WAGNER's 18TH YEAR AS PLAYER Pirate Shortstop Has Been Member
 Of That Team f5 Out of the IS.

When John (Honus) Wagner. the star shortst0p of the Pirates, sent in his signed contract to play with the Buccaneers next season, it was the great Dutchman'S 18th year with the i Pittsburg team. and his 18th year in the service of Barney Dreyfuss. Wag- ner broke into the National league in 1897, with the Louisville club. which was owned by Dreyfuss. Wagner was procured from the Paterson (N. J.} club of the old Atlantic league which was managed by Edward B. Barrow. present executive of the International league. Wagner came to Pittsburg in 1900, when DIossfuss bought the Pitts burg fran chise.

By hitting about 300 last season Wagner established new major league record. having bat ted over 300 for IT seasons in success sion. Cap Anson, former manager of the Chicago Nationals, held the record until last year. Anson hit ober the
 300 mark for Is seasons without a break. Though Wagner is 39 years old he says he will be able to hold up his end not only this season, but a few more seasons
 Every winter the newspaper boys put me on the shelf and says I am through said Honus, "but when the summer time comes old Honus still is able to knock out a hit now and then" Wagner is optimistic about the Pirates chances next season. and firmly believes he will take part in another worlds series before quitting the diamond for good. Honus says he can use the world series coin as well as anyone else In speaking of Pitts burg's chances, Wagner paid many compliments to Fred Clarke's pitch ing staff, particularly to Claude Hen drix, the Cheyenne spftbalIer.

 Griffith does not feel discouraged be- cause Hughey. Jennings doubts the teams ability to be as well up as 1t was last year. He says he is well sat tsfed with the material he has on hand and, barring accident, he will get a much better start this spring than he did last.

| New York, Feb. 1S-The sharp de- 1 cline in stocks of yesterday was fol- ! lowed. in the natural course of events ! in the market, by a temporary upturn l today, owing chiefly to covering of l short interests. and that the rise was | accompanied by no growth of conf dence such as would stimulate trad- 1 ing for the long accounts Even the news that the threatened strike of railway firemen had been averted pro- duced no great effect, and after mod crate gains had been established anon g 1 the standard stocks the market slid off slowly. In the last hour active sell ing was resumed and stocks declined sharply. At the close the leaders had sustained net losses running up to two
 points in Reading.
 The course of prices was disappoint- ing to traders, who had looked upon
 the dispute between the eastern rail
 ways and their firemen as a large fac
 to rin weakening the market. The fail
 ure of the market to make a greater response to this influence was attrib- uted to the remaining uncertainties of the general situation, such as the crf sis in Mexico and the European po- litical situation. For some time the war in the Balkans was almost lost greater tension between Russia and Austria have reawakened apprehen- sions.

 Weakness of some of the specialties while the standard stocks were gain ing ground helped to undermine the market.

PROPOSED RULES CHANGES
 CAUSE DISAGREEMENT
American Trotting Association Has
 Trouble Over New Set of Rules.

Chicago Feb. s.-Proposed changes in the racing rules of the American Troding association came near dis r1pting the organization at spe- cial congress today. Conciliatory tac- tics exercised by Chairman w. P. James prevented a rupture.
 The first fight which lasted an hour and a half was on the admission of proxy votes. The proxies finally were allowed to be voted.
 The next struggle was over the adoption of rule one of the new set of rules to govern racing under the auspices of the association for 1913. These rules were revised. re-arranged and amended by the committee on rules last month and were recommend ed for adoption today.
 Rule one declares that all trotting and pacing races shah be governed by the rules and bylaws and mem bers shall not adopt or be governed by rules or by laws which conflict with them. This means that the rules must not be amended to fit local con- ditions and on this point the dis agreement centered.
 Several men declared they could not live under the proposed rule as local conditions required special rules under which they could make a living.
 Charles Downey of Indianapolis finally moved that rule one be deferred until all other rules should be acted upon and his motion prevailed.
