 At Whittington Park Fred Clarke again set a fast hitting pace for his party of willow weilders. with three to his credit, but that did not get away in front. for the Yannigans were hitting the ball too. Bisland, with four. Flynn, with three. and Neihoff. with three. overbalanced the hitting honors in favor of the Yanni- gans
 At the Majestic Park it might net have been altogether the hitting. fer tae regulars were bit off in their .fle'ding. the six errors credited to them all proving costly and contribut- ing largely to the score for the Colts.

 New crop positions were relatively easier owing probably to reports of rains from the southwest. Private cables from Liverpool attributed tha general advance there to expectations s of bullixh ginning figures and after the publication of the census report there was a moderate reaction,
 A private cable received here late in the day said that the English trafe quite generally construed the ceus IS figures as indicating commercial crop of i2,250,ooo bales.
 Locally there was some difference of opinion as to the commercial crop indicated by the ginnings figures but perhaps the most general tendency was to add between 100000 and 200. 900 bales to the report iE calculating

 The contraction of national bank circulation is reflected in deposits of lawful money in tae treasury to retire the bank currency
 The banks are about $6000.0 900 ahead of the treasury in the dedemD- tions and treasury officials believe that much of the national bank cir culation now being retired will not be seen again until the crop moving season in the fall
