LOOK OUT FOR TIGERS.
FaIkenberg Says Detroit Will Be Sur
prise Of 1914 Race.

Cleveland. O., oct. 3.-Cy Falkcn-
berg, Nap pitcher springs Il new dark
horse for next years American league
race.
''Look out for those Detroit Tigers to
cut big figure in the 1914 race" is
Cy's forecast They will be one OF tn"
most dangerous contenders for the
bunting. They now have three grea
pitchers in Dauss, Dubuc and Willett.
''Dubuc is one Of the headiest twirl-
ers i'm the business Dauss is as great
as any pitching find Of the present sea-
son and Willett is coming back with Il
vengeance.
Now let nughie Jennings find an
ether of his bunch of twirlcrs ready to
deliver the goods and he won't need to
take of his hat to anybody on the
pitching question.

Detroit has been pitching weakness.

won more than he lost. Then he came
through with his next winning strca,:
about which the fans are talking now.
Johnson is one man who is master of
his own mind, supreme over all such
things us worry. He knows worry
would impair his success, So he com
mands himself: Don't worry" And
he doesn't worry.
Not only in his physical ability but
in his will power ana mental strength
johnson ranks at the tip top today.
He shares the last two qualities with
Mathewson. Though many proclaim
the old master as approached in mat
ter of mind and will power-the latter
meaning in baseball almost the same
thing as GOODNESS and steariness--and
he outclasses every other man alive
in the first. Chicagoans may arise
and cry Ed Walsh to this last. Walsh
is great, Mathewson is great. but
johnson is greater in his present day
And IL is sure that the clear thinking
wonder will continue on and on, and at
the end possess a career that will class
with, if not outclass, those Of Matty
and the revoted Cy Young who lasted
over 20 years as star. johnson,
with the physical ability Of Gusie
or Waddell, the mind and will of Il
Mathewson and the breath of service
of Young, would provide an entire
chapter in the baseball book of all time
that fans Of the future would never
tire Of reading.

Artisan Golfer Forced Into Profes.
sonai Ranks in England.

London, oct. 3.--"Abc" Mitchell. the
noted artisan golfer, says that he was
driven into the professional ranks on
account of the intense hostility shown
to him in the last two amateur tourna =
ments because of the fact that he is a
working man. Writing to the Coli
Monthly. he says:
MY chief offenso has been when
was born an artisan. In following my
occupation to get a living. first as a
gardener. then as "a chauffeur, | had
more opportunities to play golf than
the ordinary British artisan has the
right to expect. There are golf game
classes in England, ana an artisan
golfer is not wanted in amateur cir
cles.'
Mitchell says that he fully intended
To cross the Atlantic To compete in
both the amateur and open tourna-
mcnts, but was warned before his de-
parture that measures would he taken
to prevent him from driving from tho
first tee

American LEAGUE.

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. S.-Only -four
and onc-half innings of the first game
Of the series with the New York team
which Manager Mack of the Philadcl-
phia team intended should he used as
Il basis for putting his players in first
class trim for the worlds series con-
tests, could be played yesterday after
noon.
While New York was at bat in the
fifth inning, with the score o 10 ., a
hard shower caused the umpire To- sus-
pend play. In few minutes the field
was so soggy that the game was called
off.
For the first time in a week Manager
Mack had his full strength in the field.
When Bender and Schang were sent
in at the start of the game it was
taken as an indication that they would
form II battery in the worlds series
and that they would probably be the
men selected To do this work In the
first engagement of the big series.
Bender pitched only three innings. He
had excellent control ana only two hits
were made off him.

ed buoyant and prices were soon well
established at new high levels. The
buying, most particularly in the mar
ket leaders, was of excellent character
and suggested accumulation.
Throughout; the session, profit-taking
sales were in evidence, and il may
readily enough be said that the market
acquitted itself in digestins these sales
very creditably. Weakness in Mis-
souri, Pacific. due 10 specific cause. was
the only counter move Of consequence.
Sentiment as to the minor industrials
was helped by the declaration of an
initial dividend on Central Leather

reported as being slightly easier. 1t

fects of the currency legislation, but
it remains 10 be said that consensus of
opinion is that the country at least
has made a step forward in this direC-
ton With the market in sold-out
condition, prices should continue to
reflect this optimistic sentiment.

wheat surplus estimates are reduced
to 100000 or 100000. These re-
duced figures are a notification OF for
mer bad crop news. For present there
is every indication that the two gov
eminent reports of last week have eX-
hausted their effect. Kansas and Mis-
souri, have received more snow. Prim-
airy receipts of wheat Monday were
very large. The corn visible will evil

in store and about 100000 on track.
Sample grade corn in the local market
averages probably 80 to % cents with
No. yellow IS to 63c. May corn is
sc. These astounding discounts for
the cash corn must set the corn
raiser in a cape after his dreams of
SO-cent levels. Cash men argue that
these low prices for No. 4 and sam
pie stuff must bring a nearby cessa-
ton in the corn movement. Mean
while Argentine corn continues TO
percolate around the east. Under the
depression of these factors, which will
undoubtedly breed savage protection
