teams play. When a coach of a team does not know who Is playing the backfield position for his team in a certain game, it is easy to see how possible it is for even experts to err in their judsment of the merits of a plaver's game. There are those who belleve that Charles Barrett will again add repu- tation by his absence from the Cormell eleven next fall, because they insist he made the team last fall what it] was, and this will be made plain next fall. Without Barrett, they claim, the Ithacans could never have made their ‘wonderful “comebacks” in the Wash- ington and Lee and the Princeton games. Evidently Pack McFarland is not able to get his prize in the fight game, for he has turned promoter and now will stage anotker six-day bike race in the Windy_City.

COUNTRY LOST TO TEUTONS AN SERVIA'S King Peter of Servia has taken re- fuge in Italy. The aged monarch had refused repeatedly to leave his army, and it was only at the urgent en- treaty of his son, Prince Rezent Al- exander, that he at last agreed to go into exile. The prince said to, his father that it would be better for him to preserve his strength, so that he might be able, after his health had been restored, to return to his coun- try at the head of a reorganized army. “I give no more orders,” said King Peter in an interview. “It 1is the and bladder ‘remedy, is soon realized and that it stands the highest for its remarkable results in the most . dis- tressing cases. “Symptoms of Kidney Troyble !of everl;;lm‘ x'tlu.( x';'fm. ifler Trom annoying biadder troubles, frequently passing water night and day, smart- ing or irritation in passing, brick-dust or sediment, headache, backache, lame back, dizziness, poor 4 ion, sleep- lessness, nervousness, heart disturb- ance due to bad kidney trouble, skin eruptions from bad blood, neuralgia, rheumatism, lumbago, bloating, irri- iability, worn-out feeling, lack of am- bition, may be .loss of flesh or sallow complexion, kidney trouble in its worst form may be stealing upon you.
