LATE DEVELOPMENTS IN THE LOCAL SPORT WORLD
PRINTER TEAM WINS.
'EIFTHSTRAIGHT GAME.
Defeated Midwest Last
Evening By a Score
of Seven to One.

A victory over the Midwest team
last evening at South Side park put
the rejuyenated West virgtnian tribe
notch higher in the league standing.
The scalp for the printers yesterday
Due to the fact that some of the
evening makes the fifth consecutive
victory.
Midwest players were little late in
getting on the field. the game was
delayed a few minutes. McDougal. a
new man, formerly with the owens
team made his appearance for the Mid
West yesterday evening and started
the pitching. Hamilton showed up
before many innings had been played
and worked on the mound for the
rest of the game.
Both pitchers did good work, allow
ing but five hits in AL, the same
number made by the Midwest team

GAME TOMORROW
Second of Annual Series to
Be Played at Traction
Park.

When Umpire Clyde Toothman
calls PLAY Ball" at Traction Park
tomorrow afternoon the Idamay and
Monongah teams will take the field.
for the second OF their three annual
baseball games. The game is sche-
duled to begin sharply at $3.50 p. m.
The keenest rivalry is always
manifested between Idamay and
Monongah due to the fact that both
teams have been strong for the past
several years and have been the OPP
ponents Of each other in their fight
for the Marion county championship.
Should either team win the game
tomorrow and then turn around and
lose all their remaining games of the
season would feel that their 1919
baseball season had been a success
full one.
Several weeks ago the Idamay
team came to Traction park for a
game and was defeated by a small
margin in an unusually good game.
Tomorrow the Idamay team will be
at its best as will the Monongah nine,
in an effort to cop the game.

estimates. while many authorities in the
trade are predicting a crop In excess OF
5000, 100, 900 bushels.
Conditions throughout the belt as far
as weather was concerned were mostly
good, temperatures were moderate and
with the exception Of some dry areas
in Kansas II Is generally believed that
the crop has received sufficient moisture.
Barring early frosts, a good sized crop
of good quality will be produced. The.
prospects in Iowa could hardly ba inn
proved. Reports from the Northwest are
excellent and the Southern corn crop
has been made with bumper prospects.
Estimates on the Texas crop are as
high as aoo,ooo.ooo bushels, or $4,000
600 more than year ago, and the Lone
star States production Is being offered
freely daily at reduced prices, and has had
tendency to weaken the congested con-
ditions of the Western cash corn market,
During the week there was q sharp
break In hog prices and extreme weak
ness In foreign exchange. which weak
ened the buying power and caused con-
siderable liquidation.
Visible stocks of corn are the smallest
at this time Of the year on record, but
the Indications point to an increase IN
the movement. and the chances Of build
ing UP good stock of corn appear
favorable,
There has been little feature to the
trade In oats. the market following the
action In corn. Sentiment was mixed.
A tendency still Is evident among the
trade to reduce crop estimates as re-
ports from the Northwest are unfavora-
BILE, and due 10 the poor quality OF the
new grain predictions of increased farm
consumption have been current
The weather. however. has been favor
able generally for harvest, and the weak
ness in foreign exchange has been a seri-
Gus hamper to export buying. In some
quarters predictions are made that the
exports this year will not be half those
of last, and foreign crop advices have
been of a more favorable tenor.
Leading exporters are of the opinion

BUYERS OF COTTON
GOODS HOLD BACK
Desire to FOrestall Advances
and Expect Lower Prices
Later.

Cotton goods markets in first hands
have ruled quiet. Some mills have eX-
pressed a Willingness to meet recent de-
clines in price resulting from second
hand selling where staple print clota
constructions and some sheetings are
involved.
Buyers as a rule have ceased to anti
cipate their wants to forestall advances,
and many are expecting to buy at lower
prices later Selling agents for mills
declare that they have ample orders In
hand and are not pressing for new ousl-
ness. The general view of the market
is that trading will continue light until
after the holiday.
Gingham manufacturers are assisting
in preparing for stimulating retail sales
throughout the country during Gingham
Week next month. Branded goods sold
through the jobbing trade have showed
little or no price change as mills nave
few goods to sell and as rule are re-
naming out of the market for future
business.
Production is being curtailed in con-
sequence of vacations among operatives.
The decline in cottonl tho unsettled busi-
ness conditions and the agitation against
the high cost of living are doing much
toward increasing the desire of mer-

WESTERN UNION IS
ACCUSED BY RIVAL
Makes Postal Co. Pay Cash
for Certain Messages.

ALBANY, ". Y, Aug. 23.-The Postal
Telegraph Gable Company to-day filed
formal complaint with the Public Service
Commission against the Western Union
Telegraph Company because Of the re-
fusal of the latter to accept messages
fled by the Postal company with the
Western Union for exclusive Western
Union points unless cash is paid there
for.
Prior to August 1 the Western Union
company allowed the Postal company a
charge account on such messages, the
same as II does with all other customers
and the same as the Postal company has
always allowed the Western Union on
messages transferred by the latter to
the Postal.
On August 1, however. when the Pos
tai company reduced the telegraph rates
by 20 per cent. the Western Union COM
pany in retaliation for this cut off the
privilege OF the charge recount to the
Postal company and the Western Union
company will now accept no messages
from the Postal company unless cash is
paid for each message as filed and will
not accept messages delivered TO the
Western Union by a Postal messenger
even though the messenger is sent direct
by the customer to the Western Union
office, unless cash is paid therefor.

GRAIN PRICES HIT BY
AGITATION ON COST.
Corn, Oats, Pork, Lard and
Ribs Feel Big Movement
in Washington.
CROP ESTIMATES GO UP
Exporters Are Worried by
Conditions in Foreign Ex-
change Market.

The weeks Developments In the grain
and provision markets have been another
break In corn. hogs and provisions. In
huenced by the broadening activities
at Washington against the high cost Of
living and a general slackening of con-
suminE demand In expectation of further
reduction In values due TO the campaign
against high prices. Corn In some cases
reached new low levels for the season
and hog products were on $40 barrel
on pork from the seasons high, 5 to
cents pound on lard and 5 cents on
ribs. Interest in the markets was on
a much smaller scale and prices at
times rallied sharply, due 10 the over
sold condition OF the various markets.
The most important development In
corn for the week was further tend
ency TO increase crop estimates. Private
trade papers estimated the crop as high
as 2.so0,ooo,ooo bushels, or some aoo.-
100000 bushels more than their previous
