 New York Dec. 5.-Operations in the stock market today were so tri- fling as to call for little comment Prices backed and filled within frac- tional limits, for the most part, and the days business was limited to the pro1essionaI party, which at the mo- ment seems tndisposed to make a move in either direction. Such issues as Atchison, New York Central and Baltimore x Ohio were subjected to pressure at times, but responded al- most immediately to support

 Some light was thrown on last weeks meeting in this city of the steel and iron men by unofficial ad- vices from Pittsburg, which declared, in substance, that the conference was called at the instigation of some lead ing railroad officials, who were in- sistent in their demands that prices be revised downwards.

 New York; Dec 5.-Four-teen teams were still whirllng around Madison square Garden tonight fin the six-day plc%cie race At 10 o'clocg. the 22d Tour Tour score showed all tied at 4S1 miles. ', nus beats the former record for the hour of 476 miles ' laps made in 1qoq
 Although the pace set all day and Idst night was record breaker. only one team had dropped out as midnight came and went. The terrific clip. how ever, proved too much for Germain and Vertinden, the French Belgtan teagn
 and they retired during the seventh honr, after having been left hopelessly in the rear.
 The average speed for the day was aoouf 21 miles an hour, but between 10 o'clock and midnight toniefht eeIl- erai stirring sprints were started and new marks were made every five min utes. The most prominent factors in these frantic attempts to steal a. lap

tlon to judge it better than anyone who has rowed at Yale in recent years.
 entered college in the fall of 1897, m tune to see the last of the Cooil and l remained on the ground until June, 1904. In 1897 Bob Cook was in his rowing Edotage,' so to speak; his ideas were not fixed, as they had for merIy been, and he had lost his self confidence. The graduates who re- turned Tor the spring coaching for a day or two at a time could not be in 9 position to be of valuable assistance in active coaching They had not been on hand to watch the development in the rowing of the men as individuals or as a crew.
 "Dr. Gsallaudet who followed Bob Cook as coach. put his whole hearF and soul into the work: but, although a finished oarSman himself he had not the coaching experience that is essen tita1 to accomplish results. His theories were not based on sufficient practice.
 T have seen graduates coach men for weeks at a time in a vain endeavor to make them row like the rest of the boat, and then appeal to John Ken nedy, who corrected the louble over night by simply changing the rigging of the boat. By raising or lowering the mans slide or outrigger the cor rection would be made, and the next day that man would row like the rest of the crew, without ever knowing that things were different-except that he might feel more natural or comfortable, and be able to get more power into his stroke. The rigging is something that does not enter into the matter in football coaching, and it makes crew coaching 9 different proposition. When I was in Law school in 1902 I saw John Kennedy come into actual control. With him in supreme control of the active coaching, Yale turned out winning crews, the coaching problem was solv- ed. and while he holds the same posi- ton we must look elsewhere for the cause of the decline.
 Tn 1904 the new trouble began tn appear-the lack of material. Men who won their " on the football field or who felt reasonable sure of ulti- mately winning it did not come out for the crew.
 Neither Yale nor any other college has proved that a winning crew can be turned out without material, and that I consider the entire trouble at the present time"

(Copyrighted, 191t PADDY cARRoLL's TROUBLES.

One of the greatest characters in all the fighting game is Paddy Carroll, who, of late, has ben making matches for club at Memphis. Paddy, in his youth, was q corking good heavy weight one of the gameSt that ever donned the gloves, even if he never rose to the glory of Corbett or a Sui liVan. After he gave up the game as 9 participant, he undertook to manage fighters and run boxing clubs. In both pursuits he was quite successful, and was enlinently square.
 Still, despite his squareness, Paddy could never quite get over his racial sentiments. Too bad that he wasn't the third man in the ring at Reno Jim Jeffries win, if he had to disqualify Jack Johnson for making monkey faces.
 One night, many, many years ago, there was a minor heavyweight bout for which the eminent MT. Carroll was chosen referee. Neither of the com batarts ever amounted to anything afterwards, but this fight was, for them. the greatest thing that ever hap pened. One of them was Turk nam- ed Michael Sullivan-the other was a sable gent known as Gloomy Jones.
 In the first round, the dingy person waltzed in with terrific emphasis, and carried MT. Sullivan quite off his feet with the vehemence of his Queensberry interpretation. MT. Sullivan retreated round the ring, closely pursued by MT. Jones, who rained in the wallops from every possible angle. Mir. Carroll, with worried, anxious eye, witnessed the proceedings Finally, in one furious rush, Mir. Jones swung left and right to the expression, and down went MT. Sullivan.
 @Git up, Sullivan" quoth Ir. Carroll "One. Are Ye hurted, MT. Sullivan? Two. Git back, black man, or I'll dis qualify veg. Three. Git up, Sullivan, git up. Never let q nagur bate yez Fogsv. Now, black man, step back

JOHNSON HAS BRAIN PHOTOGRAPHED
Champion Heavyweight Prizefghter Finds Memory is Uncertain and Fears Insanity--Examinaton Perform ed at Washington Park Hospital Shows Him o. K

