FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
EXTREME WEAKNE ESS,
Market Influenced by UnfavorabIe Crop News and Poor Railway Earnings.

New York, May 31.-Heaviness which later gave place to extreme weakness marked the movement of operations on the stock exchange today, To what extent the declines were due to bear attacks or other and more potent req sons is altogether conjectural, but fur ther unfavorable crop news, together with poor railway earnings doubtless entered into the general situation. Among the first issues to manifest pronounced weakness were those which comprise the Rock Island group, even
 the collateral bonds going lower on rumOrs that next interest payment might go by default. Pressure was
 greatest against the hard coal shares, which have a more or less intimate
 market relation to Rock Island. Read ing and Lehigh Valley were offered at recessions throughepIt the session and
 in the final hour dealings in these
 stocks overshadowed all else Read
 ing lost 3-S points on the day and
 Lehigh Valley 1-4.
 The market opened with some dis
 play of strength, Canadian Pacific al-
 most immediately recovering it's guar terly l-2 per cent dividend, while other high priced issues were up a point, The rise was soon effaced, but by noon receveries were general. The improvement was most noticeable in United States Steel, Amalgamated Copper, to the accompaniment of an- other rise in copper metal, American Smelling and Union Pacific
 In the afternoon the market relapsed into its habitual dullness until the
 final hour. when the unfavorable state ment of New York Central for April wit gave the short interest a lever for an other selling movement which sent prices down precipitately. The list
 seemed to have little or no support at the close. which bore the marks of liquidation, begotten. perhaps. of i'm paired margins, New York Central S net operating revenue for April de- creased by s90S, 900, Lackawanna' s de-

ocean to ocean Hlahway.

A touring car sent out by the Los Angeles Times is now forcing it's way east from that city in the interests of the proposed ocean to ocean highway. The results obtained will be of i'm mense interest, as well as big value, not only in pathfnding, but fully as much in ear and tire testing way.
 It would be hard to think of any more rigorous tryout for a car than a trip of this character There are not only the road-keepinE qualities to be considered, but the sand, rock and clay the climatic and weather conditions arc ot such wide variety that nothing but supren1sst material and construo- dhn could meet them successfully. Every condition of road, every kind of grade are bound to be encountered

BETWEEN CORNELL AND PENN
Intercollegiate Championship Decided Today Franklin Field-Beatty Breaks Shot Put Record With AZ Feet in Tryouts-Meyer Does B Feet 1O1z Inches in Broad Jump.

Philadelphia, May 31.-The tryouts
 on Franklin field today for the finals
 L. the intercollegiate track and field
 events tomorrow indicate that the
 team championship probably lies be-
 tween Cornell, last years winner, and qualified thirteen men, the greatest number of men in the eleven events in which trials were necessary. and Cornell qualified seven, Nbut the Itha- cans are strong in the branches of the sport in which they will run men to-
 morrow. Harvard showed up well, but not as strongly as was expected. Three of Pennsylvania's men are in the low hurdles and three in the high barriers. Cornell had three of her seven men in the half-mile run; Har- ward qualified nine men for the finals; Yale eight; Columbia eight; Dart mouth seven; Michigan seven: Prince ton six; Syracuse five; Brown and Wesleyan, two each: Amherst, Bow doin, Massachusetts Tech, Penn State and Rutgers, one each.
 One intercollegiate record, the shot put, was broken. R. L. Beatty of Co., IuInOld, Tn ms second LnfOW, placed the distance at 47 feet Is inch. The in tercollegiate record was 46 feet ' 1-S inches, made by J. J. Horner of Mich igan in 1911. Beatty also holds the collegiate record of IS feet 3-8 inches made last year.
 One of the surprises of the day was Pennsylvania's being shut out in the
 100 yards dash. She was expected to
 get one or two men through, but all O. them appeared in poor form. The fastest time in the four heats in the
 event was 10 2-5 against a strong
 wind.
 The best time in the quarter was made by Reidpath of Syracuse, who won his heat without being pushed, in
 49 4-5 seconds. Snyder of Cornell made the best time in the half-mile. one
 minute 57 seconds. Good time was al- so made in the 220 yards dash. Another notable performance in the field events was Meyers broad jump of 23 feet 10 1-2 inches The Penn sylvania man made this distance on his first and only leap. In the pole tyault five men qualified by clearing the bar at F feet 4 inches.

TT would not surprise students Of
baseball to see Jake StahI manage
\ his worlds champions from the
bench next year. In fact, his success
scr already has been decided upon,
says Arthur Irwin, scout of the New
York Highlanders. Irwin believes
that Stahl will break in Janvrin, the
former Boston high school player, as
his first baseman next season. jan
win is a youngster who can hit, and
he has plenty of nerve and natural
playing ability. The Red SOX have
kept a string on this youth for two
years, and Stahl figures he has had
enough seasoning to star in fast COM
pany. Irwin says StahPs legs both
cred him a great deal this season, and
thinks the trouble will compel him to
manage from the bench.
A plan to cut the players share Of
the receipts Of the worlds series
baseball games will be given serious
consideration by the national baseball
commission this winter. August Herr
mann, chairman Of the commission, is

one of the advocates of the scheme
which would limit each member of the
winning team to $1,000 and losers
would get $3.50. This money, accord
ing to Hermann, will be deducted from
60 percent of the first four games, the
balance to be distributed equally
among the players of the other Il
major league teams. Under such a
plan the worlds series would provide
a nice bonus for all the major league
players, even tail-enders, and it is be-
lieved, would put an end to squabbling
and possible scandal
The date for the much postponed
bout between Matt Wells lightweight
champion of England and Freddie
Welsh, the former champion, is now
scheduled for London, on November II.
Here's what John B. Foster says
about Bresnahan's dismissal: The
change which has been made in the

appear to have been diplomatic or
wise. There may be excellent reasons
for the deposition, which have not
been stated, but results in the last
