The Chinese probably have the greatest variety of gambling games in the world. but it remains for managers and magnates of the big league base ball teams to develop one gamble. which beats them all. IL is in buying new players.
 Thing of it, Larry Chappelle cost S13,500 and Ty Cobb went under the wire for the nominal sum of $500. Rube Marduard cost s11. 500 and was worth it, while Eddie Plank. Chief Bender. and Jack Co0mbs, came to Connie Mack without costing one jitney

Review of Trade


 NEW YORK, Feb. 2S-Dun's Re view tomorrow will say:
 Partial relief from the traffic con gestion has bettered the position of business. though progress in many di- rections continued hindered by the de- lays in transportation Obstacles in overseas shipping also restrict export movements and the doubts about for egn affairs make for general caution in entering upon engagements for the future. Unlike the recent experience. demands are mainly confined to inlne- diate rumors and speculative tenden- cies are discouraged; yet federal con - tracts accentuate the pressure on pro- ducng forces and consumption of staple products is sustained in large volume notwithstanding the high prices. The extreme living costs caused increasing complaint and curtailment of purchasing is more apparent, but the buying power holds up remarkably well and it is noteWorthy that savings deposits are steadily accommodating.