Chicago, Dec. s.-Jack Johnson, champion heavyweight, is at his home trying to discover if he is insane He has been told that he is. He brooded oVr his condition and underwent sev- eral examinations. These tests did not satfsry.
 His sanity has been doubted, and he could not stop worrying. He wanted a picture of his brain to see if there was anything wrong, and Sunday evening the cranium of the world s; mightiest fighter posed" for an X-ray photograph. The examination was per formed at the Washington Park hos pital and Johnson came through the test with flying colors Drs. ". F. Lorimer and T. T. Matlock made the exposure.
 We took 2 slxiagraph Of the head or n %-ray photograph of Jonnson's 8 skull to see if there was any depres- sion in the skull that would affect the brain,' said Dr. Lorimer. "The expos- ure shows an indentation on the ex- terral table of the crandum. but the internal table appeared perfectly nor mai. The X-ray picture shows no evil dence that the fighter is in danger of insanity"
 Johnson breathes easier but his brain has played such tricks with him that he is uncertain of the future. Oae hour he can emember incidents per- fectly and the next he cannot recall the name of his oldest friend. He was told by Boston physician chat his days were numbered AIthoush not matched to fight, he has started to train. Every day since he returned home he has plodded from five to ten miles on the roads and gone through boxing bouts and gymnasium exer- cises. He aibstained from wine and became real devotee of the simple life. Stll he brooded over the threat ened nervous breakdown
 He said tonight that to convince himself absolutely that there was nothing wrong with his nerves he would have his brain pfhotogra nFled again in Q few days.

Six For the last toime. black man, must I tell ye to step away and give the man a chance to rise? Seven" and Sullivan clambered to his feet. MT. Carroll lum- bered between them, wholly by acci- dent, and the gong rang before the ne- gro could get to his man.
 In the second round, Sullivan came out of his corner, much refreshed, and mingled desperately with the African A wild swing went home. and over rolled Mir. Jones. He was stunned, and rose to his knee intending to take the nine count ere rising to the fray. But he had no chance.
 One three, six. eight, ten, and out!' roared Mr. Carroll. "Sull' 'van wins the decSion!"
 Mir CarrolPs last appearance as 8 referee was when Hugo Kelly and Young Mahoney fought at Milwaukee. Age was telling on MT. Carroll, but his portico and general girth were telilng a blamed sight more Inside of one round he was all in. After that, when- ever the fighters came to a clinch, Mr. Carroll tottered to them, fell upon their brawny shoulders and allowed them to prop him up till he could get his breath When I holler Break me boys.'' said he, then don't you break. Hang on for all you're worth, and give me fair chance to get me Wind.''
 The fight went on heroically. It takes some courage to hold up a 250 pound referee as well as battle with the gloves. and by the fifth round both warriors were exhausted. But the ref cree was worse off by far. Poor Dad dy's knees bucl1led under him, and it was only by summoning all his stam- ina that he could reach the middle Of the ring for every round. In the last session, he simply fell upon Kelly and Mahoney at every opportunity, and the fighters spent fife last tpro minutes holding up the brave old referee, not 8 blow being struck at each other And. in gratitude for their kindly con- sideration, he called the fight a draw,

Aeroplanes fer saGtIe ships.

An aeroplane costs s50G0. An ar mored cruiser costs s5.000 eco.
 The best of our armored cruisers, the Tennessees and the Montanans, have been rendered obsolescent by the Inflexible and the Won der Tam. Nor are we building rew ones to succeed them
 Therefore the aeroplare as an ad- iunct to the battiechiu. becomes 8 matter of interest, both medically and economically.
 The coming attempt of an aeroplane to fly from the deck of an ocean steamer back to New York harbor is s matter of prime moment. Though the federal government has rescinded the order detailing torpedo boats to assist in the experiment the navy de- partplent will keep official watch on it.
 The, result of the experiment may determine whether the naval author ities will equip the next new battle- ship with als aeroplane and the neces- sary facilities for making a flight from

WOULD HAVE TRAINING
 FOR UMPlRES.
Latest innovation to Be Proposed in
 Baseball.

Chicago. Dec. 5.-Spring training for unpires is the latest innovation to be proposed in baseball. Charles c. Will Hams. secretary treasurer of the Cubs, is the man behind the idea, and Charles w. Murphy, the Chicago president, will be asked to present the motion before the annual session of the National league on Dec. 13 in New York.
 The players are required to put in five or six weeks of hard practice in the south every spring" said MT. Will Hams yesterday, and if the club own CTS deem it proper to send their ath- letes away for the purpose of bright ening up their batting eyes, why wouldn't 1t be a good idea to give the umpires a like course of treatment? It stands to reason the men who handle the indicators are bound to be a little off form as regards the judgment of balls and strikes, especially after idling through the months of Noven- ber. December. January, February, March and a good part of April"

NEW STROKE IN TENNIS.
Two Players Claimed to Have Invented
 Peculiar Move.

R. F. Callahan, a Spokane, Wash. tennis player, and his playing partner, c. E. Cole, claim to have invented a peculiar new stroke in tennis which will bear something of the same rela- ton to that game that the splitter does to baseball. The team has used the stroke with signal success all through the present season, not losing a single set this year. This team has been winning all sorts of ma tches for stakes and side bets of varying sizes in the northwest this summer. Calla- han refuses to discuss the new stroke, but states that it Is utterly impossible to handle 1t on the other side Of the net when 1t is properly delivered.
