Dodgers Deal
AHeavy Blow
To Old Matty
Rube Marquard by His Fine
Pitching Puts Reds
to Rout

Cincinnati, July 30.-Uncle Wilbert
Robinson and his champion Dodgers hit
Porkville this afternoon like a Kansas
cyclone and left in the wake a lot Of
ruin and desolation so far as Redland
pennant hopes were concerned.
Brooklyn, looked upon as sure step
pirg stone for Matty's Reds TO climb
back into the swim and second place,
hammered Jimmy Ring out Of the box
in the third inning and cincned a game
that was finally won by score Of TO
8. This rebuff was all the more bitter
to Rhineland fandom because the bull
letined story of the scoreboard showed
that the Giants were going down be-
fore the Pirates.
Marquard at His Best
Rube Marquard pitched for the cham
pions. He was in old-time form and
once his team mates got him q working
margin was never seriously pressed.
The Reds could do little with this
southpsW's offerings, but were fortu-
nate enough 20 hit for extra bases
when they did hit.
Cincinnati's late runs were secured
after Mar4uard had the game cinched.
That of the second, which was the first
score CT the game, came from Griftth's s
triple and Thorpe's sacrifice fly.
There were double plays in profu-
SiCn Olson, who started the game
with a single, was doubled off first
base when Daubert fouled TO Wingo.
Wingo hit into a double play after
Shean had walked with one out in the
second. The pass to Shean came just
after Thorpe's long fly had scored a
run and when Marquard seemed a bit
nervous.
A double play against the Dodgers
In the eighth inning broke up rally
that threatened half dozen of runs
instead of the two scored. Groh
tagged Stengel, going to third and then
got the ball to Chase ahead of John
ston.
Dodgers Win in Third
Brooklyn broke up the game in the
third. Chief Meyers doubled and took
third on Marquard's single. Olson's
single scored lthe Indian. Daubert
forced Olson, but Hi Myers singled,
tallying Marquard. Stengel flied out,
but Johnston's single scored Daubert
from second. Hi Myers was caught at
the plate on an attempted double steal.
In the eighth, with one gone, Daubert
was hit by Eller. Jake took third on
Hi Myers's single. Griffith made a
poor throw to third; when the ball
rolled into Cincinnati's dugout, Dau-
bert scored and Myers reached third.
Stengel beat bunt to Chase, counting
Myers. Then Casey stole second. He
was doubled with Johnston when Groh
killed Jimmy's bid for a base hit.
This secoao rally settled Cincinnati's
fate. Kopf ard Roush punched triples
for run in thar half of the eighth,
but Brooklyn came right back with two
more in the ninth.

NEW YORK, Feb 16.-Traders were again in sole possession of the market today and in part reversed their atti- tude of the preceding session, covering short contracts on the more encouraG- ing developments overnight. Chief among these was the action taken by the leading transportation lines to re- lieve freight congestion.
 Conditions in Mexico and Cuba also were regarded with less apprehension. Steamship issues eVinced some relax ation of recent pressure on the more satisfactory outlook for that industry, and meals responded to reports of further inquiries for the refined product from home and abroad
 Of the more popular stocks United States Steel pursued the narrowest course moving within radius of ls points and closing at net gain of a point. Coppers and shipping fluctuated at extreme gains of l to 5 points, the Texas company making d gross ad vance of | points.
