Whisk’s Hard Luck Helped Tutter’s Owner and Trainer Out of Long Standing Rut Alterman and Sieatas Profit by Another’s Misfortune on ‘. Yonkers Track. By Vincent Treanor. HEN Tufter was the Melrose W selling stakes at Emplre yester- day afternoon at Yonkers, he broke a streak of bad luck for Owner H. Alterman and Tra\ner Ernie Sletas that has extended back a long while, or ever since they lost their two- year-old Ege In a seHing race, It didn't look as if they ever would get out of the rut, so that when the break came yesterday neither had the nerve to wager on the gelding. Racing is a funny game, full of ups and downs, principally downs, and all one needs to get complete enjoyment out of the sport is plenty of money. Alterman nd Sietas are not the best financially equipped owner and train- er on the tracks, so that standing the disappointments of more than a month wasn't any too easy for them. Tufter profited In the race by the bad luck of Whisk at the post. He stumbled when the barrier went up, and was hit by the webbing which spoiled his chance to get to the front where he likes to run Pool rode Whisk cleverly after that. He didn’t rush his mount up to the leaders Instead, he moved up gradually, out even this tuld on him when he caught Tufter and he stopped. Sietas how- ever thinks the result would have been been the same if Whisk hadn't guffered the loss of ground at the Blart, but that's another story Tufter is a tough horse. He was used as a saddle horse at Lynnewood, the Philadelphia establishment of his breeder, J. H. Widener, until he was a four-year-old. Howard Lewis then took him in hand and won « good race on the flat at Pimilco, at which e then Tufter, point he was sold, Sin ch was bred in by Mr Widene won or more races in the colors of various owners and is a shifty sort of a plater in any kind of going. His dam, Rose Pomp- pon, is the dam of stake winners in France Clarence Kummer had a tough time getting Roulette home in the second race. She has not been out in a long time and had no early speed. When she got away, however, she wanted to lean over on them. In the strete! when he had to apply the whip, the filly responded, but if Kummer had been at work on her all the way the chances are she would have finished among the ‘ rans." elaime three-year- rie out of the second 200. This is a good-looking that should more than am Leut geldin pay his way, and being by Charles O'Malley, one of tne crack trish sires, he is bred well enough to suit the most fastidious Reports from I are to the ef- fect that Joseph &. Windener |s Freatly pleased with his recent pur- chase, rou, by pometick which left for this country on the 15th, Sweeper Il. was a winner of the 2,000 Gnineas and other good and he has been a conspicuous success in the stud for the opportunities he has had. At every French meeting colts and fillies by him are being returned winners. At a recent meeting at Amiens the three-year-old Swell, by Sweeper, won the Prix du Bols de Boulogne of 10,500 francs over the 2,000 metre course, On same day the Prix races in England, the Arthur Cordell, for two-year-olds, was won by M. Dalli's Flowerday, by Sweeper. The Prix Albert Catoire of 7,000 francs, at the same meeting, was won by Frank H, Hitchcock's two-year-old Cicerono by his own hosse, Sandy Hook, a son of Rock Band and the Meddler mare Tangle. The dam of Cicerono ts the Yankee dam Cicely, which was out of Caout- «.ouc, by Caloro, and the next dam, Issaqueena, by Alarm. Mr, Hitchcock has bought the fine aire, Sire Aux Larmos, by Rabelais, and he is now on his way across the Atlantic, Sire Aux Larmos was a good race horse, and has sired many winners in France A very nice filly by him is a yearling at the Nursery Stud of August Belmont out of the Meddler mare Meddlesome Il., waich was sold at the Macomber sale last ‘August and was one of the bargains of that vendue. Sire Aux Larmos is a typical St, Simon and ought to erdss well with our American mares. cele BRITISH STARS UNABLE TO SPARE THE TIME LONDON, July 18 (Associated Press.) was officially announced last eve- ning that Great Britain had conceded Spain a walkover in the Davis Cup lawn tennis competition, Major A, R.

