REACTION IN MARKET.
Depression of Prices, U. S. Steel Drop
 ping Two Points.

New York, Nov. s.-After more than l a week of advancing prices, the stock l market today fell back. Pressure against the speculative was persistent l and effective. Prices were depressed early in the day and the market
 seemed to be without the power to 1 rally. Toward the close the pressure
 became more pronounced Reading and ] United States Steel fell more than two points, and Union Pacific and other
 active stocks nearly as much. lew inactive industrials developed pro- nounced strength, without affecting | the general market.
 l The decision of the court in regard ] to the American Tobacco plan was not made known until after the close ! of the market. During the day the preferred stock was heavy although the common stock advanced 10 points just before the close on the ''curb- The decision showed that Wall streets expectations had been largely ful- filled. The recent advance of the market had been attributed largely to buying based upon expectations of ia
 ccmpanys plan. Approval of this plan,
 i- believed, would furnish some
 indications as to the standards to
 which corporations might be expected
 to comply.
 The action of the market today was
 regarded as natural in view of the
 recent extensive rise The advance resulted in a large reduction of the
 
 ening of the technical position of the market. It was evident also that the rise had not been effective in encour aging public participation in the mar ket to any large degree. Bull operators found the drift of the market against them, with the demand for the stan dard issues at the higher prices con- siderabiy reduced. The course of the market led to a renewal of short sell ing, and the heavy selling toward the end of the day apparently was largely in the nature of bear drive
 The results of yesterdays balloting played apparently no part in today's market The market was largely one of apecialties. National Biscuit rose more than six points on reports of 8 probable increase in the dividend rate. Brooklyn Union Gas gained four and oEe-ha1f and large advances were 1 made by a number of other inactive l issues including Federal Mining, Phil 1 adelphia company and American Can | preferred. Delaware, Lackawanna and | of the 35 per cent. extra | stock dividend. This action, however l had been largely discounted the stock l having risen 55 points in the last few | weeks.
 The copper stocks sold off with the | general market. although the monthly | report of the copper producers was | favorable. Forecasts of l the report had pointed to an increase | of stocks on hand, whereas there was 8 decrease of nearly 6,000.0bO pounds Production was smaller than had been and gains were reported in both the domestic and export trade
 The bond market held firm in the early trading, but later developed a tendency in places. Total States three advanced one eighth on call.

PRESENTED BAsEBALLs

Commissioner Gunshansn Will Present
 Them as Prizes at Fair.

John F. Gunshanan of the state tuberculosis commission, who was a visitor here on Tuesday, persevered in his efforts to see his old baseball friend, Captain Danny Mruphy, and was suc- cessful this time in locating him. On a previous visit to this city he had called at Danny's home, but found him out hunting. Upon his return to Hart ford told baseball men of the Times that he had seen the newly elected captain and hard hitting outflelder of the Champions, and had brought back two souvenirs that were gazed on with envious eyes by Hartford fans oo whom MT Gunshanan showed them The sou venirs are two American league balls, one of which was used in the last game of the worlds series, when the Giants were reunited by score of 13 to 2. The ball bears the inscription written by Murphy: Used in the Worlds Series. Dan Murphy" The other souvenir Is a new ball.

THORP OF CARLISLE
 GREAT INDIAN ATHLETE
No Field of Activity in Which He Is
 Not a Star.

Just at present the football annals of 1911 are ringing with the fame of Thorpe of Carlisle, who promises to become one of the greatest athletes his race has ever known. He is James Thorp, who came to Carlisle from Ok 1aboina in 1908, with no knowledge whatever of athletics.
 Thorp is a baseball pitcher of great talent and also covers any of the sacks or outfield well. He can put the 16-pound snot 43 feet, and broad jumps p feet 10 inches. He can run 100 yards in 10 seconds, high jump six feet and do the high hurdles in 15 4-5 seconds. He is a star basketball play CT, good rifle shot, and an expert at lacrosse, tennis, handball and hockey. As football halfback, he is probably seen at his best.
 Thorp, who is only 22 years old, is six feet tall and weighs IFS pounds. He gave little promise of his wonder full talents until his second year when in dual meet against Syracuse uni he won the high jump, the the high and low hurdles and took second place in the hammer throw.

