FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
STOCK ADVANCE CHECKED
Spectators Unload Their Holdings at
a Substantial Profit.

New York. May 1s-Extensive prof
ii taking sales today checked the rap
i'd advance in stocks which began aft
er the announcement of the supreme
outstrfDped any similar movement of
the year. Realizing was in progress
all day long. but the demand was suf-
ffcaently large to absorb all offerings
In the 4Tst part of the session and
substantial gains were made, many of
the active issues moving I'D a point
or more. The buying Iaclsed the en-
thuEiasm of the two preceding days,
and at midday trading fell off.
Professional traders were ranged on
the seskng side, and they were able to
exert sufficient force when the rnar-
kets buying power diminished to halt
the advance ana bring about moderate
occasions The tone was hesitatinx
during the latter part Of the day and
the market fell back from it's high
point, although prices were reduced by
only small fractions. The change in
tome was due to technical conditions
rather than to any reversal of senti-
ment. Union Pacific had advanced
nearly seven points frenl it's close on
Monday to its hiSh price of today
points. ara Reading four points Al
most every stock In the List sold at
figure which offered prints suffi-
clen<ly attractive to bring on todays
movement.
Speculative interest in United States
Steel WAS mknished, ana 1t again
led the market in point of activity 1t
times dealing in this stock was very
active, bull traders buying 5000 or
zoos share lots. Other steel stocks
were strenK. Bethlehem Steel scored
good advance, and Colorado Fuel,
which has been inactive for several
weeks, was one of the strongest issues.
While the movement in Uuiter States
Steel was largely speculative, the steel
stocks were helped by reiterated re-
ports of better trade CONDITIONS.
Strength of the copper group was
marked. AmaIgamated Copper and
Anaconda improved substantially, and
American Smelling gained nearly two
points al its high price of the day. The
strength displayed by these issues was
aserihed to the frmness of the copper
market here and abroad, and to an un-
confirmed report that the copper rner-
ser, projected some time sgc. would
be brought about in the near future.
American Smelling. which has extern
.sive interests in Mexico, benefited also
from prospects of peace in that ceun-
try.
The money market was roticeabiv
stronger today, owing to the increased
demand for funds for stock market
purposes. Activity in the bond mar
ket continues unabated and is she wn
by the rapid absorption of ponds. A
case in point is the almost mined; ate
sale today of about $4,000, geo, of Cen
trail New England railroad bonds
The bond market was firm. Total
sales. par value, $5,Sfs, 05o. United
States bonds were unchanged on call.

Hides
JOE WALcoTTs OVERLAND
HIS MOST EFFECTIVE BLOW.
The Giant Killer Was Terrific Pun
isher at Short Range.

In writing of the great American
fighters and how the natural boxer
has been peculiarly a development of
the American ring. W. W. Naughton
makes the point that it is worthy of
note that the most effective of the nat
ural fighters this country has known
during the past fifteen or twenty years
were colOrcd men. Of these none had
greater vogue that joe Walc0tt, who,
on account of his peculiar build, Pc
culiar talents and his particular effect
ivAness when sent against men taller
and heavier than he was, sometimes
called Joe the giant killer.
Overland blows were WaIcott's long
suit, and he could deliver them in a
notably Damaging way when his frame
ponent. In the old days-mere partic-
tllarly the cIean-break days-I have
known excited spectators to yen at
tottering pugilist. Keep close to him
and he will not be able to hurt you"
In the main it was safe advice to
follow, too, for the old style fighter
hal to push his man away and meas
ure him in order to inf1ict damage.
But Waleott upset all such notions,
for the closer he stood to man the
more he could punish. On account of
his squat build he could stand erect
with his face no higher than the aver
age mans chest and from this position
he iadled out overhanders which, from
the manner Of their delivery. caus ed
these who looked en- to wonder if Joe
had swivels In his shoulder.
He was certainly a holy terror while
he lasted. Any serious setbaclzs he
met with could generally be traced to
crookednass to which he was a party.
He was seldom bested on his morals
and 1t was>qulte a RELIEF to men II
every class7nrom light to heavy
when his dash deserted him and the
ring knew him no more.

GRIFFITH SUSPECTS
PHILLIES' SIGNAL TIPPING.
Cincinnati Manager Thinks He Knows
Secret of Swattina.

The only way to explain the wonder
full hitting by the Philadelphia Ma
tionals is by signal tipping thinks
Clark Griffith Of the Cincinnati Reds.
He acknowledged that he had alternat-
ed four different sets of signals in the
game on Tuesday to defeat the alleged
tipping The Philhes did not hit.
1t is his contention that No ball club
ever gotten together could hit as the
Phillies have been hitting without the
aid Of some signal service.
Harry Mclean, WIN was catching for
the Reds when the Phillies pulled off
their wholesale slaughter of Cincin-
natl pitchers, is even more certain
than Griffith. Larry claims the Phil
lies were stepping UP and into every
curve ball before it reached the plate
and that they were prepared for every
kind of a pitch.
Griffith pulled Larry out of the game
to give young SEVERED chance. At
least that was what Griffith said, but
Larry was stationed on the bench for
an inning trying to figure out with
Griffith just where the signal bureau
was located.
Several years ago the Phillies did
through an electrical contrivance op-
Grated by Catcher Morgan Murphy
which tipped off to the famous Petite
Childs, who always coached on third,
just what was coming to the plate,
and Childs Notified the batter. Any
sentence with ION" in it meant a curve
bail, and it, meant a fast one. With
the aid OF this signal tipping the Phil
lies soon earned reputation ~ the
greatest team OF sluggers the game has
ever known.

Sporting Editor Norwich Bulletin:
Dear Sir: VIII you tell me where

the crowd? / think Norwich people
know good baseball when they see it,
but do they always want to get it for
nothing? Last Saturday I was down
at the baseball game at the Hospital.
Everybody was satisfied with the
game. "Fine." they. said; but all that
the hat collected was IS cents. The
week before they got Is cents, / was
told. OF course they got the money
from the grand stand. too, but do
these other people always expect to
get their baseball for nothing How
long will the Hospital continue to run
games at that rate?
