Small Run of Hogs
only 46 head of hogs arrived on
the lacol market today and these. sold
at $500. Were they of better quail
ity the market would have again
touched s715, the recent top.
With the market elsewhere again
showing an improvement and with
packers inclined to purchase liber-
ally at the advance it looks as If the
Improvement in the swine trade price
is permanent for the present season.
At South Omaha today there was
steady tone in the hog trade with
tops 5 cents higher at $6.35. This
means $7.45. to land at Portland or
other Pacific northwest centers.
At Chicago the hog trade was steady
with no change in price.
Today's showing of 46 hogs in the
yards compares with S14 last Tues
dav and 1897 two weeks ago. \ year
ago today the hog trade was steady
with no change in prices.

others who never cause q umpus, no
matter if they believe the official has
given them the worst of it in a close
decision. And it is the stars who near
ly always abide by the umpire's de-
cisions without a murmur.
why Hal Chase never made a kick
in his Life" Egan told me. One day
l was working on the bases in New
York and called Chase out on a very
close decision. That was hair line
decision, Hal, I remarked. Well, I
thought l had it beaten, Mr.. Egan,' re-
piled Chase, but you could tell better
than I could
That's all he had to say Why I
know of fifty players who would have
been ready to scalp me had they been
in Chase's place.
While I don't believe there IS an
umpire in the American League who
would give a wrong decision with in
tention, it's a cinch a fellow of the
Chase type is not going to get any the
worst of it from an official.
"Christy Matthewson is another
great player to work behind. An UNI
pire often makes a mistake on balls
and strikes, but Matty never makes a
beef.
Ira Thomas, the Athletics backstop,
is always pleading with the umpire,
and is really funny at times as he
begs for strike. Charley Street, Of
Washington, is just the opposite, and
he is continually grabbing when e
pitches if he isn't given a shade on
close ones. But both are grand fell
lows and their heart is in their work. -
willie Keller was an ideal fellow
broke in Connolly. Whenever he
made kick you could bet he WIS
pretty near right. But Keller real
lied he had nothing to gain by bait
ing.
"Ty Cobb is another good man for
the umpires While he may look to
be a scrappy player, he seldom kicks
at a decision Cy Young, Larry Lajoie
and many of the other great perform
ers are the same.

FARNSWORTH WRITES
ABOUT THE UMPIRES

While travelling with Yankees On
their first Western trip this spring l
met Umpires Tommy Connolly and
hour and half for the diamond war
tent indicator holders in the American
League, and for that matter in the
country. It is seldom His Jumps" Will
talk about his troubles, but Connolly
and Egan gave me lot of interesting
dope concerning the jobs and players
in general.
The life of an umpire is a tough one
believe me Many fan has sat NJ
in the stand and wished he could Sc
cure such a position. They figured il
pretty soft to ride around the country
Witnessing all the great diamond bat
ties But if they only half realized the
hardships connected with the position
they would never have another long
ing for the job.
While a baseball team is securing
the breaks" and winning, the players
find the going smooth, but when that
antiquated lady, Dame Fortune, is
'strutting around with the opposition
the players life is far from being rosy
AID it is just the same with the UNI
pire.
For days he may not be called on to
make any close decision and he and
the players get along like brothers.
But for weeks ne oficiates in battles
where for inning after inning, he has
to decide eyelash plays. The players
of both teams continually pounce III
him and argue with him, the home
fans roast him to a brown 1t is then
that the job gets on his nerves and
he begins to long for home and the
farm
The umpire is practically exiled
too. He cannot mix with the players
after the game and go out and have
an evening of sport. If he wants to
go to a theatre he must travel by his
lonesome. While he may have many
personal friends on the teams, it
would never do for him to be seen
with a ball tosser The fans would
say that he was fayoring the player
if he did.
Connolly and young Mullen, who is
breaking in this year in the American
League-and let me add he appears to
have the markings of a corking good
.Offcial-were on the same train with
the Yankees on the return trip of the
New Workers from Washington last
month. When their appetites drove
them to the dining car they found the
players occupied nearly every seat
Connolly informed his young protega
that it would never do to be seen eat
ing with players, so they strolled to
their chairs and waited at least an
hour and half for the diamond VIZ
riors to fill their bread baskets.
There are certain players who make
all kinds of trouble for umpires, and

Trenton, n. J.. Sept. "A real live
four-legged bull which was washed
away from its moorings on farm some
where near Trenton was caught to-day
in Assanpink Creek at the Warren

journey went over the big dam at the
plant Of the Empire Rubber Company
and under the bridge at the Clinton
street station. where it must have been
completely under water for several min

bull struggling in the water near the

against the motion.

under the same conditions said O'Neill.
Again Dixon rose TO the occasion and
cast his vote against the continuance Of
the inquiry.
