BADER TO PITCH AGAINST ASMLANDS AT MOOSUr All the way from Jewett City comes the long awaited Ashland ball club to play Moosup, this Sunday, September 26th, on the Carpat Grounds, Moosup, at 3 p. m. in the first game of a three game series. Hinie Devon will be the official umpire. Moosup is going to show Ashland that there is a lot of players that they have not heard of and who are going to pro- duce the goods Sunday. Moosup knows that Asland has a good twirler in Chet| Nichols, the best seen in this section, but Ashiand_will need a better one for Sun- day. King Bader, of Toronto-Ontario League will toe the slab for Moosup. Moosup's players are hitting around .340 to .410. EING Moosup doesn’t hear anything from Plainfield about the deciding game of their series. What is the matter, Plain- field forgetting it?

Several leading colleges of this section will meet teams of calibre enough to tost their early season progress.

Sept. 24.—Trading in stocks ¥!was again influenced to an extra- nary exient by the campaign against commbdity prices. Shares of various in- dustrial companies which are likely to be affected by the movement recorded furth- er_severe declines on lack of support. The reaction was materially accelerat- ed by heavy short selling, that element evidently proceeding on the assumption that Jower price schedules necessarily foreshadow further reduction or suspen- ion of divideni® Liquidation or sales for the long ac- ount originated in Jarge part, according to reports, from western and other re- mote ons of the country, where ex- tensive price-cutting of many leading ples is in full swing.

Chicago, Sept. 24.—Slashing of prices extended to wheat today and resulted in a spectacular flurry. The market clos- ed wild 10 3-¢ to 12 1-4 cents net lower with December 225 to 225 1-2 and March 2.15 1-4. Corn lost 1 to 2 1-2 cents, oats finished 3-4 off to 1-8 cent up, and pro- visions down 2 1-2 to twenty cents. Heavy selling with Which the wheat market opened gave evidence that senti- ment had at last been influenced by tne sharp reduction of prices. for other com- modities, and especially by the fact that judged by ordinary standards the quo- tations for wheat were much out of line with those current for other grain. Here- tofore, export demand for breadstuffs has been sufficient to make the wheat market climb instead of fall, but today for the first time of late an-important part of the selling was ascribed to Europ- can sources. Liberty export busness was noted later, but failed to have the usua effect. Besides domestic ‘millers were said to be holding off, waiting for flonr demand to develop. It was said also that farmers both southwest and north- West were selling more freely. Under such circumstances, the market gave way rap- 1d1¥ at the ‘last and finished at the low. est point of the day.

INDIANS SHUTOUT WHITE SOX BOOSTING LEAD O GAME Cleveland, O., Sept. 24.—Walter Mails, Cleveland’s left handed recruit pitcher, was too much for the Chicago White Sox today and they lost their oppertunity to take the lead in the American League championship in this series by losing to the Indians, 2 to 0. Chicago is now one and one-half games behind the leaders, and were they to Win tomorrow's game, they would be one half game behind Cleveland. =, Mails had the White Sox ‘batters bad- ly puzzled and won his fifth consecutive victory sinca joining the local team. He| six men, the hits coming in the first and | innings. Jackson collected a. single in the first With two men out. In the fourth, Eddie Collins and Felsch ga- thered one each. The local southpaw was in danger only once. That was in the fifth inning, when by phenomenal pitching he extri- cated himself. After striking out Ris-| berg, Mails lost control long enough to issue three of his five bases on balls filling the sacks. He then steadied him- self and retired the side by fanning Weaver and Eddie Collins in succession, It was in this inning that the White Sox came their nearest to the home plate. ‘With this exception, only two men reached second base—FEddie Collins, in the firsi, and fourth innings. The sid> iwas retired in order in five of the nine innings, The Indians bunched six of their nine hits in the first two innings ana scored the only runs of the game. From then on Faber pitched airfight ball and only four Cleveland players reached first base. Smith got as far as second in the eighth when he and Gardner singled. Spectacular fielding by Weaver, Jack- son, Smith Sewell and Wambsganss cut down several hits. Approximately 20,000 fans saw the contest. No spectators were permitted on the playing field with the exception of the seats along both foul lines. Federal authorities assisted the police today in the war on ticket scalpers. In- ternal revenue department agents were stationed at League Park to apprehend those Who are not turning inthe war tax on the tickets sold.
