Last season the Highlanders finished

Last season the Highlanders finished last with 51 victories and 1os defeats and 1881 per cent. If they win half of their games this year or a trifle less they will fulfill the expectations of Manager Stallings who in the opin- ion of many critics has laid the foun- dation for a winning team that will be a factor in next seasons pennant race.
 Tommy Downey in yesterdays game with Philadelphia, did that for which every ball player strives, that is to make a perfect record at the bat dur ing the game. Thomas was at the bat >three times and made the same number of hits, one of them a double. He made up for this great piece of work with three errors in the field out of eight chances. His double play, though, killed rally of the Quakers.

Frank Hilt may possibly be given trial at shortstop by the Athletics be- fore the season is out, as the regular shortstop Jack Barry, is out with a spiked foot. McInnes who is taking his place is not the fastest youngster in the business. It is probable though that Mack will not take any chances now as every game counts.

SAN PEDRO SHIPPING

SAN PEDRO, Feb. 1.-THE launch Mig
nonette Capt E. Hail. arrived here early
this morning after a stormy trip from San
Diego. Shortly after midnight the little
35-foot boat encountered terrific south
easter and narrowly escaped being lost.
Heavy seas swept over the craft and Capt.
Hall saved his boat by hoisting sail and
running before the wind, which attained a
velocity at times of 40 miles hour. He
reports that at l o'clock this morning about
IL miles off San Juan Capistrano he passed
a new 35-foot launch, bottom side up. Ap-
parentIy the launch had been recently cap
sized. Inquiry along the water front fails
to establish the identity of the launch. A
rainfall, has prevailed for "a hours. The
Catalina island passenger steamer Her
mosa, Capt. Blanchard, which left at 1O
O'Clock today for Avalon, returned to port
on account of the storm.
The Pacific Coast company's steamship
State of California, Capt. Thomas, cleared
this morning for San Diego with freight and
passengers. She will call tomorrow bound
for San Francisco via Redondo and Santa
Barbara.
The steamer San Gabriel, Capt. Green,
cleaned today for the Umpqua river where
she will load 100000 feet of lumber for the
pany.
The steamer Centralia, Capt. Erickson,
arrived this morning seven days from Gray S
harbor via San Francisco with passengers
and $4,000 feet of lumber, which will be
discharged at the Salt Lake wharf.
The steamer Claremont, Capt. Walvig, is
due here Friday from Gray's harbor via
Port Los Angeles with remainder of her
lumber cargo.

LOCAL EGGS DROP TO
THIRTY-FIVE CENTS
WILL EITHER STAND UNCHANGED
OR ADVANCE TODAY
Eastern Potatoes Continue to Arrive.
Vegetables Are Scarce-NortF-
ern Cheese Advances

Local eggs again declined in the Los Angeles
market yesterday, the extent Of the drop being
&c, bringing the quotation to 35Q36c dozen as
a selling price and to 33c as buying price.
Receipts continued heavy, amounting to 4l4
cases, local.
With three days of heavy receipts to back
the trade it is believed that eggs will either
remain at the present quotation for the re-
mainder of the week or advance. The advance,
however, would only follow should receipts fall
off today.
Eastern potatoes continued to reach market
yesterday, the reported receipts amounting 10
1167 sacks. The tone was necessarily hrm at
prices ranging from 81. 70 to $2.50 "a sack These
prices are in advance of those prevailing the
early part Of the week.
Bunch stuff was scarce. In fact a general
scarcity prevailed in all local vegetables, es-
pecially garden truck. Everything was hard
to get at even advanced prices, owing to
shortage in receipts caused by growers being
unable to reach market.
Northern fresh cheese advanced to 16q1612c
pound and was firm at that. Cheese as a
whole was firm, but no other changes in prices
followed
The fish and game market was cleaned up
early in the day.
The fruit business dull and inactive
Only a few grapes and persimmons remained
Apples were the best sellers. Citrus fruit was
only fair.

NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-THE dull strength in
today's market was ascribed in large part to
foreign influences and was an echo of the rout
undergone by the bear element in the specu-
latiOn in the London stock market. The stu
alton abroad has been cleared up materially
by the political adjustments that have been
prehension that has borne on the financial
markets for many months. Some part of the
buying here was supposed to be prompted by
the action of the California legislature in re-
considering and defeating the bill to segregate
Japanese children in the public schools al
though the discussion of our Japanese relations
had lost it's influence as a stock market factor
for several days.
Union Pacific moved up with its usual strong
sympathetic effect on the whole list
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value,
81 ,630, 000 United States Is have declined a.

CHICAGO Feb. n.-Traders celebrated today
by putting the May price to 11S at the close
and the July to 1O1A. This gain the re-
light speculative offerings during the greater
part Of the session, some bullish news from
the southwest. and very strong situation indi-
Gated by the cables The Broomhall estimate
on Argentine shipments for the week was a
surprise, the amount dropped off from
1854, 600 bushels the week previous to 4,SOO, 900
bushels. The modifying features in the stu
alton are the more favorable conditions for the
growing crop, the slower advance at outside
markets than here and the probability that
higher cash prices will draw larger Offer
ings from first hands over the winter wheat
states.
Considering the holiday tomorrow, prices held
remarkably well. Certain active interests in
the trade were buying May and selling July
during the morning. Market acts very stub
born and it looks as if it would take actual
heavy receipt of corn to give much reaction.
Recent active buyers of oats were not doing
much in the market today, and under moder-
ate amount of profit taking the May price
dropped back to 53B and closed a shade better
than bottom figures. Somewhat larger re-
of higher prices. Country buying of oats was
fairly good at the opening today. Shipping

1t is thought there is nothing to cause any,
thing but a moderate dip in prices even if hog
receipts should prove heavier for few days.

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET

Special service to The Herald by Dick Bros.
e Co., members New York Cotton exchange,
Bradbury building. Los Angeles.
NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Cotton was dull to-
day. but barring some irreguarity the ten
dency was easier; the large stock of unsold
cotton in many of the great markets are
beginning to tell against prices particularly
in the near positions. Some cotton is pointed
this way for delivery on March contracts,
and the long interest in the option is grad
ually letting the price down to avoid attract
ing too much cotton. Another large interest,
which is short Of near months, is buying
October freely, and the purchases constituted
the main support of the market today. Bulls
appear less certain Of their position; but out
siders continue to buy.

VALLEJO, Cal, Feb. 11.-While
awaiting the arrival of a launch which
was to convey him to his barracks,
George H. Strelow, a marine, slipped
