THE COMING CONTESTS BETWEEN DALI
LAS AND GALVESTON.
The lovers of base ball in this city are
wrought up to the highest pitch Of in
terest over the three league games to be
played on the home grounds, on Friday,
Saturday and Sunday, between the re-
organized Brown Stockings and the
Gulf Citys, OF Galveston. The latter
will arrive i'm Dallas to-day or to-mor-
row, with the prestige OF having
won five successive games two from
CorSicana and three from Fort Worth,
the latter proving Waterloo defeats for
the hitherto mvincible tossers of the
City OF Heights, the scores standing 49,,
l7-S and 20-3, all in favor of Galveston,
which gives to the Gulf Citys decidedly
commanding lead for the State pennant,
But Dallas, just now, is somewhat pre-
tentiouS herself in the race for the
championship. The best business men
Of the city have come to the front
and aided the club in such
tangible and practicable manner as t.
place it ON sound footing and with Hat
tering prospects for success. The play
ers are improved wonderfully in prac
! ticc, and materially strengthened other
wise, and Galveston will have to play
| the best kind of ball to capture Il trophy
| From the tone of admirers of the game
and the friends and supporters of tnt
| club, ii Is evident that big crowds will
witness the contests, which are NOR
| deserving on the part of the club thar
ever before.

with the strength of the market. Favor
able news from the west concerning
crops and the movement OF new grain
also induced purchases for long account
At the opening the majority of active
shares were higher, but before the first
call reaction set in and the improve
ment was partially lost. Subsequently
western orders to buy made their APP
pearance, and there was an advance
of Il to 2A per cent, the latter
in Lackawanna. Near p. III. a
moderate selling movement set in, and
there was decline OF u to "a. Lacka-
wanna, Northwestern, Missouri Pacific
and New York Central became most
prominent in the downward movement
In the final transactions there was Il
fractional recovery. The market was
very quiet, sales being only 20i,l27
shares, the smallest total for some weeks
past. There was little, if any, excite
meut, and the tameness of speculation
was subject of much comment
in the face of Yesterdays bank
failure. Compared with last night, clos
ing prices are n to l7s per cent. higher.
except for Jersey Central, which is y
| per cent. lower.
