FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
AN IRREGULAR TONE.
Market Heavy in Spots Despite opti
 mistic News.

New York, Oct. 7.-Although mone- tary conditions bespeak greater ease, and other developments, including the eastern European situation, seemed of more encouraging nature, todays stock market manifested an irregular tone for the greater part of the ses- sion, becoming heavy in spots before the close. Firmness was indicated in the opening prices, most of which were on a level with or above last weeks final figures, this being espe- cially true of the eoalers, St. Paul and a few specialties, but pressure direct ed largely against United States Steel and Union Pacific caused a general re- versal of quoted values. Hill issues were the principal exception to the downward tendency being assisted by unofficial estimates of September earn ings. The specialties prominent for their strength included National Lead and Harvester. All the Tobacco is- sues showed, declines, American To- bacco yielding five points.
 Trading was decidedly smaller in volume than at any recent date. Lon don was again seller here, but in moderate amount, the greater part of it's sales being for continental ac- count, chiefly Paris, that center being weak, in contrast to Berlin, where inn provement over last weeks unsettle- ment was shown. Private cables from London indicate that the forthcoming settlement will disclose a market in crease in the American account.
 Traffic conditions, as reported by middle west railroad officials, points to the heaviest tonnage in that section for some years. Receipts of grain at Chicago were under last weeks but much larger than in the correspond ing week last year. These conditions find direct reflection in the firrnness of the western money market. Local time rates were unchanged from last weeks, but offerings were less free probably as a result of last Saturdays bank statement.
 The bond market was featureless, except for it's easier tone. Total sales, par value. amounted to $1,S650O0

Baseball Experts About Even in Pick.
 ing Giants and Red Sox.

Local opinions on the results of the worlds series favor neither team. The expert pickers of winners are about the Red Sox, while some admit that there is little to pick between sAe two teams. Some of the opinions ex- pressed are as follows:
 John Kinney, day starter TOT the Con- necticut company. and one of the games most ardent fans, says the race is an even thing right through. "The clubs are evenly matched and the un- certainty of the game should keep the betting even"
 John J. C. Stone-Boston's int1eld is equal or better than the Giant infleld, and the outfield is quite as good as New York's. In the pitching staff the Sox have the advantage, and this will count. for the worlds series will be made up of pitchers battles. Joe Wood can pitch every other day, if necessary, while Marquard, the star of the Giant staff, is barely good for nine innings. I don't see why the Red Sox can't win.
 Manager McGraw of the state hos pital team-Ncthing to it, but the Gi- ants. l believe the pitching and field ing of the clubs will be about even, but New York will outbat the Sox. Boston is not as good as the Athletics were last year, when the latter team had a hard fight to win. while the Giants are. if anything, better than last year. The New York team has bunch of hard

 Frank Fagan-The Boston club has been playing great ball all the season, but when the time comes l don't be- lieve the youngsters will stand the gaff. The Giante' regulars are all tried veterans and have been through the strain of worlds series before. The Sox youngsters will fall down in the series and give the Giants the worlds championship.
 Captain Sullivan of rne-En stars says it is an even break. The Giants are now playing good ball and have team of tried veterans. Boston has played championship ball all season and has a fast, snappy aggregation. The break of luck will decide the series.
 c. V. PendIeton says the Giants are the boys to take the long end of the purse this year; that the Athletics had a hard fight and lot of luck to win last year, and that the Giants are now stronger than ever. New York will have no cinch. but should be able to win out. Though the Red Sox may be as good as the Athletics were last year, yet they have not behind them in Stahl the wisdom of Connie Mack.
 John Hart refuses to favor either team and says it is an even break. A seven game series would not surprise him, he says.
 Ed Price tnlnRs the Giants look good for the worlds champions. Last year, he says, New York lost by close margin, and this year they are better than ever.
 Among those who are taking in the opening game of the series today are Edward Redden, Octave Caron, J. B. Caron, Patrick Bray, Dennis Hayes, Thomas Norris, Jeremiah Lucy, James Moore, George Pratt. Andrew Hill and C. v. Pendleton.

