Judeans Statement .

In Monday mornings paper I read that both teams, the Judeans and the GEeeneville Independents, claim to have won the game played at Mohegan park Sunday afternoon. How can Greeneville have the right to claim the game when our team completely defeated them in front of 200 or more football fans by a score of IS to o? Your team having an average of 90 pounds on every one of our men but still at the end we defeated you and your team. You may have beaten us in another way but that was not a football game; that was a riot plan ned by your team in case of defeat and the fight was a ten to one man fight, your team having the advantage of having ten to our one man. We did not run; we stood there and fought and although beaten by your fists we won the football game played Sunday afternoon at Mohegan park with a clean team of football players.
 Yours truly,

CH1CAGo GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, Oct 11.-Chicago board of trade sentiment turned bullish today and net gains were registered by the entire list. Wheat finished 1-2 to cents higher; corn was up 1-4 to 2 5-S and oats 1 3-S to 1 3-4. Provisions gained from 1-2 tc IS points.
 Wheat started higher and after brief set back took definitely to the up grade Factors which might have been expect ed to encourage selling were ignored and the strength in northwestern markets and exapectation of a bullish government re- port within a few days on wheat stocks were chief factors in the advance A big Chicago interest was credited with pick ing up the early offerings through com mission houses and parade to the buy ing side resulted from this rumor
 Corn reflected the strength in wheat and had a small boom of it's own on im- proved export demand coupled with an- nouncement that Holland bought 400,- 900 bushels yesterday. Cash houses bought December to remove hedges against export sales. Oats trailed corn. Provisions were dull and moved in mar row limits but were firm throughout. Trade was mostly local

GETTING READY FOR THIRD CAME
 OF TAFTVILLE-k. OF C. SERIES

The third and deciding game of the Taftville-Kacey series will be played at the Fairgrounds Sunday, Aug. 18th and without a doubt this contest will eclipse anything seen in and around Norwich this year both in interest and fast baseball. This time both TaftvilIe and the Kaceys will draw from the big league players that everyone has read about. The names of the players have not been announced with the ex- ception of Denny Murphy a former Taftville lad now catching for Vtr- non of the Pacific Coast league. Murphy will do the receiving for Taft vile. Both teams are holding back with the object of springing q last minute surprise.
 The management is preparing for record breaking attendance, expecting to heavily from all the neighboring towns and cities. An important fact for the fans to remember is that the game will start at 2: 30 P NJ. instead of 3:15 as has been the custom. The reason for this is that it gets chilly late in the afternoon and also as the sun gets low in the west the grandstand casts a shadow over the diamond which makes it difficult for the players to sec the ball.
