WOMEN FORCE MEAT
DOWN FOUR CENTS
Campaign On Egg Market Has
Effect in Philadelphia
-. Market

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 2s.-The
crusade OF the Housekeepers' league,
here, which lowered the price of eggs,
has had its effect upon meats, which
are selling today at average OF from
two to four cents a pound below the
prices which prevailed at the time
the campaign was inaugurated. A
further drop is expected.
With the price of eggs at a high
figure. the packers could have main
tanned the high prices of meats, but
the campaign by Philadelphia house
wives has had the effect Of making
the market lopsided. More than
double the amount OF eggs has been
consumed. and meat sales have fallen
of accordingly. The Housekeepers'
league is considering cutting two
cents a dozen of their present price
for eggs, now 22 cents.

NO RELIEF FOR TWIRLERS

There will be no relief for George
Stovall's young pitchers when their
opponents get to them. No kind hand
will wave to the outfleld and bring
in a rescuer. The unfortunate Twill
ers will have to fight their way out.
A game more lost means nothing
to the Browns. As they stand now.
they are hopeless. and no one realizes
this better than the new manager.
What he wants now is exact informa-
ton as to what he has on hand In
the way of youngsters. Every old
timer and every recruit that can't
stand the gait will be welded out.
Stovall has an entirely different
proposition on his hands than he had
in Cleveland last year. With the Maps
the material was there, waiting to be
used properly. st. Louis has been
dry-rotting. There Is good stuff in
the Browns lineup, but 1t is not good
enough. Stovall must rebuild, and he
has started with the twirlers.
He doesn't want his veterans. And
he wants only those recruits that can
stand the gruelling contest of stand
ing up and being hammered and still
come back strong.

INTERNATIONAL POLO
MATCHES ARE ASSURED

BOSTON, June 24.-Promise of real
international polo at Narragansett
Pier this year Is contained in the in
vitation extended by the Point Jul
dith Polo Club TO the Argentine team,
which has had a victorious career in
the tournaments in England. It is
anticipated that the South Ameri-
can team will accept and take part
in the tourney, which includes the
open championships between July 20
and August "a.
The Argentine team is made up of
two Irlshmen and two Englishmen,
who all have business interests In
the Argentine. Their South Ameri-
can ponies are branded and rough
looking, but rare gallopers and very
handy. Aided by the handicap odds,
the Argentine team won the Whitney
cup tournament at birmingham, and
created a sensation by their quick
ness and hard hitting.

WOODHULLS
LOSE TO THE ATHLETICS

Obinger was forced over when Hughes
gave Donovan four bad ones.
1t was practically one. two, three
for both mines in the early ROUNDS.
Harry Kurfess started the second for
the Athletics with a hit and was on
second with one down. but was left
astray, as the next two batters were
easy infield outs. Lang opened the
sixth with a hit and stole second, but
again Clifford got out of a hole by
tanning Beebe, while Egler popped
to the outfield and Lang was caught
between the sacks. In the event.
Menchner reached second on Ohm
gers error. After Kastner had st"'c's
out Jack Kurfess was passed but Cliff
ford's wonderful control nabled hlln
to fan Harry Kurfess and made
Langheld pop an easy foul fly.
Menchne's fielding around second
featured the game. He had six hard
chances, which he gobbled perfectly.

on all the speed that he had, and on
the back stretch was making good
gains. Grenda, however, had the
a winner by about a half wheels
length.
Other Races.
The one-mile open professional fur
nished a grand race, and was won by
Jumbo Wells, with John Bedell
taking second money. Menus Bedell,
who was tackled on to John, had no
difficulty in getting third. Floyd
Krebs in this event gave Cavanagh
u. very rough ride, putting Cavanagh
out of the running. He was fined SO
for his act. John Bedell also made
Carlo Messori and Tricky Comes do
some quick changing when he liter
ally forced them off the track. He
got away with his act and ven got
second money.
In the handicap the scratch men,
Cavanagh, Comes and John Bedell,
rode together, and soon with the as
sistance of the second bunch over
hauled the limit men. In a beautiful
sprint Wells beat out John Bedell.
In the motor-paced number Clarence
Carmen rode n steady race and re-
peatedly Tapped his opponents.
The miss and out ace for the anna
tours had a serious spill. in which
Harry Cordes and Henry Blocker had
to be carried to their dressing rooms.
In this number the last man across
the tape was put out of the running.
The race was won by Chester Smith,
with McDougall second. The handi-
cap affair at one-half mile was won
! by Fred Diver. The novice event went
to II. Jaeger, who rode a good race.

A sensational rally, marked by
which netted four runs. enabled the
crack Newark Athletic baseball
team to defeat the great Jamaica
Woodhulls, of Long Island, in n of
games witnessed at the big Walls
burg Park this season. The final
score favored the locals 8 to 2. 1t was
this wayi in the eighth: After Hughes
had been retired Lang hit safely to
left, Beebe was passed, and with two
on Egler clouted a neat one to left,
scoring Lang. Menchner stung the
pill to right for two bags and both
Beebe and Lang raced over. Kastner
got an infield hit, but was out steal
ing. Jack Kurfess reached first on a
safety to right. He tried for two
bases, but was out as Menchner tai
lied. Harry Kurfess then whitfield.
With the exception of this session
both mines played behind their re-
spective pitchers in almost perfect
style.
George Hughes, who toed the mound
for the locals, pitched an excellent
game, while his rival, Jack Clifford,
was equally as good in pinches, bar
ring that disastrous eighth round.
For eight innings the Woodhulls re-
NAMED on top by a 2 to | score.
The visitors were the first to dent
the home dish, making II lone" in the
very first inning. Wall got his base
on balls and was sacrificed to second
by Donovan. The former came over
when Joung's hit landed safely in
left. The Jamaicas made their count
read two" when they scored again In
the second. Obinger walked and went
all the way to third on Clifford's hard
wallop. and the latter a moment later
pilfered second. Wall was passed and

When George Bell STROBE into the
clubhouse at Wiedenmayer's Park
for the first time and was introduced
to his teammates. the Academy Cor
ners son of the soil shook hands with.
everybody and then delivered a deft
little speech, in which III set forth
that he would win a majority of his
games so long as the Tigers set up
as many as three runs behind him.
Some of the regulars, who did not
know Bell, gasped at such presump-
ton, because the regular machine had
: been manufacturing eight, nine and
ten runs daily, and still was being
beaten regularly.
That George knew whereof he spoke
was evidenced on the very first day
he pitched, because he shut out the
he~avy-hitting Baltimore Birds, a team
containing some of the heaviest slug
gers on the circuit. The Tigers gave
Bell seven runs and Big George was
happy.
In the next game they gave him
twice seven runs, making a total of
fourteen runs behind the big HEAVIER,
and George copied from Providence,
IA to 2. In his next start, however,
the machinery slipped and the Ben
gals could not make a run behind him
and were shut out. George allowed
the Bisons to get n run in the first
inning and that cost him the only de-
feat he has suffered in five starts.
He got revenge on the Herd three
days later, when the Tigers gave
George seven runs and he did not
have tn fnrNa hip1QolF of oil allowing
the Stallingsites to gather in three
tallies.
Yesterday the Tigers went just one
run above the required 8 that Bell
asked for, and Newark won, 4 to 8.
