Onward and out of the Manbrino Time mare that produced the good trotter Temple Bar, 2.17 3-4, and others. The dam of Belle Acton was the old-time pacer Lottie P, 2.171-4, by Blue Bull, an Indiana pacer that got lot of trot ward was noted as the sire of pacing speed, although his reputation was not achieved until after (being bred in Kentucky he had been sold to Penn sylvania breeder and by him resold to people in Nebraska. He got pair of crack pacers in Online, 2.04, and On- tonian, 2.07 1-2, and the family was right at the crest of it's popularity when Belle cton beat all previous yearling marks.
 The new record maker is even better endowed with blue blood than was his predecessor, although his sire, Tod dington, is too young to have 1oegotten many foals. Toddington is by Moko, dam Arion, POT 3-4, mare Fanella, 2.13, that produced the famous Sadie Mack, 2.06 IA. and the wonderful sire Todd, 2.143-4. A mare of such breeding and with so creditabIe a record, already a great producer, was a fine cross with Moko already established as fore most sire of colt speed, since he ran in the male line to George KWillSes, while the mare goes to Electioneer.

Weather EOrecaster Promises Game
Prospect That New York and Philadelphia Will Play Fourth Game Today-Morgan or Krause Likely to Oppose Ames or Wi1tse in the Box Work

Philadelphia Oct 1S-Notwlthstand- ing Forecaster Bliss said tonight that rain would probably not interfere with the fourth game of the worlds series scheduled to take place tomorrow at Shibc park between the New York Giants and the Athletics, drizzle set in shortly before ten o'clock, and the wind, which had shifted from east to west early in the afternoon, veered to the north.
 Almost an inch of rain fell during the day, but if the sun comes out warm tomorro the grounds can be put in good condition, because the diamond dries out quickly.
 Forecast Holds Out Hope.
 Ton1ghts forecast locally holds out encouragement for a game. Forecast CT Bliss says that while the day may not be an ideal one for the natlonai pastime he does not believe that there will be any rainfall.
 Both teams spent today at the lhe- aters and tonight several of the play CTS attended the bout between Leo Houc6 and Frank Elauss. at the Am erican Athletic club.
 The players are in good condition, with the possible exception ol bahei, who was spiked by Sncdgrass, and are anxious for the resumption of the series. -
 Guessing Who Will Pitch.
 Neither Manager Mack nor Manager McGraw would announce dehnltely their selections for mound duty to- morrow. It is well known here that Manager Mack is anxious to win the two remaining games and close the serie.. and his selection will depend entirely upon whom Manager McGraW stakes his fortunes. If tine latter, as runored tonight, should choose either Ames or Wiltse to do the twirllng to- morrow. Me ck, it is thought, will send either Morgan of Krause to the slap and save Bender for the fifth game to he played in New York on Friday Mack does net believe that Mathewson will be called upon to pitch a thlrd game and he opines that Marquafd will he sent in on Friday on the home grounds. where he would be less la b1e tc become nervous than in facing a rartisan crowd on the local grounds.
 "Fortunes of War;"
 Mack, always reticent, refused to- day to discuss the unfortunate Snod- grass incident He simply said it was one of the fortunes of war.

EXPECTED TIGHE TO
 Go1To ROCK ISLAND
Much Disappointment That He Is Not
 to Be There Again.

A special despatch from Rock Island, H., says:
 News that Jack Highe had signed to manage the Louisville American association team came like bolt from a clear sky to Rock Island ball fans. It was felt to be settled that he would take an interest in the local club and lead the team here next year and there is much disappointment, al- though every fan in Rock Island is glad to see him go to fast company. It is generally conceded that, next to Harry Sage, Jack is the most popular man that ever donned the pilots uni form in Rock Island and his presence here next year would have boomed the game. However, his ability as a gath erer and leader of baseball players has taken him beyond the confines of the LII. league and it is up to the Is- flanders to look to someone else for pilot.
 It was Jack Tighe that landed for the Islanders the only pennants that have been won by Islander teams in the LII. race. The machines which he built up and which fought to the last ditch for him, show his ability as a leader And there never was more popular winning manager on other fields. Not only has Jack proven his ability in Rock Island, but last year when he went to Seattle. he took hold of a losing team and brought it up fronr.the bottom perch. But for the interference of the owner of the club he would undoubtedly have finished at the top in the race. His career be- fore he came to Rock Island was just as brilliant as in the days that he was here.
 Louisville has made no mistake in selecting Tighe There is no question but what he will deliver the goods as far as ball playing is concerned and there is less question but what he

FIELD GOAL MAY
 SCORE ON VALE
West Point Has Some Star kickers
 for Saturday Game.

