FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS UNSETTLED.
If Opened Strong, But a Reaction
 Came Quickly.

| New York, Sept. 21-FollowinS the lead of the copper. shares, which were stimulated by the announcement that a price of 2s 1-2- cents for the metal khad been agreed upon, the stock mar ket at the opening today gave the best exhibition of strength of any
 time since the turn of the market
 came on Wednesday. Quotations
 of 1 to 2 points for many shares in
 the first few minutes of trading. A
 reaction came quickly, however, and
 the market was depressed below yes-
 terday'S last figures. During the
 greater part of the session movements
 were narrow and irregular, but to-
 ward the close renewed strength ap
 peared and the advance was resumed
 energetically. Total sales were 665,-
 900 shares.
 The price fixed for copper was re- garded as satisfactory, not only be-
 cause it put an end to fears of a se- but because of the favorable infer ences which might be drawn in regard to the settlement of similar produc- ing questions. That the market did not show better sustained strength under the influence of the announce ment probably was due to the fact that it's effect was largely discounted by the recent rise. The continued ab- sence of outside interest, which even the marked change for the better in the last few days has failed to stim- ulate to any appreciable extent, linn ited the buying power of the market and made it sensitive to profit taking sales.
 The coppers developed pronounced strength on the late upturn, with a gain of 5-S for Smelling. Steel shares also were active and strong There were few weak spots among the industrials, including motor and zinc shares. Railroads as heretofore were neglected. Canadian Pacific was heavy. l
 There was an unusually active de- l mand for Liberty bonds, which sold 1 at a premium for the first time in | lO0.O2
 The general bond market was heavy, 1 with further weakness in investment l issues. Total sales (par value) l B, ,560,00 U. S. bonds were un- changed on call.

1t as hard as possible to tag them, is responsible for the growing practice of handicapping themselves at first base. Instinctively. when runner going to first sees the play will be close, he makes up his mind to slide the same as at any other base
 It has cost many runner a life which he might have gained by sprint ing across the base at top speed Many decisions at first are by the wink of an eyelash consequently the loss of a small part of a second is enough to turn the scale. Also the umpire some times is confused by the slide and makes the wrong decision because he expects the runner to flash past the bag instead of sliding

Sisler-the Years Sensational Batter
 By Geo. SiSIer

Sisler is easily the batting sensa-
 tion of the year. We are used to
 Ty Cobb and Iris Speaker but
 when a young fellow on the Browns starts to burning up the circuit we all sit up and take notice. In the October Baseball Magazine the star first sacxer makes few sage comments as follows:
 Perhaps I am hitting just at present beyond my normal stride" but I hope not. l have always wanted to be a true three hundred hitter. I have even come a three fifty hitter. No doubt all batters who are a little new at the game, and who are lucky enough to get away to a good start, have sim liar ambitions and perhaps my own. will fade away when the pace gets hotter. But I repeat I hope not.
 At that, my record so far, hasn't been unalloyed good luck. Early in the season I was going a good deal better, I suppose, than I have any right to ex- pect when l sprained my thumb. At the time as I remember it, I was lead ing the league. Cobb hadn't got start ed yet and Speaker. while travelling at a fast clip, was experiencing a little hard luck Perhaps that sprained thumb was only a good alibi for of course I might have s1umped anyway. But for all that the thumb in itself kept me from hitting much above a hundred for a good long while.
 I was out of the game only two days on account of the sprain but perhaps would have been just as well off if I had stayed little longer. I got back into the harness because the club needed me and because of a sprained thumb. But for all that the thumb
