UTTERLY uNcALLeD FOR
Was the Roast Given the Home Ease bail
 Team by ,he Commercial.

i
 Wednesday afternoon the Commar- cial, gave the members of tie '. M. c. A. base ball team severe "roast, 1 for the manner in which they uIaved ball with the Mexican team Tuesday afternoon
 The criticism, if deserved, was ut- terly uncalled for. and is decidedly poor taste. The Commercials article begins as follows:
 Dixon was rotten.
 Calvin was not i'll condition. ! Brewster was rattled Franklin was awful Baldwin was worse.
 Yersterdav' ball game bet ween the |. NJ. c. A. team and the Mexi- cans was marked by II rottenness which Was surprising"
 It wound up by charging Murphy, the umpire, with showing gross i'm partiality to the home team and giving he Mexicans the worst of 1t ut every opportunity.
 The GRAPHIC maintains that if the members of the home club were pro- fessional ball players and playe ball fer money and had been such as to deserve "roastf'' then 1t would be the duty of newspaper to critieise them; but, instead, our boys play simply for amusement, and for the 1 amusement of the base ball loving l public. The players neglect their work to participate in these games and sacrifice themselves financially as well as physically to afford pleas- ure to those who enjoy ball game. and not one of them gets n cent for playing.
 The game criticised was far above average. and when II is taken into consideration thnt the home team is composed of aiEateure, without practice, while their opponents were professionals. traveliug over the country and playing for the gate re- eeipts, the playing done by the home team was ext ellent-the score being lG to F. in favor of the Mexicans at { he end of 10 innings.
 Ii either Of the clubs deserved criti- eism fl should have been the Mexi, cans, for better work was naturally eNpecteG of them. The playing of the home team could not have been so very rotten. since the profess ionals only bent them one run in ten innings.
 As is usually the case, our contem- porary is inst n little billions, and vOmited forth some of its tile an he home ball players because they were home people, and 1t seems to be the Commercials policy to give a"Ilack- eye to every home enterprise, eli her of a business of social nature, hat is attempted ny cur citizens.
 Do our boys iusticel Encourage theIr playing and with few more practice games we will have club that can be defeated but by few professional teams.

London WIS off again today, but the public
was stin willing to purchase, and rs the re-
suit there were more higher prices, Sugar sell

were undreAmed OF two weeks ago. or course
there was the usual exhibition Of n tendency
10 sell on the part Of the tiInid bulls and the
long holders who were willing 10 accept small
profits, and this caused slight reactionary
movement. although prices up TO Early in the
afternoon were only :raciionally lower.
Among the pleasant signs of prosperity are
TO Le counted the evident improvement IN the

this betierment will become sufficiently
lronounc cd within the next few weeks TO ex-
cite the lu,ing of iron warrants and the
stocks of the iron and steel companies on
speculation. This would give Wall street and
the country in general new bull card.

question OF low many stocks Europe will buy

extensive scale.
In speaking of the present market con
ditions, sullivan Bros. g. Co. say:

They are buying on bulgos for quick turns

Ryan and Mcintyre.

Henry NJ. Ryan. managing director of
the Ajax, was in Mammoth last Friday
on one of his regular trips of inspection.
says the Tintic Miner. Samuel Mcintyre
who owns 115.000 out of a possible 9OO.-
600 shares of the capital stock of that
company, was also in Mammoth the
same day. and thereby hangs tale. 1t
seems that by reason of an order made
b. the board of directors some time
since no one, no matter whether he be
stakeholder or not, is permitted to
descend into the Ajax workings and in
s9ect its rich slopes and levels with
out a, written permit from II. NJ, the
above-named managing director. This
cast-iron rule was violated last Friday
by Mr.. Mcintyre being allowed to roam
through the underground workings of
Ajax by the employees in charge without
the required piece of paper, and as a re-
suit three of the Ajax employees are
hunting new jobs. Mr.. Ryan's rage over
the infraction of the rules is reported to
have been strong and deep. but the re-
port of a personal encounter between the
two gentlemen is incorrect. The proba-
bilities are, however, that Stakeholder
Samuel Mcintyre his paid his last visit
to the Ajax for a long time to come.
