NEW LOW RECORDS. All Glasses of Stocks Affected by Downward Movement

New York. August 4-The stock market continued its retroSrade tend ency today by establishing number or new low records for the present movement All class of stocks par ticipated in the decline, which for the first time bore the marks of precipi- tate liquidation from various sources. together with a very liberal admixture of short selling. The bear party was more or less aggressive throughout, directing its energies no less upon the standard issues than upon those of more speculative value. Trading was most active when the market sold off and on the few fitful rallies became very dull
 In the early hours of the session the list manifested some disposition to- ward recovery, being aided in this di- rection by the better demand for our shares in London, where international stocks made general gains, but the ab- sence of anything like hearty support gave renewed encouragement to the short account, which maintained it's advantage to the close.
 Serious discussion of the market S weakness at this time would necessar- fly involve the recital of a number of subjects ranging from the political to the purely speculative or technical, not to mention industrial conditions which are far from satisfactory in
 
 the steel and iron trade.

HOUR FOOT RACE.
Professional Distance Stars Will Meet
 in Long Grind Aug. 13.

One of the greatest distance running contests ever seen in New ork will be staged by the Irish Volunteers at Gel tic Park on Aug. 13. The race will be professional affair, and instead of running any stipulated number of miles the athletes will run for an hour. The distancer having covered the most ground in the 50 minutes will pull down first money and will be hailed as the worlds champion for the hour race"
 The entries for the big hour ra to date are: Billy Queal of Alexandria Bay, the conqueror of the great Alfred Shrubb, and generally regarded as the fastest man in the world up to 20 miles: Abbie Woods of Canada; Jim Crowley, the ex-amateur Marathon champion; John Svanberg of Sweden: Carl Niemenen of Finland, and Matt Malsney. The Irish Volunteers man agement is also in communication with Tom Longiboat, the great Indian run nar, and Fred Meadows. the Canadian farmer athlete. and it is likely that both of these stars will start in the big race.
 It will be very surprising if Deer foot's worlds record for running one hour is not smashed in the Irish Vol unteers' race, because every induce ment for the pros to make the pace a killer will be held out. A s5 note will go to the leader at every mile. and a check for s25 will be handed to -he athlete who leads at the finish of the greatest number of laps during the progress of the race These extra speed inducements insure a red-hot pace from start to finish. and it is more than likely that the winner of the big race will bring home new fig ures. upsetting Deerfoot's Il miles. 970 yards, made while tlle famous Indian, -shod. athlete was campaign ing in England years ago.
 It is just possible that Hans Holmer. the Powderhal1 Marathon winner, who conquered Bouchard the great French man, will also be a starter in the Irish Volunteers hour race. Holmer has written that he expects to arrive in New York in a few days, and will surely toe the line if he gets here m time.

MAY RAISE SUSPENSION.
President Lynch, in View of Magee's Promise of Good Behavior, Will Soon ReIenf

New York, Aug. 4-President Lynch of the National league said today that in view of the players promise of future good behavior he might soon Sherwood Magee of the Philadelphia club. He said, however, that the pen atty Magee suffered for attacking Umpire F'inneran was deserved and that if he was allowed to re-enter the game it would be with the understand ing that he was on strict probation.
 ''The finding of the board of direc- tors is just what I expected it to be-" said President Lynch. There can. be no appeal from the ruling of the pres against a player on charges preferred by an umpire. The attack of player iMagee on Umpire Finneran was bru- tai and unwarranted. While the pen atty inflicted by me against the player is severe one, yet after all for the good of the game, the enforcement of discipline and to prevent occurrences of this kind on the ball field, there was nothing else for me to do. | realize that it was a severe blow to the Phil adelphia club. but it would have been far better for the club or it's officials player than to hove it appear that there was justification for his ac- tiop
 The player, MT. Lynch continued, has appeared before the board of d1- rectors and said freely that he was sorry that the incident occurred;s that he always tried to conduct himself in such a way as not to bring disrespect upon himself or on his profession. He also explains that in his anxiety to have his team win baseball glory for the city which he represents he over stepped the limits and there was noth- ing done or said by the umpire in the game in question which would in any way have warranted him in his ac- tions He also promises that in case he is reinstated he will never again lay hands on an umpire or cause any trouble in the National league; but on the other hand will always uphold the dignity of the game by his best efforts on the field at all times in a peaceable and orderly manner.

New York, July 27.-BattIing Nel- son, former lightweight champion, who has been meeting numerous Second- raters in the northwest, has gradually worked himself into such excellent fighting trim that he has agreed to box any opponent the Twentieth Century A. c. may select. Nelson has accept ed the clubs terms for a bout in Sep tember and the clubs matchmaker nas been requested by K Q. Brown and Abe AttelI to pit them against the Dane.
 = Browns manager. Dan Morgan. de- clared yesterday that the little Dutch man would allow Nelson to weigh as much as 1855 pounds if the former champion could not make less, and nx- pressed the opinion that Brown would win very easily.
 Atte1l stated that he would relish a bout with Nelson if the latter would agree to weigh 133 at 3, even if ne would have to concede at least 12 pounds to the Battler.
 Meanwhile Jimmy Britt, Nelson's old rival, who hasn't taken part in a scrap for more than two years, Is redhot for another setto and has written to the clubs matchmaker that he will be ready to box Nelson in about eight weeks.
 Nelson has an eye to business. as usual. and he figures that by making a good showing with Britt Brown or Attell he will be able to remain here during a greater part of the winter, meeting all the first class lightweights. Nelson also thinks that W-olgast may

ELEMENT OF CHANGE
 IN BUYING PLAYERS.
Fancy Prices for Some Men Who Did
 Not Come Up to Expectations.

