NEW SWIMMING CHAMPION.
Beaurepaire, the Australian, is Max
 ing Worlds Records.

Along with annoying most of the big English titles at swimming, Beau repaire. the Australian, has started to make history in the record line He is not attacking any obscure marks by mediocre performers, but is going for the records of the cracks. A couple of weeks ago he wiped off three previ- ous marks at the Exeter Baths in one night. He first attacked the 200 meters, which he swam in 2 minutes 30 seconds In the old world the rec ord of minutes 31 3-5 seconds, made by Otto Shelf of Austria, seemed to be the best, the nearest to it being 2 minutes 35 seconds made by c. M. Daniels of the New York A C. at Lon don two years ago The 300 yards was the next to receive the attention of the Australian, and he swam it in 3 minutes 30 seconds. The best Eng fish record for this distance was 3 minutes 31 2-5 seconds, by T. S. Bat tersby last year.
 It was in the 300 meters that Beau repaire gave his greatest display of speed, and he knocked a. big slive off all worlds records. His time was 3 minutes 50 1-5 seconds, and nothing like this has ever been achieved even with a tide or indoors. The old mark was minutes F seconds, by Otto SchieIe of Germany. The late B. B.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
RISE IN STOCK PRICES. Disprovai of False Aiarn, of Frost Damage to Corn Crop.

| New York, Aug 29.-The groundwork for the rise in prices of stocks which
 occurred today was laid last week ir
 the overselling by group of profes- | sional operators prompted by the false
 alarm of frost damage to the corn crop The d1SprOVal of this report and the
 later advices over Sunday of favorable | weather for the co.n crop quieted ap- prehension and had the effect of reviv- ing confidence in the improvement that has been going on in the condition ot | the crop since the date of the last gov ernnent monthly report The very large movement of wheat to market | last week was another element in the greater confidence felt in the crop prospect. Sales of cotton at the New York cotton exchange for August de- livery for twenty cents a pound were treated as merely a sensational market episode, due to the imperative require ments of an uncovered short interest. The weekly interviews with traffic mana gers of the great railroad systems bore out the reports of the rapid move ment of grain to markets.
 The traffic reports pointed to a large proportion of agricultural implements in the traffic movement. This was re- garded as a favorable hamburger of az ricultura1 prospects and a sign of the present prosperity of the farming com munity.
 Reports of some increased demand for iron supplemented these influences in giving a cheerful tone to the specu-
 lation.
 The rapid movement of grain to
 market carries with it the corollary of
 need for currency to effect this move ment. The demand on the interior
 banks at the reserve centers for this
 purpose is said to be large and is re-
 fiected from them on the New York banks.
 Shipments of currency to the interior and to Canada from here continue ac-
 lively by express. and there were de posits at the sub-treasury today for transfer to New Orleans. These forces of depletion of bank reserves may have accounted for slightly firmer tone of call loans today. the rate opening at 1 1-2 per cent. and rising to 2 per cent ing out funds that have been kept idle. A firmer tone characterized money markets in London and Berlin well, where preparations for the monthly settlements are in progress Foreign exchange rates here yielded quite sharply, apparently in response to the firmer tone of the money market. The tanacity with which three or four of the largest New York banks are hold ing to excessive surplus reserves in face of the high rates and meagre de- mand for commercial paper is the oc- casion of some uneasy discussion as possible indication of expected unfa- ,vorable developments of some kind.
 The demand for stocks today seemed to be professional in it's origin. buying by shorts being supplemented by the opposing tactics of a bull party on the floor of the stock exchange. Of the days aggregate sales of 337, TOO shares. United States Steel Reading and Un- ion Pacific made up 252.600 shares.
 Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value $745,O0O. United States fours advanced Is per cent. on call.

Cincinnati Aug. 29-In view of the fact that both major leagues have adopted legislation limiting the clubs to a certain number of players that they may carry on their reservation list the national baseball commission today suspended for one year a sec ton of rule 35 relating to waivers.
