FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
DAYS CHANGES SMALL.
Movements Of Leading Stocks Held
Within Narrow Limits.

New York, Jan. 9.-Movements Of the
leading stocks today were held within
narrow limit At the outset prices
eased off moderately, but bear traders
encountered buying orders when they
attempted to depress the list further,
and the make improved. For time
the range was slightly above yester-
| days close, but late selling move
ment scaled down quotations. Changes
on the day were small and irregular.
A few stocks broke away from the
remainder of the list and moved more
widely. Shares of the southern and
southwestern railroads and of the fer
tilizer companies were Influenced IA
vorably by the cotton ginning report
Missouri Pacif1c'S advance was assoc
ciated with the showing of pronounced
strength made by the company's short
term notes. Tobacco stocks made large
gains.
New York Central was HEAVY all
through the day, although pressure
against this stock apparently das due
to short selling rather than to liquida-
ton. The quotation dropped to SO IL,
the lowest figure since 1907.
An outline of antitrust bills to be

while many of the governors also point
out the benefit TO the public from bet
ter roads secured at minimum cost.
Governor Dunn of Illinois states that
humanitarian reasons underlie the en-
plOyment in open air work of this sort
wherein and whereby the convicts are
restored to society with their manhood
quickened instead of deadened or de-
stroyed.
Governor eddie of Nevada. who was
instrumental in securing the passage
of the legislation which provides for
convict road work in that state is en-
thusiastic as to the success of the plan:
There is no question" he maintains,
but that the passage of this law has
had a wholesome effect on our prison
system, and has been the means OF
giving a new start in life to a large
proportion of the discharged and pa
rolled men. About 40 per cent. of the
total number of our convicts have been
performing good service under the
honor system at the road camp"
Governor Hanna of North Dakota,
Governor Cox of Ohio and Governor
West of Oregon hold that outdoor work
should be a privilege to be earned by
good conduct: Governor Mann of Nir-
convicts when employed on the roads
and cites figures to prove the economy
of such work, maintaining, however,
that the present cost can be greatly
reduced by placing the men on their
honor and lessening the number of
idle guards; while Governor Mcdonald
of New Mexico and Governor Carey
of Wyoming refer to the few attempts
at escape that have been made by con-
victs practically unguarded.
Governor Hunt of Arizona is in ia
vor of paying the convicts at least
% cents a day for their services as
the cost will be small compared to the
actual benefit derived by the construc-
ton of splendid highways, while the

their full pay regardless Of the fate OF
the league All four also received ad-
vance payments on the contracts.
Weeghman also said other contracts

FEDERAL LEAGUE HACKERS
SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS MEN.
President Gilmore Has Tested Finan-
ciuI Standing of All Franchise Hold
ers and Finds Il Good.

A Chicago special to the New York
World says that the hackers of the
Federal league and the clubs compris-
ing the circuit are men who made big
successes in their lines of business.
President Gilmore has visited every
one of the men, tested the financial
standing of each, and pronounced it
sufficient. With one of two excep-
lions every man still is young in the
business world.
Gilmore himself is a stakeholder in
the Chicago franchise, though he
gave as chief hackers the names of
Charles Weeghman and William NJ
Walker. The former owns ten res
taurants of the popular priced Vari-
ETY., a billiard hall and two moving
picture theaters. He is wealthy.
William Walker Weeghmans part
ner in the Federals, is q man of the
same type, although a bit further ad-
vanced in years. He is conducting a.
fish and oyster business of his own in
South Water street, and IL was in that
business that he gained his wealth.
In st. Louis. Otto StifeI is a million
aire. Controls a brewery and is direc-
tor in several banks.
The newest magnate in the league,
and one of the richest, is Bernard Hep
burn, who recently took Ocver the
Cleveland franchise and will put it in
Toronto. Hepburn is a member Of
the Canadian parliament. His home
is in Picton. Ont..S a small city near
Toronto. In the pioneer days of the
province the Hepburn family became
wealth. by conducting steamboat
lines on the Great Lakes.
indianapolis is backed by J. Edwin
Krause. hotel owner; John A George,
wholesale coal. and z. E. Gates, a
wealthy lawyer.
Over in Buffalo the chief owner is
Walter Mullen, in the real estate bust
ness. Associated with him are r. T.
Carroll, another real estate man and q
former professional ball player and
Owen B. Augsperger lawyer.
Baltimore, another addition to the
Federal leagpe this year, is backed by
three men. two of whom have had
long experience in major league base
ball. One is Ned Hanlon. former Ma
tiona1 league manager in Brooklyn
an Cincinnati. The other practical
man is Harold Goldman, a former
fudge and q man who helped start the
American league when it expanded