Buying minor league ball players is merely a gamble. In paying $22,50 for the release of Pitcher O'Toole ct the St. Paul club Barney Dreyfuss. the Pittsburg magnate, has hung up q record price that may not be equalled for many years. Assuming that Drey- fuss actually paid this amount, O'Toole has earned the distinction of being twice as valuable as any ball player whose services have been secured for cash, says the New York Sun.
 The New York club paid $11,000 for Rube Marquard several years ago, which was said to be the topnotch price until the Athletics bought Lefty Russell from the Baltimore club for $12,000.
 President Brush was believed to have paid s10,000 to St. Louis for Spike Shannon, and a similar amount to Cincinnati for Cy Seymour, prices that were made possible by the won derful prosperity of the national game brought about by the peace agreement between the rival major leagues.
 In the old days the Boston c1uo caused a sensation by handing s10,000 to the Chicago club for the famous Mike Kelly. and an equal sum year later for the peerless boxman, John Clarkson. Boston also put up $30,000 for the old Detroit stars, Brothers, Richardson Bennett and Gandel
 
 ever were the only magnates wEo could afford to pay such prices for bail players. as the other National league clubs did not compare with the Hub club In point of wealth The players secured in this manner by Boston were all seasoned veterans of known quail ty and they proved good investments, for they helped to make a winning team in the Hub. But it was not until Brush bought Marquard that the prac- tice of paying big money for minor league material began.
 Marquard was a failure until this season, and Russell has not come I'D to expectations with the Athletics. Whether O'Toole can deliver the goods or not remains to be seen. As rule, minor league investments do not pan out, a fact that can be proved by Owners Comiskey of the White Sox, Taylor of the Red SoX, Hermann of the Cincinnatis Ebbets of Brooklyn and others who have bought untried ma terial with lavishness. only to find that they have overplaYed themselves.
 In many instances players secured for almost nothing have shown the required caiiber. Pitcher Alexander of the Philadelphia Nationals is shin ing example. He was purchased rom Syracuse for s. 300, and today his re- lea SC could not be purchased for S25.- 900. Buying ball players therefore. is nothing more than a gamble, part1cu- larly in the cases of minor 1aaguerS. and chances would not be taken by the big club owners without the liberal patronage of the public.
 Winners mean large profits. and in the competition for talent the richest .nagnatas have placed no limit on their exnenditures Dreyfuss outbid the White Sox. Cardinals and other clubs in his desperate attempt to strengthen the faltering Pirates with the acouisi- ton of O'Toole. and as the Pittsburg magnate is a good judge of playing

RODGERS CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS
Believes Return to Graduate Coaching Will Put Yale Crews in Lead Again.

Capt. Radcliff Romeyne has issued call for the Yale oarsmen to report at New Haven on Sept. IS, when Jim Rodgers, the newly appointed head coach. will begin the task of develop ing the crews under the new policy of amateur and graduate coaching. It is tho first time in years that the cand1- dates have been called out so early in the fall, but both Captain Romaine and Rodgers feel that no time can be lost if results are to follow the some what radical change in the policy of Yala rowing.
 In speaking of his plans, MT. Rod gers said:
 We must begin afresh, and work hard, if results are to be obtained. All the promising candidates for the crews are to be lined up earlier than usual, so as to get good start on their rowing pra actice for the winter season indoors That is the reason for the early call before college opens. Our policy will be to have the graduate coaching system working smoothly by tha time most other colleges are be- ginning to take up the first prepara- tory practice.
 It is our purpose not only to de- velop rowing men at Yale for the crews, but also to develop men who, when they get through their days in the varsity boat, may be counted upon to become good teachers and impart
 
 crop of oarsmen. I have nothing other than the greatest respect for the pro- fessionaI coach, but it is part of my theory and that of other Yale men that the professional system does not go far enough. In fact, at Yale there is a tendency to adopt the gradud; e coaching idea in all branches of sport.
 In the coaching of Yale crews the assistance of Bob Cook is to be had for all the time he can possibly give. He will return to New Haven and en- deavor to impart to the crews the ia nous Bob Cook stroke. Now. let me say that there is no mystery in boat ing. It's just common sense ami teaching the men how to pull the greatest number of pounds to a stroke. That's all there is to it, all the say ings of the wizards to the contrary notwithstanding.
 The Bob Cook stroke is like most simple things efficacious when properly applied. It's a strong catch and horizontal pull, the blade leaving the water with a slow, easy recovery That is the sort of rowing that the graduate coaches for all If the old Yale captains and crew men will lend a hand intend to impart to the men who will in future sit in Yale shells.
 Altogether. it is my belief that the plan will establish Yale in the strong est position she has ever enjoyed in rowing. An unbroken line of develop ment will be established, and with all of Yale's old oarsmen cooperating and advising tfle crew is bound to again send the blue floating to the fore"
