SOME SLUGGING MATCH
Batting of Cubs and PnIIies Recall
Past Events.

Chicago, Aug. 9.-Lively slugging
reminiscent of the early part of the
season of 1911 featured some of the
big league" games yesterday. Among
the long hits made during the cannon
ade were seven home runs, Luderus of
the Philadelphia Nationals leading
with two of them in a 1913 rout Of
Chicago's pitchers. Becker aided his
teammates in the Cubs defeat with
one homer and the others were made
by Hoblitzel of Cincinnati. Bodie of
the Chicago Americans, Wingo of the
St. Louis Nationals, and Wilson of
PittSburg.
Two years ago the unusual amount
of slugging was popularly accounted
for by the theory that the balls were
made with an extra live core. Later
an experiment was made by Ma
tional League umpire and a Boston
newspaper man indicated that at least
some of the balls then in use were
overweight-just enough heavier than
the kind pitchers were used to to
make the hurlers unable ''to put any
thing on them

FIGHT AMONG GIANTS.
Argument Over the Crandall-McLean
Trade Gets Bloody Nose for Mugsy.

Cincinnati, Aug. st developed
yesterday that trouble which has been
brewing in the ranks of the New York
Nationals since McGraw traded Doc
CrandalI for Larry Mclean, broke out
in an exchange of fisticuffS between
several players and Manager McGraw.
McGraw spoke of the trade as soft
thing for the New Yorks, saying that
he had obtained a great catcher for
pitcher who was never a star and
who had passed the stage of being of
any great use to first division ball
club. This annoyed Mathewson and
Merkle. great friends of Crandall, and
sides were taken in the matter.
1t was near midnight when five of
the New York team who had been
spending the evening together re-
called the memory of Crandall's trade
for Mclean. When McGraw took his
athletes to task for their late hours.
high words were exchanged and sew
eraI blows were struck. Two of the
players of cooler heads prevented the
matter becoming a general fight and
the party finally returned in a body
to their hotel Outside of a bloody
nose, said to have been sustained by
McGraw, there was no damage done.

fire INSURANCE
RATE SCHEDULE
Filed With State Insurance
Commissioner Yesterday
Under New Legislation.
INSURANCE REDUCED
Companies Will Not Increase the
Average Rate For the
State.

Little Rock, July 3.-The schedule
of fire insurance rates for the State
of Arkansas, prepared by the Actuar-
ial Bureau, under the terms of Act
filed today, July 3, with the State
auditor and insurance commissioner.
The limit for the filing of the sche-
dulles had been extended to this time
by Insurance Commissioner Mccain.
The rates are to be applied now as
rapidly as possible, the limit given
for them to be put into effect being
January l, 1914.
The schedule of city rates for Little
Rock will probably be announced
about the list of September.
Scientific Rate Schedule.
The new schedules are the work of
the Actuarial Bureau covering per-
iOd of several months. Seventy-six
fire companies operating in the State
participate in the support of this bu-
reau.
This bureau is large institution,
maintained by the companies at very
considerable expense as a permanent
feature Of the insurance business of
the State. J. S. Speed, one of the
oldest and best known special agents
and insurance experts of the state, is
manager. II. M. Hess, late of the
Missouri Actuarial Bureau, st. Louis,
is actuary. H. M. Clawson is hydrau-
lie engineer in charge of sprinkling
and special hazards. K w. Adkins is
hydraulic engineer in charge of wat
erworks and fire departments. p. W.
Terry, is the chief clerk of the rating
department
There are also seven electrical in
spectors and twenty-five raters and
surveyors, besides a large number OF
clerks and stenographers.
"The companies will not increase
the average rate for the state" said
Mr.. Speed. Instead of that, it is the
hope of the bureau, that it will be able
to so reduce the fire waste as TO en-
able the companies to even reduce the
average rate.
