NEW YORK, March S1.-Cotton was less ac-
tive today. The estimated undertone was
somewhat easier. Prices yielded only slightly
but with covering of shorts yesterday there
was much less buoyancy to the market. Liver
pool bought some cotton to undo straddles.
Southern spot markets did fair there was
fair demand at the end Of each month to cover
commitments for actual cotton made by spot
dealers and exporters. This demand was much
more easily supplied than the trade had ex-
pected. No rain reported in Texas, but
Oklahoma had many showers

LOCAL BOWLERs At STATE
MEET NEXT WEEK

Henry Leitner, of this city, men,
ber of the executive committee of the
State Bowling association, received
word from Columbus last night which
stated that the dates for the local
teams who will bowl at the state
bowling tournament now In progress
at Columbus, had been changed. The
time for the locals to roll had been
set for Friday night but under the re-
vised schedule, the Acmes will roll
next Tuesday night, Jan. 18, and the
Hardly Ables and the Stetsons the
following evening. The teams will
leave this city for Columbus on the
day they roll on the Pennsy Columbus
special at 1929 a. IN.
The date of the rolling of the locals
was changed so that the local member
of the executive board would not
have to wait several days for the
meeting. The executive committee
will convene next Tuesday afternoon
at which time the prizes for the tour
nament will be selected. On Wednes-
day afternoon, Jan. 20, at 4 o'clock
the State Bowling association officers
will hold another meeting at which
the officers for the ensuing year will
be elected. The place for the next
state tournament will also be chosen
at this time. The desired change in
the schedule will see many Canton
ians in Columbus next week working
hard to land next years tournament
for this city.

JIMMY COOPER FAILED
TO FOOL BILL SMINK

Jimmy Cooper of this city figured
in play that occasioned a mystery
and a resultant laugh" says Alex
McCraeken, Canton outfielder last
season. Last summer Cooper was
with East Liverpool playing at Shar-
on. He was on first base with no
score Miller, who was catching for
Sharon, figured that Cooper would
steal and had pitch out. Cooper
went down and Miller threw, Jimmy
sliding into the bag. Instantly the
second baseman and shortstop ran
around as though hunting something.
Then Cooper got up and tore around
the bases. The mystery was, what
had become of the ball. The men in
the field could not locate 1t, but Um-
pire Smink kept his eyes on Cooper
and when he saw Jimmy reach down
in his shirt and pull out the ball he
ordered him back on second. Mill
er's throw had gone straight into the
breast of the shirt.

PAWVA LEAGUE
PROSPECTS BRIGHT
FOR 1909 SEASON

Clarksburg, w. Va. Jan. 1.-THE
prospects for the Pennsylvania and
West Virginia League next season are
bright. as the writer is assured by all
that they are in the field for baseball
again. Clarksburg is already making
arrangements for 1909 and is having
no trouble in securing ready buyers
of baseball stock. Firmont also has
made arrangements for the coming
season. In the southern part of the
state Parkersburg. Huntington and
Charleston fans are more than anxious
to have an opportunity to get fran
chises IL the league will accept towns
that far south. Nothing can be done
until the meeting of the magnates
in Uniontown January 20, and as 1t is
more than likely all towns represent
ed last year will again be in harness
1t is impossible to tell what will be
done. But 1t Is to be hoped they will
accept the Southern West Virginia
towns, as they are very anxious to Sc
cure berths in this league owing to
the successful manner in which it was
conducted last season. In only two in
stances did the teams lose money. Pres
ident Gronniger made this statement
few days ago.
A meetine of the Charleston Baseball
Association was recently held in this
city and the report of the secretary
showed the money secured from the
sales of Hoblitzel and Lower to Gin
cinnati and Conaway and McAvoy to
Dallas, Tex, brought Clarksburg out a
financial winner Messrs. Hoge and
Welch, representing Clarksburg, will
leave for Mansfield this week to try
and secure Fred Drumm as manager
for the coming season and will author
ize him to begin at once to round up
his team. Drumm at the present time
is manager of the Mansfield polo team.
Under no condition will Clarksburg
be without baseball. as the fans are
baseball mad and II league should
not be got together an independent
team will be seen in this city the CON-
ing season. Catcher Wickenhooyer,
Infielders Conawav and McAvoy, who
are spending the winter in Clarksburg
will leave for Texas in the near fu-
ture, as they are under contract to
play in the Texas League.
