Philadelphia, Aug. What would Il

three BAH games at Mack park?
The answer can not be given here,
but if at least four of those players

would run well up into the thousands.
And they Il De worth it.
The color of their skin keeps a num-

but several OF them arc as Suod as
the stars of the big game.
There is padrosa, who is as black
as any ink ever used in an art school.
Padrosa is a pitcher, second in impor-
tannc 80 The great black Ncudcz. who
is in cuba this summer. unable to
pitch Padrosa could hold o. per cent
of The pitchers in the big leagues on
even terms and probably he would do
better than that If extended.
Then there is Torricnt, right hclder
for the Cubans. He is as black as
?adrosa, which is the ultimate shade
of the African complexion. TORRENT
is short and stoc}y and slams a ball
like Crawford n Baker.
For grace and speed fcw can be
found in the major leagues To equal
Chacon, ;hc Cuhan shortstop, and Mo-
ran. their third sacker. They are brill

MON

The local monetary situation covering
the movements of currency during the
last week shows that there has been no
extraordinarily heavy drain OF cash from
the banks and some Improvement is
promised, responsible partly, at least, to
the fact that the Treasury at Washington
again has begun putting out funds to the
banks of the West and South. Since the
beginning Of October about S,OCO,OO has
been deposited in these interior districts,
making a total of around $32, 100000 since
the beginning of September. Naturally,
the effect has been the same this time as
during the previous month, and funds
have been flowing eastward to pay on
the obligations of the interior banks at
this point. There appears to be a strong
demand for funds on the Pacific Coast,
and further telegraphc transfers through
the Sub-Treasury to San Francisco may
follow The position of exchange IN Mon
treal, which has shown a tendency to de-
cline, may lead to more gold shipments
from this point TO Canada. The statement
of the Bank of England for last week was
encouraging, as it suggested that the de-
mand for the October settlement had been
met and the bank had not been forced TO
advance its discount rate. This does not
mean that there is not and will not con-
tinue to be pressure on the foreign money
markets. but there is every sign that the
Bank of England, the Bank OF France
and the Reichsbank will maintain SUM-
GENTLY strong position 10 prevent any
serious trouble. Rates for time accommo-
d0tions in the local market displayed an
easier tendency in the closing days OF the
week. and there was a plentiful supply OF
call money at the average renewal rate of
3ls per cent, as compered with per cent
al the beginning Of the week. Local in
stitutions were not inclined TO encourage
commitments for fixed periods and trans
actions were comparatively few in time
accommodations. while the dull state OF
the stock market made little demand for
call loan,

SIGNS OF ECONOMY.

Pipes and pennies among the working
people indicate the coming or hard times
as surely as the flight Of the Wild birds
10 the Southland points the coming OF
winter" said Joseph Bailey. OF Muncie.
Ind, at the Shoreham.
II have noticed for a generation that
whenever the wage-earner walks up TO
tar and hands out five pennies for glass
OF beer. then Ills his pipe from handful
of tobacco he carries in his pocket. in
stead of using larger coin and smoking
cigar, business conditions are uncertain.
Years ago a philosophical saloU!lAeeper
PORTED out TO me that pennies and pipes
instead OF nickels and cigars in barrooms
foreshadowed the coming OF harder times.
| have watched for number OF years
to see whether that philosophical saloon
keeper was right in his theory, and /
have found IL so wherever | have been.
The reason seems to be that when times
are good the workingman hands his pen
MES to the children and smokes cigars.
