STOCK MARKET
HAS WEAK TONE
Raiders Upset Quotations
And Then Buy Back
For Firm Close.
By BRoADAN WALL.

New York. July 1o-Hogs made
their daily new high record today.
but the call money market was more
respectable. The nationwide criti-
cism OF the Federal Reserve Bank
action Is having its effect. The high
rates have already hurt the market,
and 1t was irregular today as a re-
suit. Some said the weakness that
developed in the afternoon was due
to the Presidents address to the Sen
ate. but that could not be true as his
speech was distinctly constructive in
tone.
The weakness was due to a profess
sional raid melted by the Federal
bank Encouragement of the circula-
ton. 1t failed to bring out much
stock. and later in the day the raiders
turned and bought their stocks back.
The close was strong with new high
records in several issues. Even those
that did not recover their losses en-
tirely were coming back strong when
the gong rang.
Marine shares were leaders. espec-
tally the common. and there is good
reason for the advance this time.
Increase of the United States Steel
Corporation tonnage OF unnlled or
ders for the past month is $4,000 tons.
That is no surprise. but it meets
expectations and proves that the in
dustry Is recovering sharply. The
copper industry Is coming up with
it: so Is zinc. These are basic in
'dustries whose revival cannot be
ignored by the stock market
Food stocks were in good demand,
owing to the splendid crop report of
yesterday.
Central Foundry on the Exchange
and Iron Products on the Curb were
well bought, for apparently the mer-
ger Is going through promptly.
The shorts in Pierce-Arrow also COW
cred precipitately. The stock moved
up more than points. and is now
higher than 1t was when the dividend
was cut
October cotton came within a few
points of IS cents a pound. The recent
weakness in the option market was
technical. The crop outlook is not
such as to justify expectations OF
lower prices for regular business.

WHEAT OF BROOKLYN
Is NATURAL BATTER
sIugger crouches, Shifts Feet
and Kicks Up Much Dirt
Has Decidedly Awkward Motions
While at Bat, But Is in Position to
Hit AnyW:lere-He Is Called
Free Swinger.

What is the difference between form
and style? In other words, what is
the difference between natural pro-
pensity to do the right thing in sport
and the doing of that thing in an easy
and graceful fashion? asks Thomas
s. Rice, baseball critic on the Brooklyn
Eagle.
We have discoursed upon Heinie
zimmerman as the naturally easy and
graceful ball player, and have given
him credit for the game. Now come
we to a distinguished athlete who is
very much different. The same is Fac.
cheus D. Wheat, left fielder of the
Brooklyn Superbas.
Zimmerman would delight the golfer,
because Zim keeps his feet in precise
" the theoretical position for doing
the best work. Zach stands we'll up to
the plate, but has decidedly awkward
motions while there. He shifts his
feet, crouches a bit, kicks the dirt
from behind him-and hits the ball
better than Zim. How come? The ex-
perts on golf form would wag their
heads at the sight of Zach, or duck
their heads out of the way of one CT
his terrific smashes.
But the graceful and easy stuff does
not fool the old-time baseball player or
manager any more than does the
awkward stuff. Uncle Wilbert Rob-
inson of the Brooklyn Superbas says
Wheat is one of the most natural bat
tiers he ever beheld.
"You can tell he is batter as soon
as he steps to the plate" says Uncle
Wilbert. "Zach's every movement of the
shoulders and arms is well timed. He
may kick up some dirt and give the
groundkeeper unnecessary labor, but as
soon as the ball starts toward him you
can see that his limbs are free. That
Is, he is in position to hit anywhere
If the occasion arises.
"Wheat is called freeswinger, and,
being left-hanGed, has natural ten
dency to pull to the right"

Documents Found in Germany
Reveal Complete Plans.
Secret Spartacan Circular Urges Agl
tztion Among the Noske
Home Guards.

Berlin.-A complete and carefully
drawn plan to overthrow the present
government and further world revolu-
ton Is contained in secret Spartacan
circular to its agents and district
chiefs.
The document. which was secured
by the general bureau for the study
Of bolshevism," begins by regretting
that the government signed the peace
treaty, thereby delaying the inevitable
crisis.
The document speculates on various
possible developments and then sets
forth a concrete plan, the first step Of
which would be to hasten an internal
German crisis by tampering with the
home guards of Gustav Noske, minis
ter of defense, which are declared to
be- less reliable than formerly.
The circular urges Spartacan organ
izations to agitate among the soldiers
by leaflets and verbally.

who, though the name of Islay Will
teach the deepest chords in their
hearts, will never be able to visit 1t

DAVENPORT GOOD AS ORATOR
Tall Pitcher Never Lost Opportunity
to Tell His Mates How to Win
Baseball Games.

Dave Davenport, besides being the
tallest man in baseball, possesses the
greatest line Of chatter In diamond cir
cles. Dave Is quite some talker. He
talks himself into the reputation of be-
ing the greatest clubhouse pitcher In
the American league, according to one
Of his fellow players with the Browns.
It was habit with Fielder Jones to
hold a meeting In the clubhouse just
before going out on the field. Fielder
would talk over with his men about
the weak points of the opposition and
tell the pitcher he intended using
where to pitch to each man.
After Fielder had finished his ora
ton Dave would Immediately get on
the "old soap box" as the players say,
and tell how he baffled this and that
player with certain shoots. Dave sell
