ABILITY OF GERMAN
WRESTLER R|D|CULED

New York, Feb. S-Tom O'Rourke,
financial agent and matchmaker for
Joe Rogers, the American Apollo"
who also claims to be wrestler
when he isn't posing for Il photo
grapher, is going to all kinds of eX-
tremes in an effort to make a dicker
with Ernest Siegfried, the German
Oak" In an open letter he wants to
know what Mr.. Oak ever did to gain
fame or notoriety, roasts the grap-
piers who were sacrificed at the gar
den last week. that Siegfried might
make a showing on his first public
appearance here and actually offers to
give the "Oak" all the money If he
can defeat Rogers. He says in part:
For goodness saks, what Is Seig
fried champion of? He has tried in
almost every tournament that has
been given in Paris and has never
finished In third money even. He
may look pretty to his German
friends; he does look well in tights,
but let him prove his ability as n
wrestler. Rogers will wrestle Seig-
fried at his favorite style and will
agree to make it all to the winner
showing that he Is not looking for
any losers end, and he will bet him
whatever amount he wants to risk at
the prevailing odds on the night of
the contest"

C[ARKSON
NOTED EVANGELIST TELLS OF
CHARACTER OF THE GREAT
BASEBALL PLAYER.

80 old John Clarkson Is dead?
Well, WELL another old pal gone. But
John is better off so, as his former
condition was worse than death"
So spoke Evangelist Billy Sunday
yesterday afternoon when his atten-
tion was called to the dispatch from
Waltham, Mass, in Friday mornings
Spokesman Review, telling of the
death of the once great pitcher in
sanitarium. Clarkson was several
years ago taken to the sanitarium,
hopelessly insane.
John was mighty good fellow
and credit to baseball. He was one
OF your clean-cut, neat. smoothly
trimmed chaps, gentleman from
training and instinct typical ath-
lete, he never lost his own self-re
spect nor permitted anybody else to
lose respect for him. He took such ex
cellent care of himself that he waS
perhaps a really great pitcher longer
than any other star twirler the game
has ever known, and / do not exempt
Cy Young and Kid Nichols from con-
sideration, although they were iden-
tilted with the game for longer
period. Young and Nichols were never
the surprisingly great pitchers that
Clarkson was.
There has been only one other man
like Clarkson, and that Is Mathew
son, and it Is fair to compare these
two as the greatest Of their class,
| and much of the same sort of fellows,
personally.
"WhDe John vas not a fellow 10
make many friends, 3li.l he was al
ways a pleasant com ani"n. ana |
toad great pleasure in be ng with
him. ! think that Clarkson, 1nore
than any other one man, was my Ideal
when I broke into the game. for il
made II profound Impression on me
that this fellow could associate with
rough men on the fiall, day after
day. and sti,l be clean and manly.
Il was with Johr the nighi I was
converted, and shall never forget
the kindly manner in viii IN he spoke
to me the next daV assuring me that
If he could d. any.;,ing - hep re
he would, and Urging me to stick to
t."--Spokesman- Review.

Philadelphia, Feb. s.--Barney Drey-
fuss, president of the Pittsburg club,
who has been interested in the Phila-
delpha club ever since Messrs. Rog-
ers and Reach disposed Of the club,
no longer owns a share of stock In
the Phillies. Mr.. Dreyfuss has sold
all of his stock to William Murray,
manager OF the club, and the latter
became one Of the largest sharehold-
ers In the Philadelphia club. BY rea-
son of his large interest in the club,
Mr. Murray will be elected to the
board of directors
BY selling his stock in the club Mr..
Dreyfuss has silenced the talk di-
rected against him of beng interested
in Syndicate ball" He now owns
stock in only the Pittsburg club.
Mr., Murray was not the only per-
son who sought to purchase the
stock of Mr.. Dreyfuss. Two other
Philadelphians, one of whom Is a
prominent politician, were extremely
desirous of investing in the clubs
stock, and would have paid more for
the stock than Mr.. Dreyfuss re-
ceived.

MURDERER DISCOVERED
THROUGH DOGS BITE

Morella, Mexico, Feb. S.---Jesus Lo-
PEGS sin found him out because a
mad dog bit him. Lopez killed a man
in January, 1908, and fled. He re-
turned a short time ago and lived
quietly unrecognized. Then mad
dog bit him. He was sent to Mexico
City for the Pasteur treatment and
there he was recognized as the much
wanted murderer, arrested and sent
back to Morella for trial.
Lopez committed murder for 81
cents. A man named Jesus Juaraz
owed that amount and failed to pay.
They quarreled Lopez slipped up on
Juaraz while the latter was bathing
in a creek, overpowered him and
hanged him to tree. The moose came
out and when Lopez returned three
days later his victim was still alive.
Then Lopez finished the job by shoot
ing Juaraz 40 times.

Grain and Provisions.

Chicago, Feb S.-A new high record
mark for the season was established
here today. when wheat for May de-
livery sold at sl.1l% per bushel, sur
passing by nc the previous high point
recorded on December 4. Realizing by
leading holders caused n loss of near
ly all the gain, however, the net ad-
vance at the close being only Nc COM
pared with the final quotations Of the
previous session.
Trade in oats was dull, but the mar
ket was quite firm at times, owing to
buying by some of the prominent
holders of wheat At the close prices
We're Bc to Ac higher, with May at
521sc and July at 46&c.
Profit taking by local longs caused
moderate weakness in provisions. The
market closed steady with prices un-
changed to 2L2c lower.

STRENGTH IS SHOWN
IN MARKET
SOURCE OF IMPROVEMENT IS
TRACEABLE TO OPERATIONS TO
COVER SHORT CONTRACTS.

New York Feb. S.-The source of
the strength in the stock market to-
day was traceable apparently to op-
erations to cover short contracts put
out last week. The movement was
distinguished by subsistence OF the
special advances In individual stocks.
On the other hand. the general list
came In for more active buying de-
mand today. The prospect of action
by the California legislature on the
question of japanese children in the
public schools in opposition to the ad-
vice of the national executive was
reported more likely than at the close
Of last week. The considerable
strength of stocks on Saturday on ac-
count of this factor evidently was for
the account of the professional bears
and their demand to cover today did
not meet any large liquidation from
the same cause.
The market was lethargic for the
most part and the price movement
was affected during n few brief
periods of activity. The neglect OF
the market is it's most conspicuous
feature at present The fact OF the
absence from wall street OF SoiHe u
the most conspicuous figures In the
financial world plays a part In this.
1t is suspected also that some effect
of the repression Is due to the pend
ing operations of Governor Hughes
commission which has now arrived at
a consideration of the stock ex-
change after having traversed the field
OF the commercial exchanges.
Railroad traffic officials bear out
the testimony of other authorities as
to hating tendency of merchandise,
the movement, according to their evil
dence, having fallen off considerably
from the December level. The weeks
traffic statistics showed a notable de-
cline in the grain movement. The
formulation of the demands to be
made by the anthracite miners in the
convention of the United Mine Work
ers outlined the nature of the nego-
tiations that must be gone through to
arrive at an agreement for the coming
April The coalers shared in the gen.
eral firmness of the market.
