Eddie Murphy put in a busy after
noon yesterday at O'ConnelIs getting
ready for his bout with George Mem
sic at Gary on Friday night. At the
conclusion of six fast rounds with Tim
Murphy and Dick Fitzpatrick the Bos-
ton lightweight found, after hopping
on the scales, that he was down to the
notch agreed upon-135 pounds at 3
o'clock. Memsic worked hard at the
Douglas A. c., taking on frankie White
and Pete Mates for six rounds. Mates
gave George a stiff enough workout TO
make the latter exclaim that he con-
sidered Pete of championship caliber.
Memsic is within a couple of pounds
of the weight and says he will have
no trouble in getting off the remain
ing superhuous poundage.

Season Series Here.

Shades of 1905. 1906 and 19O9-the
Sox and Cubs are going to battle
again. OF course such a meeting has
been generally regarded by the fan
army as a sure thing, yet up to yes
terday afternoon neither of the moguls
behind the two local major league ma
chimes had even limited al a post-season
series. The return Of Manager Chance
from St. Louis at the instance OF
President Murphy was followed by a
statement from Cub headquarters to
the effect that the west siders stood
ready to meet Duffys lads and in the
very near future.
With the last vestige of hope for an
other National league title pushed into
the discard Murphy yesterday stepped
to bat with the first shot of the series
which is destined to terminate in an
other Chicago civil war pitting the le-

st. Louis, Mo, Oct. 4.-The Cubs took
a mush game from the Pesky Cardi-
nails yesterday afternoon and thus kept
their heads above water for at least
another day. Roger Bresnahan used
sixteen athletes in an effort to beat
Chicago, but it was useless. The score
was Il to s, and before one Cub had
been put out in the first inning there
was never a doubt which team would
win.
On the St Louis side, pitchers were
used with reckless freedom. Five of
them, all told, had a turn at the slab.
1t took three of them to get the side
out in the first round, OF the five the

HIGH COST OF LIVING
Is FAST DECLINING;

Chicago.-The high cost of living
problem, over which the entire coun-
try was deeply agitated a few months
ago, seems in a fair way of solution.
High prices, which drove the house
wife almost to the point of distraction
a year ago, has been hit resoundins
whack
All kinds of meats and cereals show
a marked decline from the prices of
a year age. Poultry, butter and eggs
are much lower, and the wholesale
price of flour is about 81 a barrel low
er than the corresponding period a
year ago.
The ultimate consumer" may not
! have noticed a great difference, per
haps, for the retailer cannot follow
/ the market as closely as the whole
saler and the path of the steer from
the farm to the table is long and tor
! tuous. Itmakes difference also
what part of the city you live in.
| In a few lines, especially in coffee
ana dried fruits, prices are higher
than a year ago, due. the dealers say,
to natural causes. The spring wealth
er in March, 1910, followed by win
ter weather in April and May, killed
a large part of the fruit crop. which
accounts for the higher prices at this
time. Prunes of the ordinary board
ing house variety are sellink about
cents a pound higher than a --yeal
ago, apples cents a pound higher
land apricots cents a pound. Canned
tomatoes and canned peas are abou
10 cents a dozen higher than a veal
ago and coffee is 6 cents a pounC
higher.
Salmon is the only other edible
which has advanced in price from {
year ago, due, it is said. to recen
legislation in oregon, which has pro
! hibited certain kinds of fishing ant
curtailed the output.