 Fans Follow in Wake Of the Team.
 Boston, Oct. 7.-Within few hours of the departure today of the Red SoX for New York, where they will cross bats tomorrow with the Giants in the initial contest of the worlds series, hundreds of Boston and of New Eng land baseball enthusiasts followed i'll their wake. Starting in the late aft ernoon with the royal rooters," who went 300 strong in a special train, ac- companied by a band. the migration continued through the night. Even the accommodations of early morning trains were largely exhausted by the reservation of baseball enthusiasts. Most of them had reserved seat tickets for the New York game, but others went along with only a hope of get ting into the Polo grounds somehow to root for the Red Sox.
 The players made the trip practical ly in seclusion. They had a special car on the Knickerbocker Limited. in which, aside from themselves, were only the wives of Manager Stahl. Duff fy Lewis and Charlie Hall, and little Jerry McCarthy, the boy mascot. GOV ernor Foss was on the train and wish ed the boys luck The demonstration planned for the Red Sox departure miscarried, as the crowd assembled at the South station, while the players boarded the train at Back Bay.
 Wood May Twirl First Game.
 Although the outgoing rooters took with them enough enthusiasm to make New Workers feel sure tomorrow that the Red Sox have host of supporters there was still plenty left behind. Bos- ton and, it appeared, the greater part of New England. planned to forego business tomorrow and flock to the bulletin boards or tickers, to follow the progress of the game, which Red Sox supporters await with confidence. Confidence in the Red Sox gained strength from the general belief that Smokey Joe Wood will pitch for Boston in the opening game.
 Mayor Fitzgerald is imbued strong ly with the same feeling of Red Sox success. This is indicated in tele- grams exchanged between him and Mayor Gaynor of New York today, in which Mayor Fitzgerald is assured of a good seat at tomorrow's game.

May Be Unable to Play in the Games
 of Philadelphia Intercity Series.

Philadelphia, Oct. 7.-Jack Coombs, pitcher for the Philadelphia American league team, was knocked unconscious by a wild pitch of Earl Moore, pitcher for the National league team, in the sixth inning of the opening game for the Inter league championship of this city today at Shibe park. Ccombs was able to walk home after the game, but was badly shaken and may not be able to play in any of the remaining games of the series. Alexander. who pitched the first five innings for the Nationals, was hit hard by the Ameri- can leaguers in the fourth inning.
 Carroll Brown replaced Coombs and in the eighth inning walked two men and hit another. After Crabb, who replaced Brown in the box, had given one pass, Paskert and Dolan tripled and Magee singled, clinching the vic tory for the Nationals. Score hy inn ings: R. H. B. Americans 10 0 c 0 0 O-413 0

COUNTY HISTORICAL
SOCIETY Is PROPOSED

At the request of citizens interested
in the organization of a Umatilla
County Historical Society, which shall
be an auxiliary of the Oregon His
torical Society, the Pendleton Com
mercial Association requests all per-
sons interested to assemble at the AS
sociation rooms over the Pendleton
Drug Company's store on Saturday,
Jan. 6, 1912, at o'clock in the after
noon, that being the 100 anniversary
of the first known appearance of
white men upon the soil of what Is
now Umatilla county, the Astor over
land expedition under Wilson Price
Hunt. Valuable historical matter is
likely to be lost forever by the death
of the pioneers unless some organi-
cation is effected soon, and this an
niversary seems a proper time to act.
1t Is hoped that the County Pioneer
Association will be represented, as
well as the Women's Clubs and Com
mercial bodies of the county, together
with the teachers and public school
students interested in historical
studies. Arrangements are being
made for the presence of T.. C. Elliott,
one of the directors of the State His
torical Society, and historian of re-
search and accuracy, to be present
and deliver the address which he gave

the statement made by Senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska, today, speak
ing before the senate.
He said he firmly believed that the
arbitration treaties would permit an
alliance with England later which
would inevitably tangle the United
States in England's foreign policy and
her troubles. meaning Germany. He
opposes the treaties.
Senator Hitchcock quoted from the
speech of Sir Edward Grey, the Brit
ish foreign minister, in which Sir
Edward is quoted as saying that he
believed that the "arbitaration
treaty probably would lead England
and the United States to follow it with
an agreement to join each other, in
case either had a quarrel with an
other nation.
Hitchcock said it was easy to see
that Grey referred to Germany, when
he spoke and that England would
desire the United States to join her
against Germany. if Germany, would
refuse arbitration.
He said that even if the treaty did
not end in an alliance. that it would
inevitably promote controversies, en-
courage claims and cause diplomatic
arrangements, through which Ameri-
can interest would likely suffer.
