The extreme dullness of the market
was accompanied by the strong undertone
which was manifest yesterday. An In
huence on this result was the promise of
a strong bank return for the week to be
made tomorrow. The estimates of the

BASEBALL NOTES.

The Savannah South Atlantic League
team lost 20 of the first "a games.
If Ray Spencer. the Maryland boy.
Is given a trial i'm the Cleveland out
field, II will be because of the advice
of George Stovall. who is a keen ad-
mirer of the raw recruit. Stovall says
he knows the youngster can hit.
The Boston Traveller says: Diplomat
ic President Lynch. who called the
st. Louis Nationals "quitters." refused
to pc interviewed by the Breweryville
scribes.> They can stand it if the
photographcrs friend is able to do the
same.
Pitcher Patrick. bought by Cleve-
land from the Springfield club of the
Three | League, although told to re-
port at Cleveland last week. has failed
to put in an appearance at League
park. He was sent home from Alexan-
dria because of illness. but recently
said he was ready to report.
Owner Tebeau of Kansas City has
claimed Andy Oyler, of Minneapolis.
by the waiver route. If Oyler comes
to Kansas City. Shay will probably use
him at second. Roy ELAN, VINO was
tried out at shortstop, has been re-
leased to the Mobile Southern League
club.
Pitcher Charles G. Fullerton of the
Fall River team has gone to his home
in Pittshurg. satisfied that he will not
be in pitching condition for many
months. and perhaps not again this
season. He went home at his own re-
quest. having asked the management
two weeks ago to permit him to go. and
again making the same request on
Tuesday.
Manager JoEn Camel of the Roch-
ester team, in the Eastern League. has
released Hi Myers to Lawrence, Mass.
This was done in order to make room
for Castle. a left-handed batter and
outfielder. secured from the Philadel-
phia National League team. Myers
still belongs to Brooklyn. and will be
recalled in all probability at the end
of the New England Leagues season.
Henry Beckendorf, 'ne Tiger catcher.
will not go to Montreal. The st. Louis
club notified Pres. Frank Navin of the
Detroit club that it would not waive
meaning that if Beckendorf leaves De-
troit he must go to st. Louis. Under
those circumstances Pres. Navin will
keep him on the Tiger staff. Detroit
planned to farm out Beckendorf to
Montreal under sucn conditions that he
could be recalled when the Tigers need
ed hun.

JEFFRIES is RESTING.
Thought to Be Waiting for Corbetts
Arrival from East.

Ben Lomond, Calf. May 20.-The
fact that Jim Jeffries took another day
off from training yesterday, leads the
camp to believe that he intends to rest
on his oars until James j. Corbett ar
rives here from the East. At least
nothing but perfunctory exercise and
sparring work is looked for from the
former champion until "Pompadour
Jim" comes to round off Jeffries' pre-
parations for the July fight with fast,
scientific boxing.
Jeffries has accomplished the hardest

QUEENS BAR CORSET.
Three in Crusade Against Com
pressing Their Bodies.
Helena Of Italy, Alexandra of England,
and Elizabeth of Roumania Take
Action Which May Spread
to America,

New YOrk.-A corset strike may en-
gage the attention of the women after
they have finished with the meat
strike, for it is now considered ''queen-
ly'' to go without the expensive and
uncomfortable adornments, according
to information received here.
Besides, stylish corsets are getting
so long it is unpleasant to walk in
them. Any girl will tell you that.
And the longer they make them the
more they cost. Any married man
can tell you that the high cost of
corsets has kept pace with the high
cost of living
But the main thing just now is that
Queen Elizabeth of Roumania has con-
cluded triple alliance against the
corsets. Three queens are hard to
beat. In addition to Queen Elizabeth,
there are Queen Alexandra of Eng
land and Queen Helena of Italy, All
are bona fide queens who can wear
what they please and afford to pay
for it and have vast burden of court
etiquette to manage
Queen Elizabeth told her court all
about it day or two ago. She re-
ceived letter from Queen Alexandra
saying the latter had decided that
womans dress should follow her nat
ural lines. Even if these lines are
inartistic that is no reason why a

An Apache's Armor.

Of those recently arrested was found
to be protected against capture by the
police in clever but cruel manner.
He was taken after desperate battle
and gave his name as Jaques Liabeuf.
1t was found that he wore around
his wrists bands of leather which were
studded with brass spikes sharpened
like needles. The same kind of armor
was attached to his shoulders. When
the policemen attempted to grab him
their hands were torn into shreds by
the spikes. He was armed with a mur.
derous looking knife and revolver,
and had killed a policeman when ar

woman should endanger her health
and posterity, says the queen.
The corset, opines Queen Alexandra,
does not carry out the idea of natur-
al lines in dress. On the other hand,
it thwarts such an idea and gives the
body sort of nom de plume. It
is fraud, often snare and delusion,
and Queen Alexandra was anxious
that her disapproval be published to
the world.
1t was this attitude of Queen Alex
andra, according to Queen Elizabeth,
that caused the former to invent the
princess idea of dress, for which many
shapely women are so thankful.
Her majesty of England went on
Queen Elizabeth to her courtiers, "de-
splses blouses, maintaining that the
subdivision of the female body by the
blouse and skirt is unbeautiful if not
a downright sacrilege"
So Queen Elizabeth indorsed Queen
Alexandra and then proclaimed some
views of her own.
The corset" she declared, 'is an
AA'oAIlOu VI Iudu, uOL OL woman. MOSC
men judge a woman's beauty accord
ing to the standard of an expensive
corsetmaker."
Queen Elizabeth forthwith wrote a
pamphlet setting down her reflections
on the subject and is having it circu-
lated all over Roumania.
It was then that the queen of Italy
became a part of the triple alliance.
She gave away all her corsets-one
for every gown-and wrote to Queen
Elizabeth as follows:
Il am opposed to the corset on
principle, because I think it un.
hygienic and directly injurious to
women, particularly to mothers.
Women who have studied the func-
tions of the body will refuse to wear
corsets. Only thoughtless mothers
will initiate the habits of women still
more giddy and allow their bodies
to be squeezed tightly and their or
gans to be distorted" ....
