cooMRs COMES BACK. Athletics Pitcher Will Start Work
 immediately.

Jack Coombs physically is a well man once more. Whether he again will be the iron man" of the Athletics pitching staff depends upon future possibilities which medical experts will not forecast. Coombs, at least, will start light work immediately, and when he feels ready to pitch a game and Manager Mack gives his consent, he will attempt his comeback per formance.
 Doctors Carnett, Mcfarland and Brown Have examined COombS and said his condition surpassed their expectations His color was excel- lent, his spine showed more elasticity than at any time since he suffered the injury and he weighed 1S8 pounds. The physicians were greatly pleased, but refused to predict what the future held in store for the Mack finger. They believe Coombs, if he gets into shape gradually. will be able to pitch winning games for the champions this year.
 Coombs was delighted with the yer dict. He said he would start work at once and would pitch for the Athletics when Manager Mack permitted 1t. He probably will not go to Washington, but will work out at Shibe Park until the Mackmen return to Philadelphia next Tuesday.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
DEADLOCK IN MARKET.
Trading at StandstilI Most of the Day
 Price Changes Fractional.

New York, May 13.-Monotony ruled unchallenged on the stock exchange to- day. Nothing occurred to break the deadlock into which the market has professional traders who usually are able to find something in a dull days news to advance as a plausible reason for buying or selling stocks bave it up and retired from the field and the mar ket was at standstill much of the time. Most stocks held throughout the entire session within small fractions of yesterdays close.
 It~was general opinion that the mar ket had gone about as far as it could in weighing and translating into stock movements the influences in the pres ent uncertain situation. Accordingly it was felt that. barring the unexpect- ed, not much could be looked for pend ing the clearing up of one or more inn portant questions hanging over the market, such as Mexican mediation and the freight rate cases. Reports from Washington that the decision in the rates cases would be announced this week were not taken seriously, and at tempts to base a buying moN ement on them came to naught.
 In the first hour prices hardened, but the upturn was checked before it attained sufficient proportions to be of significance. Toward the close the un- dertone became heavier. influenced by pressure against Canadian Pacific and Lehigh Valley, Selling of Canadian n Pacific was said to be due to liquida- ton of holdings taken over by Q syn dicate to a London house which was in difffculties. Slight losses were the rule at the end of the day.
 London was disposed to take back some of the stocks recently un1oaded here. Trading for foreign account. however, amounted to only about 5000 shares. Foreign exchange rates re- faxed from their unusually high points and 1t was thought probable that no more gold would be shipped abroad for the present, unless special induce ments should be held out.
 Weakness of Rock Island coliaterals was without influence on other bonds. few issues which recently were un- der pressure advanced. Total sales of bonds, par va1SIo, si $50, 900.

Fire fighting is being rapidly revo- lutionixsd by the automobiie or motor driven apparatus and with the sensa- tional feats these vehicles are perform ing nearly every day it seems likely that the horse will soon be abandoned as part of a fire departments equip ment because of comparative fnefh- ciency. Fast runs by automobile ap- paratus also diminish the possible loss from fire and in time will undoubtedly affect insurance rates.
 Amarillo, Texas, recently provided a spectacular example of what can be done in this line of public service. A fire truck built on stock Cadillac chassis and carrying, with hose, lad ders, chemicals and tools. an overload of POO pounds and with a total weight of 5000 pounds. made a remarkable run to the state normal fire, covering a distance of g 2-1oths miles in 31 minutes The last nine miles were done in 10 minutes and the average speed was 46 miles an hour. The run was made over country roads. over hills and through canyons and around 12 short turns.
