PRICES TOO HIoH7
Fans Are Wondering if Purchase Price
 Has Effect or Players.

Not since the big four-Richardson, Brouthers. Rowe and White-were pur- chased from the Buffalo club by De- trpit in 1868 for $22 00O has there been such sensation as that caused by the reported recent purchase of Lefty" Russell for $12,000 by Connie Mack from the Baltimore club. If sounded like the fall of Babylon when it was announced that Connie had bought q pitcher for that price who had never shown in the big league.
 In 1887, when Mike Kelly was pur- chased by the Boston club from Chi cago for $10000 and then when Clark son was purchased year later for the same amount the baseball fans of New England just went dippy. President Soden of the Boston club thought sQ much of the deal that the canceled checks were framed and hung over tn 9 desk in his office.
 Ten thousand dollars for A single ball player was the highwater mark until the New York National league club paid .$11,00O for Rube Marquard, who was purchased from the Indian apolis club. Do these big prices af- feet the player who is purchased for the amount as he goes into pitch his first game in fast company?
 This is the question asked all over the baseball circuit. The White Sox turned over Ss,5OO for Blackburn, and so far he has been a disappointment. So far Rube Marquard has not been much for the Giants However, the managers of the high priced players think they will be of good service to the club. despite the high amount of money laid out for these players. But what the fans want to know is was the talent which cost $31 300 worth it.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
STOCK PRICES STILL RISING. Dangerous Situation Adjusted by Pow
 erfuI Banking Syndicate.

New York, July 2s.-The further material recuperatfon of stock marke! values today followed the disclosure ir additional detail of the arrangements by which heavy blocks of securities which had been hanging over the mar ket had been taken over by powerful banking syndicates, thus saving the necessity of further sacrifices of val ues in a ruthless sale in the open mar ket with no demand sufficient to absort the offerings.
 Attention was focused on the oper- ation dealing with the Pearson syndi- cate holdings, taken up by Kuhn, Loeb
 & company and foreign associates
 The circumstantia1 and authentic re-

 lectures of other similar settlements,

 The effect of these developments on
 the speculative tone Of the market was
 electrical. The relief from threatened
 liquidation of dislodged holdings was
 enough in itself to change the com
 plexion of the outlook.
 The sudden adjustment of so danger
 ous a situation left very large short interest uncovered in the market, which
 had counted on g continuance of a forced liquidation to dePress prices to

Some large blocks of very high grade stocks were believed to have passed in the process of protection and adjustment part of which were designed for for eign investors. The buying in the open market also included a substan- tial proportion of orders for foreign account The low level to which prices had been forced proved attractive to investors when the fact became known of the clearing of the situation.

Special interest will attach to the loan account of the bank statement, especially that of some of the trust companies and outside the clearing house, where the important relief operations of the week may be looked to have their effect. The Bank of England weekly report showed the strong re- cuperative forces for that money mar zet still in full force, with correspond Ing security for the New York money market in a source of available relief for any need.

UMPIRE CONNOLLY SORE
 ON TWO AMERICAN LEAGUERS
One is George MuIIin Of Detroit-Other
 is Catcher Who Double Crossed the
 Ump

There are two men in the American league on whom Umpire Connolly will never make mistake by giving them more but there are certainly two One of them is pitcher, the other a catch CT.
 The pitcher is George Mullin; the catcher's name has not been made pub lie. but he does not belong to the De- troit team.
 Both players got in wrong with Con molly. George Mullins crime against the witty Irish arbitrator dates back six years George tells of the disturb ance which made Connolly his enemy.
 He came on the field one day feel ing badly. It was a tough game. In about the sixth inning a foul hit him in the chest and knocked him down. We had big bell. and l started to toll off the seconds. while several other fei- lows began counting him out.
 Connolly jumped up. He Was in an awful rage. Who's ringing that bell and who's counting me out 2" he yelled. 'Sonlebody'll pay for this
 After while some one told him that rang the bell. He never forgaVe me. Aud Furthermore, hen always remem- Der it."
 The catcher's troubles all started in game which, like tfrs one that put Mullin in bad. was. a close contest.
 Connolly was handing out decisions without the aid of an assistant. He was Hmping that day and couldn't get around. So he want to this old catcher

SOME GOOD soUTHPAWs.
Pfester and krause Stars in Two Diff ferent Leaeues-Doc White Uses Great HeadworIe.

Jack Pfester of the Cubs is a clever southpaw pitcher. Jack has curves that any twirler in the league would be proud of. It is said that he has more dope on the ball than any pitcher in the Chicago National league team, with the possible exception of King Cole. the younsster secured this year by Manager Chance.
 This includes the justly famous Brown, who is invariably thrown into
 the breach for the Cubs when an im-
 portant game has to be pulled out of the fire. Pfester is especially effective against the New York Giants the req son for which is unexplainabfe. except possibly Jack has their baseball goat

Especial to The Bulletin.l

The tables were turned again by ManIey Thursday afternoon when he 1 sent Middletown down to defeat at Willimantic by a 3-2 score by pitching an excellent game of ball. The team played well behind him and fielded in fine style.
 Ianley allowed but two hits all told two little singles and fly that got away from Sullivan after a hard run.
 It was a shame to, permit Bannon to score two men, as two were on bases
 Bannon had really been struck out
 glasses on and was triffe off on balls
 and strikes.
 The home team did not do any great
 slugging aside from O'Donnell, who
 right off the reel clouted the sphere for a three bagger and later in the game connected for two singles one of them a nice bunt that he beat out.
 Petrick, after flaming twice, drove one over the right field fence for two bases. It was O'Mara. reliable Paddy however, who was the man with the walIop-when with two men and Bannon backing out deep he drove bea uty on a line over Bannon'S head to deep center for two sacks that scored Nichols and O'Donnell in the eighth. The fans went wild with delight. When the inning opened it looked rather bad for the locals, as Middfetown was leading. 2-1- Nichols, first up, hit safely for single, went to second on his third hit, sending Nichols to third. On an attempt to catch Nichols, ,O'Don- nell puriOined second and then Sulli- van flew cut to DeMara. O'Mara came to the plate and hit the horsehide as before told. Noonan and Petrick were easy outs. New London failed to score in her half and the game was over

 For seven or eight innings they got along splendidly Three or four balls were nit down third base line and the catcher gave Connolly the right tip ana Connolly made his decision ac- cordin2 to the catcher's tips
 The catcher was honest about it. He called one of the grounders fair and it gave man on the opposite side two base hit.
 But all this while the catcher's side was ahead by three runs. The opposi- ton made batting rally in the eighth or nlnth. They needed one more run to tie the score. There was one out and the bases were filled.
 The batter hit the ball toward fhird IL was one foot inside the bag and<As fair as any ball ever hit. ,,onnoily looked al the catcher.

 Connolly waved the players back. Two of them were already over the plate. The umpire couldn't change his decision. He easily discovered that the catcher had betrayed his confidence and lost the game for the visiting club. Tommy will never be able to acknoWi- edge acquaintance with that backstop.

cIarke,s New sehen,e on Pitehers.

Manager Clarke of the Pittsburgs has adopted a system of using his pitchers which of late is most success ful. In none of the recent victories the Pirates have scored have less than two pitchers been used. The Pirates twirl- CTS are far from being at their best, none of them being able to go the en- tire route, and Manager Clarke does not ask them to. The moment a pitch CT shows signs of weakening he is talk en out and a fresh man is put in. In this way the pitchers of the Pittsburg team are only working four or five in- nings a day now, but they are scoring victories. and the Pirates are once more looming up as pennant possibili- ties.
