Cardinals Get Extra Coin for Their
Great Fight.

When the Cubs licked Cincinnati
yesterday and the Pirates trimmed
st. Louis twice, there were loud
lamentations from the Cardinal ath-
letes, and they felt that Cubs and
Pirates had dipped into their pockets
and temporarily relieved them Of a
large slice of coin.
The mad dash the Cards made for
the top Of the heap was almost as
great a sensation as the dizzy squirt
of the Braves. Various reasons were
advanced for the st. Louis surge.
Jack Miller was given a large share
of credit. Miller Higgins was billed
as the willy manager of the day, and
the excellent string of Card pitchers
were duly lauded for holding the
enemy while the Weak-batting Cards
went out and got few runs.
All of these factors were important,
no doubt, but President BTitton of the
st. Louis team did the real business
early IN the spring. when he offered
a bonus to the players for finishing
at various point in the race.

Walter J. Travis will play Jerome
Travers, and Francis Ouimet is
matched against W. G. FoWnes in the
semi-final of the national amateur
golf tournament today. All four
stars, were successful yesterday and
won by rather easy scores. Ouimet
and Travers were playing the best
golf of the tournament.
Bob Gardner of HinsdaIe was elm
mated by Ouimet. Gardner has not
had enough practice to put him in
championship condition and he was
off the course frequently.
George CLANCY of Baltimore fore
ed Knockout Mars to quit in the fifth
round at Cincinnati. Mars seconds
declared his arm was hurt, but
CLANCY was easily the master Of the
Redland terror.
Jimmy KIroy writes again that he
is peeved. Jimmy had his welter,
Jimmy Cassidy, matched with Tom
nv Sheehan for the Labor Day date
in Kankakee, and he was patting
himself on the back at prospects of
an easy victory and another step up
the ladder for his man.
Yesterday he got telegram from
promoters of the club to the effect
that Sheehan would be unable to fill
the date. Whereupon Jimmy emits
loud and justified walls about a jinx,
and calls himself the unIuckiest guy
in the world.
Steve Yerkes won a game for Pitts
burgh with his bat, but Bailey's good
pitching gave the first to Baltimore.

NOT A MILLION
Share DAY IN
THE YEAR 1918

During the year 1918, which stock
marketWise was the poorest since
1897, there was not single day that
sales on the New York stock exchange
crossed 100000 shares. This unusual
occurrence has not happened since
1898.
The busiest day of the year 1918
was June 10, the day before the mark
ing Of the extreme low prices, when
sales amounted to 81 ,222 shares. The
only other five-hour session that the
appreciate crossed SOC, 900 shares was
on January IA. when S03,6S2 changed
hands. The third largest days bust
ness was on June 4, when the turn
over was 793,643 shares o.,
1t will be interesting to recall that
one of the stock exchanges record
dull days occurred during 1913. when
on November 49, sales totaled 57,274
shares, the smallest five-hours' trad
ing since Feb. IA, 1888, the absolute
record dull day, when only 1920
shares changed hands.

foreign TRADE OF THE
UNITED STATES GRATIFYING

The government figures for the year
records are for the IL months ending
with June, so that the comparison of
the estimate of $740,000,000 for the
calendar year 1913 is not exactly cor
rect, but 1t serves the purpose of en-
phasizing the strength Of the show
ing of 1913, nevertheless. The largest
excess of exports ever reported by the
government for the June year was in
1908 when the total reached $685..
100000, while next to that was 1901
with 1864, 100000. The indicated to-
tai for the Il months ending with De-
cember, 1913, is therefore. largely in
excess Of the best previous record and
shows that in one very important par.
tieular, at least, the year now ended
has been an exceptionally good one, in
direct contrast with the prevailing
opinion as to the place that 1913
should occupy in our industrial indus
try.

Volume of Stock Handled Dur

Strong gains were made in the vO-
lume OF business in stocks for the
six day period ending Friday. The
market responded to the testimonials

in one or two stocks, the majority
held their own against loss.
Several of the stocks heavily dealt
in were sent here from San francisco.
This is particularly true in the case
OF Hawaiian Commercial. Several
hundred shares were thrown on the
market, and a significant thing in this
connection is that the market absorb

of the stocks dealt in quite heavily.
II made a two and a half point gain.

NEW YORK.-The prevailing opin-
ion CT 1913 is that it has been a most
unsatisfactory year, and certainly from
the standpoint Of the stockbroker that
is true, yet in many respects it gives
cause for rejoicing. The total value
Of our crops this year was in excess
of year ago, and in other directions,
such as the average price received for
copper and the output of the steel
mills, figures for the IL months Of
the yearrnow ended make most sat
isfactory comparison. In no direction,
however, is there greater cause for re-
joicing than in the record made by
our foreign trade. The total exports
from the IL months amounted to ST..
Isl ,000, 900, an increase of 100000
900 over the same months of last year
This establishes a new record, and it
is gratifying to find that an increase
in exports Of manufactured goods has
played a large part in causing the ia
yorable comparison.
The total imports made a less sat
isfactory showing as they amounted
to 55,000,000 less than in the II
months of last year. The volume of
imports during that period was prob
ably reduced by the expectation of a
lower tariff, but IL is noteworthy that
imports. since the new duties went
into effect, have not increased suffi-
ciently to create a fear that the lower
tariff duties will cause a great influx
Of foreign made goods to the detriment
of our domestic industries The most
satisfactory feature of the showing
made by cur foreign trade is in the
excess Of exports over imports. The
total for the II months was $642, 00O,-
600, which will be increased to $740,.
100000 If the excess for the month of
December is equal to that for Novem-
Der This would be by far the largest
excess of exports ever reported for
II months period and means that Eu.
rope must offset so much in one way
or another
