VETERAN cATcHERs IN GAME.
Only Few Left With the Big Show
 Youngsters Creeping Into Lineups.

One by one the battery men pass, needing the voice of time, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. They are parts of the never ending procession. Not so very long ago the box scores re- vealed the names of Frank Bowerman Malachi Kittredge, Jack Warner, Billy Sullivan and Johnny Kling. The first three named are gone from the big leagues. Sullivan, the old warhorse of the White Sox, and King of the Braves are still in the major ring, but they are about done as catcherS. Sul- livan officiated in 3s games last year This season he may not work at all. Bill is as slow as a pushcart now. KIng was back of the stick in "A con tests in 1912, but his receiving was not up to the Kling standard. Sc Boston released him. It's time for Johnny to announce his retirement and make it good.
 Then there are three other veterans of a later period who will not be seen in upper crust circles this season They are Gabby Street, Charley Schmidt and Jimmy Stephens Street was with Washington a long time and last spring was shifted to the New York Yankees. The old pep wasn't there and he was shipped to Providence. Schmidt, fla nous on the Merk1e order for dropping a third strike in one of the worlds s series games between the Cubs and Tigers, and causing the score to be tied, left fast society over a year ago. He is now with Providence. Jimmy Stephens has been with the St. Louis Browns for several campaigns. He was let out recently to Buffalo, being the last of the old Brown catchers to join the minors.
 To fill the places of the stars who have faded and to succeed those who are yet to fade. major league clubs have loaded up with young catchers. Not in years has there been such a splendid entry of highly press agented juvenile baclsstops as will be found on the various rosters this spring. There is Schang from Buffalo. whom every club in both big circuits has a draft in for. Connie Mack was the lucky one, and he grabbed him. Last year Schang was the resounding, sparkling sensa- tion of the International league Bos- ton has Cady, who was the real noise

A SELLING WAVE.
Prices Borne Down in a Nervous and
 Weak Market.

New York, Feb. 17.-AnOtEer wave of selling bore down prices of stocks today. The market was nervous and at times acute weakness developed. PessimiStic feeling has become so widespread that the present tendency is to exaggerate the importance of any unfavorably. The reception today of reports from abroad of J. P. Morgan's s illness illustrated the effect of new bearish influences. coming on top of those which previously weakened the speculative position The reports gave traders a scare and those on the long side hastened to unload stocks at the opening. The effect of this selling was heightened by a vigorous bear attack, and quotations broke abruptly, with wide openings in the favorit4 stocks. Steel sold all the way from 62 to SO 7-S in the first minute after trading be- gan
 Measuring statements as to Mir Morgan's condition checked the selling, and the market rose slowly, some stocks effecting a substantial recovery. In the late afternoon there was a re- newed outburst of selling. and some stocks reached the low point of the day. although covering in the last few minutes reduced final losses. The bot tom level of the session showed ma terial declines for practically all the important stocks. running up to over six points in Canadian Pacific and two or more among such issues as Reading, Union Pacific and Steel Sell ing of Steel was heavy, many large blocks being thrown on the market. A number of leading issues reached the lowest prices for over a year.
 The crisis in Mexico and fears ef & strike of firemeh were features that contributed largely to the market s unsetdement. London and the centi- nent were reported early sellers of o,eoo shares, chiefly Canadian Pacific, Union and Pacific and Reading. Later London bought some 5000 shares of Union Pacific and the eoppeFs.

ONE-HALF BOTTLE OF THE GREAT KIDNEY REMEDY
 ACCOMpLISHES WONDERS

When I sent for a sample bottle of Swamp Root. 1 was in great distress day and night. Before received sam pie by mall, I went to our best doctor (and he is second to none in this v1cfnity) and told him how I felt. He put me up & bottle of medicine. I was about week taking the medicine. but was no better than when I began. I then began your sample bottle and before l got through with 1t, I felt change. The scalding sensation did not bother only a few times in the middle of the day. I would not have believed such a small quantity would have done so much, but before it was gone I learned that our druggist kept Dr. Kilmer's -Swamp-Root and so got a large bottle for one dollar but ac tua1ly worth one hundred dollars I only took one large tablespoonful three times 8 day and before I had taken one-half bottle I was all right and have been since.

BEscHER's BASE RUNNING
 WONDERFUL FROM STRAT.
The Beet in National League Since He Broke in Four Years Aso-Tagged Twice Last Season.

Bob Bescher of the Cincinnatti Reds has "a chance to shatter National league record the coming season by doing what he did last year-nanefy, setting the pace among the base burg :. lars. In the past, in the parent organ izatfon, players have won the base stealing honors in five campaigns, but not in five consecutivee campaigns. BeEcher, if he ranks No. among the hassoclxs h1chers in 1913, will be en- titled to all the more credit for shat tering a National league record by leading the base-stealing brigade five years in succession, since he only has been in the National league a trif1e over four seasons joining the Reds in Right away he demonstrated that he would bother the catchers. stealing ten bases in thirty games in which he participated.
 Tigers Tudned Him Down.
 In 1909 Bescher. previously deenied made an ideal running mate for Ty- rus Raymond Cobb, led the National leaguers in base stealing, with fifty four larcenies and the habit he ac- quired in 1909 he has since maintained for his rank was No in 1910 1911 and 1912.
 Bescher was one of the few Cincin- nati players who received votes from the Chalmers jury experts as being the National leagues most valuable player, is regarded by many as one of the sanest base-runners in the profess sion and has the reputation of never trying to boost his record by making unnecessary steals. That the Rhine lander knew when to set out to beat his way->to either second or third is evidenced by the fact that only ten times last year he failed to attain the goal for which he set forth. AS he made sixty-seven successful steals,his base-running average. calculated in the new way, would be .S70-hgures mn haff ha n Clyde Milan. the American leagues champion base-runner.
 Winpo Did 1t Twice.
 Beschers first unsuccessful attempt to steal was in the game played on May 4, Ivy Wingo of the Cardinals turning him back from second. Win go did the same thing to Bescher later in the season and was the only back baeksteps who ailed the Cincinnati speeder were Roger Bresnahan, Tom Needham, Jimmy Archer Will Ki1lifer, Peaches Graham, Otto Miller, Chief Meyers and Mike simon.
 Beb's Worst Day.
 Probably the worst day Bescher had on the bases was September 12. In the first inning of a game with Brock lyn, Bescher was caught off second by Pitcher Don Carlos Patrick Began and later in the same contest thespeeder was naiEed in an attempt to steal to the midway by Miller. The Superbas won the game, l to 0.
 Thricee Baescher stole three bases in games, the backstops he victimiaed being Miller, Meyers and Kelly. He scattered his sixty seven steals through games, making one in each of forty contests and two in nine. The catehers that Bescher found the easi- est to steal on were those employed by St. Louis while the backstops who kept him from taking liberties were New York's.
