Roads leading out of San Francisco
are already beginning to suffer from
The San Francisco call., 1909-10-22
Bad Roads to
Redwood City


roads are actually in a dangerous con-
ddtion, and motorists, according to re-
ports, are advised 70 drive their ma
chimes with great care between these
two points, principally on account OF
the slippery condition of the highways.
The warndng note was sounded yes
terdays by l.. Z. Fenton of Salinas, who
drove up from his home town to attend
the festivities in his Studebaker tourin &
car. Together with members of his
family he left Salinas at . o'clock in
the morning. He came by way of San
Juan, Gilroy, San Jose and Redwood
City. Considerable care is necessary
for the entire run, says Fenton, but
between Salinas and Redwood City
fairly good time may be made. This
portion of the road Fenton says he
made in three and half hours.
From Redwood City to San Fran
cisco we were compelled to travel very
slowly" said Fenton. The roads were
just wet enough to make them disa-
greeably slippery and we had many
little narrow escapes. Any one con-
templating making the run would do
well to approach San Juan by way of
Dumbarton. The roads will be- found
in little better condition that way"

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
STRESS AND STORM.
Prices Reacted from to Over 7 1-2 Points, the Harrimans Again Being the Greatest Losers.

New York, Aug 26.-Another period of stress and storm was experienced by the stock market today. On very heavy liquidation prices reacted from 3 to over ' 1-2 points, the greatest losses being again made by the Harri- man stocks and their affiliated issues
 Union Pacific sold off to 19S. the lowest price in exactly a month, while South ern Pacific suffered corresponding1y, Sentiment had become bearish over night and the board room had a fresh supply of ammunition in the way of pessimistic rumors concerning the con- dition of MT. Hartman Another ac- emulation of selling orders, together with the freedom with which London sold our securities before the opening, gave additional impetus to the move ment when the market opened here. AS a matter of fact, a very large part of the days business was in Union Pacific, that stock, for all practical purposes, dominating the situation throughout. On the way down to POI at the opening a great many stop loss orders were dislodged and many more accounts with impaired margins were thrown over. Conservative estimates of Hong" sales of Union Pacific since the beginning of the week vary from 150,000 to 100000 shares or one-fifth to one-quarter of the entire trading in that issue since Monday. To this may safely be added no less than 100000 shares of ,ishort' stock, leaving a com paratively small margin to the credit of Legitimate operations. The history of the day may be summed up in series of declines, with an occasional fitful rally, which seemed to spend it's energy at the first signs of another bear attack. Frequent attempts were made to force Union Pacific below 200 but they were ,unavailing until almost the last hour when 100 shares came out at 199 7-S and 800 shares at Is lower These were soon followed by a block of 2,900 shares at 199 1-2. United States Steel which had relatively been the strongest of the half score issues prominent in the recent rise, also re- fected heavy pressure. From these low prices the list had another brief respite. with yet another low level Union Pacific closing at 19S, break of 21 points from the top record price of Aug. IS last. The rest of the list was in more or less disorder General news of the day bearing upon the stock market was distinctly favorable. Crop news was encouraging. There were further indications of plethora of money in the west and southwest. From leading industrial centers came advices of even greater activity. The New York, New Haven and Hartford road submitted the result of its opera tions of the fiscal year, with reduc tion of $1,700.000 in operating expenses and a total net gain of over S3,000.00O Bonds were weak. with severe losses and large transactions in the specula tive issues Total sales, par value. amounted to $6017,0 900. GoyernHhent bonds were steady.

IRA THOMAS SMILING.
TickIed to Death to Help Athletics
 Against Detroit-Used to Be Z Tiger.

Ira Thomas, the former Hartford catcher. is the smiling kid of -thefArn-. erican league just now. His smile has really become one of the features of the pennant race in Ban Johnsons organization. The husky catcher of the Athletics wears the smile whenever aEayone says Detroit Thomas was Tiger a year ago. He was consid- cred a fixture until Manager Hugh Jennings surprised him by letting him go to Philadelphia. When he heard of the deal Thomas did not smile. He gritted those beautiful white food pull verizers and determined not to report. Then he thought it over, and when spring came around he joined Connie Mack's team. And ever since he has been so tickled that he just cans help grinning. Why? Because he has been getting back at Jennings and the Tigers ever since. When Claud Ross man blew up against the Athletics last spring. the reason for the expio- sion was Ira Thomas. During his stay with the champions, Thomas learned all their strong and weak spots, and when he went to the Ath- letics he naturally tipped off the vul- nerable spots to Mack. And 1t was because Thomas knew Rossman was a poor thrower that the Athletics plan ned to keep the big Claud throwing the ball as much as possible. As a result of that series, Rossman did his first base playing on the bench for a long time. Now with the Athletics the strongest contenders to beat out Detroit. Thomas joy is supreme Springfield Union.

CIolhier Defeats WestarIler In Final
Will Meet Larned for Tennis TitIeDerot Whtewashes
 Athletics this Time-Boston Wins and Loses-Pirates Get One from Giants-Bal Player Struck by Lightning

Newport, R. l., Aug. 26.-By winning three out of four hard fought sets from Maurice F. Mclaughlin, the Pacific coast champion. in the final round of the 18th tournament of the United States national lawn tennis on the Newport Casino courts here today, William J. Clothier of Philadelphia won the right to challenge William A. Larned, who has held the national championship for the past two years. Tomorrow LSrned and Clothier, who have met many times during the past few years, will play the most import ant lawn tennis match of the year.
 In a brilliant and hard fought con- test Clothier won by four sets to one, 7-5, GA, 9-11, 6-3.
 Where the Pacific coast sharp fell down chiefly was in his anxiety to get his hard drive over with it's best speed, ian eagerness that sent the ball out or into the net often, for his control of his forehand drive was not as good as in his spectacular match against Long last week.
 The Philadelphian seldom, if ever, resorted to lobbing, for he recognized that the westerner's style of overhead game was almost faultness. And so, in the last analysis, the east, with care fulness on its side, won over the west, with speed alone as an asset.
 ocluOIn udS lH0T6 Dccu InOl6 iIllcuS6 interest fn a challenge match than in that to be played tomorrow. Only the first American champion. R. D. Sears, who maintained that position for sev- en years. has exceeded Larned's rec ord in national title holding, and only one other, R. D. Wrenn, has equalled it. If Larned wins tomorrow he will enter on his fifth year as champion, having won the title in 1901 from M. D. Whitman, successfully defended 1t in 1902 against the Englisnman, 2. r. Doherty; won it again in 1907 through the default of Clothier, and maintained it last year against Beals c. Wright. Larned had to play through the tour nament last year, as he won the old cup by his third capture of the cham pionship in 1907. A victory tomorrow woud give him two legs on the new cup. Clothier in 1906 won the finals and then the championship by defeat ing Beals C.. Wright.

Record for Runa Scored.

In that S2 to 8 game the other day the Lancaster Tri-State team had a chance to break record of organized baseball. Four more tallies would have hung up new mark for runs scored in a game. The Chicago Ma tionals set the record back in 1882. They were playing the Clevelands. and the Blue fielders never before put in such a day chasing the ball, and 35 runs. Cleveland got 4. The game was played on July 24. In the early days of the game big scores were com mon, but when that contest took place the sport was moving on toward the development that has made it the highly scientific affair 1t is at the present day.

 Instructions were also given to bar Trainer Eddinger from American league parks indefinitely. Eddinger. it is said, was not signed as a player. has been appearing in players suit at all the games this year and has made trouble for umpires.
