SHARP BREAK In WHEAT
AND CORN MARKET
Downturn Started in Acute
Depression in Sterling
Exchange.

Chicago. Sept. 14.--Big break in the
price OF wheat. corn and oats took place
today, started by acute depression OF
sterling exchange. Wheat dropped as
much as . 1-2 bushel and closed semi
demoralized at the bottom figure OF the
day, $3.50 ga to $2.40 for the December
delivery and 1886 IL for March.
The smash in prices carried corn down
pa and oats SIS. Shutting down OF
several food manufacturing plants added
to depression and so too did reports that
on instruction from Eurpe seabord wheat
exporters had suddenly withdrawn from
the market
Besides. there were Indications that
rural holders of corn were liquidating
influenced by prospects OF huge crop.
'rhe greater part of the decline came
just before the market closed. Prices
tumbled rapidly in the absence OF any
aggressive support.

Bill Brennan
May Meet Champ

Milwaukee, Wis Aug. 10.-Why all
the dazzling offers to Billy AIiske TO
meet Jack Dempsey at Benton Harbor,
Mich. Labor day? The statement that
Dempsey is to bet $4,000 and AIiske
S25,0OO sounds good to the fighters,
but not to the publicl Bill Brennan
would sound much better. II is true
Misle has fought Dempsey twice. but
Jack was kind TO Billy at St Paul,
according to reports. Since then Billy
has been laid up with a bad hip and
he surely has not improved in his
work He may put up q good fight
as good IS any OF the heavies around
here just now, Tut as q championship
contender he viii not be taken too
seriously. II Miske gets 20 percent
Of the receipts at Benton Harbor he
viii be fortunate, as 1t is a cinch
Dempsey viii demand close to so per
cent for his end Promoter Fitzsim-
mons viii no doubt offer that much
in percentages, but $4,000 in guaran-
tees with privileges-well hardly. At
that there viii be lots Of interest in
the contest and the open air arena
VIII no doubt be packed. There viii
be little betting, however, as Demp-
sey viii be prohibitive favorite.

Six Hits In One
Game Very Rare

New York. Aug 10.-Kour Uncle
Wilbert Robinson. whose countenance
shines up with a wide grin because
OF the fine showing the Dodgers have
been making. holds a baseball record
that probably viii stand for long,
long time.
When Davey Bancroft, peppery lit
tie shortstopper Of the Giants, got six
safe smashes in as many trips to the
plate in q recent game, the figure
hounds dove into the dust-begrimmed
records TO ascertain how many times
such a feat had been performed IN
the past When they came up for
air they brought with them the in
formation that Davey's stunt had
been performed Il times
Half a dozen hits in one pastime by
one player is a whole lot OF knocks,
but your Uncle Wilbert, who, in his
day. was as good a catcher as ever
drew on a mitt. has done better.
Back in 1882 Robinson was catching
for the old Baltimore Orioles. On
June 10 OF that year, in a game at
st. Louis, Robby came to the platter
seven times, and collected a double
and six singles of the chucking Of
Cy Young, Theo Breitenstein and
"Pretzel" Getzein. The Orioles won
the game by the inspiring score OF
Is to 4.

UpheaVaI Coming
In Big Leagues

New York. Aug. 1o.-An Upheaval
apparently is due in both major
league standings. While the Brook
lyn and Cincinnati Nationals and the
Cleveland and New York Americans
are losing. the New York and Pitts
burg Nationals and Chicago Ameri-
cans are proceeding at a pace that
promises q battle
The Brooklyn Nationals held on TO
first place only BY defeating Pitts
burg. Cincinnati failed at the bat IN
the New York series but took three
games from the tail-end Philadel-
phians- New York regained third
place by defeating Chicago. Boston
is getting good pitching but IS handl-
capped by light batting. St Louis
was unable to turn its numerous hits
into runs
In the American league, Cleveland
was forced to call frequently on Cove
leskie and Bagby, but the Indians
won only half OF their games. The
Yankee sluggers could do little
against Chicago. dropping three
games out OF four and were held even
by Detroit Chicago and Boston