Monty Got Two Falls On Maxwell
Norwich Lightweight Wrestler Dcwned the Westerly Man in Minutes and Minutes-PreIim Was a Draw Baltic Wrestling Card.

Wednesday night in the Dime thea ater at Baltic, as scheduled, Jack Monty of Norwich and Connie Maxwell of v Westerly met on the mat for a finish bout, best two out of three falls. The bout started in a way promising plenty of excitement but after the first few minutes of wrest- ling it was easy to see that the lit tie Br1t1Sher was no match for Monty. After sizing his man up, Monty went after him and secured the first fall in minutes 20 seconds. After 5 minutes rest they went at it again and in minutes of fast wrestling Monty took the second fall.
 In the preliminary bout Bernard Smith of Baltic and Lightning Null doom of Occum wrestled for 10 min utes to a draw, the bout being called by the referee after the crowd be- came so enthusiastic they could not be kept in their seats.
 Monty wishes to state that he would like to meet any man weighing in at 133 ringside for a finish bout, provid- ed a side bet-can be furnished.

PHILADELPHIANs PLEASED.
Quaker City Fans Think Danny Mur- phy Will Make a Successful Leader for the Athletics.

Philadelphians are much pleased over the appointment of Dan Murphy as captain of the Athletics. Part of this pleased feeling is due to the fact that the outfelder is native of the Quaker City. New York is pleased, too, because, like Harry Davis, Danny was once a member of the New York Giants. Connecticut is pleased, also, for Murphy, unlike his predecessor, once played in Norwich and was the same terror then to Connecticut league ritchers that he has been to big league fingers in recent years. So much for Danny
 Harry Davis is confident that his successor will make good. Murphy is entirely different from Davis and Con nie Mack, both of whom are quiet and easy going The new field leader of the worlds chan pions is a strict dis ciplinarian without being a bully. He believes in ruling. This fact is well known to his mates and they like him. He has always been popular with the other players and they have always listened to his advice, says an ex- change.

BASEBALL VALUES.
Big Salaries for Stars With Tendency to Even Larger Amounts-lncreas- ina Investments in the Game.

What will a star baseball player be worth 25 years from now? How much money will then be invested in the pro- duction of our national game, if the sport develops as rapidly in the next quarter of a century as it has fin the last? Will the fans ever reach the linn 1t on paying for their favorite diver sion? Stages of other nations already are beginning to view with alarm" the figures representing our expendi- lures for baseball. They believe we arc baseball mad, says an exchange. Our love for baseball appers to them unlike tthe drink or drug habit. What will it lead to f1nally?' they ask.
 Incomes of s2o,ooo to $25.ooo.
 It is beI.exsd t t,s that that h,n John Mercy rives not less than s2O,0OO annually From baseball. This includes h's sal ary and a share of the profits. Frank Leroy Chance, veteran first baseman and peerless leader Of Chicago Cubs, probably gets $2O,000 a year.
 Fred Clarke, outfelder and manager of the Pirates, makes sz0,00O a year from baseball, if we may believe re- ports. Roger Bresnahan recently re- newed his contract as manager of the Cardinals at a salary estimated at s15, ,000 a year. The rewards of play ing good baseball. whether one is a manager or not. are greater, perhaps.

Following Wagner on the ''noncommfssioned" salary list is Tyrus Cobb of Detroit For devoting himself to baseball a few months in each year he gets, $9,000 a salary that does not seem excessive when it is known that Cobb is the greatest base ball player fin the world and that he is only 24 years old.
 Hal Chase. manager and first base man for the New York Yankees, gets SS,0O0 year. PittSburg pays $8,o00 year to Tommy Leach, an outf1elder Rhoderick J. Wallace gets s7,5OO a year as manager and shortstop for the Browns. Russell Ford, a pitcher for the Yankees. receives $5.000 for a sea- sons work.
