"WEDNESDAY in this part of Mich
igan will 90 down in history as one OF
the worst storm days ever known ex-
cept possibly the cold New Years OF
over forty years ago, the wind blew a
gale from the eastern quarter all day
and the snow was piled up in some
places in ten feet drifts, roads in many
rural districts were impossible Thurs
day morning, and train service on the
rail roads so far as schedule time was
concerned was entirely lost, many
trains being cancelled and people who
were intending TO make Washington
birthday visits were much disappolnt'
ed. 1t took more than two hours foT

was held short time ago In Chicago.
and the meeting was marked by inter
ested discussion of the technical
phases OF gardening.
This association was formed In 1907
with seventeen members. II has since
held four conventions, and the mem
bership has Increased to 160, repre-
senting thirty-fve roads. This prog
ress is entirely due TO the efforts OF
individual employees who are anxious
to see the practice of horticulture on
railway lands gain the recognition
which II deserves.
Although several roads have main
tanned departments for carrying ON
such work, the gardeners In charge
have in the main been denied eneour-
agement by railway managers In en-
larging the field OF their woyk and In
introducing II on new roads. says the
Railway Age Gazette. An eIpendi-
ture made for planting flowers OF sod
ding cut may not result In as def
mite an increase In gross earnings as
a similar expenditure for operating q
freight train.
However. the appearance OF well
kept parks and flower beds at stations,
of neatly sodded banks In deep cuts
and of fresh flowers on dining car ia
bles are very effective in adding TO the
pleasure and comfort of travellers, and
any such effort of a railway manager
to please his patrons will win for bis
road many friends who not only will
travel that way more often In the fu-
ture but will also influence their
friends to go with them. Such body
of friendly patrons is also OF great
value to the road In preventing radi-
cal and Ill advised legislation.
The roads which have practiced
gardening have also found that the
products Of the gardeners work have
q good influence on employees In maxi
ing them more contented and innu-
encing them to be more careful In
their work, which usually means that
they are saving the company money.
The sodding Of cuts has the further
argument in its favor that It prevents
washing, thereby reducing mainten-
apce costs, and the maintaining OF
station parks can be Justified on the
ground that without proper surround
inss the value OF q we'll designed and
costly station Is considerably depre-
ciated
The fact that some Of the roads
which first adopted gardening are new
the most ardent advocates OF the sys-
TEN Is the best proof OF the value OF
the investment.

HEAVY FOREIGN SELLING
Precipitated by Late Developments in
 Balkan Situation.

New York, Oct. 4.-Europe was again the foremost factor in today's stock market. Latest developments in the Balkan situation precipitated heavy selling of our securities at leading for eign centers, much of which had to be taken here. Foreign selling did not materialize extensively until after the close of European exchanges. London's closing quotations for our stocks were highly encouraging, with gains of a point or more in Atchison, Canadian Pacific and St. Paul. These were all duplicated here, the first hours trad ing being on an extensive scale, but local selling for profits and the short account soon arrested the rise.
 Later, when the offerings from abroad were sent in, the entire market began to sag, and before the close nothing was left of the early rise ex- cept in few instances. The closing was active and heavy. with fitful ral- lies from the low level. Money con d1tions were favOrabl to the market Not only did call and money rates re- lax, but our bankers cancelled a large part of the gold engaged in London during the week.
 The bond market moved with stocks, showing initial firmness and later irregularity. Total sales, par value. s2,5S0, 900.

NO "JokEs" WITH INGRAM.
Giants Manager Knows Ball Player
 When He Sees One.

Every now and then somebody bids young ball players cheer up by saying that some of the more prominent play CTS of the big leagues were once con- sidered as jokes" It may be true that they were considered as Jokes" by some who are not over conversant with the qualifications which go with a good ball player, but they were not considered as Jokes" by a manager who knew the ball player in the rough. Therein lies the difference between the callow critic and the experienced man. ager. Meyers, Marquard, Zimmer- man and Merlde were regarded as jokes when they first broke in," says a writer
 Perhaps so by the minimizing. In the case of three of the men mentioned there was one person who never re- garded them as jokes. His name is McGraw. Merkle was the first of the three to join the Giants. One day Mc- Graw told the writer, and it was only a few days after Merlzle had joined the team, that he had one of the com ing first basemen of baseball tucked under his wing, ready to take the place of McGann when Big Dan' fail ed. There were some who failed to see underlying the crudeness which Meyers exhibited when he first joined the Gi- ants he was better every time that
 he stepped behind the plate.
 The New York manager was asked if he would trade Marquard. Presumably some other manager was trying to test him and see if he could not obtain the left handler. McGraw spoge about it one afternoon in conversation. "So- and-So," said he. T think he has been trying me out to see if he can get hold of Marquard. None of them will get him. He has the essentials for first class pitcher, and some morning he will wake up and find it out. If can get two or three victories under his belt he is made. He'll stay with me until he proves that he is as goood as his physical qualifications call for or he will quit gray haired. He is nat ural ftIlnand pitcher of great skill and I'm going to get him to believe it = These players are not jokes with the New York manager. They are mostly jokes with young men who know all about a ball player after he has made areputat1on-

WILL GIANTS STEAL
 ON RED SOx cATcHERS
Record of Boston Backstops Indicates
 the Negative.

The New York Giants, the National leagues entrants for the worlds series to be staged next week, have stolen more bases this year than any other team in the senior organization and their followers expect that when they get into their important battle with the Red Sox they will be able to pilfer quite a few sacks on Carrigan apd his associates on the Boston catching staff. The adherents of the Red Sox just as naturally figure that Carrigan, Cady ct al. will be able to keep McGraw's band of speedy athletes from running wild on the paths.
 Time will tell which set of fans is right The figures show that when the Boston and New York clubs played a post season series in 1909, the New Workers fiIched II hassocks in five games and the Boston catchers threw out four men. Bill Carrigan caught who Tagged the four McGrawites, Pat Donohue not making a throw that stopped anyone.
 In the American league this year the Speed Boys opponents have not been stealing with great frequency on Car rigan, Cady, Nunamaker and Thomas In the first five months of the season the Bostonians' adversaries pilfered 157 bases, Chicago getting 30, Washington 24, Philadelphia 23, New York 22, De- troit q, St. Louis 20 and Cleveland IT, While the Speed Boys rivals were &C., quiring this number of larcenies, 105 more or less fleet pastimers were be- ing killed off in endeavoring to steal. ] Thus Carrigan, Cady and the other two receivers have thrown out two of every

 Babe, by winning the sixth heat of the 207 pace In 2.04 1-4, took the rec ord for the fastest sixth heat ever contested, and the race itself is a rec ord one for six heats. The winner got to the front in the last few lengths. Ty Cobb made a strong bid.
 Helen Stiles, unsteady in the first two heats of the POT trot. began win ming in the third mile. All alone she trotted the fifth and final heat in 2.06 1-4. taking half a second off the worlds time for 8 fifth heat. Pickels was allowed to brush home in the third heat of the 2.11 pace. which she won without trouble and took a new record of 2.03 1-4. This mare is named to start next week at Lexington against Braden Direct in the Tennes- see stake. Joe Patchen IL, also eligi- ble for the event, was shipped today to Springfield, H., and will not ap- pear at Lexington.
 Minor Heir in his trial, paced the first half in minute flat.