That the Army will try to score on field goals in the game with Yale at West Point Saturday afternoon is the consensus of opinion among followers of football today. The Army started it's work in preparation for the Yale game yesterday afternoon with a very light practice. Most of the coaching was on individual work, and the men who could kick were given much at tention. Reyes from the 40-yard line dropped 15 goals in succession. In last Saturdays game, the Army took every opportunity to try drop kicking or make a goal from placement, so much stress will be laid upon this feature of the game during the next few days It is not likely that the Cadets will do any heavy work until late this week, as they are advanced in the game for so early in the sea- son. Several of the men, however, are not in the best shape. Cook, the right end, is still in the hospital, and Find ley is nursing bruises, but got into the signal drill yesterday. Burnell and LittIejohn are also little off form. Hodgson, the speedy halfback, who has been developing rapidly, strained a tendon and will be out of the game for day or two. The athletic asso- citation reports great interest in the coming game. and with something like 1000 seats at their disposal they have 14,00e applicants.

WITH HARNESS HORSES. Frank Perry's YearIine Record Puts
 Mark Well Below 2.20.

The records for yearling pacers, which had stood since 1892 at 2.20 3-4, Belle Acton being the performer, final 1y has been taken well below the 2.20 mark-where it long ago belonged by the stallion Frank Perry's mile at Lexington recently. The time was in 2.15, the fractions being 34 1-2, LOS 1-2, 1431-2. For about month it has been known to horsemen that Frank Perry had the yearling record pacing mark at his mercy. With the record for yearling tratters att 2.19 1-2, the 2.15 notch is about right for pacers of that age. Belle Acton, which held the record for so many years, was a good deal more of a phenomenon in her day than is Frank Perry at present, be- cause then the mark for yearling trot- ters was 2.25 1-4, by Frou Frou, daugh ter of the stallion Sidney, that. later was bought by Justice Cartwright of the Illinois supreme court bench and died his property.
 Belle Acton was well bred enough, her sire, Shadeland Onward, being by

The Stock Carried Down Nearly Two
 Points to 58.

New York, Oct. 1S-Unremitting pressure against United States Steel was the conspicuous feature of to- days stock market. The stock was sold at every opportunity in such vol ume as to indicate that liquidation had been renewed and the constant pres sure carried it down nearly two points to 5S Selling of this stock apparent ly was due to soce extent to the report which reached Wall street that the United States Steel corporation prob able would abrogate it's lease of the Hill ore lands.
 The, stock market in general be- trayed a decided downward tendency but fluctuations were narrow until near the close except in the case of a few stocks which were subjected to especial influences.
 The bond market was irregular. American Tobacco issues showed the effect of further liquidation of specu- lStive ~holdings and lost ground. Wa bGshs fours also were heavy. Sea board Air Line adjustment lives and some other southern issues advanced sharply Total sales, par value, S2,- 35G.00C.

HARTFORD HIGH
 NEXT AGAINST ACADEMY.
Capt. Gebrath And His Men Will Have
 Fast Opponents Saturday.

Rain on Wednesday cheated the Academy football team out of chance to play Stonington, making the second time this season that a mid week game on the N. F. A. schedule has been checkmated by the weather.
 As Monday was nutting day at the Academy with consequently a holiday and no practice, Coach Leonard's charges have had little chance to get acquainted with the gridiron and un- less they get out today and Friday they will have to go up against Hart ford on Saturday here without the ad vantage that a good practice would have given them.
 Hartford High is coming here Sat urday and can be depended upon to have a team that is up to all the fine points of the game. Whether the Academy can pull off it's forward pass es with the same facility with which

 as End on Football Team. they have been worked against other opponents will be a question. It is quite likely that 1t will take all the cleverness of the two ends, Capt. Gebrath and Charles Croker to re- ceive the passes with any success from Falfback Mccormick.
 Baseball abilities are not usually supposed to work in especially strong for the football game, but Charlie Croker, the Academy pitcher, who is playing end, showed in one of the re- cent games what it is to have @ baseball eye even in the grfdiron game. Mc- Cormick shot a forward pass over the line to him, strong and high, which looked to the sideline crowd as if it is was clean over Crokers head but Charles broubht his old ability on judging flies into prac- tice, mailing the leather on the jump and hauling down the oval to a safe clutch in his arms which enabled him to add a few more yards before he was hauled to earth. The Academy captain on one end with Crocker at the other make two good guardinas for the flank positions.
