RISE OF SALARIES IN
BASEBALL is DAZZLING
BY WALTER MARCHAND

New York. July 13.-The fact that
Brooklyn took as dts share from the
Fourth of July games the neat sum of
$4,000, gives some idea of the tre-
mendous business into which baseball
has developed.
Forty-four years ago the first pro-
fessional ball club in the world was or
ganized. 1t was the famous Cincin-
natl Reds, the pioneer paid baseball
club. There were 10 players on the
ciup, OF which one was a pitcher, Asa
Brainard, and another was a substi-
tute The average salary per player
was less than $1,000 or to be exact.
$soo. The highest paid man was
George Wright the shortstop.
In 1859 this club played through the
entire season. from March 10 to No
yember 10, and never lost game. 1t
finished the season with a standing of
1000.

Eddie Plank is now the only member
OF the Athletic pitching corps who op-
crates from the off port Mack will
need another left-hander before the
season is over, and the chances are that
he wilr-get him.
Outside of the pitching staff the Ath-
letics are all to the good Their reer-
lar inheld is going like a streak on the
defense and was never in better form
at the bat.
furthermore, there is Harry Davis.
who with only 10 minutes notice can
go in game and play first Then Bill
Orr the young Coast Lacquer, is one of
the most capable utility helders ever
possessed by Mack. lie is good pinch
hitter and can play any position in the
infleld.
In the outfield there is no doubt that
the Athletics are far stronger than any
club in the American and National
leagues Oldring, Strunk, Eddie Mur
phy' Danny Murphy Jimmy Walsh and
Pete Daley form the sextet de luxe and
unbeatable In every department.
Behind the bat the Athletics. with
Lapp, Thomas and Schang, are lust a.
good as in any other branch, which
means they are right at the top of the
majors. e

Harking back, the pay roll of that
little club was led by George Wright
who got $1400; Captain Harry Wright
pulled down $1,000 for his share. The
pitcher who went through the season
with clear record got S110O. Six
men drew in $500.
And Hans Wagner pulled down a
cool $4,000 for galloping around
bases.
Some difference, what!
Tyrus Cobb got $4,000 last year and
held out for $4,000.
NOW you could take Wagner's
salary and Ty Cobb's salary, lump
them, and have two orld-beaters-

THE CROP MARKETS
Grains Again Show Advances,
Coffee CLOSING Steady.

Export trade was the main feature of
interest in the wheat market yesterday,
and while the early trading was under
the influence of bearish news from abroad
and failure of foreign markets to re-
spond to our advance of Thursday, with
weakness as natural consequence, the
market firmed up In the late trading, and
the close was at near the top, with a net
gain for the day of 1s4l1c. Argentine
shipments for the week were 100000
bushels, against $4,000 last week, but
worlds exports for the week We're slightly
smaller than for the preceding week.
Corn also started out with a slight re-
action. but recovered in the late trading
on reports of large export sales, closing
%GSc up. a good absorbing demand for
oats and the infuence'of the other grains
kept the market steady, with final gain
of Isd1sc.
Coffee trading is quiet pending the an
nouncement OF the valorization sales and
most OF the day the market followed the
lead OF an opening to 6 points down.
Some buying by trade interests and COW
ering by shorts in the late session steadied
the market. and the close was at l point
down to net higher, the best of the day.

STEEL'S untitled ORDERS
Increase for December Less
than in Previous Months.

The United States Steel Corporation S
statement OF untitled orders on December
81, made public yesterday. showed a total
of 1882, 16i tons. as against 7,S52,sS3 tons on
| November 30, an increase Of 79,2Sl tons.
Compared with previous months this in
crease is a small one, as in November the
Steel Corporation reported a net gain in
untitled orders of approximately 25S,OO
tons; In October 1,043,0oO tons. September
iSS,Oo0 tons and August 2o6,Oo0 tons.
In view Of the remarkable exhibits Of
the late summer and fall months, how
ever, the December showing was not re-
garded i'm an unfavorable light. In fact,
it is stated the tendency of the Steel Cor
poration's bookings for the last two years
has been upward and the mills have
enough business on hand TO keep them
busy for at least six months without In
corruption.
II is said that II the statistics were COM
piled according to the system in force up
TO few years ago the December figures
would probably show new high record.
The present untitled tonnage has been ex-
cceded three TIRES before. namely. on Sep
TENDER Is. 1906. when 7,9Ss, S4 tons were re-
ported: December 81. 1906, with s4s9,71S
tons and March 81, 1907. with S,0i3.SjS tons.
