Buyers have been compaliuins for over
a week that local fat lamb values were
too high as compared with other markets,
but have been unable to force enough

Trade dragged through the greater part
of the forenoon with almost nothing NOV

Feeding lambs opened on a steady basis
one Of the first sales being that OF a
CHOICE string carrying liberal spr INK y

however, there was a weaker tendency,
and while prices on the whole held up
fairly well trade was by no means steady

lambs went at SS.25GS IS, with q few
around $50 There was the usual good
demand for ewes OF all sorts.
Fat ewes again made up the bulk of
the mutton supply but offerings were of
a limited nature, and prices showed prac-
tically no change. Choice ewes made

The supply OF good beef at this point

to bring $40. but there was little bunch

Good COWS and heifers were scarce and

six rounds in Grand Rapids, Mich,
and at the end a draw was the log
ical verdict. Each man did a mass of
fighting in the Is minutes, and there
was not a second of the encounter
when either backed up or broke
ground.
Chip is a battIer and a mixer. He
is short on. science and long on kick.
But to Clabby's credit it must be said
the Hammond man matched him at
his own game. He met Chip in the
center of the ring time after time and
snapped the best he had in the lock-
er. In the final round Chip started
out in front, Clabby being on the de-
fensive. Suddenly Jimmy emerged
from his shell and shot over a hard
left. Chip was rocked and the Ham
mond pride followed with a duplicate
blow. The WaIlOps took cot of steam
out of Chip.
Each man had the edge in one
round and four were even.
William Huey finally went down to
defeat in the international three
cushion billiard tourney. Charley FL
lis of Cleveland turned the trick, so
to Al, and played marvellous billiards
to do it, going out in 81 innings. In
the 49th inning Ellis, trailing, ran
eight, and followed with a count of
eleven, giving him safe lead.
Daily defeated JeVne, so to SO, and

man, Moore and Huey, Lean and De

Batting against the Cuban pitchers
has not benefited the Cub players.
The islanders are not anywhere near
big league form and the curves are
so soft that the athletes are handi-
capped when sent against the art Of

Bresnahan is anxious for the OPP

against his young men, as he wants
to try out McLarTy and Williams
against twiTlers who fling with the
off mitt. Each can still learn a lot
about batting against this brand Of
pitching.
All indications point to a team in
excellent physical condition when the
Cubs reach the home lot to shoot
open the season with the St. Louis
|. Cardinals. Bresnahan has not been
lenient with his hired men and they
have been driven hard in an effort to
point them for a. flying start in the
campaign. For the first few weeks
of the season the west siders will
