tackle and landed Schultz, whom he
had tried to purchase from the Pirates
last winter.
The confidence shown in Schultz by
Moran indicates that he still has sew
eral years of major league baseball in
his system, for Moran doesn't take on
flivvers, and he has an uncanny habit
Of nicking off ball players who are cast
aside by other clubs and molding them
into a winning machine.
In all probability Schultz will take
the place of Whitfield or Cravath in
the Philly outfield if he shows signs
of singing the ball in his old-time
form. Schultz is vet, but he is one
of the old-timers who hasn't lost the
snap from his legs. He can still can
ter around the gardens and haul down
the tough ones with as much agility
as many of the cumbersome youngsters
who come up every year. The fact
that Cravath's legs have been troubling
him makes Schultz an asset to the
Phillies, for Cravath can be kept on
bench if Schultz can fill the bill in the
garden, and Gavvy's hitting will be
enlisted in the pinches as usual.
Schultz was teammate Of MOran's
on the old Cub champions and aside
from Evers he is the only member Of
the Cub champions of 1906 who is still
fghtin' off the lusty punches Of Ole
Doc Time.

The White Sox are wearing khaki

Fred Mitchell must have finally con-
WINGED the Cubs that they are a poor

Ty Cobb got five hits in a ball game

Stuffy McInnis still Is hitting all

Grover Alexander was the first box
man in the major leagues to score ten
victories this season.

DUN'S REVIEW

New York, Sept. 21.-Dun's Review
tomorrow will say:
The gain in business with the ads
season is not yet general or
uniform and rather less of 1t is seen
in the east than at other points. Where
none at all appears. or where there is
some actual recession, it Is plainly due
more to uncertainty than to lack of
confidence in the future. At the bot
tom business In various branches has
hesitated because the outlook has been
and still IS more or less clouded and
the tendency to. act with caution in
anticipating forward wants grows in
many quarters. But while the present
policy of conservative purchasing. and
moro largely for immediate and GER
tain needs, contrasts sharply largely
with last years rush to contract far
ahead at almost any figure and is
disappointing to some interests, It is
one which clearly makes for more
wholesome conditions and more stable
progress. The inevitable reaction from
the extreme prices reached during the
time of unprecedented demands has
already gone some distance In certain
OF the chief materials of industry and
the rcadjustments have In some cases
brought with them signs Of rcviving
activity. though not few buyers still
hold off for further concessions by
sellers.
