NEW YORK, June 9.-Stocks were dull again today. The government crop report was the only event to create d factor of more than passing importance. On account of the steel hearings in the dissolution suit of the government anu the also "un- filled tonnage report which disclos- ed an increase of S6.00O tons. trading in steel shares was dull and general trading was without significance The early movement was uncertain and far from active. Sugar shares rose two points
 Later the market fell into q state of coma until it became known that the United States court had adjourn ed without ordering a decision in the anthracite coal cases. This, with estimates contained in the crop re- port caused a hardness among coal CTS and some of the grangers notably St Paul, which fell within d fraction of it's low record. There were few rallies in the late dealings but the undertone at the close was irregu- lar. Bonds were dull; total sales par value $1,S48,OOO

EXCELLENT LECTURE COURSE

Some few minutes previous to his
departure last week, Professor
Daggy, formerly of the University of
Washington and now travelling man
ager of the Western Lyceum, signed
up a contract for next years lecture
course at the College. The course for
next year is far superior and more
extensive than any that has been at
tempted in former years. 1t was only
after careful consideration that this
selection was made which involves
some hundreds of dollars more than
is usually figured on. However, the
management has considerable faith
in the support of the College com
munity and, judging from the houses
the course has drawn this season,
there is excellent basis for such faith
The one fact that the famous Ben
Greek players are on the program for
the coming season places the course
far in advance of anything previous.

that part where gatesmen can be sta
toned to advantage and, all in all,
the grounds will be equipped In a
quiet up-to-date manner.
To make the improvements neces-

some assistance will be needed and
the plan pursued for raising funds
last year will be followed this year,
viz, small contribution from many
rather than large sums from a few.
Despite the best efforts of the man
agement last year to give Pullman a
winning team, many handicaps were
encountered because it seemed i'm
possible to put the same team in any
two games This feature also made
consistent practice impossible, yet
with these difficulties to overcome,
Pullman finished but one-half game

assured that no such difficulties are
to be encountered this season be-
cause we have a full personnel for the

Pullman VIII Make Other Towns of
Inland baseball League Hustle
This Year

But three weeks more and the GER
tain announcement that spring is
with us will be heard in the umpire s
play Ball. On April Ia the cur
tain will rise on the first act of the
Inland league race, and in short the
seasons outlook is the brightest Pull
man ever experienced. Though the
weather conditions have been any
thing but suggestive of baseball, fans
are becoming impatient for the open
ing game.
Late developments in the leagues
affairs indicate that Rosalia will not
retain her franchise, although it is
not definitely settled at this date.
However. this does not in any way af-
feet the status of the league, as both

Rosalias franchise. 1t may, 10 a
slight extent, require a modification
of the schedule and that change
would probably be TO the advantage
of the three other towns. Oakesdale
and Moscow being nearer.
Plans are outlined for improve
ments on the city park grounds to
be put into effect as soon as the
weather permits, and with these i'm
proyements Pullman will have a base
ball park second to none in the cir
cult. The grounds are to be enlarged
so that the heretofore short left field
will be of proper size, no longer
bringing grief to the player who feels
that he is entitled to three bases or a
homerun. but is compelled to be sat
isfied with two bases because of the
