FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
LITTLE IMPROVEMENT.
Market Lapsed Into Neglect After a
Short Active FURRY.

New York Jan. 20.-There was a
perceptible growth today Of the disin-
oltnation to deal in stocks which has
been increasing for several days past.
The first hour OF the session shows a
squirt of activity which seems to be
due to hopeful testing operations by
the professional element With the
failure Of these efforts to arouse any
interest or to attract any following
the market lapsed into neglect and at
times into stagnation, with possibly
another little furry of activity in the
final hour. The movement at the end
of the day is likely to be a simple re-
versal of that of the opening. This
narrowing Of the price fluctuations is
the certain index Of the indifference
of all the professional board room ele-
ment which gains its subsistence in the
daily fluctuations Of prices One re-
pressive factor at work in the whole
financial world Is the waiting for the
outcome Of the Russian loan which is
to be issued in Paris on Friday. In
the New York market there are de-
velopments also which have been long
awaited and which the speculative ele-
ment would like to see more light upon
before proceeding further. Today the
New York Central directors adjourned
once more with the announcement that
only routine matters had been consid-
N-~Ns AAAD RAbb OlL C5GlI tic sup
posed entry Of e. II. Hartman and
associates into the directorate, which
has been said to be imminent many
times. There was some disappointment
also over the non-action Of the New
York public service commission on the
Erie application for an issue of $780,
C00000 bonds When the stock market
becomes quiet and prices no longer
make their daily upward swing the
speculative temper becomes somewhat
fretful at the absence of news of ex-
pected events and an uneasy spirit is
the result. New rumors are not lack
ing, however, to replace the old, and
these continue to deal with supposed
wide reaching readjustment of rela-
tions in the railroad world. A decline
in Amalgamated Copper was a re-
Spouse to the reports of unfavorable
conditions in the copper trade Except
in special cases the days changes
proved insignificant. Affairs were a.
most as much at a standstill in the
money and exchange markets as in
stocks. Bonds were irregular. Total

COBB WANTS TO LEAD
IN ALL-AROUND BASEBALL.
Great OutfeIder Would Be a Star in
All Positions Like Wagner.

Cobb is now considered the heetest
footed man playing baseball. Bearing
in mind the fact that his career has
but begun, he has a right to expect
that his batting record will compare
favorably with anything in history.
He Is commonly accorded the palm
when it comes to pay in the outfield.
Solely in versatility and ability to play
other positions than tine che which he
has occupied in the A)esgoit outfield
ever since his big leagde service be-
gan, he is unquestionaDly second to
the great Hans Wagner of the Pirates,
who while playing shortstop has shown
himself amply able to handle, to every
ones perfect satisfaction, any position
in either outf1eld or infeld, as well as
being able to do a right able turn in
the box when it is necessary.
The average baseball player would
be content to secure and retain such
distinctions as have fallen to Cobb's
lot, but not the Georgia Peach" Sec
ond place in anything is always irk-
some to him. He is one Of the few
professional baseball players who play
more for the fun and the glory than
they do for the dollars they receive
in their semi monthly envelopes. 1t is
the ability of Wagner to play any po-
sition with equal facility that has
caused the baseball world to turn over
" ulll tie CTOWL, anu lIldl GTOWu
is obviously the one on which Tyrus
has his eye right now.
The Detroit public, and, in fact, ev-
cry other American league city, is IA
miliar with the fact that Cobb en-
ploys every possible opportunity to
practice at odd times in other posi- :
lions than the one which he regularly
occupies. Especially has he been Civ
ing attention to first and second base
and the pitching department. In the
hot weather when the practice before
the daily game was cut short by Man
ager Hughie Jennings, Cobb and a
couple of substitutes would invariably
trot out on the field, "Ty' with q
catcher's mitt on his left paw, and the
stunts which the southern wonder pull
ed off straightway were little short of
amazing.
In the warming up Of the Detroit
team Cobb invariably took a place
with the pitchers and practiced all
sorts Of curves, including several varie-
ties of splitter" and Eddie Summers
"knucl5le ball" His speed Y@s terrific,
though his control was usually the butt
of jests from the real twirlers who
were there with him on the firing line
Never mind" Cobb told wild Bill'
Donovan one day, you'll see the time
when I can split the plate with three
in a row and it will be my turn to
laugh"

BOSTON WILL OPEN
AT NEW SHIBE PARK.
Connie Mack Feels Sure of Having
Pennant Contenders.

Shibe park, the new home of the
Athletics, will be opened on April II
with the Boston team as the rival at
traction. This was the official an
nOuncement made at Cleveland on
Tuesday bv the schedule committe es
of the National league and the Anleri-
can league. These committees held a
joint session and decided upon the
playing schedule for each organization
1t was given out that the American
league season will open April IL and
the Nationals season will start on
April IA. The New York Americans
will open the season in Washington,
Detroit. In the National league
Brooklyn will play in New York on
April IA. Philadelphia will open at
Boston, Pittsburg at Cincinnati and st.
Louis at Chicago.
A Philadelphia despatch says that
the Athletic team which is to open the
new Shibe park next spring and which
will battle for American league PEN
nant honors at the start, at least, has
finally been decided upon. and SO the
thirty candidates viii at once know
their fate. The catchers will be Pow
ers, Blue, Japp, Egan and Thomas, OF
whom three will be retained after a
tryout. A staff Of eight pitchers will
be chosen from thirteen candidates,
LnCSe assured OF pSTlH Delug 6euutT,
Plank Dygert, Coombs, Schiller and
Vickers. The two remaining regulars
will be selected from Southpaws
Krause, Salve and Kellogg and five
right handlers, F9ater, Martin, Lynch,
Showers and Curtis. The inf1eld will
be first baseman, Davis; second base
man, Murphy; third baseman, Baker;
shortsrop, Barry. with Collins and
Nichols as substitutes. The outfield
will be Hartzel, Oldring and Jackson,
with Strunk, Huelsman and Heitmiller
as substitutes. The five substitutes
Will this season not be farmed out, but
will be kept on the bench all of the
time to learn by observation. With
this outfit Manager Mack is confident
of being in the race from start to fin
ish, regardless of the opinion of other
baseball managers and critics.
New uniforms for the Athletics are
being selected by Manager Connie
Mack and Business Manager John
Shibe. They will be startling in effect,
it is said. in order that they may fit
the beautiful Shibe park.

MARATHON FOR CHICAGO.
Dorando Runs Corey There Tomorrow
Night.

Dorando Pietri. the Italian Marathon
/ runner is in Chicago, preparing for
his race with A lbrt Corey, the Chicago
long distance runner which takes place
III that city Friday night This man
has run many races since he came to
. this country and has won but two of
them, one against Johnny Hayes, who
beat him in London, and the second
against Percy Smallwood in St. Louis,
in which Smallwood was in no condi-
ton to race and quit at the twelfth
mile.
Dorando was to have raced in Kan
sas City against five runners from the
fort at Leavenworth, but in view of
his coming meeting with Corey, the
native Of Sunny Italy deemed it wise
to save his strength for the struggle
with the Frenchman.
Dorandos showing in the st. Louis
Marathon surprised his followers, who
are planning to wager heavily on their
favorite. Dorando shows no bad eff
fects of his recent numerous races, and
says he will be in fine condition to put
up the race of his life.
Corey has worked harder for the
coming match with Dorando than ever
before. Each Saturday he joys through
the full Marathon distance, and on al
ternate days takes long runs His
style OF praeticing is rather different
from that pursued by most runners
He runs at top speed for two hours at
a time, then takes a short req. and
repeats the performance two or three
times.
