PRES. LYNCH REPORTS FINDING. Disputed Games Shall Stand as Play
 ed-0iants Had nc Undue Advan-
 tage Over Philadelphia Club.

New York, May 5-The New York Nationals had no undue advantage over the Philadelphia club in the games played at the Polo grounds late in April by reason of the fact that there was 8 hole scooped out of the diamond back of the pitchers box. This is the finding of President Thomas J. Lynch of the National league, on the protests of the Philadelphia club, and he orders that the result of the games shall stand as played.
 The Philadelphia club protested these games, played April 2S and 24, alleg- ing that a hole several inches deep was scooped out back Of the pitchers plate, in violation of the rule which requires the field to slope from the pitchers plate to every base line. New York won the first game to l and the sec ond ' to l.
 During the series President Locke of the Philadelphias, made verbal com plaint to headquarters relative to this hole and Umpire Klem was instructed to have the groundkeeper level off the center field striking back of the rubber. The New York club in an- swer to the complaint said it became necessary this season to put in a new pitchers plate at the Polo grounds and that owing to the rains and the fact that the field is in use every day by the National or Ameri- can League clubs, a slight depression resulted back of the plate

Spirited Bidding on Strength of the
 News from Europe.

New York. May 5.-The decided inn proveHaent in the European political situation consequent upon Montene- gross decision to yield to the powers and the resultant strength Of securities abroad, ecefted the dominating inf1u- ence upon the stock market today. Expectations of speedy settlement of problems which have meHaced the peace of Europe for months opened up the prospect Of the reparchasing of American securities by foreign in- vestors. London, in fact, has been buying stocks on every favorable op- portunfty for some time, and before the opening here American stocks in London were marked up sharply. The situation was one which offered no spirited bidding for stocks to cover when the market opened. London also was in this market. buying most heavily of Sbeel, Au1algamated and Unaon Pacific Operations on thelong side were carried on more confidently qn1ck upt1Tn, resnlti1g in gains for important issHAs of one to three pcluts-
 Tine act1on of the market during the remainder of the day showed that the improving prospects, aEyruad had not prodnc1d sufficient effect here to bring aDOuz aggressive and sustained buy ing for the long account. Trading grew dun and IrSres eased off. al- t41Omgh in the final hour the list rose tO around the top again. Optimistic reports which Wan street has re- ceaved from Europe have several times proved disappointing and there was general disposition to await definite developments before building too strongly upon hopes for peace
 There were several developments at home which served to take off the edge of any tendency toward enthusiasm. Traders were disappointed at the su- pEene courts refusal to extend be- yond JtIGy l the time for completing the Hartman dissolution and Union and Southern Pacific sold off. An- n0unceIaent that exp0Ptatioh of gold to Paris had been resumed, with the engagement of $2.0o0, ,0o0 gold for ship nen4, also was eeoEnted a bearish factor. The rate of exchange sug- gested that g. premium Is Befng paid for the gold. and the foreign exchana e market was unaffected.

minor league managers as sure to set the big time on fire are utter failures and drift back inside of a couple of months, while others, like Becker, who aren't good enough apparently even to get a firm clutch on class A jobs, make great regulations for themselves when they get into more select cir cles."
 Becker is living demonstration of Claude Rossmans celebrated bon mot: You don't have to have any brains to play ball. The new addi- tion to the Reds roster probably cele- brates as slowly and painfully as any body who ever donned the clown suit in Lynchs organization, but he has managed to fool them up there for several years and bids fair to continue the deception. With New York it was comparatively easy for him to get away with his system, for McGraw did all his thinking. On every ball pitched Becker was seen to turn to- ward Muggsy for instructions. He didn't dare hit, wait. steal or do any- thing else without the word from his manager. In fact, they say that he didn't know enough to catch a fly ball hit into his territory without first was all right.

 In the race for the somewhat myth ical title of intercollegiate baseball champion, Yale with eleven consecu- tive victories, is generally conceded to have secured an apprectable lead. By winning Saturday from Brown, which had not met defeat previously this year, the Blue eliminated for the time being its most formidable rival for championship honors. Yale has been beaten only by Pennsylvania and retrieved this defeat by an overwhelm- ing victory over the same team a week ago.

men in minor league baseball. The happening that started MT. Finn's rem iniscent flow was a spirited kick by Beals Becker of the Reds. after he had been called out on a third strike that cut the plate waist high. For a, minute or so after being informed that he was officially a dead bird, Becker stood at the plate and grabbed, al- though everybody else in the park thought there was absolutely no room for argument over this particular de- cisiOn. says one scribe.
 Letting good third strikes sail over the plate always has been habit of Becker said Finn. T remember one day when he was with Mobile that he failed to offer at one that was right in the groove and thereby cost us a chance to win the game. He came up with the bases filled and two out and with the count three and two let a ball go through the heart It made me so sore. coming on top of the other things that he had done along the same line, that 1 told him he was through with me and could go the next day. That evening he came and asked me if what l had said on the bench went and 1 told him that it certainly did and told him that he could look for a job for himself
 Tn the course of an hour or so, I got a telegram from the Boston club asking me to name my lowest price for Becker. At first I thought some body was putting up a joke on me. The idea of a big league clubs bid ding for a player who had just been told that he could pack his things and get out was too strange to be con sidered seriously But l waited around for a time to see what the catch was and as nobody laughed or topped the thing off in any way, l decided that perhaps the Boston manager had gone crazy and actually wanted Becker.
 50 I wired back that I would con sent to part with the peerless Beals for $500 Immediately I got a wire to send him along and he has been in the big league ever since. It is a curious thing about players making good in that large circuit. Some that are touted by
