MARKET REPORT.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Nov.
2.-Cattle advanced 25 to IS cents
last week, under the favorable in
fluenceS of a reduction of $4,000
head from the previous week in
the supply, coupled with a strong
er demand from The country.
StOckerS and feeders sold 40 to
Is higher, killing grades % to so
higher. The Bureau of Animal
Industry quarantined the Chicago
stock yards Saturday against
shipments to the country of stock
and feeding cattle and sheep. This
and a good demand from killers
caused an excited market here
this morning, and sales were
strong to % higher, receipts o.
900 head. Packers are reported
to be in great need of meat to fill
war contracts, and newspaper
statements are current that some
contracts have been turned over
to Independent SlaughtererS by
the big packers. No prime cattle
we're here today, some heavy
steers at 1925 to $685., and year
lingS at SO being the best here.
Prime cattle are extremely scarce,
and quotable up to 81, with the
probability that they will continue
firm. Kansas grass cattle sold up
to $50, and some fed westerns
at So. Colorado feeders sold al
$40, horned killers al $40, me-
dunn quality Colorado feeders at
81, Colorado Texas beef steers at
$3.50, prices close to the high
point on this class of cattle. Choice
New Mexico yearlingS at SS.45,
Panhandle twOS up to $7.S5, feed
erS $3.50, stock calves $3.50 to
SS.25, cows up to Sc, vealS $1O.5O.
Quarantine arrivals amounted to
13 cars, market unevenly higher,
some medium steers at $6.75, top
price paid in the last 10 days.
Hog receipts were 5000 today,
market steady to order buyers,
who paid up to $40, about 5 low
er to packers, who stopped at
S7.35. The winter packing sea-
son opens today, and killers are
anxious to make as heavy a kill
ing record in November as posi-
BILE. 1t has been their aim to put
the market down to a basis where
they can compete freely for hogs,
without being occupied in putting
prices down, and this point is be-
lieved to have been reached.
Sheep receipts today were 15,-
900, market strong TO 10 higher,
top lambs $S, paid for natives. Fat
ewes are worth up to $3.50, feed
ing lambs $6.25 10 81. The clos
ure of the Chicago market to feed
ing sheep will cause more west
ernS to be disposed of at the Mis-
souri, river markets and Kansas
City is probably better able to
handle a surplus from the source
than any other market, account
of the light receipts of westerns
now coming here.

CHAMPIONS PLAYING
 EXCELLENT BALL. Philadelphia Americans Are Almost
 Unbeatable.

Contrasts in the two big league baseball races developed during the past week. In the American league the world champion Philadelphia team played almost unbeatable ball and ran up it's lead over the nearest club to six and a half games In the National league the New Yorks met with a week of defeats, winning. only one game in five; but as Chicago, the Giants nearest rivals, were still more unsuccessful in their weeks work, the New Yorks managed to retain their leadership, holding a three game mar gin as the new week opened.
 The Boston Nationals made rapid progress upward, winning five games and losing none. and are threatening at their present gait to pass both St Louis and Chicago. Cincinnati moved up notably in percentage again by a week of unbroken victories. The other clubs did only average work and none is threatening a spurt.
 Another Boston team, the Red SoX, is moving up fast in the American league, having now a firm grip on second place. Washington played bet ter ball than in recent weeks, but De- troit, Chicago and St. Louis all lost with considerable regularity. The New Yorks had their best week of the sea- son, taking six out of seven from Cleveland and finishing with eight victories and only three defeats.

FOUR PLANTERS BATTING
 OVER 300 MARK
6arberich, Spencer, Marhefka anc
 Ahearn Are the Leaders,

Unofficial batting and fielding aver ages compiled to include games up to Saturday evening, give the Planters four 300 hitters- Barberich, Spencer, Marhefka and Ahearn. Marhefka is the real leader and despite his bat ting slump for the last few games, has averaged hit per game since the season opened Ahearn, tied with Marhefka, though taking part in 5S games, had also cut in with a hit a game. The next five men. in order have done better than one hit per game, though they do not rank as high in the percentage column
 The team is not batting at the clip it should, though games are added to the won column with great regular ity. This is due principally 10 air tight pitching, for if the Planters are not batting in many runs their oppo- nents are getting evr less off the local staff of hurlers
 In fielding the team holds its own Spencer, Martin, Green and Barberich having played errorless ball to date Briggs still leads the rest of the field and Hildebrand has crawled one point ahead of Ahearn. whose percentage is the same as last week. The cellar occupants have boosted their averages few points, Rock adding six points to his mark and Marhefka four. The averages follow:

BRAVES AND TANKS
 FEATURE ON FIELD
Birdie Cree Cutting Great Figures for
 Chancemen.

