Shreveport September 20.-(Special)- With an injured hand, Billie Campbell tried to land a victory for Birmingham this afternoon, but the plucky little twirler was Inflated and received the worst clouting In his baseball career. Eighteen clean line hits were piled up by the Pirates, and while the game was young 1t was easily seen that Bobby Giks' gang had the game cinched, and they proceeded to lay on the wood.
 Bf! bang! plunk went the hits in every direction and across the plate the Pirates came in hocks.
 Two of the fearful raps sent the ball whirling over left field fence and this pair of home runs netted just three runs Graffus administered the first home run drive when no one was on base. and Wikert came in at the nnlsh and drove one man ahead of him across the plate by his high fly which dropped over the back yard fence at least forty feet from the ground.
 Poor Billie kept working and plugging away, but 1t was no use, for the game had gone and the few runs which came in merely served to let us close the sea son with pleasant tate. In the third inning Duffy hit safe after two men were out. and McAndrews followed suit. Vaughan then popped up an easy one which got past Beck, and Duffy scored. The next two runs came in the third | on Lawler's single and Kanzler getting safe on a felder's choice. Campbell hit safe and scored Lawler and an infeld drive scored Kanzler. That was the best the Barons could do and soon after the bats and balls were packed away and the homeward march began.
 Campbell was almost helpless through out the game, and his easy balls were batted by the Shrcveporters at will. All the other pitchers except Crabell are "all in" and as the Parson could not work on Sunday. Campbell tried to do the best he could
 Crabell addressed the First Baptist Sunday school here today and preached an eloquent sermon in the same church tonight. He made quite an impression and the church was packed to hear him. He preached a revival sermon and sev- eral persons asked that he pray for them.
 The Birmingham club leaves for home tomorrow and will arrive before day Tuesday morning. All of the players will return except Crabell, who will go | to Hot Springs on a pleasure trip. He | is accompanied by his wife. As several of the players are crippled and others sick. it has been decided to call off the Nashville exhibition game.

London. September 20.-With the crisis in the Balkan, added to the hardening of money rates, the operators on the stock exchange last week observed ex- treme caution.

 The weakness in the iron market. both here and in the United States. also tended to lower prices. Business in the Ameri- can market was of the smallest propor- tions. Atchison and Union Pscific show. ing the most marked decline of the whole list. Canadian railroads also closed lower on the weeks dealings.

CLOTH MARKET SLOW.
Unless Cotton Comes Forward Manu- facturers Will Have Trying Time.

Manchester, September 20.-Business on the cloth market last week was slow and disappoinAhg and the turnover was poor. Isolated hnes were booked for In dia The China trade ran chiefly to Fancies and there were few inquiries for staples, though a large business is await Ing more favorable conditions. 4 mis- eellaneous South American trade was done.
 Unless cotton comes forward more freely than is expected, the next four weeks are likely to prove the most trying that the manufacturers have yet expe- rienced.
 Yarns were featureless. The users were cautious and confined their purchases to immediate requirements.

Brazil at the Worlds Fair.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. 3O.-Work has
been commenced on the construction
of the Brazilian pavilion, which Is to
be one of the largest and finest for
eign government buildings at the
worlds fair 1t will cost $3.50 900
more than the costilest of the state
buildings. Modelled on lines severely
chaste and yet with some of the Span
ish renaissance so typical of South
America, it's facade will have just
enough of the ornamental to express
outwardly a pleasing decorative spirit
Viewed at a distance the building will
look not unlike a model state house
with it's central dome rising to a
height of 1872 feet. This huge archi-
tectural canopy will be set off with
staff figures in statuary. Main en-
frances are to be placed in the north
and south elevations while the low
domes at each end will eserve to COW
er cOmmOdiOus lOggias.

DEFENDS
HEATH
Ink Contractor Goes
to Rescue,
SAYS BRISTOW IS MISTAKEN
Ink Bought by Government Was Of a
Superior Quality and Absolutely
indeIibIe.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 30.-Wyborg, of
the Ault & Wyborg CO., printing ink
manufa acturers, this morning declared
that Bristows report on the postal
frauds is entirely unjust to Perry
Heath. He says that Heath and
Louis should have life positions for
their selection of inks. He says the
statement made by Bristow's report
that they bought an excess of $4,000
worth of cancelling ink in one year is
not true as the greatest amount his
company ever sold in one year was
$4,000. He admits that the price was
several cents pound higher than
usual, but that it was the regular
price, also that the ink is made by a
secret process and is absolutely in
delible which saves the government
thousands of dollars each year, as it
effectively prevents the reuse of can
celled stamps.