IN WALL STREET An Intimate View of Financial Men and Affairs. oe By R. R. Batson. Nothing has been more significant in the present stock market situation than the indifference displayed toward the railroad and coal etrikes. Government efforts to settle the coal strike have thus far proved to be prac- tically fruitless. Induatry is cow becoming more or less seriously aftectha. The railroad strike is daily growing more serious. Free movement of freight traffic—and it is on this trafic and not on passenger iraffic that nearly every railroad derives its net income—is being seriously ham- pered. But the stock market effect \s practically negligible, Three of the largest commission houses in Wa.) Street have been can- vassed for the purpose of ascertain- ing just how the various strikes now on, including the textile strike, as well as the coal and railroad strikes, have affected the market commit- ments of their clients, These three houses do a large part of the busi- ness of some of the biggest stock operators now dealing im the market. They state that when the strikes be- gan to Assume a degree of impor- tance more serious than was origi- nally believed possible or probable, certain large operators began to put “feelers” out by selling large quanti- ties of railroad stocks. It was dis- covered that these stocks were easily absorbed. Evidently, speculative or investment sentiment at large had not been hurt. These same three houses report that in so far as their somewhat smaller and fess speculative accounts are con- cerned—those representing real inves- tors and the average trader—no evi- dence has been found that the strikes now iu progress are viewed with alarm. As a matter of fact it is stated that on the part of the aver- age investor and trader absolutely no evidence of selling on account of strike conditions has yet been dis- closed. SPAIN TO PLAY IN FINAL ROUND AT GERMANTOWN British Isles Team Defaults In Davis Cup Lawn Tennis Matches. Davis Cup plans moved swiftly, through many quick changes yester- day, First the British Isies team registered a default to Spain in the semi-final round. That resulted in a shifting of the final round matches of the preliminary series to the turf of ‘he Germantown Cricket Club, Phil- adelphia, The dates announced are ‘Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Aug, 17, 18 and 19. , The first move in this sequence of events, and one wholly unexpected to the Davis Cup Committee, was the arrival of a cable message trom London which read as follows: Regret unable to secure repre- sentative team for America. British Isles scratch to Spain, as present in- tention of the latter is to compete in final" There also was a message from Gerald L. Patterson, Captain of the Australasian team, expressing regret that the Australasians were opposed to granting the week's delay in the playing of the finals which the British Lawn Tennis Association had re- quested. He stated that it was the desire of the team of his nation to compete in the American doubles championship at Longwood, Boston, beginning on Monday, Aug. 21, and that this intention precluded their waiting for England, with the result (hat the final clash would be held during the same week. Likewise, the \ustralasians are averse to an ar- rengement which would entail stren- cus matches directly prior to the Davis Cup challenge round and the Vnited States all-comers singles chomptonshtp The Davis ever, had There are two important factors sustaining the market's present po: tion tn the face of disturbing strike conditions: First, it is nearly everywhere be- lieved that the results of the strikes will be more beneficial than harm- ful; that is, strikes are considered a: but another step in the process of deflation from war conditions and that when the labot atmosphere be- comes more clarified the cost sheets of railroad, steel, textile and other companies will be on a much more satisfactory basis than they have been for the last several! years. Secondly, shares of the better es- tablished companies, 01 of those companies whose dividends are in no serious danger of reduction, appear attractive in view of monetary con- ditions. The official rate for call money, repayable on demand, is 3 per cent. but in the outside market money repayable on demand is ob- tainable at 2% per cent. And in the time money market money can be obtained for ninety days at 4% per cent. or less. Stocks that appear to be on a solid dividend basis and that yield from 5% to 6% per cent. or more could hardly have @ bette. mar- ket foundation, Pending the outcome of the various strikes now in progress, various amall pools are endeavoring to whip up pub- Me interest in several specialties, one of which is Baldwin Locomotiy In this stock they have ample am- munition for a bul! movement, but in- like so many other shares they are unable to attract the sympathy of the management of Baldwin, For the greater part of last year there was a dearth of orders comin, to the Baldwin company. But -he company was so strong financially and its investments were so sound that no difficulty was experienced in keeping dividend payments at a 7 per cent, rate on the common stock, At the present time the company is operating at not more than 35 per cent. of capacity. Yet dividends are being earned nearly twice over, Pools are endeavoring to create a speculative following in the stock, but the management of the company and Samuel Vauclain, the President, al- most totally disregard daily market fluctuations. They are totally out of sympathy with the efforts of pools. It is the belief of Vauciain that the 200,000 shares of Baldwin Locomotive outstanding will finally be taken out of the class of shares that are con- Cup Committee, how- planned for contingencies of this character. As the annual tournament on the turf of the Casino at Newport, R. L, was scheduled for the week of Aug. 14, and therefore a final on the same field was {m- possible, {t switched the serles to de- cide the challenging nation which will meet the Americans to the course of the Germantown Cricket Club, Phil- adelphia, where the big stands for the national tournament already are in process of construction The Spanish Lawn Tennis Assocl- ation was officially notified of the de- fault of the British Isles by cable last night. It also was requested to name the players of its team, which is ex- pected to include Manuel Alonso and Count de Gomar, and to state when the players will sail for this country. The reply to this message {s looked for by the officials to-day In connection with the Davis Cup matches {it was disclosed that the committee had practically decided upon three of the players who will make up the American team. They are William T. Tilden 2d, William M, Johnston and R. Norris Williams 2d. According to the present views of the committee, Tilden and Johnston will be used exclusively in the singl ‘They regard the singles matches of chief importance, figuring that the doubles may be lost without greatly affecting the chances of the United States to maintain its holding of the international trophy.