The races of the two major leagues have been enliyened lately by teams the cellar. Frank Chances array took a very startling brace on the recent home stand against the western clubs. So far in the west his charges have held to this general uplift. The Boston Nationals have been even more sen sational in their fight against odds and have rung up so many victories that they are fast becoming a real menace to the peace of mind of Me- Graw. The New York Americans have very little chance of gaining a first division berth this season because of very serious slump a month after the season opened. But Boston has far better than an outside opportunity to beat out the field. Stalling's Braves are less than ten games behind the Giants and have been coming much faster than any opponent for more than month. Within that time they have picked up on the Giants almost as many games as now separate them from McGraw's champions. Strangely enough, Giant castoff has figured most prominently in this great squirt. Pitcher Dick Rudolph is the man.
 The redemption of Birdie Cree from the Baltimore team put a lot of new life into the Chancen1en. But for the weakest lot of hitters ever seen on any major league club Chance now would be up among the leaders. He has as good a defensive club as can be found anywhere, while his pitch ing staff embraces a number of the best right handlers in the game. Ever since the desertion of Heine Schultz Chance has been forced to go along without the services of a southpaw. Under this circumstance it is remark able that his pitchers have done so we'll The greatest American league sluggers are left handed batters and therefore enjoy a marked advantage over right handed pitching.
 Ray Caldwell is the star of Chance S corps. With a team that has not won nearly half it's games, Slim has won seventeen and lost only seven games. He has figured in twenty-six diamond struggles, during which he allowed only 130 hits. Caldwell has a better pitching average than the great Wal ter Johnson. Mathewson, who has won nineteen and lost five games, tops Caldwell by very distinct margin. The Old Master, however, is backed by a team which has averaged almost six victories in every ten starts New York, on the other hand, has won only slightly over four of every ten so far

Trouble Started Over Expense Hughes Files Claim Against Sachems for Using Player Who Was Not EHgibe-Receipts Will Soon be Divided

met Sunday night at the Bulletin of flee to talk about the division of re- ceipts, a difference arose as follows: Manager Hughes claimed that the only expenses to be taken out were speci- fled in the agreement and Manager McBurney wanted more expenses, put the All Stars manager announced his intention of standing by the agree ment, and so did the men who signed the paper. Then the Sachems clalmed that the All Stars forfeited all the re- ceipts by playing Croker in right field, but Manager Hughes showed that he played against the Hospital on June 29th
 Now Manager Hughes says that he has secured evidence to show that Sul- liyan who was placed in right field Sunday was not eligible to play and

is taking steps to prove his claim, and if he can do SO. according to the agreement the Sachems must forfeit the entire receipts But if the Sa- chems can prove that Sullivan has played, the receipts will be divided according to the agreement, which will be either Wednesday or Thursday or at convenient date.
 The Sachems broke the agreement, thus losing all the gate receipts, ac- cording to Manager Hughes, who says he will carry the matter to law if necessary, and if he cannot settle the matter it will have to pc settled st court says Hughes. The agreement was dated July 5. 1914, and signed by John Casey and Louis Ensling of the Sachems, and John E. Hughes of the All Stars.

MAJOR LEAGUE AVERAGES.
How the Players Are Batting in Two
 Organizations.

Birdie Cree has wrested the leader ship of the American league batters from the only Ty Cobb this week and baseball fans are requested to notice the unusual feature of a minor Ieaguer holding the top away from one of the biggest major league stars. Cree has vindicated the judgment of Man ager Chance in buying him back from the Baltimore Internationals, but what of the judgment that prompted that same manager to sell him a couple of seasons ago there is nothing to say Chance was lucky to get him back Walter Maranville is batting for 257 and Leslie Mann has a mark of 239 at the present time. The averages of the players batting about .270 are as follows;
