JENNINGS SAYS YANKEES
COULD BEAT THE GIANTS
WOULD HAVE WON LAST YEAR
BUT FOR MATHEWSON.
On Form Shown in Series American
Leaguers Are Strongest.

New York, oct. 21.-Hughey Jen-
nngs says the New York Yankees are
q better bali team and play better than
the Giants.
"McGraw will tell YOU the same
thing" said Jennings. "He told me the
Yankees would have beaten the Giants
every game i'm the New York series last
fall If it had not been for Mathewson.
McGraw believes the Yankees have 1t
on his team in everything but base
running, when Mathewson is not pitch
ing"
Jennings statement led to a COM
parison of the Giants with American
league players by the BAH players who
covered the worlds series for newspa-
pers. The player scribes included
George Mullin. Iris Speaker, Ty Cobb,
Charley Wagner, Nap Rucker and
Clyde Engle.
They agree tthat Bert Shotten Of the
Browns. Cobb. Jimmy Austin, Amos
Strunk, Joe Jackson and Olaf Hen
erickson, Boston Red Sox outGelder
are faster than John Devorc I'm getting
to first base. Devoro is the fastest
Giant.
They picked Larry Doyle as the
greatest Giant baserunner. Doyle, they
agreed, is not nearly so fast as Cobb
ana other American league speedcrs.
but great starter from first base,

rivaling the only Ty in that respect.
1t was agreed that the Giants. as a
whole, are faster runners than any
team in the American league Chief
Myers is the only regular who isn't a
good runner.
why didn't the Giants steal more
bases?" was the next question.
The unanimous answer was that
American league pitchers held base
runners on first base better than the
National league twirlers. Mathewson.
the best National league pitcher at
holding runners close To first, is
Mullin, Donovan and Ford. 1t was
agreed.

Widest Trading Of the Year in the
Chicago Wheat PIT
Tuesday.

CHICAGO. June 2O.-POssibly the
widest trading of the year turned the
grain pits today into bedlam. Hot
weather damage TO crops put a nerve
wrecking strain on prices. Realizing
OF profits diminished the excitement
in wheat near the close, lowering the
market from extreme figures, but
other cereals held tight. Wheat fin

Wall Street is Very Dull
Stocks Give Away Slowly With Small
Volume Of Business in
Days Trading.

NEW YORK. June 2O.-Stocks gave
way slowly today TO a comparatively
small amount of selling. The market
was unusually dull. A few stocks.
such as Great Northern preferred.
Canadian Pacific. Denver and Rio
Grande. the Erie's. International Har-
vester and the Electric and Telephone
shares lost a point or more. while
Norfolk and Western and some less
active issues exhibited considerable
uearength. Otherwise changes were
confined to a narrow range through
the day and trading was featureless.
II is recognized that crops are
passing through n critical period. and
until more definite information is re-
ceived trades generally do not venture
TO commit themselves heavily TO
either side OF the market.
This hesitation is increased by re-
ports OF extensive damage. which are
being received with persistence and
which have given rise TO considerable
uneasiness.
The Hill stocks were among the
weakest OF standard railroad issues.
Selling of(-these stocks originated
was based on reports of damage to
the spring wreat crops. contradicting
the more favorable report from Wash
ington in this particular. Despite the
weakness in a number of places. how
ever. the list exhibited considerable
underlying strength as was indicated
by it's steadincss in. the face OF a
decline of nearly four points late in
the day by American Telephone.
News that the directors OF the tele-
phone company had recommended an
increase of $4,000 I'm capital stock
was the signal for the most vigorous
move Of the day by bear traders who
succeeded in driving IL down rapidly.
despite the favorable influence ex-
- rted by the earlier announcement
that the stock was traded in on the
Paris bourse today for the first time.
There was further active trading on
the curb" today in the new Panama
bonds. more than $4,000. 600, OF which
sold when issued" from $lO27s 10
$l03ts. the price tending toward the
lower figure following publication OF
the figures at which awards were
made. The results of the offerings
as finally shown were quite in line
with the expectations OF bankers. who
were prepared to see a large proper
ton Of the loan awarded to individu.
ais, trustees OF estates and various
institutions other than banks BE
fore the government can market the
remaining $4,000. 600 Panama bonds
authorized. bankers believe. the price
may come within the range OF what
they are willing TO pay.
The bond market was irregular
American Telephone convertible fours
weakened with the stock. Total sales

United States bonds were unchanged

LONG AND BITTER
 STRUGGLE FEARED
Three Cause Complete Stop page of Many Mills in
 Lancashire

Manchester, England, December 27.- The refusal of one man and two wom- en to join a trade union. coupled with the decision of the master cotton spin ners to close their mills three days in the week, caused a complete stop page of a great portion of the cotton mills in northeast Lancashire tonight. Efforts are already afoot to bring about a settlement, but as one woman, who left the union after 20 years, because she believes that the benefits are not commensurate with the payments, per- spinners insist upon their right to maintain open shop, a long and bit ter struggle is feared. There is dan ger, too, of the fight spreading to other industries.
 The lockout involves 160,000 weavers
 and nearly an equal number of spin
