 Jimmy Slagle, the former big league outfielder, is said to be just about all in as a ball player. It is stated that Slagle will be released by Baltimore, where he played last season.

GOTCH HAS CAUSED
 NEW STYLE IN WRESTLING.
| Champion Mat Artist Follows Out New f Line With Success.

Champion Frank Gotch must be given credit for revoluti0nizing the wrestling game Before Gotch's time, speed and avoiding punishment were considered secondary matters. About the time Gotch was coming into the wrestling title the American mat ar tists were refusing to meet the ex- tfemely heavy men being imported, notably the Turks. who began to flood the country after Youssuff cleaned up. Wrestling was conducted pretty much along lines of strength and weight at that time and speed was not regarded as much of a necessity. Punishment was understood. to some extent, but it was not scientifically applied, and when there was much of it it was gen. orally because there was a lot of foul work. Wearing a man down con- sisted mainly in getting him on the mat and laying around. on him so as to tire him out by sheer weight
 Gotch changed this almost com pletely. He was about the same as other wrestlers up to about the time he had to meet Hackensehmidt, and the indications are that he changed his plans mainly for this bout, as he feared the Russians great size and strength. As a result, Gotch spent most of his time while training working out a sys- tenn whereby he could keep from being put on the mat and at the same time worry and wear down his opponent.
 How successful he was was shown when he had his opponent beaten be- fore ever the two went to the mat Throwing him when finally Gotch con- cluded it was time to risk grappling with the Russian was a mere matter of form, as Hackenschnidt was too weak then to defend himself. Ever since Gotch has resorted to the same tactics when he is against an oppo- nent who is heavier and stronger than he iS

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,

Market Advances on Saturday Made Up for Early Week Losses.

New York, Feb. 1S.-The stock mar ket opened active and strong with a continuation of yesterdays late buying movement. Southern Railway was especially strong, owing presumably to yesterdays dividend announcement. the preferred advancing l IA and the common l. United States Steel on sales of 12,o00 shares in the first few minutes advanced 1-2 and Reading, Lehfgh Valley, Southern Pacific, Can adian Pacific and Union Pacific gained q like amount. St. Paul was up 3-4.
 Il a. m.-Operations on the long side of the market were conducted with growing confidence and were re- flected in steadily rising prices in place of the realizing sale< which the rise induced. Round amounts of the important issues were bid for and as they forged steadily upward, the whole market followed suit. By the end of the first hour advances had been effected of about a point in many of the favorite stocks, including Unit ed States Steel, Reading, St. Paul Southern Pacific and Lehigh Valley. The new city bonds touched 1O2. the highest price yet reached.
 Close.-The market closed active and strong. Further improvement was shown by the market in the final hour on fairly large volume of busi- ness. The advance was quite gen. eral and in numerous instances re- duced to an inconsiderable degree losses recorded in the midweek's de- cline.

WATERBURY FRANCHISE SOLD.
Oklahoma Purchaser, But His Name
 is Not Known

Harold R. Durant has at last suc- ceeded in disposing of the Waterbury baseball franchise, or his New York agent, Nat c. Strong by name, has adopted clever methods of advertising his business. According to Strong, he has sold the Waterbury club to an Ok lahoma man, but he refuses to make the name of the purchaser public.
 The following brief note appeared In New York despatch
 Nat c. Strong, the local baseball promoter, has disposed of the Water bury club of the. Connecticut league, which has been on the market for sev- eral months. Strong would not tell the name of the buyer, but said the man is from Oklahoma and is not d ball player"
 All efforts to learn the name of the new owner proved futile. Durant is in New York. A message to him brought no answer. It is known, however, that McPartlin, who had been appointed manager in case the franchise was not disposed of, had been present at the National league meeting, but was ig- norant of any deal. Durant did not at tend the baseball meeting.
 Durant announced several months al go that he had appointed Nat C. Strong, whose business is "amuse- ments,'' his agent and that all busi- ness concerning the disposal of the Waterbury club would be done through him. Reports have been sent out at various times about a probable sale. but nothing definite was ever done.

GOING AFTER THE BEST
 IN THE occIDENT. The Russian Lion Will Tackle Tough Propositions in India, China and Ja- nan.

In India. China and Japan Hacken- schmidt will probably tackle the tough est propositions of all. He is, however, well versed in the mat lore of the world. and is anxious to mix with the faction of seeing how good he is him are grapplers above the ordinary sphere whose abilities are far above the ordinary. but whose fame is so purely localized we would not recog- nize their names if We saw them in print.
 In Europe and in the United States wrestling has become an important profession, and the stars are paid on the be- sis of their names and their ability-just as though they were twinlding in the theatrical skies. But in the Antipodes, where advertising has not reached the high point of per- lection it $ attained in the Occident -the wrest.srs go on at smaller purses and almost purely for the local honors bestowed upon them.
 It is going to be Tfackenschmidt's business to hunt out the best men in all these countries, and when his tour is completed there will be no question in his mind as to the relative merits of all the best men in the world. There has never been a time in the history of athletics when wrestling was so universally popular as 1t is today-and it is doubtful if the next three or four generations will have so many finished men as those who represent the differ ent nationalities and sections at this time.
