Hans WAGNER has fine
RECORD WITH The BAT
Flying DutChman Has Collected
1881 Hits in Thirteen Years
of Career.
BATTING IS MOST CONSISTENT

Some marvellous statistics are re-
vealcd when one delves into the record
OF Hans Wagner, who has been play
ing big league base ball since 1897 and
who looks good for almost another
decade OF work i'm the fastest COM
pany I'm the land.
glance through the records will
show that in 10 years the Flying
Dutchmdn has taken part in 1,743
games. He has scored 1888 runs and
made 1881 hits. He has also stolen
SOS bases. lie has played an average
Of 1874 games each season, and has
come close to averaging 100 runs a
year. Had he played in all the games
the first year he joined the Louisville
club his average would have been
over 100 runs each season, but i'm 1897
he was not secured from the Paterson,
n. j., club until the campaign was wen
under way, and took part in only 81
games
No Slump for Honus.
"Honus" has never had a lasting
slump in his hitting in all the years Of
h;s career. OF course, there have
been times each season when his bat
ting eye was dlmmed, but it was only
temporarily, and he always came back
and hit the ball so much the harder
after the slump was over. His con-
sistency rs a sticker is shown by the
fact that in 10 years he has averaged
practically $50 bingles per season. His
best years were 1900 and 1908, in each
of which he made POI safeties With
the exception of his first year i'm fast
company, ne has never made less than
17O hits year.
Wagner has been just as consistent
on the bases as he has been with the
bat as is evidenced not alone by the
number OF runs he has scored, but as
well by the large number of bases he
has purloned, an average of about A
every year. His best season at sack
thieyery was in 1907, when he stole 81
Last year was the poorest he has had
since 1898, but that can be partially
accounted for by the fact that Hans
was under orders to save his strength
as much as possible and to take no
unnecessary chances.
What in 1910?
If Wagner does as well the coming
summer as he has ever done i'm the
past when the 1910 records are compil-
ed they will show that the big Car
negie Teuton has competed i'm over
/, 800 games that he has scored more
than 1000 runs, made over $500 hits
and stolen over 600 bases during his
baseball life. To give him total of
1900 runs he will need to score but 67,
which, is far under his average. TO
give him $500 hits, he has to make
but 1863. TO bring his total of stolen
bases up to the 600 mark, he needs but
% steals, and this number is also UNI
der his average.

SJANISLAUS ZBYSzKO Is
MASTER OF MANY TONGUES
Great Polish Wrestler Who Will
be Seen Here is University
Graduate.
MEETS LEHTO ON TUESDAY

Copper country people are evinclne
considerable interest ana enthusiasm
In the coming wrestling match between
karl Lehto, the copper country Fin
nish champ, and Zbyszko, the giant
pole which is to take place at the Pal
estra. Tuesday evening. 1t is reported
that the seat sale has been large i'm all
Of the towns surrounding Calumet and
that indications point to n packed
house. Because of the nationality OF
the two men, much partisan feeling
las been aroused and some heavy bets
will undoubtedly be placed on the
outcome Of the match and the length
of time Lehto can stay with the Pole,
II being generally conceded that the
latter is the better wrestler.
Zbyszko IS much more accomplished
than most wrestlers OF the present day,
ne being the master or aro C'ferent
languages. 4 shoot hiEtory OF the man
who is to meet Lohto, VIII be az local
interest.
Stanislaus Zbyszko Cygan;eWlcs Is
the full and almost unproaouaesa. e
name of the great Polish wrestler who
will be seen in the copper country.
The strong man OF Poland has been
called Zbyszko since coming to this
country His name has been short
cned because the people can pronounce
Il with some degree of correctness. Even
as IT is. the name of the wrestler is
pronounced different ways.
The man who came to America with
the express determination of taking
the heavyweight championship OF the
world back Go Europe with him was
born i'm the little village Of Stanislaw-
ice, i'm the province of Galicia ana in
addition to his great strength and
prowess on the mat. he is a graduate
of the University of Vienna and has
served as a lieutenant i'm the Austrian
army. Like the word-famous Hack
cnschmidt, who was also graduate Of
an European college and a civil en-
ginccr by education, Zbyszllo is a gen.
tlcman and is far above the usual pro-
fcssional in intelligence and intellect
ual attainments. Although he has
wrcstlcd all of the leading mat artists
and has been in many countries of the
world Zbyszko gives his age as 2S
years.
Zbyszko has been wrestling since he
was fourteen years of age. one year
later he began to take serious interest
in the sport. He took instruction un-
der one of the best professional wres-
tiers in Austria. He began wrestling
some Of the less known wresuers OF
Austria. Zbyszko went to Vienna and
wrcstlod Raicevich, the italian wrest-
Ter, who was recently beaten by Frank
A. Gotch i'm this country. He was but
20 years of age at the time he met the
Italian. The Italian won the match.
At the age of "a Zbyszko graduated
from the University of Vienna, taking

