GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, July 6.-Attempts to curb
high prices by stopping all trade In the
July delivery on corn resulted today in
a general rush to buy September option
and other distant deliveries. The con.
sequence was fresh jump in values to
new high record levels for the season
Scarcity of offerings caused the ad-
vance to be rapid, with no sign OF
halt until the market was up Sc from
yesterdays finish, a rise of NC since the
close on Monday.
Reports of urgent export and distil-
lery demand and of virtual exhaustion
Of country reserve supplies did much to
stir up bullish sentiment. Opening pri-
ces, which ranged 1-S off to Ia advance
with September at /. 55 1-2 to 1.57 and
December at LIS IL to 1.16 "a, were
followed by a slight reaction and then
a sharp general upturn.
Reports subsequently that foreign in
terests had withdrawn from the mar
ket, led to a decided setback. The close
was weak at the same as yesterdays

to 154% and Dec. 1.141s 20 1.14A.

New York Market


New York, July 6.-There was a re-
newal of scattering liquidation at the
opening Of the cotton market today
and first prices showed a decline of 2
to 10 points. Liverpool, however, SEEM
ed to be the chief seller and as soon as
the initial offerings had been absorbed,
the market turned firm on reports that
rains in the southwest had not been suf-
ficient
October contracts quickly rallied from
24.43 to 24.72, while December sold up
from 24.60 to PASS, with the active
months selling some 10 to 20 points
above last nights closing.
Covering for the weekend was a fac
tor on the advance, while there also APP
peared to be a moderate demand from
trade sources, and offerings were COM
paratively light after the overnight or
ders had been executed.
There appeared to be very few sell
ers around the ring during the middle
OF the afternoon and the market show
ed increasing strength on covering and
moderate demand from trade sources
October contracts sold up to 2510 and
December to 1924, with the general list
showing a net advance of 65 to 81
points.
For the fourth week in succession 9
minus correction of over 10000 bales
was reported in the local stocks, lead
ing to an impression that cotton was
moving out more rapidly than suggested
by the daily figures.

FEW SHORT BASEBALL GAMES
Pastimes of Nine Full Innings Played
In Less Than an Hour Are Scarce
Some Instances.

Nine-inning pastimes pulled Off In
less than an hour are rather rare, but
not quite so scarce as hens mQlars.
The first game of this kind was pulled
Off In Dayton, o., 50 years ago, when
Dayton and IrOntOn hustled through
regulation contest In AZ minutes. That
was considered n very remarkable per-
Torrance. and would be yet, for that
matter, although the game Is must fast.
er now than 1t was In 1884. .,.
In the early days of baseball-the
era of big scOres--it was by no means
unusual for a pastime to drag out
through three or four hours. The
classic of that kind was staged ut
CarrOlltOn, KY, In 1868, when n game
commenced ut ten In the morning was
called on account of darkness In the
late evening, with only seven innings
played!
San Francisco and Oakland equaled
the Dayton record for brevity In 1893.
In 1899 an American professional club
touring Japan defeated a college nine
in Tokyo in 40 minutes. The profess
siOnal record was set up In Atlanta just
six years ago, Mobile defeating the
home club to /, In 32 minutes. Chap
pelle was In the box for the
victOPs, and Griffin twirled for Atlanta.
Mobile got six hits and Atlanta five.
The score was tied In the ninth in
ming, when Mobile got over the win
ming run.

RUNNERS LOSE TIME
How Much Two.Fifths Of a Sec.
ond Affects Safe Hitting.
Pitcher Ed Reulbaeh Tells Of Bats.
man Who Failed to Beat Out Hit
by Turning to See How Short
stop Was Fielding Ball.

In the Baseball Magazine Ed Reul-
bach has an article disclosing how
much two-fifths of a second affects safe
hitting. We quote in part from his
magazine story.
"Out," yelled the umpire. The base
runner ran hard. He dug his spikes
into the ground and hurled himself mt
the bag. But the ball beat him out in
the race by perhaps One-fifth OF a
second.
The infielders tighten their belts,
clap their hands to their gloves and
call to one another. "Thnt's the boy
get the next one now" They are on
their toes, alert, spirited, eager. The
base runner, hopping his face. ambles
back to the dugout and takes his place
dejectedly on the bench. Perhaps
f. someone asks him why he didn't beat
the ball. He answers CURLY thdt he
ran his best. There Is general feel
ing that he did run hard under the
circumstances, and interest speedily
centers In the next play.
That play Is repeated at least ten
times In an average game, but before
, we dismiss It let's see just what hap.
! pened. The batter had hit the ball
Chicago eagle. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1889-19??, 1917-04-07

rather sharply to deep short field. The
shortstop had to sprint several feet to
his right In order to stop the ball.
Then he had to recover his balance
and set himself for long, hard throw.
All this took time and although the ball
went straight and true into the first
baseman's init, It took large frac.
ton Of second to travel across that
intervening space. The batter made
quick getaway from the plate. Hall
the success of beating a throw Is In
getting a good start. He was reason
ably fast man and he ran well. But
he knew when he hit the ball that
he had no time to spare. He was GU
riOus to see II the shOrtstop field
ed the ball clean and just what were
his chances Of beating out the Throw,
This curiosity led him to cast one look
out across the diamond TO Whsrs tie

and although he did not cease running
lin that one look, he, 'invOluntarily
jslackeped his speed. How much time
did he Loser Probably ut least two.
fifths of a second, and that robbed
him of a hit and perhaps robbed his
teammates Of the victory.