two men is John s. Wilson. .Jr, a

for the hard four-mfle race on the
Hudson.
The situation at Pennsylvania and
ale is much alike, in that both col
leges are working with new coaches.
Al New Haven a. trio, composed of
crew; Guy Nichols of England and G.
+. Glannini, recent New York Athletic
Club coach, will direct the work of the
ELL creWmen. At Philadelphia Vivian
Nichols, a brother of Guy, has re-
placed Ellis Ward. and the work Of
these famous English oarsmen who ex-
pect to develop a stroke combining the
best points of both English and Amer
lean systems, will be watched with in
terest. At Harvard. Princeton and the
United States Naval Academy there is
no change in the established order of
coaching and reports from all three
institutions are optimistic.
Return of Confidence In West.
Further west the University of Wis
constn is preparing for another return
to the Hudson with a crew which will
prove fully as dangerous as that. Of
1913. The Badgers are fortunate in
Possessing a. squad Of heavy, powerful
candidates, with the varsity Fights Of
last season. The great sprint in the
final mile of the intercollegiate regat-
ia at Poughkeepsie last June has done
much to restore the confidence of the
western colleges regarding their abil-
ity to row as fast and far as their east
ern brethren. AS a result. Washington,
California, and Stanford. in addition to
Wisconsin. are all looking forward to
the possibility of rowing on the Hud-
son next spring. On the Pasifc Coast
all three university squads are in ac-
tive training and heavy. powerful
Fights are forecasted. The winner of
the Pacific Coast regatta will come
east to PoughkeepsIe, as has been the
case during the past two years. and
there is the bare possibility that all
three may ask for invitation so
strong is the desire to show the east
what the far coast crews can do with
shell and sweep.

Two hundred thousand dollars. Of

Two hundred thousand dollars, of
which indianapolis alone viii contri-
butte one-fourth. is TO be hung uD for
auto racing this year in the United
purses, in the order of their Importance
are as follows: Indianapolis $50, 900,
Seattle $4,000, Sioux City $4,000.
Vanderbilt and Grand Prize $4,000, Los
$4,000. Tacoma s10,5O0 Santa Mon
lea and EIgin $4,000 each, Los An
geles-Phoenix $500, Ell Paso-P Phoenix
s6,400, and Galveston $4,000. The grand
total is s1s!,7oo. Together with minor
events such as the San Diego road
race, and dirt track meets, the figure
of two hundred thousand viii easily
be reached.
A recap itulation of the individual
amounts involved shows that the west.
on the whole, will have the bulge on
the east. But for the Indianapolis
track, the situation would be rather
uncomfortable, as the Sioux city. 81
gin and Galveston events, the only ones
portance, save the Ve-hundred-mile
race, total together only 10000. Tne
Hoosier purse raises this sum to $50
900 and with rich accessory prizes
boosts it $40, 600 more, or to $4,000.
Against this the west has $107.70O TO
offer in straight purses, giving it =
slight advantage, at least financially.
In prestige, of course. there can he no
comparison between eastern and west
ern contests in the eyes of the sport
ing world. The Indianapolis sweep
stakes are considered in a class by
themselves ranking with the Grand
Prix de France and other International
events. The Elgin. likewise, can fairly
claim supremacy, having now for four
consecutive years been staged success
fully on its own course. But for the
tumultuous viciSsitudes of the Wander
belt and Grand Prize, capped by their
lapse last season. no contests would
rank their superior: as matters stand,
however they are shy much prestige.
