URGE SICKNESS INSURANCE
Friends Of Workmen's Compens alton
Law to Ask Action by Wiscon-
sin Legislature.

Madison.-Now that workers in
Wisconsin are insured against loss
by accident, the state may go a step
farther and provide sickness insur-
ance, say friends of the workmen' S
ompensation law. Such a measure
will receive serious consideration be-
fore the next regular session of the
legislature opens. 1t is argued that
SO far as it incapacitates one from
earning a livelihood, sickness is in
the same category with accidents,
and that sickness insurance is rea-
sonable and elsewhere has proven
feasible and popular, especially in
Germany.

AirIie .MontviIIe Controversy.

Montville, Conn, July 2S, 1912. Editor Norwich Bulletin:
 Dear Sir: The Airlie team of Han over did not receive such severe treat ment as stated in today's Bulletin in the game at Montville last Saturday. Hanover likes to kick as well or better than the average. Two decisions that could have been called either way went against them Saturday and they howl ed so, threatened to quit, etc, that save gave them their way and let them put in one of their rooters as the Hsole umpire All went O. k. until the eighth inning, when with none out and Montville runners on second and third local batter sent a slow roller tow ards first which the Airlie pitcher tried to field and fumbled. Both our run ners scored and batter reached first safely. To everyone's surprise, the Hanover ump called the hit foul. That was the worst decision of the game, as the hit was unquestionably fair, and on the strength of the play on both sides would have decided the game, as we were leading all the way. l took the privilege Hanover had previously exercised of canning the arbitrator" Airlie's pitcher was being hit harder each inning and the team realized they couldn't win on the merits of play, SC refused to play, and several left for tho clubhouse, After 15 minutes wait Hanover refused te continue Mont vile was ready to resume play all ths time, thus proving coneiusiveiy that Remover and not dontville were the quitters.
 Yours respectfully,

FURTHER REACTION.
Forecasts of Steel Trust Report Create
 Pessmstic Feeling.

New York July 23.-F'urther reac- ton was observed in the movement of stocks today. Prices showed an irreg- ular trend at the outset, but actual heaviness was not manifested until quite late in the session, when many of the leaders were materially under the preceding days close.
 The foremost factor today was the feeling of pessimism caused by pub lished forecasts of the Stanley com mittee's report on the United States Steel corporation. Some of the rec concentrations of the committee are more complete than was expected as result of which Wall street looks for a continuance of the agitation against o-called trusts"
 Steel was again the most active of the speculative issues and the special target of bear attack, although it in creased more than some other stocks in the same degree. Pressure against Reading and Union Pacific was per- sistent but the shorts seemed to lack courage to carry their advantage very far. About the earliest stocks to dis play strength were those of the cleo trical companies, General Electric ad- vancing to its best figure in some years on circumstantial reports of an ap- preaching extra stock dividend. Cen tral Leather and American Hide and Leather submitted financial state ments, the latter company reporting marked decrease for the last quarter, but in neither case did the securities of these companies make appreciable response
 Money on time worked towards greater ease, but chiefly in the shorter maturities. Local banks report Q mod crate loss of cash to the sub treasury thus far this week, but the dullness of the stock market is calculated to fur ther reduce loans,
 No change from the recent steady but dull bond market was shown to- day Total sales, par value, aggregat ed $1, 445, 00o
 United States government bonds were unchanged.

Foreman, shortstop of the Kankakee club of the Illinois Missouri league, executed an unassisted triple play in a recent game between Champaign and Kankakee. The play was executed in the first inning. Sullivan and Elem ming of Champaign hit safely, and were on the first and second sacks when Lane drove a liner between sec ond and short. The diamond was un- usually heavy, and in a slipping and sliding manner Foreman made a lunge for the ball, grabbing it with one hand about one foot off the ground. Both Sullivan and Flemming, thinking 1t 8 safe hit, dashed forward, with Fore man, ball in hand. stepping on second, thereby putting Sullivan out, and, con- ttnuing. touched out the astonished Flenming at a point half way between first and second

sosroN's FINE SHOWING.
Due Jointly to Jake StshI and ex-
 Manager Patsy Donovan,

The remarkably fine showing of the Boston Red Sox, with practically the same men that were under contract to the club last season, has been a big surprise to the baseball public. While Manager Jake Stahl must be given due credit for the excellent position that the club holds in the race at the pres ent time, We must give ex-Manager Patsy Donovan due credit for the fine work that he got out of the team last season. As Hugh Bradley broke his leg at Los Angeles during the spring practice, the club was without a reg ular first baseman until late August, when Bradley returned to the team, and while not in the best shape, the Red Sox began winning. scoring more victories in the last month of the sea son than any other American league club. The additions to the club this year have been Jake Stahl, who has divided the work at first with Hugh Bradley; Catchers Cady, Thomas and Hugh Bediant
 Every member of the club was se- lected by John l. Taylor and all but q&Ay and Stahl were members of the Red Sox troupe that trained in Call fornia last season, says an exchange.
 At one time John l. Taylor had R ball players under his control paid big money for scouts to travel all over the country and paid big prices for the men, many of whom turned out gold bricks. The only Red veteran on the team Is Manager Jake Stahl, with Bill Csrrigan and Charley Wagner the vet ersrfs of the club, and with Iris Speak, CT, the motive power that gives life to the fighting machine. Last year both Carrigan and Wagner were out of the team for several months and their loss was felt keenly. This Boston team Is made up of players who never talk of championships but feel absolutely con- fident of holding their own with all corners, and never brood over defeat, The team is by all odds the best long hitting team in the American league, in this respect having the same ad- vantage as the New York Giants,
 The players receive no curtain lec- lures before the games, nor do they have any particular line of work map ped out when they face their oppo nents. They possess offhand baseball instinct, while pulling together and keeping in good physical condition.
