great throw to first, retiring Myers.

After the race was over the stew

Kid Tricks Cost Athletics q Game.

Chicago, July 14.-Dilatory tactics
m attempts to have the game called
on account of rain cost Philadelphia
the second game Of the series with
Chicago today, the locals winning, 6
to l. The game was started five min
utes early to beat the rain. Chicago
was leading by two runs when the
roar of thunder inspired the visitors
to use almost every means known to
baseball to delay the game before the
legal number of innings were played.
In the fourth Pitcher Bush did not at
tempt to put a bah over the plate, yet
the local batsmen swung in order to
hurry the game Faber was hit by
one of these wild throws and jaunted
to first. He continued around the
bases and scored the run which in
the end proved to be the winning tall

TRIO OF LIeHTWEIeHTs.
Richie, White and Welsh All in Line
For the LaureIs.

1t has been one year since Freddie
Welsh, the recognized worlds champion
lightweight, won his title from Willie
Richie in a London ring. The decis-
ion after 20 rounds was one Of Eugene
Corri's close ones, which was not ap-
proved Of by a majority of the specta-
tors. The margin OF difference while
in Welsh's favor, wes not sufficient, in
the Judgment OF the writer, to warrant
a worlds title changing hands. 1t
pleased the 1900 enthusiasts from
Cardiff and other towns in Wales, who
occupied an entire section Of seats at
Olympia, but Corrfs verdict met with
general condemnation from the British
sportsmen who, like Americans, want
to see decisive victories. However,
tor, and the glory Is all he got out
of the battle at that time, for Richie
was shrewd enough to get all the
money. His purse, $4,000, was de-
posted in New York before he sailed
for London, and he sold his interest
in the moving pictures for $4,000
more. The receipts of the contest
were less than s22, 900, and the ex-
penses of staging the bouts aggregated
81 900, so you can readily see where
the promoters came in. AS for Welsh,
for the sake of getting a crack at
Ritchie for the title In a London ring,
he was willing to gamble, and for that
matter sacrifice everything-which he
did, excepting the championship The
next day at the Waldorf Hotel he
threw few shillings on the cafe table

ATToRNEYs-AT-LAW
COLONIAL LEAGUE DROPS
$4,000 TO GET GOING
Now Il Does Not Pay and Is Claimed
10 Be Behind.

While putting q. new ribbon in tie
cid machine In anticipation of having
eome real use for 1t soon they have
been figuring how much Bannwart has
no doubt but what Alex Of Providence
has spent about $4,000 getting the
Colonial league where it Is this year.
And now it is not paying. A conserva-
tive estimate would place the league
salaries up to date at $1,000. Just
think Of when Clarkin's club cost any
where from 81, 500 to So, 900 for salaries.
ALMOST half of what the entire Colo
NAL league draws. says the Hartford
Courant.
The grounds for the league, a month,
cost about $1,000. at the outside. 1t
has cost the clubs about 500 for a
three day trip, all expenses included
and it certainly seems as If $4,000
would cover the expenses for the eight
clubs up to Sunday. Well, If Hartford
receipts for the same period, have not
reached $1,000, the bets are Off. With
Springfield and New Haven doing
about as well these three cities would
have covered expenses and left the
remaining clubs to make the profits
Yes, Bannwart claims the league is
behind. Any sort of good management
would have pulled the Colonial league
nloug this season and, if Ward drifts
around the circuit to interview the
business managers and others inter-
ested, he will soon see where he has
been somewhat of a fish. The Colo
NAL league, instead of being an alb
breviated, almost down and out or
ganization at the present time should
be a f1ourishing eightclub circuit with
the 1915 prospects so bright as tc
cause the Wards apprehension con-

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STOCK MARKET.
New High Prices Recorded by So
Called Munitions Issues.

New York, July 14.-To a greater
extent than before. today's stock mar
ket was governed by the course of the
war contract or munition issues. This
group absorbed the major portion of
speculative attention, with new high
prices for American Can at 81, Stude-
baker at 50 7-8, Baldwin Locomotive
at II Ia, General Motors at 1872 1-2,
and WHY'S at 1876. Other
stocks in the same class rose two to
four points, the most conspicuous ex-
ception being American Coal Products,
which forfeited six points of its recent
sensational advance.
Meantime representative investment
stocks were either neglected or under
moderate pressure United States Steel
was the only leader to rank with war
specialties in point of activity, but
failed to equal it's best quotation of the
previous day. Reading, Canadian Pa
cific and .Amalgamated Copper reacted
more or less on steady selling. New
features of strength were seen in such
utilities as Western Union and Con-
solidated Gas. the former advancing
almost three points on intimationS
that the semi annual statement to be
issued tomorrow will show a Substan-
tial net increase in earnings. Trade
developments were distinctly favorable
to the steel industry, further price ad-
vances being announced by some of the
leading mills. Lackawanna SteeIs
quarterly statement. disclosing a net
increase of over 100000. explains the
recent improvement in that stock.
Following it's usual custom, the mar
ket shaded generally in the final deal
ings when the demand for most of the
specialties showed signs of having run
its course, for a time at least. The
closing was irregular, with some slight
net losses, notably in Canadian Pa
cific, Southern Pacific and Reading.
