A WAITING TONE |WHEAT UNCHANGED
Prevails in the Stock Market--Specu"
lators Are Watching the
Trend of Events.

New York, Sept. 19.-The stock
market today showed nothing but an
insistent determination of the specu'
lation to mark time and to await
events. On the opening decline prices
disclosed some buying demand at the
lower level, which was attributed to
supporting orders by those interested
in properties, and to the uncovered
short interest.
Later the supposition was given
color by the borrowing demand in the
loan department at the stock ex
change, where money is loaned below
the market rate for the sake of Sc
curing desired stock for delivery on
contracts for sale.
Such borrowing demand is neces'
sary accompaniment of short selling,
but It is impossible to stimulate a
snort interest by sellers of long stock
borrowing for delivery and retaining
their own shares.
The borrowing demand was most
noticeable in few stocks which have
constituted the bulk of deals for a
long time past. The relief from sell
ing was sufficient to effect the tone
If the whole market. Net changes
at the end of the day proved incense
quential. Immediate events had lit.
tic effect on the market.
The rise in the price of copper at
London was an incident of the day.
The steel trade advices were not al
tered in tone.

RIVALS RESUME
SPORT RELATION
Davenport and Rock Island
High Schools Will Compete
in Track Events.
THE FIRST IN FOUR YEARS
Athletics Between Two Schools Dis
continued In 19O6-Best OF
Feeling Now Exists.

! The first tri-city track meet in sew
eral years will be held April 30 at
Exposition park and the high schools
of the tri-cities will have good teams
entered. There has been no three
cornered meets since athletic relations
were broken of with Davenport in
1906, and for this reason there has
been considerable OF a decline in the
interest which usually attaches to this
fine sport. Through the good Offices
of Moline, friendly relations have been
restored between Davenport and Rock
Island, and they have finally agreed
to shake hands and declare all their
animosity over with. There has in
fact never been any serious frictioH
between the two schools and they
have remained on excellent terms dur
ing the years since the athletic rela-
tions were discontinued.
Davenport f. Strong.
The team which is to represent the
Iowaons in the tri-city meet is cracked
up to be a dandy and the Davenport
students confidently expect TO wiz.
They claim to have sure point win
ners in every event Captain Mitten
is the star man of the squad, his
records in the shot put and hammer
throw being excellent. The team has
been having indoor practice for some
time and is in good shape to put forth
effective efforts when the time comes
Moline also has some good men who
must be reckoned with. In the class
meet which was held Friday afternoon
CLAIR, VOTERS and Schwartzenberg
made good showings and the rest OF
those entered displayed signs of abil-
ity. The senior class won the meet
in handy fashion with "A points TO
their credit.
Locals Look Good.
The local team of athletes looks very
good and is expected to come very
close to winning the meet, or at least
to make the winner go some. Under
the coaching of Floyd w. Gray the
boys have been at work for weeks and
they are rapidly rounding into condi-
ton. The class meet will be held
either Saturday or the following week
and it will give the coach a better
line on who his best men are. There
are several men from last years team
who are depended upon TO win points

occasion. There were two down and
a man racing in from third with the
ball coming in from center following
a perfect heave from little Freddie
Ochs. The ball plunked into Fishers
glove and he put it en- the runner,
but was unfortunate enough TO drop
it. This let one man in and the other
followed on Davey's error.
Hit the Ball Hard.
The real feature OF the game was
the heavy continuous hitting of the
Islanders. NO one seemed able to
stop them, although three pitchers
were tried against them, the last be-
ing no other than the redoubtabIc
Nick Altrock. late the idol of the Cks-
cago White Sox. Fisher and Jacobsen
were the particular stars in this de-
partment each landing on the ball
for three safetias. Fishers drives
were terrific. one a triple. another a
double and the third a single. Big
Jake made two singles and double
Slattery also proved a whirlwind i'll
this department, getting two beauti-
full drives, and aiding materially in
the counting Hunter and Ochs were
the only ones outside of the pitchers
who failed to connect safely and yet
the playing of both these men was
sensational. Both succeeded in get
ting on bases, where they showed
their wonderful speed to advantage,
each man scoring a run.
Lots OF Features.
The batting did not furnish the only
feature of the game by any means,
as Slattery's work at first was close
to marvellous. 1t was the general YER
dict of the fans that he is one of the
classiest first basemen that has ever
played on the Islander team. He
covers ground in great style and eats
up everything that is thrown at him
He made one back handed stab at the
ball with his gloved hand and held
it when it seemed to everyone that it
was due to go clean through to the
bleachers and let in nobody knows
how many runs. Kelley made a beau
tiful catch in the third inning when
Kruger knocked a high foul, and Ochs
and Hunter both made nice running
catches. Ochs' throw TO the plate in |
the sixth inning was a daisy. It came
in on line and right to the spot, and
ought to have stopped the run and
ended the inning The game on the |
whole was a beauty The score:
