THE GIANTS PLAY sTuPIDLY.
Chicago Wins an Unexpected Victory
From the New Yorks.

Chicago, June 1S.-New York held to-
days game safe until the ninth inning
when the home team, by taking advantage
Of the mistakes of judgment made by the
visitors, won out an unexpected victory.
The game was literally thrown away by
the stupidity of Freedman's men. Both
Meekin and Taylor pitched gilt-edged ball
from start to finish. but their support was
poor. The weather was perfect and the
crowd numbered 10000. The score:

CALL FOR HOGS GOOD
Cattle Steady With Light
Supply.

The Wichita hog market yesterday was
a full S cents lower, in line with the
rest Of the western markets It was a
day of lower tone and tendencies all along
the line, and this market was entirely in
conformity with the rest Of the receiving
points. This market was given out as
&c lower, with the close Of the day be-
fore, Wednesday, and this was amply
strong as compared with the reports Civ
en- out by the rest Of the live stock cen
tiers. S4.12h was the top price of the
day for car hogs, and one bunch of wagon
.aogs also brought this figure. There was
not large day of trading, but what was
handled sold out readily and at as good
prices as possible, the rest of the mar
kets considered. The average weight for
this market showed up 247 pounds, which

The run of the average daily receipts.
The receipts of hogs at most Of the west
crn points were fair yesterday, but this
market showed up a slight falling off
rom the regular daily run. What hogs
appeared were eagerly sought for by the
various buyers and most of it was taken
at once. There was nothing in of especial
attractiveness, but such as came was ia
ken at once, and at prices comparatively
good. 1t was a light day altogether and
no quality was seen which could tone up
the market any better than was regis
tered, the outside influences being as they

intimation from both parties. there is
nothing in the rules of International US

that the president sincerely hopes and

was at the yards yesterday with a car of
heavy hogs. which sold on the close at

eran stockman of that district and knows
very thoroughly the conditions prevailing
throughout that territory. He says there

that country than a year ago, and while
there is a very good showing Of cattle,
there are not many being fed right now.
Ed Weidline shipped in from Augusta
z car load Of medium hogs which sold
at a good bulk price.
The rest of the receipts were the cattle
above mentioned and one car of hogs re-
ceived from Burchield & Cornell of An

jim & Co, of Derby. which were yarded
late the night before.

New American RasebalI League

Chicago, Oct. 12.-After making several
minor changes in the constitution of the
new American Baseball League, COM
posed of all the clubs of the late West
ern League, the league representatives in
session here adjourned today until March
Il. At the next meeting the new direc-
tors will take up the work Of arranging
the schedule. President B. B. Johnson
announced that it had been almost def
nitely decided that next seasons games
will open April q. p and IS. The new
players which each club is permitted to
claim was reduced to 10. with the addi-
tional provision that the list of players
OF each team be revised monthly by the
board. The questions of revising the cir
cult and forming clubs in Chicago and
Cleveland were not considered and, ac-
cording to President Johnson, it is prob
able the circuit will remain the same as
last year. All the directors were salts
fed that an improvement could be made

next year, and this resolution was adopt
ed almost without a dissenting vote.

Chicago, Oct. IA slack export demand
and disappointing cables weakened wheat
today. The market was nervous and ex-
citable throughout, but downhin one,

Corn suffered from too much profit-tak-
ing and closed Ac lower Oats closed a
shade higher Liquidation burdened pro-
visions. Pork lost 121ac. Lard, 5G7lsc.
An absence of the war spirit that dom
mated the Liverpool market yesterday
put wheat traders here in a bearish mood
at the start. December opened 1-SG1-4c
lower al 70 3-4G7Sc. ad during the first
half Of the session sold off to p 3-SG1-2c.
The decline was marked by a good deal
of irregularity, however, as short sellers
were very cautious and the scalpers sell
dom failed to accept 1-l6c profits if the
market went that much in their favor and
then halted a second. Finally when the
market got down to put price, the bulls
picked up a little courage and succeeded
in forcing an uDturn, December advanc-
ing to 70 1-Sc Good outside buying and
heavy clearances at the seaboard help
ed the advance. The improvement was
short-lived, as the selling was of sufi-
cient volume to meet all demands, and
the price gradually slipped back again to

demand accelerated the decline. Receipts
