MARoUARDs was BROKE
 WHEN HE JUMPED.
Couldn't Get Advance Coin, So Signed
 With Brooklyn.

Cornelius J. Sullivan, vice president and director of the New York club, will handle the legal end of the Maruuard case if it reaches the courts. MT. Sul- Ifvan is a shrewd lawyer who has had unusual opportunities to study base bah contracts. President Hempstead has laid all the facts in the Maruuard case before Sullivan, who says there is absolutely no chance for Rube to run out on his New York, contract
 It now develops that Marquard's rash step was the result of his urgent need for ready money. In desperation he applied to Ward and sold out for $I,500- Last week Rube applied to Harry Heu1pstead for an advance. on next season. He was refused and then appealed to McGraw. who promised to do something for him.
 According to McGraw, the New York to Marquard, but on the very day he was to call for the money he signed with the Broodfeds. Marquard, on the other hand. ayers that he was turned down. cold by both Hempstead and Mo- GraE.
 He has never learned to regard a dol lar as something to be saved Since he has made good money in baseball he has let the future take care of it. self. Last fall he figured on getting into the worlds series and earning a few thousand dollars of easy money, and then he proposed to go into svaude- vile with his wife. Blossom Seeley.
 But the worlds series. 'sbusted right in his face and his share of the city series money was trif1e compared to what he had received during the three years the Giants were champions. The worlds series developed other heroes this year, and that killed the demand for Rube's services in vaudeville One disappointment crowded on another until finally the need of ready money was urgent.
 .McGraw had an appointment with Marquard for last Friday afternoon and had arranged to gorto Rube's res cue in a financial way. Marquard did business with Ward on Friday noon. He cashed "a check for $1,500 on Broadway Friday afternoon. and at tended a theatre that night Since then he has refused to make any statements, but it is understood that he is rather appalled, at the possible consequences of his jump. The New York club will not interfere until it is time for .Marquard to make good on his, 1915 contract. In the meantime the Brooklyn club is out .$1, 500.

ECONOMY IS MAcns POLICY.
Reason for the Sale of Collins to tte
 White Sox.

Economy was the principal reason for the sale of Eddie Collins by Con nie Mack to the Chicago White Sox. Incidentally. Collins might have be- come member of the Yankees. with Col. Jacob eRuppert at their head. if Mack had not boosted his price too high. Colonel Ruppert's willingness to price for the franchise could be made satisfactory. originated the idea of taking Collins away from the Athletics.
 More than a month ago, when Gar ry Hermann first told President Ban Johnson of the American league that Colonel Ruppert might buy the Yam kees, the question of star players for the local Americans became an inn portant factor. Colonel Ruppert, so the story goes, asked why he couldn't secure the services of John J. Me Graw, When he was informed that baseball law and a contract that could not be purchased prevented McGraw from leaving the Giants, Colonel Rup- pert through his representatives, made 1t known that he would like to have was notified and he met Ban Johnson, Joseph J. Lannin and one of Colonel Rupperts agents at the Hotel Belmont in New York on Nov. 18th.
 Mack at first said that he did not care to part with Collins but when
 
 that he would take $5o,00o in cash. Subsequently, because he probably thought he could get more money, Mack jumped the. figure to $1OO,0 900. Then Colonel Ruppert's agent declared that Collins wasn't wanted at any price.
 As a matter of fact, Mack was anx- ious to unload Collins because the second baseman's salary was too high. The Athletics lost $60,000 last season in spite of winning the pennant. Col lins received at least one Federal league offer during the summer which made him dissatisfied with his Afh- letic club contract for next year. So Collins held Mack up for a $15,000 salary and signed all over again. Mack, therefore, was visibly disappointed when he found that he could not sell Collins to the prospective purchaser of the Yankees, and as Owner Comis- key of the White Sox realized that Mack was anxious to get rid of the great player he put in bid for his own club.
 Comiskey agreed to pay $25, ,o00 spot cash to Mack, who also will have, the right to select three members of the White Sox before next season opens to balance the deal. Comislxey assum- ed Collins $15,000 salary and the sec- ond baseman signed for five years, at the same time receiving a $5,000 cash bonus. What appears to. be the Yam kees' loss is Comiskeys gain, for Col hns in Chicago will be a wonderful drawing card at the American league grounds.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
BROADENING DEMAND FOR
 HIGH GRADE SECURITIES
Conspicuous Feature of the General
 Financial Situation.

New York, Dec. 10.-Continued broadening of the demand for high grade securities was the conspicuous feature of the general financial situa- tion today, both in stock exchange and among bankers, who reported a large number of "over- counter sales. There were signs of foreign liquidation, pre- sunnably for Germany, but this was taken without strain.
 Both bonds and stocks of speculative quality moved irregularly, but the scope of the trading, as well as it's ex- tent, was below that of recent active days. In the stock list submitted by the. exchange the weakest feature was New York Central, which reflected yesterdays dividend announcement.
 Routine news included the November tonnage statement of the United States Steel corporation, which was more favorable than most forecasts, and the government cotton report, which esti- mated the 1914-15 yield at almost 16,000,000 without linters. Should this promise be fulfilled, the crop will lbe the largest in the history of the coun- try, exceeding the last five year aver age by almost 4.O00 bales. Cotton op- tions broke precipitately on publica- tion of the report.
 Regarding steel trade conditions, leading mills. according to report, have increased their production thus far this month, and indications of genuine betterment were afforded by advances in some special products. Negotiations for the exportatfon of large quantities of rails and ties were still pending, likewise the filling of some substantial domestic orders.
 Bankers were again in conference with representative Of European gov ernments planning the placing of addi- tional credits in this market, but no details concerning these projects were obtainable. Some of the prominent railway and industrial corporations wer also said to have new financing in. contemplation.
 For the first time in several days, Reichsmarks failed to show increasing strength. a fact which was associated with the recent defeat of the German fleet in the South Atlantic. More like. ly, however. it was due to a temporary cessation of demand for these remit tances. London's markets were chser- ful and the Bank of England state nent showed improvement over recent weeks.
