As matters stand the First boys feel
that the decision of the umpire was an
illegal one, and therefore should be over

rights, and unless the game Is given In
its favor the team will leave the league.

over the cotton region, but rains were

points down. At this point attention was
called to the long distance forecast
which predicted the appearance of a

of business, prices were point over Sat

The market was dull and featureless
from the middle of the morning on with
the trade waiting for new weather de-

by the selling out of scalping longs. At