uesree in law After leaving college
ne served one year as lieutenant of
infantry 1t was when Zbyszko left the
army that he seriously took up the
wrestling game as a means of liveli-
hood. He wrestlcd in Turkey. France,
Russia and England. He met Padou-
bny, the Russian giant, twice at Grae-
co-Roman, with neither man securing

feated the Russian. lie has defeated
Nenroulah, the Turk, the same man
who was seriously injured by George
Hackenschmdt. and who challenged
Frank Gotch when the worlds cham
pion was i'm England last year.
Hbyszko has also met Beck. Olsen,
Lurcck, the Russian, and Beaucarios,
the French champion, In 1896 ZbyszlIo
won the worlds Graeco- Roman title at
Paris, there being sixty-fve men en-
tered in the tournament. 1t was after
winning this tournament that zbyszko
took up the catch as- catch-can style
of wrestling. He defeated Padoubny
ut this more modern style OF the mat
game. He was also matched TO meet
iackenschmidt at this style, but the
two giants OF Europe never came to-
gether on the mat. Since the defeat of
Hackenschmidt by Frank Gotch there
has been an intense desire on the part
of the wrestling fans of Europe to
again take the worlds championship
to Europe. Their feeling can be real
lied when 1t is known that in Russia,
Austria and Turkey wrestling is con-
sidered the greatest sport in the world.
Frank Gotch is the first American to
wrcst the heavyweight title from an
European champion Muldoon and
Whistler, great American wrestlers as
they were, never attained to the title
of worlds champions.
Hackenschmldt defeated Tom Jenk-
ms for the title in Madison Square
Garden. The great Russian won the
match i'm two straight falls. 1t was the
ridiculous ease with which he won this
match that caused the Europeans to
ridicule the idea of Gotch defeating

enschmidt came as a shock TO the
wrestling enthusiasts of Europe, who
had seen Hackenschmidt handle Nour-
oulah, the giant Turk, with ease, and
TO toy with the giant. Joe Rogers, a
man weighing 26O pounds, and known
as the American Apollo whom Tom
O'Rourke took to England.
The great question i'm the wrestling
game, is whether Zbyszko can defeat
.Gotch. Many Americans viii answer
no. In Buffalo Zbyszko wrestled Gotch
to a draw. Gotch agreed to throw the
Polish champion twice in an hour, and
failed to secure anything approaching
a fall Gotch claimed he was not in
the best condition at the time. Zbys-
zko claims he is learning more about
the American style Of speedy wrestling
every day. There you have it,

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The lower levels reached today at the
meeting of the stock exchange in the
traction stocks was supposed to be due
In part to the passage yesterday by the
House of bill requiring Transfers be-
tween the different street car systems or
universal transfers in the District The
opinion expressed on the aoor of the
House during the debate that the meas
ure would be pronounced by the courts
has been held all along
by those interested in these properties
and In consequence UP to this time the
pending measure has had but little in
huence upon the course in the market of
the traction securities
There has been no change In this opin-
ion. so that both from this circumstance
as well as the character Of the trading
that went on today. 1t il by no means
certain that the lower prices recorded in
the case of the traction stocks was due
entirely to that cause. There was no
trading in the bonds Of the two COM
panies except one lot Of Washington
railway at S4H, and also no change in the
quotations as compared with those re-
corded yesterday.
However, in the case of the Capital
Traction stock while no stock changed
hands, the bid for it receded from 1.31
to 1.3O. with the asking price unchanged
at 1.32. One of the brokers, however, had
some Of the common stock Of the Wash
ington Railway Company for sale. The
bid for the stock yesterday was 1874 and
the asking price 80. There was no general
trading today.
The preferred stock has been selling
about on the level Of 90 and yesterday
that was the asking price. with 91as bid.
Today's sales were made at 9lz4 and one
lot at 91N. At the close the bid was OH.
with the asking price 81.
