NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings In All
The Leading Stocks.

New York, Nov. 4.--The stock market
today discredited the prophets. Ii has
been pointed out with great precision ny
multitude of advisors What the exact
course of the stock market was to be
following the election. Thcfe was TO DO
an immediate bulge in prices, helped by
.nanipulatiCn tactics, thus making the
new outside buyers pay the highest prices
for their stocks and giving the largest
profits to the inside sellers. Afterwards
the pressure Of realizing sales would IN
eVitably tell on the pllce level ana
sharp reaction must be expected untli tne
gathering Of forces sufhclent 70 resume
an upward movement. The extent OF the
advance established for Americans IN
London before trading began in New York
today confirmed this view III the MINDS
of many operators in stocks and lhey act
ed in accordance with the view Sel1nS
from these sources was in such volume, IN
fact. that few of the opening prices here
were as nigh as they had been in Lon

lied the common opinion. After mOmen-
taly pause at the end of the first hour,
when the buving orders seemed TO nave

ing for the rest of the DAY was persistent
and determined ana ranged over Vide
field of choice in the list OF stocks. The
dimensions of the orders executed in this
movement gave evidence of transactions
by operators of the largest resources. The
sentiment Of the country as expressed IN
the elections was construed as able,
to capital and as opposed to radical re-
adjustments of established methods or
relations between capital and labor and
capital employments. The Outburst of
speculative enthusiasm which resulted
proved a surprise to the most careful OBJ
servers. Beyond the election news there
was not much of immediate consequence
in the news to account for the lays do
ings. The closing tone was very anin.at-
ed ard buoyant and last prices We're close
to the highest of the dav. That level was

DOINGS In THE WORLD OF SPORTS.
Chance May Quit.
Chicago White Sox.

Chicago, Nov. frank Chance
manager OF the White Sox, before leav-
ing to spend the winter in California,
it is reported. did not even say a tel
ephonic goodby to President Murphy,
chief owner of the team, and thus the
story Of a distressing international
strife is heightened.
The manager said he did not intend
to seek en- interview with Murphy or in
any way recognize his existence, and
as the latter Gi1 not seek further con-
versation will his playing chief the
breach may Ne considered as Widened
ifnme4&ura}ly.
Just what started the trouble nobody
seems to know. 1t came about through
an al "ument during The summer and
was renewed onca or twice. Then after
the big series ended it reached. it is
said a really acute stage with the re-
suit that the leaders arc not even on
nolGins terms.
Neither side had much to say about
the matter; Il is said several important
trades are hanging fire, but Chance
does not seem to care. He IS not going
to bother "bout thom. Chance will
spend week in Frisco, and then Il
week in Fresno where Chances moth
er resides, and still another motoring
along tho coast, and ti?en quarters Will
ne taken at Ocean Park for the re-
mainder Of the winter.
Chance appeared to place considera-
bic reliance in the report that an eff
fort would be made to trade him during
the winter to the Cincinanti club, and
repeated his statement that he would
be glad to go there. In addition he
| made it plain that the next move in
the matter would have to he made by
| President Murphy

rather than that. am going to buy an

treat his players better.
"But as I told him, he may think

pitchers who have worked at least four
consecutive years ought to settle the
question.
The real leaders are Young, Griffith

record is remarka bic especially so when
it is considered that for many years he
was with a team that landed very low
down the column.
In considering such a table it is we'll
to remember that a pitcher has to rely
largely on his support. A pitcher with a

pitcher who is properly backed up by
