Swatara's chances of taking the
flag in the City Junior League were
smashed into jelly last evening
when East End took both ends of
doubleheader by the scores of 2-1
and 40.
karmatz, one of the best amateur
twlrlers in the city hurled his fif-
teenth victory for East End only
allowing Swatara six hits in both
games. Just as soon as East End
wins two more games and Swatara
loses one more the remaining
games of the season will probabl
be called off as Swatara would have
no more chances.
Both Teams Score
Both teams scored in the first
inning in the first game, East End
getting the best of the argument by
scoring two runs to Swatara's one
and stiff game was played after
TINS inning and then the pan was
kept clear.
karmatz held Swatara to two
hits the second game and only one
man remained on base when the
sides were retired and this hap
pened in the fourth inning when
Matter singled and stole second.

West End nailed the pennant
tighter last evening when the lead
ers took game from Common
wealth, score to 4. Stricken pitch
ed for the victors and was a big
factor in the victory. WashlngCr
was on the mound for Common
wealth, and had several varieties
of puZz1ing curves, but got a poor
start. 1t might also be said that
his support was not of the best.
Some OF the hits looked like easy
outs, had the fielders made a spc-
cial effort to get under.
The league leaders iced the game
in the opening frame, scoring SIX
runs. Then it was a battle royal.
The Travellers made n desperate eff
fort to come back in the sixth, but
fell short by two runs. 1t was
great battle, featured with real
baseball playing, and West End
showed pionship form at all
times. The Travellers We're some
what crippled, but deserve credit
for the plucky spirit shown through
out the game.
West End Looks Good
Last nights victory makes it al
most certain that West End Will
take this years championship. Tire
/ leaders have but seven games TO
play. Motive Power, runners up, are
scheduled for eight more games and
must win every battle. Only four
games separate them from the lead
ers. There is every indication that
all games from now until the close
of the season will be real battles.

Market and Industrial News of the Day
Trading and Advance Of
Corn Features Market

Chicago. Nov. s.--Rapid advances which
took place this week in the value OF corn
came to a large extent from the fact that
readily available supplies were clearly in
adequate. Despite subsequent reactions,
the corn market this morning as COM
pared with a week ago was 3N to IN
cents higher. whereas oats were virtually
unchanged. Provisions showed a rise of
10 to 80 cents
Meagerness of receipts and continued
scarcity of cars tended to make buyers of
corn unusually persistent during the first
part Of the week and to bring about steep
upturns In price. Uneasiness about pros
pective difficulties in filling contracts for
December delivery was an especial bullish
factor and was intensified by the ending
Of the longshoremen's strike and by wet
weather. which delayed farm work.
Besides, estimates were current that
farm stocks Of old corn totaled the small
est aggregate ever known before except
in 1917. Toward the last OF the week.
however, bearish sentiment was more or
less renewed owing to assertions that car
shortage had been somewhat diminished
and by notice that the permit system for
rural shippers would be abolished on Mon
day.
Increased rural offerings and stoppage
Of coal for n-American-owned ships
made the oats market relatively weak.
Provisions assembled with hogs and corn.

Most of the farmers in the sec

sect to see corn bring Sl.40 to 81. ~
Al bushel before the cattle-feeding
rason is over, according to II. 4.
Rowlans of Oakland, who was a
visitor at the stock yards Satur-
day.
Rowlans said the estimate of a
large corn yield in his section was
too high and that late figure show
a decrease of IT least third. In
some localities the yield has gone
below normal, with only from 80
to 40 bushels.
"The cost of feeding cattle is 60
ing to be an important factor i'll my
section, as large number have
been brought in, which will make 4
broad demand for corn, far above
the local supply. In some instances
The call for corn for feed has been
so great that the product has. been
bought far in advance Of the har-
vest for a price to b. fixed after
the yield.
"The scarcity and high price OF
corn is going to be the chief factor
in the hog industry, and if hog
prices do not go up there will oe
large influx of unfinished hogs
poured into the market, as farmers
will be unwilling to risk the ex-
pense of high priced corn for heavy
stock and will send in their lighter
weights"

Erratic Movement Of Money
Market Marks Weeks Trading

New York. Nov. s.-All other consider
atons of a feverishly active week on the
stock exchange were subordinated to the
cratic movements of the money market.
Even the important political and financial
events of that period were eclipsed by me
spectacular course of call loans and the
firmer tendencies manifested by other
forms of accommodations.
TIE action of the federal reserve pank
in advancing rates of rediscount was at
tended by renewed warnings against the
diversion of credits for stock market uses
and the rise in the Bank of England
rate the first in more than two and one
half years, was regarded as equally Sig
nifcant.
Heavy calling of loans by local banks
occasioned several drastic reactionary
movements In stocks. but in majority of
cases. substantial recoveries were made.
Extensive purchases OF rails. evidently
predicted on the assumption that favor
able federal legislation will accompany
their return to private ownership at the
end of the year, was one of the most re-
assuring features of the week.
Successful f.otation Of tie $25o,0oo,o0o
British loan and the 100000 French
municipal offering pointed anew to the
inherent soundness of the investment
situation. even though Liberty bonds and
existing International issues were irregu-

Further weakness of rates on Italy
constituted the chief drawback in the
foreign exchange market, remttances to

The same shares which suffered great

actions were again singled out for pres

recorded extreme declines of to
points.
In a number of cases lowest quotations
of the week were made and among some
of the more speculative issues recent ad-
mnces Of to 20 points were effaced.
Rails and shippings were carried down

greater recuperative power than any other
part CT the active list.
